【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、セルロース生産用基質、その製造方法、該基質を用いたセルラーゼの製造方法、およびセルロースの分解または糖化方法に関する。
【０００２】
【従来技術】
セルラーゼは、セルロースを、グルコース、セロビオースやセロオリゴトースに加水分解する酵素反応系を触媒する酵素群の総称であり、その作用様式により、Ｃ１酵素（アビセラーゼ、セロビオヒドラーゼ、ＦＰアーゼ、エキソ−β−グルカナーゼ等とも呼称されている。）、Ｃｘ酵素（ＣＭＣアーゼ、エンド−β−グルカナーゼともいう。）およびβ−グルコシダーゼ（セロビアーゼともいう。）など種々の名称で呼ばれる酵素が存在する。セルラーゼはこれら酵素の相互作用により、セルロースを最終的にはグルコースまで分解する。
【０００３】
一方、近年、セルラーゼを用いてセルロース系バイオマス資源を酵素分解、糖化することにより構成単位であるグルコース、キシロースにし、更にこれを発酵して得られるエタノールや乳酸などを液体燃料もしくは化学原料として利用することが検討されている。
しかし、糖化に用いるセルラーゼの生産に用いる炭素源としては、安価なセルロース資源を用いることが好ましいが、安価に入手できるセルロース資源をそのまま用いたのでは十分な生産性が得られないという欠点があった。このため、従来より粉末セルロース等の純セルロースが基質として用いられているが、この方法はセルラーゼ生産性は高いものの、高価格であり、セルラーゼ生産コストの大部分を占めてしまうという難点があった。
安価なバイオマスの基質用の処理方法としては、例えば、バガスを苛性アルカリで蒸煮した後、次亜塩素酸系化合物で処理するセルラーゼ生産用基質の製造法（特公平５−３３９８４号公報）が報告されているが、国内で大量に排出され、入手が容易な古紙を、セルラーゼ生産用基質として有効に用いることができる技術は未だ見いだされていない。
【０００４】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】

【００１０】
本発明において、これらセルラーゼの製造あるいはセルロースの分解、糖化に使用するセルラーゼ生産菌は特に限定されず、従来、セルラーゼ生産菌として知られていた、トリコデルマ属、アスペルギルス属、スポロトリクム属、アクレモニウム属に属する微生物等が用いられるが、その中でもアクレモニウム属に属する微生物が好ましく、特に好ましいものはアクレモニウム・セルロティカス（Acremonium cellulolyticus）Ｃ１株（ＦＥＲＭ Ｐ−１８５０８）である。

On the other hand, in recent years, cellulosic biomass resources are enzymatically decomposed and saccharified to produce structural units such as glucose and xylose, which are further fermented to use ethanol, lactic acid, etc. as liquid fuels or chemical raw materials. It is being considered.
However, it is preferable to use an inexpensive cellulose resource as a carbon source used to produce cellulase used for saccharification, but there is a disadvantage that sufficient productivity cannot be obtained if a cellulose resource available at low cost is used as it is. It was. For this reason, pure cellulose such as powdered cellulose has been conventionally used as a substrate. However, this method has high cellulase productivity, but is expensive and occupies most of the cellulase production cost. .
As a processing method for an inexpensive biomass substrate, for example, a method for producing a substrate for cellulase production in which bagasse is steamed with caustic and then treated with a hypochlorous acid compound (Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-33984) is reported. However, no technology has yet been found that can effectively use used paper, which is discharged in large quantities in Japan and easily available, as a substrate for cellulase production.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and provides a means for effectively using waste paper that is discharged in a large amount and easily available as a substrate for cellulase production. Thus, it is intended to perform cellulase production and cellulose decomposition and saccharification at low cost and efficiently.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
As a result of diligent research to solve the above problems, the present inventor, when used paper was steamed with ferrous sulfate and cellulase-producing bacteria were cultured using this as a carbon source, the productivity of cellulase was remarkably improved. The present invention has been completed by finding that it can be produced inexpensively and efficiently, and that cellulose can be decomposed and saccharified inexpensively and efficiently.
[0006]
That is, the present invention relates to the following (1) to (8).

(7) The method according to (5), wherein the cellulase-producing bacterium is a microorganism belonging to the genus Acremonium.
(8) The method according to (7) , wherein the microorganism belonging to the genus Acremonium is Acremonium cellulolyticus C1 strain (FERM P-18508).
[0007]
The waste paper used in the present invention is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include office waste paper such as copy paper used in offices, corrugated waste paper, old newspaper and the like.
When manufacturing a substrate for cellulase production using waste paper, the waste paper is shredded or cut and steamed in a ferrous sulfate solution. At this time, pretreatment such as other chemical treatment or beating (refining) method, freeze pulverization, mechanical crushing treatment by a ball mill, a roll mill or the like is not particularly required, but the used paper used in the present invention is dried. This is particularly effective when the organic matter ratio is 90% or more, the lignin content is 20% or less, and the hemicellulose content is 20% or less on a weight basis. That is, when the lignin content is 20% or less and the hemicellulose content is 20% or less, the cellulose component increases, so that a cellulase production substrate can be obtained more efficiently.
[0008]
The used paper used in the present invention is preferably 30 mm × 100 mm or less by shredding or cutting. Moreover, the usage-amount of ferrous sulfate is 0.01 to 1 weight% with respect to a used paper, Preferably it is 0.05 to 1%. Specifically, a 0.001 to 0.5% aqueous solution of FeSO 4 · 7H 2 O is used as the ferrous sulfate solution, and waste paper is added to the aqueous solution in an amount of 2 to 20%, preferably 5 to 15%. . The cooking temperature is preferably 80 to 130 ° C.

After performing the steaming treatment at 125 ° C. for 1 minute or more, preferably 5 to 15 minutes, the cake is sufficiently washed with water to obtain a substrate for cellulase production.
The cellulase-producing substrate of the present invention is extremely good as a carbon source for cellulase-producing bacteria. By using the cellulase-producing substrate of the present invention, the cellulase-producing bacteria can produce cellulase in a large amount in a medium. Since the cellulase produced is highly active in all of FPase, CMCase and cellobiase, cellulase can be efficiently produced by culturing cellulase-producing bacteria using the cellulase-producing substrate of the present invention. The resulting cellulase can saccharify and decompose the cellulose raw material very effectively. Further, in the present invention, cellulose may be directly decomposed and saccharified by adding the above-mentioned cellulase production substrate or another cellulose raw material to the medium as a main carbon and culturing cellulase-producing bacteria in the medium. it can. Examples of other cellulose raw materials include bagasse, rice bran, rice husk or untreated waste paper.
[0010]
