Abstract
In recent years, the process of producing bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass through biorefining has become increasingly important. However, to obtain a high yield of ethanol, the complex structures in the feedstock must be broken down into simple sugars. A cost-effective and innovative method for achieving this is ionic liquid pre-treatment, which is widely used to efficiently hydrolyze the lignocellulosic material. The study aims to produce a significant profusion of bioethanol via catalytic hydrolysis of ionic liquid-treated lignocellulose biomass. The current study reports the purification of Streptomyces sp. MS2A cellulase via ultrafiltration and gel permeation chromatography. The kinetic parameters and the biochemical nature of the purified cellulase were analyzed for the effective breakdown of the EMIM[OAC] treated lignocellulose chain. The two-step cellulase purification resulted in 6.28 and 12.44 purification folds. The purified cellulase shows a Km value of 0.82 ± 0.21 mM, and a Vmax value of 85.59 ± 8.87 μmol min-1 mg-1 with the catalytic efficiency of 1.027 S-1. The thermodynamic parameters like ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG of the system were studied along with the thermal deactivation kinetics of cellulase. The optimal temperature and pH of the purified cellulase enzyme for hydrolysis was found to be 40 °C and 7. The rice husk and wheat husk used in this study were pretreated with the EMIM [OAC] ionic liquid and the change in the structure of lignocellulosic biomass was observed via HRSEM. The ionic liquid treated biomass showed the highest catalytic hydrolysis yield of 106.66 ± 0.19 mol/ml on the third day. The obtained glucose was fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae to yield 23.43 g of ethanol/l of glucose from the rice husk (RH) and 24.28 g of ethanol/l of glucose from the wheat husk (WH).

Abstract
Xylanase breaks xylan down to xylose, which is used in industries such as pulp and paper, food and feed, among others. The utilization of wastes for xylanase production is economical, hence this work aimed at producing xylanase through solid-state fermentation and characterizing the enzyme. Xylanase-producing strains of Bacillus megaterium and Aspergillus niger GIO were inoculated separately in a 5 and 10 day solid fermentation study on maize straw, rice straw, sawdust, corn cob, sugarcane bagasse, conifer litters, alkaline-pretreated maize straw (APM) and combined alkaline and biological-pretreated maize straw, respectively. The best substrate was selected for xylanase production. The crude enzyme was extracted from the fermentation medium and xylanase activity was characterized using parameters such as temperature, cations, pH and surfactants. Among different substrates, the highest xylanase activity of 3.18 U ml-1 was recorded when A. niger GIO was grown on APM. The xylanase produced by A. niger GIO and B. megaterium had the highest activities (3.67 U ml-1 and 3.36 U ml-1) at 40 °C after 30 and 45 min of incubation, respectively. Optimal xylanase activities (4.58 and 3.58 U ml-1) of A. niger GIO and B. megaterium , respectively, were observed at pH 5.0 and 6.2. All cations used enhanced xylanase activities except magnesium ion. Sodium dodecyl sulfate supported the highest xylanase activity of 6.13 and 6.90 U ml-1 for A. niger GIO and B. megaterium , respectively. High yields of xylanase were obtained from A. niger GIO and B. megaterium cultivated on APM. The xylanase activities were affected by pH, temperature, surfactants and cations.

TtCel7A: A Native Thermophilic Bifunctional Cellulose/Xylanase Exogluclanase from the Thermophilic Biomass-Degrading Fungus Thielavia terrestris Co3Bag1, and Its Application in Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Agroindustrial Derivatives. J Fungi (Basel) 2023; 9:jof9020152.

Abstract
The biomass-degrading thermophilic ascomycete fungus Thielavia terrestris Co3Bag1 produces TtCel7A, a native bifunctional cellulase/xylanase GH7 family. The purified TtCel7A, with an estimated molecular weight of 71 kDa, was biochemically characterized. TtCel7A displayed an optimal pH of 5.5 for both activities and an optimal temperature of 60 and 50 °C for cellulolytic and xylanolytic activities, respectively. The half-lives determined for cellulase activity were 140, 106, and 41 min at 50, 60, and 70 °C, respectively, whereas the half-lives observed for xylanase activity were 24, 10, and 1.4 h at 50, 60, and 70 °C, respectively. The KM and Vmax values were 3.12 mg/mL and 50 U/mg for cellulase activity and 0.17 mg/mL and 42.75 U/mg for xylanase activity. Circular dichroism analysis suggests changes in the secondary structure of TtCel7A in the presence of CMC as the substrate, whereas no modifications were observed with beechwood xylan. TtCel7A displayed the excellent capability to hydrolyze CMC, beechwood xylan, and complex substrates such as oat bran, wheat bran, and sugarcane bagasse, with glucose and cellobiose being the main products released; also, slightly less endo cellulase and xylanase activities were observed. Thus, suggesting TtCel7A has an exo- and endomode of action. Based on the characteristics of the enzyme, it might be considered a good candidate for industrial applications.

Abstract
Some enzymes can catalyze more than one chemical conversion for which they are physiologically specialized. This secondary function, which is called underground, promiscuous, metabolism, or cross activity, is recognized as a valuable feature and has received much attention for developing new catalytic functions in industrial applications. In this study, a novel bifunctional xylanase/β-glucosidase metagenomic-derived enzyme, PersiBGLXyn1, with underground β-glucosidase activity was mined by in-silico screening. Then, the corresponding gene was cloned, expressed and purified. The PersiBGLXyn1 improved the degradation efficiency of organic solvent pretreated coffee residue waste (CRW), and subsequently the production of bioethanol during a separate enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) process. After characterization, the enzyme was immobilized on a nanocellulose (NC) carrier generated from sugar beet pulp (SBP), which remarkably improved the underground activity of the enzyme up to four-fold at 80°C and up to two-fold at pH 4.0 compared to the free one. The immobilized PersiBGLXyn1 demonstrated 12 to 13-fold rise in half-life at 70 and 80°C for its underground activity. The amount of reducing sugar produced from enzymatic saccharification of the CRW was also enhanced from 12.97 g/l to 19.69 g/l by immobilization of the enzyme. Bioethanol production was 29.31 g/l for free enzyme after 72 h fermentation, while the immobilized PersiBGLXyn1 showed 51.47 g/l production titre. Overall, this study presented a cost-effective in-silico metagenomic approach to identify novel bifunctional xylanase/β-glucosidase enzyme with underground β-glucosidase activity. It also demonstrated the improved efficacy of the underground activities of the bifunctional enzyme as a promising alternative for fermentable sugars production and subsequent value-added products.

Abstract
Twenty-one strains of termite-associated actinomycetes were tested for their activities against three bacteria. The results showed that nine strains showed bacteriostatic activities against at least one tested bacterium, and the actinomycete YH01, which was isolated from the body surface of the queen of Odontotermes formosanus, had potent antibacterial activity. The YH01 was further identified as Streptomyces davaonensis. Two metabolites roseoflavin (1) and 8-methylamino-8-demethyl-d-riboflavin (2) were isolated and purified from S. davaonensis YH01. Their structures were determined by NMR, MS, and the related literature. The metabolite 1 showed strong inhibition activities against Bacillus subtilis (MIC = 1.56 μg/mL) and Staphylococcus aureus (MIC = 3.125 μg/mL), which were comparable to referenced gentamycin sulfate, with MIC values of 1.56 and 1.56 μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the anti-MRSA potential of compound 1 was determined against nine kinds of MRSA strains, with inhibition zones in the ranges of 12.7-19.7 mm under a concentration of 15 μg/6 mm discs and 18.3-22.7 mm under a concentration of 30 μg/6 mm discs. However, metabolite 1 had no inhibitory effect on Gram-negative bacteria. These results suggested that roseoflavin produced by YH01 holds promise for use against Gram-positive bacteria, especially to MRSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paromomycin is a 2-deoxystreptamine aminocyclitol aminoglycoside antibiotic with broad spectrum activity against Gram-negative, Gram-positive bacteria and many protozoa. This study introduces a strategy for paromomycin production through solid-state fermentation using Streptomyces rimosus subsp. paromomycinus NRRL 2455. Solid state fermentation has gained enormous attention in the development of several products because of their numerous advantages over submerged liquid fermentation. After selecting the best solid substrate, a time course study of paromomycin production was carried out followed by optimization of environmental conditions using response surface methodology. Paromomycin yields obtained using this technique were also compared to those obtained using submerged liquid fermentation. RESULTS Upon screening of 6 different substrates, maximum paromomycin concentration (0.51 mg/g initial dry solids) was obtained with the cost-effective agro-industrial byproduct, corn bran, impregnated with aminoglycoside production media. Optimization of environmental conditions using D-optimal design yielded a 4.3-fold enhancement in paromomycin concentration reaching 2.21 mg/g initial dry solids at a pH of 8.5, inoculum size of 5% v/w and a temperature of 30 °C. CONCLUSION Compared to submerged liquid fermentation, solid state fermentation resulted in comparable paromomycin concentrations, cost reduction of raw materials, less energy consumption and waste water discharge, which have major implications in industrial fermentation. Therefore, solid state fermentation is a promising alternative to submerged liquid fermentation for paromomycin production. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the optimized paromomycin production through solid state fermentation process.

Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are essential in healthy diets and their production is extremely important. Natural sources of PUFAs includes animal and aquatic products such as marine fish oil, however there are several limitations such as the decrease of fish stocks throughout the world. Thus, microbial oils are a preferable source of PUFAs. Herein, it was studied the production of PUFAs by Mortierella alpina under solid-state fermentation (SSF) using polyurethane foam as inert substrate and synthetic medium or lignocellulosic hydrolysate as source of C, N, and other nutrients. Several parameters of fermentation conditions were evaluated as carbon source, inductors addition, ratio C/N and temperature. The highest amount of total PUFAs per mass of solid (535.41 ± 24.12 mg/g), linoleic acid (129.66 ± 5.84 mg/g), and α-linoleic acid (401.93 ± 18.10 mg/g) were produced when the culture medium contained 20 g/L glucose, 10% (w/v) linseed oil, the C/N ratio was adjusted to 25 and the incubation temperature was 25°C for 3 days decreasing to 16°C on the remaining 4 days of fermentation. In addition, a hemicellulosic hydrolysate can be used as low-cost substrate to produce PUFAs, although the production was lower than the achieved with synthetic medium. SSF showed an interesting technology for microbial PUFAs production.

Abstract
Aiming at revealing the possible mechanism of its growth promoting effect on tomato, the correlations among Streptomyces sp. TOR3209 inoculation, rhizobacteriome, and tomato growth/production traits were investigated in this study. By analyses of Illumina sequencing and plate coating, differences in rhizosphere microbial communities were found in different growth stages and distinct inoculation treatments. The plant biomass/fruit yields and relative abundances of families Flavobacteriaceae, Sphingobacteriaceae, Polyangiaceae and Enterobacteriaceae in treatments T (tomato inoculated with TOR3209) and TF (tomato inoculated with TOR3209 + organic fertilizer) were higher than that in the controls (CK and CK+ organic fertilizer), respectively. The analysis of Metastats and LEfSe revealed that the genera Flavobacterium and Sorangium in seedling stage, Klebsiella in flowering stage, Collimonas in early fruit setting stage, and genera Micrococcaceae, Pontibacte and Adhaeribacter in late fruit setting stage were the most representative rhizobacteria that positively responded to TOR3209 inoculation. By cultivation method, five bacterial strains positively correlated to TOR3209 inoculation were isolated from rhizosphere and root endosphere, which were identified as tomato growth promoters affiliated to Enterobacter sp., Arthrobacter sp., Bacillus subtilis, Rhizobium sp. and Bacillus velezensis. In pot experiment, TOR3209 and B. velezensis WSW007 showed joint promotion to tomato production, while the abundance of inoculated TOR3209 was dramatically decreased in rhizosphere along the growth of tomato. Conclusively, TOR3209 might promote the tomato production via changing of microbial community in rhizosphere. These findings provide a better understanding of the interactions among PGPR in plant promotion.

Minimizing Ochratoxin A Contamination through the Use of Actinobacteria and Their Active Molecules. Toxins (Basel) 2020; 12:toxins12050296.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a secondary metabolite produced by fungal pathogens such as Penicilliumverrucosum, which develops in food commodities during storage such as cereals, grapes, and coffee. It represents public health concerns due to its genotoxicity, carcinogenicity, and teratogenicity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of actinobacteria and their metabolites to degrade OTA and/or to decrease its production. Sixty strains of actinobacteria were tested for their ability to prevent OTA formation by in vitro dual culture assays or with cell free extracts (CFEs). In dual culture, 17 strains strongly inhibited fungal growth, although it was generally associated with an increase in OTA specific production. Seventeen strains inhibited OTA specific production up to 4% of the control. Eleven actinobacteria CFEs reduced OTA specific production up to 62% of the control, while no substantial growth inhibition was observed except for two strains up to 72% of the control. Thirty-three strains were able to degrade OTA almost completely in liquid medium whereas only five were able to decrease it on solid medium, and two of them reduced OTA to an undetectable amount. Our results suggest that OTA decrease could be related to different strategies of degradation/metabolization by actinobacteria, through enzyme activities and secretion of secondary metabolites interfering with the OTA biosynthetic pathway. CFEs appeared to be ineffective at degrading OTA, raising interesting questions about the detoxification mechanisms. Common degradation by-products (e.g., OTα or L-β-phenylalanine) were searched by HPLC-MS/MS, however, none of them were found, which implies a different mechanism of detoxification and/or a subsequent degradation into unknown products.
