Abstract:

The present disclosure concerns a process for fermenting a biomass with a reduced dose of a purified exogenous enzyme (which can be, for example a purified exogenous glucoamylase). The process comprises contacting a biomass (which may comprise starch) with a recombinant yeast host cell. The recombinant yeast host cell has a genetic modification for expressing a heterologous polypeptide having starch or dextrin hydrolase activity (which may be, for example, from a glucoamylase). The nucleic acid molecule encoding the heterologous polypeptide having starch or dextrin hydrolase activity comprises allowing the secretion of the heterologous polypeptide.

Abstract:

A portable antenna system including a reflector with a center axis, a feed at the center axis of the reflector, a post with a rotatable bracket on the post. The system also includes a skew drive mounted to the bracket and having a first output coupled to the reflector at the center axis thereof to adjust the skew angle of the reflector, an elevation motor configured to rotate the rotatable bracket to vary the elevation of the reflector, and an azimuth motor configured to rotate the post to vary the azimuth of the reflector.
