Braz J Microbiol 2016; 47:680-90. [PMID: 27256169 PMCID: PMC4927647 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjm.2016.04.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2015] [Accepted: 02/20/2016] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
A new strain of Thermomyces lanuginosus was isolated from the Atlantic Forest biome, and its β-xylosidases optimization in response to agro-industrial residues was performed. Using statistical approach as a strategy for optimization, the induction of β-xylosidases activity was evaluated in residual corn straw, and improved so that the optimum condition achieved high β-xylosidases activities 1003 U/mL. According our known, this study is the first to show so high levels of β-xylosidases activities induction. In addition, the application of an experimental design with this microorganism to induce β-xylosidases has not been reported until the present work. The optimal conditions for the crude enzyme extract were pH 5.5 and 60 °C showing better thermostability at 55 °C. The saccharification ability of β-xylosidase in the presence of hemicellulose obtained from corn straw raw and xylan from beechwood substrates showed a xylo-oligosaccharide to xylose conversion yield of 80 and 50%, respectively, at 50 °C. Our data strongly indicated that the β-xylosidases activities was not subjected to the effects of potential enzyme inhibitors often produced during fermentation process. These data suggest the application of this enzyme studied for saccharification of hemicellulose, an abundant residue in the American continents, thus providing an interesting alternative for future tests for energy production.

Abstract
Research on regulation of cellulases and hemicellulases gene expression may be very useful for increasing the production of these enzymes in their native producers. Mechanisms of gene regulation of cellulase and hemicellulase expression in filamentous fungi have been studied, mainly in Aspergillus and Trichoderma. The production of these extracellular enzymes is an energy-consuming process, so the enzymes are produced only under conditions in which the fungus needs to use plant polymers as an energy and carbon source. Moreover, production of many of these enzymes is coordinately regulated, and induced in the presence of the substrate polymers. In addition to induction by mono- and oligo-saccharides, genes encoding hydrolytic enzymes involved in plant cell wall deconstruction in filamentous fungi can be repressed during growth in the presence of easily metabolizable carbon sources, such as glucose. Carbon catabolite repression is an important mechanism to repress the production of plant cell wall degrading enzymes during growth on preferred carbon sources. This manuscript reviews the recent advancements in elucidation of molecular mechanisms responsible for regulation of expression of cellulase and hemicellulase genes in fungi.

Abstract
In the present work, we investigated the antifungal activity of two de novo designed, antimicrobial peptides VS2 and VS3, incorporating unnatural amino acid α,β-dehydrophenylalanine (ΔPhe). We observed that the low-hemolytic peptides could irreversibly inhibit the growth of various Candida species and multidrug resistance strains at MIC(80) values ranging from 15.62 μM to 250 μM. Synergy experiments showed that MIC(80) of the peptides was drastically reduced in combination with an antifungal drug fluconazole. The dye PI uptake assay was used to demonstrate peptide induced cell membrane permeabilization. Intracellular localization of the FITC-labeled peptides in Candida albicans was studied by confocal microscopy and FACS. Killing kinetics, PI uptake assay, and the intracellular presence of FITC-peptides suggested that growth inhibition is not solely a consequence of increased membrane permeabilization. We showed that entry of the peptide in Candida cells resulted in accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) leading to cell necrosis. Morphological alteration in Candida cells caused by the peptides was visualized by electron microscopy. We propose that de novo designed VS2 and VS3 peptides have multiple detrimental effects on target fungi, which ultimately result in cell wall disruption and killing. Therefore, these peptides represent a good template for further design and development as antifungal agents.

Abstract
In this study, the ethanol production by the mesophilic fungus Neurospora crassa from BG was studied and optimized concerning the induction of lignocellulose degrading enzymes and the production phase as well. The production of cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes was studied under solid-state cultivation (SSC). SSC in a laboratory horizontal bioreactor using the optimized medium, WS and BG in the ratio 1:1 and initial moisture level 61.5%, allowed the large scale production of the multienzymatic system. Similar yields with those from flasks experiments, as high as 1073,56,4.2,1.6,3.1,5.7 and 0.52 U g(-1) carbon source of xylanase, endoglucanase, cellobiohydrolase, beta-glucosidase, alpha-l-arabinofuranosidase, acetyl esterase and feruloyl esterase, respectively, were obtained. Chromogenic (fluorogenic) 4-methylumbelliferyl substrates were used to characterize the major activities of the multienzyme component, after the separation by isoelectric focusing (IEF) electrophoresis. Alkali pre-treated BG was used for ethanol production. A yield of about 74 g of ethanol kg(-1) dry BG (5,6 g L(-1)) was obtained under optimum conditions (aeration 0.1 vvm, pre-treatment with 1g NaOH 10 g(-1)dry BG).

Abstract
Enzymatic hydrolysis of arabinoxylan is an important prerequisite for the utilization of hemicellulose for ethanol fermentation or for making the low calorie sweetener xylitol by catalytic hydrogenation of the generated xylose. This study focus on cloning and characterization of two industrial relevant beta-xylosidases (1,4-beta-D-xylan xylohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.37) from Talaromyces emersonii (betaXTE) and Trichoderma reesei (betaXTR) and a comparison of these in relation to hemicellulose hydrolysis using an industrial relevant substrate. Both beta-xylosidases were expressed in A. oryzae and subsequently purified. During the enzymatic hydrolysis of xylobiose, the reaction product of both enzymes was found to be beta-D-xylose proving that the hydrolysis is proceeding via a retaining reaction mechanism. Based on sequence similarities and glycosyl hydrolases family membership, the active site residues of betaXTE and betaXTR are predicted to be Asp 242 and Glu 441, and Asp 264 and Glu 464, respectively. The involvement in catalysis of these carboxyls was examined by modification using the carbodiimide-nucleophile procedure resulting in a complete inactivation of both enzymes. The degree of xylose release from vinasse, an ethanol fermentation by-product, by betaXTE and betaXTR was 12.1% and 7.7%, respectively. Using the beta-xylosidases in combination with the multicomponent enzyme product Ultraflo L, resulted in 41.9% and 40.8% release of xylose, respectively indicating a strong synergistic effect between the exo-acting beta-xylosidases and the endo-1,4-beta-xylanases and alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase in Ultraflo L. There seems to be no measurable differences between the two beta-xylosidases when used in this specific application despite the differences in specific activity and kinetic properties.

Abstract
Hemicellulose is one of the major forms of biomass in lignocellulose, and its essential component is xylan. We used a cell surface engineering system based on alpha-agglutinin to construct a Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strain codisplaying two types of xylan-degrading enzymes, namely, xylanase II (XYNII) from Trichoderma reesei QM9414 and beta-xylosidase (XylA) from Aspergillus oryzae NiaD300, on the cell surface. In a high-performance liquid chromatography analysis, xylose was detected as the main product of the yeast strain codisplaying XYNII and XylA, while xylobiose and xylotriose were detected as the main products of a yeast strain displaying XYNII on the cell surface. These results indicate that xylan is sequentially hydrolyzed to xylose by the codisplayed XYNII and XylA. In a further step toward achieving the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of xylan, a xylan-utilizing S. cerevisiae strain was constructed by codisplaying XYNII and XylA and introducing genes for xylose utilization, namely, those encoding xylose reductase and xylitol dehydrogenase from Pichia stipitis and xylulokinase from S. cerevisiae. After 62 h of fermentation, 7.1 g of ethanol per liter was directly produced from birchwood xylan, and the yield in terms of grams of ethanol per gram of carbohydrate consumed was 0.30 g/g. These results demonstrate that the direct conversion of xylan to ethanol is accomplished by the xylan-utilizing S. cerevisiae strain.

Abstract
The thermophilic fungus Scytalidium thermophilum produced large amounts of periplasmic beta- D-xylosidase activity when grown on xylan as carbon source. The presence of glucose in the fresh culture medium drastically reduced the level of beta- D-xylosidase activity, while cycloheximide prevented induction of the enzyme by xylan. The mycelial beta-xylosidase induced by xylan was purified using a procedure that included heating at 50 degrees C, ammonium sulfate fractioning (30-75%), and chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and DEAE-Sephadex A-50. The purified beta- D-xylosidase is a monomer with an estimated molecular mass of 45 kDa (SDS-PAGE) or 38 kDa (gel filtration). The enzyme is a neutral protein (pI 7.1), with a carbohydrate content of 12% and optima of temperature and pH of 60 degrees C and 5.0, respectively. beta- D-Xylosidase activity is strongly stimulated and protected against heat inactivation by calcium ions. In the absence of substrate, the enzyme is stable for 1 h at 60 degrees C and has half-lives of 11 and 30 min at 65 degrees C in the absence or presence of calcium, respectively. The purified beta- D-xylosidase hydrolyzed p-nitrophenol-beta- D-xylopyranoside and p-nitrophenol-beta- D-glucopyranoside, exhibiting apparent K(m) and V(max) values of 1.3 mM, 88 micromol min(-1) protein(-1) and 0.5 mM, 20 micromol min(-1) protein(-1), respectively. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed xylobiose, xylotriose, and xylotetraose, and is therefore a true beta- D-xylosidase. Enzyme activity was completely insensitive to xylose, which inhibits most beta-xylosidases, at concentrations up to 200 mM. Its thermal stability and high xylose tolerance qualify this enzyme for industrial applications. The high tolerance of S. thermophilum beta-xylosidase to xylose inhibition is a positive characteristic that distinguishes this enzyme from all others described in the literature.

Abstract
Hemicellulolytic microorganisms play a significant role in nature by recycling hemicellulose, one of the main components of plant polysaccharides. Xylanases (EC 3.2.1.8) catalyze the hydrolysis of xylan, the major constituent of hemicellulose. The use of these enzymes could greatly improve the overall economics of processing lignocellulosic materials for the generation of liquid fuels and chemicals. Recently cellulase-free xylanases have received great attention in the development of environmentally friendly technologies in the paper and pulp industry. In microorganisms that produce xylanases low molecular mass fragments of xylan and their positional isomers play a key role in regulating its biosynthesis. Xylanase and cellulase production appear to be regulated separately, although the pleiotropy of mutations, which causes the elimination of both genes, suggests some linkage in the synthesis of the two enzymes. Xylanases are found in a cornucopia of organisms and the genes encoding them have been cloned in homologous and heterologous hosts with the objectives of overproducing the enzyme and altering its properties to suit commercial applications. Sequence analyses of xylanases have revealed distinct catalytic and cellulose binding domains, with a separate non-catalytic domain that has been reported to confer enhanced thermostability in some xylanases. Analyses of three-dimensional structures and the properties of mutants have revealed the involvement of specific tyrosine and tryptophan residues in the substrate binding site and of glutamate and aspartate residues in the catalytic mechanism. Many lines of evidence suggest that xylanases operate via a double displacement mechanism in which the anomeric configuration is retained, although some of the enzymes catalyze single displacement reactions with inversion of configuration. Based on a dendrogram obtained from amino acid sequence similarities the evolutionary relationship between xylanases is assessed. In addition the properties of xylanases from extremophilic organisms have been evaluated in terms of biotechnological applications.

Abstract
The development of new analytical techniques and the commercial availability of new substrates have led to the purification and characterization of a large number of xylan-degrading enzymes. Furthermore, the introduction of recombinant DNA technology has resulted in the selection of xylanolytic enzymes that are more suitable for industrial applications. For a successful integration of xylanases in industrial processes, a detailed understanding of the mechanism of enzyme action is, however, required. This review gives an overview of various xylanolytic enzyme systems from bacteria and fungi that have been described recently in more detail.

Abstract
Phanerochaete chrysosporium is the best studied organism with respect to lignin degradation, but its degradation of the xylan component of lignocellulose is only now being studied. When grown on oat spelt xylan (mainly arabinoxylan), it produces an enzyme with beta-D-xylosidase and beta-D-glucosidase activity. This enzyme was purified by ultrafiltration followed by ammonium sulphate precipitation, anion-exchange chromatography using DEAE Biogel and Mono Q, and gel filtration using Superose 12. It is extracellular, with an apparent M(r) value of 44,500 as determined by SDS-PAGE; the pI is 4.67 and activity is maximal at pH 5 and 60 degrees C. The enzyme is of particular interest because its principal activity is against laminaribiose (3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-D-glucopyranose and laminarin [(1-->3)-beta-D-glucan with ca. 3% of beta-(1-->6) branches] rather than cellobiose and xylobiose. It was competitively inhibited by D-glucono-1,5-lactone and deoxynojirimycin; with p-nitrophenyl beta-D-xylopyranoside as substrate, the Ki values were 32 and 87.5 microM, respectively, and with p-nitrophenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside, they were 35 and 68.7 microM, respectively. The Km values with p-nitrophenyl beta-D-xylopyranoside and p-nitrophenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside as substrates were 3.51 and 5.30 mM, respectively.

Xylanase I is a nonglycosylated protein with an apparent molecular mass of 45 kDa. Xylanase II is a glycoprotein with an apparent molecular mass of 70 kDa. The pH optima of these enzymes were 5.5 and 6, respectively, and the temperature optimum was 55 degrees C for each enzyme. The endo mode of action of the enzymes was revealed by thin-layer chromatography of xylan hydrolysates. Antibodies raised against each purified protein exhibited no cross-reaction, confirming the biochemical specificities of the enzymes. Both enzymes exhibited carboxymethyl cellulase activity, and xylanase I was absorbed on crystalline cellulose, indicating that these enzymes might belong to the F family of beta-1,4-glycanases.

Abstract
During decaffeination of Coffee Processing Plant Solid Wastes (CPSW) by actinomycetes, Thermomonospora, Strain 29 exhibited high titers of cellulase and xylanase. This organism, originally isolated on soybean seed coat was grown in solid state fermentation on CPSW supplemented with mineral salts. Enzymes recovered were arabinosidase, xylanase, and beta-D-xylosidase. Higher activity of the former two enzymes was in the extracellular broth, whereas the beta-D-xylosidase activity was highest in the cell fraction. The enzymes were characterized after precipitation with (NH(4))(2)SO(4), dialysis, and gel filtration. Production of all three enzymes was inhibited by monomeric sugars and sugar alcohols but not by arabinoxylan, xylans, or xylan containing water insoluble carbohydrates. The optimum pH for the activity was 6.5, 7.0, and 7.5 for beta-xylosidase, xylanase and arabinosidase (alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase, alpha-arabinosidase, alpha-L-arabinosidase) respectively. These enzymes were stable in the pH range of 6.5 to 8.0. All three enzymes were thermostable up to 80 degrees C. At 55 degrees C, arabinosidase had the longest half life of 120 h. However, at 40 degrees C, xylanase had the longest half life (504 h). At either temperature, beta-D-xylosidase had the shortest half life. The molecular weights (kDa), and Kms (mM) were estimated to be 95, 0.27; 45, 12.4; and 106, 0.67 for arbinosidase, xylanase, and beta-xylosidase respectively. Step wise addition of the three enzymes showed higher saccharification of lignocellulosics.

Abstract
A highly thermostable beta-xylosidase, exhibiting similarly high activities for arylxylose and arylarabinose, was purified (72-fold) to gel electrophoretic homogeneity from the ethanologenic thermophilic anaerobe Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus. The isoelectric point is pH 4.6; the apparent molecular weight is around 165,000 for the native enzyme (gel filtration and gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) and 85,000 for the two subunits (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). The enzyme exhibited the highest affinity towards p-NO2-phenyl xyloside (pNPX) (substrate concentration for half-maximal activity = 0.018 mM at 82 degrees C and pH 5.0) but the highest specific activity with p-NO2-phenylarabinofuranoside. T(opt), 5 min, the temperature for the maximum initial activity in a 5-min assay of the purified enzyme, was observed around pH 5.9 and 93 degrees C; however at 65 and 82 degrees C, the pH optimum was 5.0 to 5.2, and at this pH the maximal initial activity was observed at 82 degrees C (pH 5.0 to 5.5). The pH curves and temperature curves for arylxylosides as substrates differed significantly from those for arylarabinosides as substrates. An incubation for 3 h at 82 degrees C in the absence of substrate reduced the activity to around 75%. At 86 degrees C the half-life was around 15 min. With pNPX as the substrate, an Arrhenius energy of 69 kJ/mol was determined. The N-terminal sequence did not reveal a high similarity to those from other published enzyme sequences.

Abstract
N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) completely inactivated xylanases from Chainia and alkalophilic and thermophilic (AT) Bacillus with a concomittant decrease in absorption at 280 nm and with second-order rate constants of 10,500 and 5000 M-1.min-1, respectively at pH 6.0 and 25 degrees C. The kinetic analysis of inactivation indicated that one and three tryptophan residues were essential for the xylanase activity from Chainia and Bacillus, respectively. The xylanases were also inhibited by 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzyl bromide (HNBB). The modification of cysteine residues by p-hydroxymercurybenzoate (PHMB) and N-ethylmaleimide did not cause a loss in activity of the xylanase from Bacillus, whereas that from Chainia was completely inactivated. The kinetics of inactivation revealed the involvement of one cysteine residue for xylanase from Chainia with a second-order rate constant of 50,000 M-1.min-1. The PHMB-modified enzyme failed to show the presence of titrable -SH groups. Xylan afforded complete protection against inactivation by NBS, HNBB and PHMB, indicating the involvement of tryptophan and cysteine residues at the substrate-binding region of the enzyme.
