Abstract
Streptomyces genera serve as adaptable cell factories for secondary metabolites with various and distinctive chemical structures that are relevant to the pharmaceutical industry. Streptomyces' complex life cycle necessitated a variety of tactics to enhance metabolite production. Identification of metabolic pathways, secondary metabolite clusters, and their controls have all been accomplished using genomic methods. Besides this, bioprocess parameters were also optimized for the regulation of morphology. Kinase families were identified as key checkpoints in the metabolic manipulation (DivIVA, Scy, FilP, matAB, and AfsK) and morphology engineering of Streptomyces. This review illustrates the role of different physiological variables during fermentation in the bioeconomy coupled with genome-based molecular characterization of biomolecules responsible for secondary metabolite production at different developmental stages of the Streptomyces life cycle.

Morphology engineering for novel antibiotics: Effect of glass microparticles and soy lecithin on rebeccamycin production and cellular morphology of filamentous actinomycete Lentzea aerocolonigenes. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1171055. [PMID: 37091334 PMCID: PMC10116066 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1171055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Lentzea aerocolonigenes, as an actinomycete, is a natural producer of the antibiotic and antitumoral drug rebeccamycin. Due to the filamentous cellular morphology handling in cultivations is challenging; therefore, morphology engineering techniques are mandatory to enhance productivity. One promising approach described in the literature is the addition of mineral particles in the micrometer range to precisely adjust cellular morphology and the corresponding product synthesis (microparticle-enhanced cultivation, MPEC). Glass microparticles are introduced in this study as a novel supplementation type for bioprocess intensification in filamentous organisms. Several investigations were conducted to screen for an optimal particle setup, including particle size and concentration regarding their impact and effects on enhanced productivity, microparticle incorporation behavior into the biopellets, the viability of pellets, and morphological changes. Glass microparticles (10 g·L-1) with a median diameter of 7.9 µm, for instance, induced an up to fourfold increase in product synthesis accompanied by overall enhanced viability of biomass. Furthermore, structural elucidations showed that biopellets isolated from MPEC tend to have lower hyphal density than unsupplemented control pellets. In this context, oxygen microprofiling was conducted to better understand how internal structural changes interwind with oxygen supply into the pellets. Here, the resulting oxygen profiles are of a contradictive trend of steeper oxygen consumption with increasing glass microparticle supplementation. Eventually, MPEC was combined with another promising cultivation strategy, the supplementation of soy lecithin (7.5 g·L-1), to further increase the cultivation performance. A combination of both techniques in an optimized setup resulted in a rebeccamycin concentration of 213 mg·L-1 after 10 days of cultivation, the highest value published so far for microparticle-supplemented shake flask cultivations of L. aerocolonigenes.

Effect of Microparticles on Fungal Fermentation for Fermentation-Based Product Productions. Processes (Basel) 2022.

Abstract
Ranging from simple food ingredients to complex pharmaceuticals, value-added products via microbial fermentation have many advantages over their chemically synthesized alternatives. Some of such advantages are environment-friendly production pathways, more specificity in the case of enzymes as compared to the chemical catalysts and reduction of harmful chemicals, such as heavy metals or strong acids and bases. Fungal fermentation systems include yeast and filamentous fungal cells based on cell morphology and culture conditions. However, filamentous fungal fermentation has gained attention in the past few decades because of the diversity of microbial products and robust production of some of the most value-added commodities. This type of fungal fermentation is usually carried out by solid-state fermentation. However, solid-state fermentation poses problems during the scale-up for industrial production. Therefore, submerged fermentation for value-added products is usually preferred for scaling-up purposes. The main problem with submerged fungal fermentation is the formation of complex mycelial clumps or pellets. The formation of such pellets increases the viscosity of the media and hinders the efficient transfer of oxygen and nutrient resources in the liquid phase. The cells at the center of the clump or pellet start to die because of a shortage of resources and, thus, productivity decreases substantially. To overcome this problem, various morphological engineering techniques are being researched. One approach is the use of microparticles. Microparticles are inert particles with various size ranges that are used in fermentation. These microparticles are shown to have positive effects, such as high enzyme productivity or smaller pellets with fungal fermentation. Therefore, this review provides a background about the types of microparticles and summarizes some of the recent studies with special emphasis on the fungal morphology changes and microparticle types along with the applications of microparticles in filamentous fungal fermentations.

Abstract
Filamentous microorganisms are main producers of organic acids, enzymes, and pharmaceutical agents such as antibiotics and other active pharmaceutical ingredients. With their complex cell morphology, ranging from dispersed mycelia to dense pellets, the cultivation is challenging. In recent years, various techniques for tailor-made cell morphologies of filamentous microorganisms have been developed to increase product formation and have been summarised under the term morphology engineering. These techniques, namely microparticle-enhanced cultivation, macroparticle-enhanced cultivation, and alteration of the osmolality of the culture medium by addition of inorganic salts, the salt-enhanced cultivation, are presented and discussed in this review. These techniques have already proven to be useful and now await further proof-of-concept. Furthermore, the mechanical behaviour of individual pellets is of special interest for a general understanding of pellet mechanics and the productivity of biotechnological processes with filamentous microorganisms. Correlating them with substrate uptake and finally with productivity would be a breakthrough not to be underestimated for the comprehensive characterisation of filamentous systems. So far, this research field is under-represented. First results on filamentous pellet mechanics are discussed and important future aspects, which the filamentous expert community should deal with, will be presented and critically discussed.

Partial purification and characterization of Aspergillus niger inulinase produced from sugar-beet molasses in the shaking incubator and stirred-tank bioreactors. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 164:3789-3799. [PMID: 32910957 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.09.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2020] [Revised: 04/18/2020] [Accepted: 09/04/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
The objectives of this study were to purify Aspergillus niger inulinase produced from sugar-beet molasses in the shaking incubator (100 mL) and stirred-tank bioreactors (5-L and 30-L) by using some downstream processes and to determine enzyme kinetics and characterization. The results showed that the best centrifuge-time combination was 16,873 ×g-5 min with the purification coefficient of 1.4. Besides, with the ultrafiltration process, the inulinase activities yielded using the shaking incubator, pH-controlled/uncontrolled small-scale bioreactors, and large-scale bioreactor were increased from 1101.3, 2079.2, 1561.3, and 787.5 U/mL to 12,065.2, 21,789.0, 11,296.9, and 2948.1 U/mL with purification coefficients of 5.33, 1.38, 1.46, and 1.67, respectively. Additionally, for the inulinase from shaking incubator and pH-uncontrolled bioreactor, the values of Km for inulin and sucrose were 17.8 and 49.4 mg/mL and 28.8 and 25.9 mg/mL, respectively. As the enzyme amount added to the substrate increased, the activity also increased. Mn2+ is the activator of the enzyme, and Cu2+ and Ag+ are inhibitors of the enzyme. The molecular weight of inulinase has been determined to be between 60 and 70 kDa. Consequently, this study ensures valuable and significant information about the purification and characterization of inulinase for industrial implementations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The fermentation medium contains many complex components (vitamins, minerals, etc.) for better growth of the microorganisms. The increasing purity and number of these components used in the medium seriously affect the cost of the microbial process. This study aimed to further optimize the concentration of the components used in the medium (yeast extract and peptone) for inulinase fabrication by Aspergillus niger from sugar-beet molasses in shake flask fermentation by using Central Composite Design (CCD) and to kinetically identify the fermentation. RESULTS The results indicated that the optimal medium composition consisted of only 4.2% (w/v) yeast extract. By using the fermentation environment, the inulinase generation, inulinase/sucrase ratio, maximum inulinase generation rate, maximum sugar depletion rate, and substrate utilization yield were determined as 1294.5 U/mL, 1.2, 159.6 U/mL/day, 7.4 g/L/day, and 98.1%, respectively. The kinetic analysis of the fungal development (logistic model) indicated that a specific development rate and initial biomass concentration were 0.89/day and 1.79 g/L, respectively. Inulinase and sucrase productions are mixed-development associated since the α value ≠ 0 (8.46 and 4.31 U/mgX) and the β value ≠ 0 (5.15 and 4.83 U/mgX day), respectively (Luedeking-Piret model). Besides, the maintenance value (Z) (0.009 gS/gX day) was lower than γ value (1.044 gS/gX), showing that A. niger commonly uses the substrates for enzyme fabrication and fungal development (modified Luedeking-Piret model). CONCLUSIONS The enzyme activity was increased by optimizing the concentration of the components used. It was demonstrated that the proposed kinetic models can victoriously define fungal development, enzyme fabrication, and sugar depletion.
