A down-regulated cytochrome P450 in Neoseiulus barkeri Hughes (Acari: Phytoseiidae) can dechlorinate and hydroxylate chlorpyrifos without producing chlorpyrifos-oxon.

Abstract
Selection of chemical-resistant predatory mites is a good alternative to balance the contradiction between chemical control and biological control. Previously, a resistant strain of Neoseiulus barkeri for chlorpyrifos was obtained. In the current study, two up-regulated (NbCYP3A6, NbCYP3A16) and one down-regulated (NbCYP3A24) P450s were screened through differential expression analysis and other detoxification-related genes such as CCEs, GST, etc. were not found. 3D modelling and molecular docking indicated that the chlorine at position 5 on the pyridine ring of chlorpyrifos, as well as a methyl group, were closest to the heme iron of the enzymes (less than 5 Å). Three active recombinant P450 proteins were heterologously expressed and metabolized with chlorpyrifos in vitro. HPLC assay showed that only NbCYP3A24 could metabolize chlorpyrifos, with a metabolism rate of 21.60 %. Analysis of the m/z of metabolites by LC-MS/MS showed that chlorine at the 5C position of chlorpyrifos was stripped and hydroxylated, whereas chlorpyrifos-oxon, a common product of oxidation by P450, was not found. Knockdown of the NbCYP3A24 gene in the susceptiblestrain did reduce the susceptibility of N. barkeri to chlorpyrifos, suggesting that the biological activity of the metabolite may be similar to chlorpyrifos-oxon, thus enhancing the inhibitory effect on the target.

Abstract
Iron determines the abundance and diversity of life and controls primary production in numerous aqueous environments. Over the past decades, the availability of this metal in natural waters has decreased. Iron deficiency can apply a selective pressure on microbial aquatic communities. Each aquatic organism has their individual requirements for iron and pathways for metal acquisition, despite all having access to the common pool of iron. Cyanobacteria, a photosynthesizing bacterium that can accumulate and form so-called 'algal blooms', have evolved strategies to thrive in such iron-deficient aqueous environments where they can outcompete other organisms in iron acquisition in diverse microbial communities. Metabolic pathways for iron acquisition employed by cyanobacteria allow it to compete successfully for this essential nutrient. By competing more effectively for requisite iron, cyanobacteria can displace other species and grow to dominate the microbial population in a bloom. Aquatic resources are damaged by a diverse number of environmental pollutants that can further decrease metal availability and result in a functional deficiency of available iron. Pollutants can also increase iron demand. A pollutant-exposed microbe is compelled to acquire further metal critical to its survival. Even in pollutant-impacted waters, cyanobacteria enjoy a competitive advantage and cyanobacterial dominance can be the result. We propose that cyanobacteria have a distinct competitive advantage over many other aquatic microbes in polluted, iron-poor environments.

Abstract
Remediation of hydrocarbon contaminations requires much attention nowadays since it causes detrimental effects on land and even worse impacts on aquatic environments. Tools of bioremediation especially filamentous fungi permissible for cleaning up as much as conceivable, at least they turn into non-toxic residues with less consumed periods. Inorganic chemicals, CO2, H2O, and cell biomass are produced as a result of the breakdown and mineralization of petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants. This paper presents a detailed overview of three strategic rules of filamentous fungi in remediating the various aliphatic, and aromatic hydrocarbon compounds: utilizing carbons from hydrocarbons as sole energy, Co-metabolism manners (Enzymatic and Non-enzymatic theories), and Biosorption approaches. Upliftment in the degradation rate of complex hydrocarbon by the Filamentous Fungi in consortia scenario we can say, "Fungal Talk", which includes a variety of cellular mechanisms, including biosurfactant production, biomineralization, and precipitation, etc., This review not only displays its efficiency but showcases the field applications - cost-effective, reliable, eco-friendly, easy to culture as biomass, applicable in both land and any water bodies in operational environment cleanups. Nevertheless, the potentiality of fungi-human interaction has not been fully understood, henceforth further studies are highly endorsed with spore pathogenicity of the fungal species capable of high remediation rate, and the gene knockout study, if the specific peptides cause toxicity to any living matters via Genomics and Proteomics approaches, before application of any in situ or ex situ environments.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450s (Cyt P450s) and peroxidases are enzymes featuring iron heme cofactors that have wide applicability as biocatalysts in chemical syntheses. Cyt P450s are a family of monooxygenases that oxidize fatty acids, steroids, and xenobiotics, synthesize hormones, and convert drugs and other chemicals to metabolites. Peroxidases are involved in breaking down hydrogen peroxide and can oxidize organic compounds during this process. Both heme-containing enzymes utilize active FeIVO intermediates to oxidize reactants. By incorporating these enzymes in stable thin films on electrodes, Cyt P450s and peroxidases can accept electrons from an electrode, albeit by different mechanisms, and catalyze organic transformations in a feasible and cost-effective way. This is an advantageous approach, often called bioelectrocatalysis, compared to their biological pathways in solution that require expensive biochemical reductants such as NADPH or additional enzymes to recycle NADPH for Cyt P450s. Bioelectrocatalysis also serves as an ex situ platform to investigate metabolism of drugs and bio-relevant chemicals. In this paper we review biocatalytic electrochemical reactions using Cyt P450s including C-H activation, S-oxidation, epoxidation, N-hydroxylation, and oxidative N-, and O-dealkylation; as well as reactions catalyzed by peroxidases including synthetically important oxidations of organic compounds. Design aspects of these bioelectrocatalytic reactions are presented and discussed, including enzyme film formation on electrodes, temperature, pH, solvents, and activation of the enzymes. Finally, we discuss challenges and future perspective of these two important bioelectrocatalytic systems.

Abstract
This review presents a comprehensive summary of the latest research in the field of bioremediation with filamentous fungi. The main focus is on the issue of recent progress in remediation of pharmaceutical compounds, heavy metal treatment and oil hydrocarbons mycoremediation that are usually insufficiently represented in other reviews. It encompasses a variety of cellular mechanisms involved in bioremediation used by filamentous fungi, including bio-adsorption, bio-surfactant production, bio-mineralization, bio-precipitation, as well as extracellular and intracellular enzymatic processes. Processes for wastewater treatment accomplished through physical, biological, and chemical processes are briefly described. The species diversity of filamentous fungi used in pollutant removal, including widely studied species of Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, Verticillium, Phanerochaete and other species of Basidiomycota and Zygomycota are summarized. The removal efficiency of filamentous fungi and time of elimination of a wide variety of pollutant compounds and their easy handling make them excellent tools for the bioremediation of emerging contaminants. Various types of beneficial byproducts made by filamentous fungi, such as raw material for feed and food production, chitosan, ethanol, lignocellulolytic enzymes, organic acids, as well as nanoparticles, are discussed. Finally, challenges faced, future prospects, and how innovative technologies can be used to further exploit and enhance the abilities of fungi in wastewater remediation, are mentioned.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 family 1 enzymes (CYP1s) are a diverse family of hemoprotein monooxygenases, which metabolize many xenobiotics including numerous environmental carcinogens. However, their historical function and evolution remain largely unstudied. Here we investigate CYP1 evolution via the reconstruction and characterization of the vertebrate CYP1 ancestors. Younger ancestors and extant forms generally demonstrated higher activity toward typical CYP1 xenobiotic and steroid substrates than older ancestors, suggesting significant diversification away from the original CYP1 function. Caffeine metabolism appears to be a recently evolved trait of the CYP1A subfamily, observed in the mammalian CYP1A lineage, and may parallel the recent evolution of caffeine synthesis in multiple separate plant species. Likewise, the aryl hydrocarbon receptor agonist, 6-formylindolo[3,2-b]carbazole (FICZ) was metabolized to a greater extent by certain younger ancestors and extant forms, suggesting that activity toward FICZ increased in specific CYP1 evolutionary branches, a process that may have occurred in parallel to the exploitation of land where UV-exposure was higher than in aquatic environments. As observed with previous reconstructions of P450 enzymes, thermostability correlated with evolutionary age; the oldest ancestor was up to 35 °C more thermostable than the extant forms, with a 10T50 (temperature at which 50% of the hemoprotein remains intact after 10 min) of 71 °C. This robustness may have facilitated evolutionary diversification of the CYP1s by buffering the destabilizing effects of mutations that conferred novel functions, a phenomenon which may also be useful in exploiting the catalytic versatility of these ancestral enzymes for commercial application as biocatalysts.

Abstract
Hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs) are widely used brominated flame retardants that cause antidiuretic hormone syndrome and even induce cancer. However, little information is available about the degradation mechanisms of HBCDs. In this study, genomic and proteomic analyses, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR, and gene knockout assays reveal that a cytochrome P450-encoding gene is responsible for HBCD catabolism in Pseudomonas aeruginosa HS9. The CO difference spectrum of the enzyme CYP168A1 was matched to P450 characteristics via UV visibility. We demonstrate that the reactions of debromination and hydrogenation are carried out one after another based on detection of the metabolites pentabromocyclododecanols (PBCDOHs), tetrabromocyclododecadiols (TBCDDOHs), and bromide ion. In the 18O isotope experiments, PBCD18OHs were only detected in the H218O group, proving that the added oxygen is derived from H2O, not from O2. This study elucidates the degradation mechanism of HBCDs by Pseudomonas. IMPORTANCE Hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs) are environmental pollutants that are widely used in industry. In this study, we identified and characterized a novel key dehalogenase, CYP168A1, that is responsible for HBCD degradation from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain HS9. This study provides new insights into understanding biodegradation of HBCDs.

Abstract
Nowadays, pollution of the environment is a huge problem for humans and other organisms' health. Conventional methods of pollutant removal like membrane filtration or ion exchange are not efficient enough to lower the number of pollutants to standard levels. Biological methods, because of their higher efficiency and biocompatibility, are preferred for the remediation of pollutants. These cost-effective and environment-friendly methods of reducing pollutants are called bioremediation. In bioremediation methods, enzymes play the most crucial role. Enzymes can remedy different types of organic and inorganic pollutants, including PAHs, azo dyes, polymers, organocyanides, lead, chromium, and mercury. Different enzymes isolated from various species have been used for the bioremediation of pollutants. Discovering new enzymes and new subtypes with specific physicochemical characteristics would be a promising way to find more efficient and cost-effective tools for the remediation of pollutants.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) are crucial for metabolizing dioxin compounds such as 1,2,3,7,8-pentachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (PeCDD). Here we have applied molecular dynamic simulations (MD), quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics methods (QM/MM) and density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the metabolic activation and transformation of PeCDD catalyzed by CYP1A1. Our QM/MM calculations highlight that PeCDD can be activated by P450s through the well-known electrophilic addition mechanism with an average energy barrier of 20.9 kcal/mol. Based on the results of previous experimental studies, further conversions of ketone products and epoxidation products that are mediated by P450 enzymes were investigated through DFT calculations. Analysis of the structures via the noncovalent interactions (NCI) method and the distortion-interaction model suggests that amino acids Ser122, Ala317, Ile386 and Leu496 play important roles in the metabolic process.

Abstract
Flavin containing monooxygenases (FMOs) represent one of the predominant types of phase I drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs), and thus play an important role in the metabolism of xeno- and endobiotics for the generation of their corresponding oxides. These oxides often display biological activities, however they are difficult to study since their chemical or biological synthesis is generally challenging even though only small amounts are required to evaluate their efficacy and safety. Previously, we constructed a DME expression system for cytochrome P450, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT), and sulfotransferase (SULT) using yeast cells, and successfully produced xenobiotic metabolites in a whole-cell dependent manner. In this study, we developed a heterologous expression system for human FMOs, including FMO1-FMO5, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and examined its N- and S-oxide productivity. The recombinant yeast cells expressed each of the FMO successfully, and the FMO4 transformant produced N- and S-oxide metabolites at several milligrams per liter within 24 h. This whole-cell dependent biosynthesis enabled the production of N- and S-oxides without the use of the expensive cofactor NADPH. Such novel yeast expression system could be a powerful tool for the production of oxide metabolites.

Abstract
Cytosolic sulfotransferases (SULTs), one of the predominant phase II drug metabolizing enzymes (DME), play important roles in metabolism of xeno- and endobiotics to generate their sulfo-conjugates. These sulfo-conjugates often have biological activities but are difficult to study, because even though only small amounts are required to evaluate their efficacy and safety, chemical or biological synthesis of sulfo-conjugatesis is often challenging. Previously, we constructed a DME expression system for cytochrome P450 and UGT, using yeast cells, and successfully produced xenobiotic metabolites in a whole-cell-dependent manner. In this study, we developed a yeast expression system for human SULTs, including SULT1A1, 1A3, 1B1, 1C4, 1E1, and 2A1, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and examined its sulfo-conjugate productivity. The recombinant yeast cells expressing each of the SULTs successfully produced several hundred milligram per liter of xeno- or endobioticsulfo-conjugates within 6 h. This whole-cell-dependent biosynthesis enabled us to produce sulfo-conjugates without the use of 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate, an expensive cofactor. Additionally, the production of regiospecific sulfo-conjugates of several polyphenols was possible with this method, making this novel yeast expression system a powerful tool for uncovering the metabolic pathways and biological actions of sulfo-conjugates.

Abstract
Increasing the efficiency of the conversion of light energy to products by photosynthesis represents a grand challenge in biotechnology. Photosynthesis is limited by the carbon-fixing enzyme Rubisco resulting in much of the absorbed energy being wasted as heat or fluorescence or lost as excess reductant via alternative electron dissipation pathways. To harness this wasted reductant, we engineered the model cyanobacterium Synechococcus PCC 7002 to express the mammalian cytochrome P450 CYP1A1 to serve as an artificial electron sink for excess electrons derived from light-catalyzed water-splitting. This improved photosynthetic efficiency by increasing the maximum rate of photosynthetic electron flow by 31.3%. A simple fluorescent assay for CYP1A1 activity demonstrated that the P450 was functional in the absence of its native reductase, that activity was light-dependent and scaled with irradiance. We show for the first time in live cells that photosynthetic reductant can be redirected to power a heterologous cytochrome P450. Furthermore, Synechococcus PCC 7002 expressing CYP1A1 degraded the herbicide atrazine, which is a widespread environmental pollutant.

Abstract
Bioremediation refers to cost-effective and environment-friendly method for converting the toxic, recalcitrant pollutants into environmentally benign products through the action of various biological treatments. Fungi play a major role in bioremediation owing to their robust morphology and diverse metabolic capacity. The review focuses on different fungal groups from a variety of habitats with their role in bioremediation of different toxic and recalcitrant compounds; persistent organic pollutants, textile dyes, effluents from textile, bleached kraft pulp, leather tanning industries, petroleum, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, pharmaceuticals and personal care products, and pesticides. Bioremediation of toxic organics by fungi is the most sustainable and green route for cleanup of contaminated sites and we discuss the multiple modes employed by fungi for detoxification of different toxic and recalcitrant compounds including prominent fungal enzymes viz., catalases, laccases, peroxidases and cyrochrome P450 monooxygeneses. We have also discussed the recent advances in enzyme engineering and genomics and research being carried out to trace the less understood bioremediation pathways.

Abstract
Chronic disease has increased in the past several decades, and environmental pollutants have been implicated. The magnitude and variety of diseases may indicate the malfunctioning of some basic mechanisms underlying human health. Environmental pollutants demonstrate a capability to complex iron through electronegative functional groups containing oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur. Cellular exposure to the chemical or its metabolite may cause a loss of requisite functional iron from intracellular sites. The cell is compelled to acquire further iron critical to its survival by activation of iron-responsive proteins and increasing iron import. Iron homeostasis in the exposed cells is altered due to a new equilibrium being established between iron-requiring cells and the inappropriate chelator (the pollutant or its catabolite). Following exposure to environmental pollutants, the perturbation of functional iron homeostasis may be the mechanism leading to adverse biological effects. Understanding the mechanism may lead to intervention methods for this major public health concern.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) are environmentally friendly biocatalysts that catalyze diverse chemical reactions using molecular oxygen under mild reaction conditions. P450s are activated upon receiving electrons from specific redox partner proteins, although the redox partners for most bacterial/archaeal P450s are not yet identified. Thus, it is important to establish a variety of efficient and versatile electron transfer systems from NAD(P)H to P450s for the design of biocatalysts. Sulfolobus solfataricus possesses a heterotrimeric proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Fusion of the PCNA subunits to S. acidocaldarius P450 (CYP119) and the Pseudomonas putida redox proteins, putidaredoxin (PdX) and putidaredoxin reductase (PdR), yielded a selective protein complex containing one molecule each of the three proteins. The PCNA-mediated heterotrimerization of CYP119, PdX, and PdR enhanced the CYP119 activity, likely as a result of high local concentrations of the two redox proteins toward CYP119. Therefore, the PCNA-mediated formation of the complex containing PdX and PdR might be applicable for harnessing the utility of P450s whose redox partners are not yet identified.
