Markosyan L, Vardanyan A. Properties of the extracellular alkaline inulinase produced by haloalkaliphilic phototrophic bacteria Ectothiorodospirea mobilis. Extremophiles 2023; 27:29. [PMID: 37847305 DOI: 10.1007/s00792-023-01315-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2021] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/18/2023]
Abstract
The studies have revealed alkaline exoinulinase produced by haloalkaliphilic phototrophic bacteria Ectothiorhodospirea mobilis Al-2 for the first time. A new method for the isolation of a homogeneous exoinulinase from the culture broth was developed and the properties of this enzyme have been investigated. It was shown that specified exoinulinase in contrast to the studied exoinulinases produced by microorganisms exhibits catalytic activity at the wide range of pH (7.0-10) and a temperature (20-60 °C) with a maximum of the inulolitic activity at pH 9.0 and 50 °C. The studied exoinulinase possessing also invertase activity (I/S1.4) is a monomeric protein with molecular mass 57Kda, as well as Km and Vmax for inulin 3.8 mM/ml and 10 µmol/ml/min-1, respectively. The studies of the influence of different metal ions on enzyme activity have shown that Mn+2, Cu+2, Co+2, Mg+2, NaCl 5-7% promote relatively higher catalytic activity while Zn+2, Cu+2 and Fe+2 partially suppress the enzyme activity and Hg2+completely inactivates the enzyme.The formation of only fructose and glucose at the enzymatic hydrolysis of inulin confirms that the studied exoinulinase belongs to the exo-type of enzymes. The obtained results supplement our fundamental knowledge in biochemistry-enzymology, as well as the biodiversity of microorganisms expressing exoinulinase. The studied exoinulinase exhibits activity at salinity of the medium and can potentially be used in the biotechnology of inulin bioconversion into bioproducts under alkaline conditions.

Trapala J, González-Andrade M, Olvera C, Cayetano M, Sanz-Aparicio J, Jimenez-Ortega E, Bustos-Jaimes I, Montiel C. Relevance of aromatic and polar amino acids in the specificity of Inulinase ISO3 from Kluyveromyces marxianus: A molecular dynamics approach with an experimental verification. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 242:124734. [PMID: 37150366 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124734] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2023] [Indexed: 05/09/2023]
Abstract
The Inulinase from Kluyveromyces marxianus ISO3 (Inu-ISO3) is an enzyme able to hydrolyze linear fructans such as chicory inulin as well as branched fructans like agavin. This enzyme was cloned and expressed in Komagataella pastoris to study the role of selected aromatic and polar residues in the catalytic pocket by Alanine scanning. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and enzyme kinetics analysis were performed to study the functional consequences of these amino acid substitutions. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to construct the mutants of the enzyme after carrying out the MD simulations between Inu-ISO3 and its substrates. Mutation Trp79:Ala resulted in the total loss of activity when fructans were used as substrates, while with sucrose, the activity decreased by 98 %. In contrast, the mutations Phe113:Ala and Gln236:Ala increased the invertase activity when sucrose was used as a substrate. Although these amino acids are not part of the conserved motifs where the catalytic triad is located, they are essential for the enzyme's activity. In silico and experimental approaches corroborate the relevance of these residues for substrate binding and their influence on enzymatic activity.

The Amylolytic Regulator AmyR of Aspergillus niger Is Involved in Sucrose and Inulin Utilization in a Culture-Condition-Dependent Manner. J Fungi (Basel) 2023; 9:jof9040438. [PMID: 37108893 PMCID: PMC10142829 DOI: 10.3390/jof9040438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2023] [Revised: 03/30/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Filamentous fungi degrade complex plant material to its monomeric building blocks, which have many biotechnological applications. Transcription factors play a key role in plant biomass degradation, but little is known about their interactions in the regulation of polysaccharide degradation. Here, we deepened the knowledge about the storage polysaccharide regulators AmyR and InuR in Aspergillus niger. AmyR controls starch degradation, while InuR is involved in sucrose and inulin utilization. In our study, the phenotypes of A. niger parental, ΔamyR, ΔinuR and ΔamyRΔinuR strains were assessed in both solid and liquid media containing sucrose or inulin as carbon source to evaluate the roles of AmyR and InuR and the effect of culture conditions on their functions. In correlation with previous studies, our data showed that AmyR has a minor contribution to sucrose and inulin utilization when InuR is active. In contrast, growth profiles and transcriptomic data showed that the deletion of amyR in the ΔinuR background strain resulted in more pronounced growth reduction on both substrates, mainly evidenced by data originating from solid cultures. Overall, our results show that submerged cultures do not always reflect the role of transcription factors in the natural growth condition, which is better represented on solid substrates. Importance: The type of growth has critical implications in enzyme production by filamentous fungi, a process that is controlled by transcription factors. Submerged cultures are the preferred setups in laboratory and industry and are often used for studying the physiology of fungi. In this study, we showed that the genetic response of A. niger to starch and inulin was highly affected by the culture condition, since the transcriptomic response obtained in a liquid environment did not fully match the behavior of the fungus in a solid environment. These results have direct implications in enzyme production and would help industry choose the best approaches to produce specific CAZymes for industrial purposes.

Single substitution in α-helix of active center enhanced thermostability of Aspergillus awamori exo-inulinase. J Mol Graph Model 2023; 119:108381.

Abstract
Exo-inulinases are applied in inulin hydrolysis and production of feed additives and need to be stable at temperatures of 60-95 °C. Aspergillus awamori exo-inulinase Inu1 is considerably thermostable, with a Tm of 73.2 °C. However, the thermostability of the enzyme should be improved. A single substitution G338A in α-helix in the active center of the enzyme provided a 3.5 °C improvement in Tm. The time of half-life at 70 °C and 80 °C was increased in 5.7- and 2.7-times, respectively, compared to wild-type. Molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated that the substitution G338A caused a decrease in RMSF not only for the α-helix 337-YAANI-341, but also for the catalytically active residues D41 and E241 and the amino acid residues forming the cleft of the active center. Calculations with Constraint Network Analysis for the variant G338A showed the increase in the stability of intramolecular clusters.

Abstract
Inulinase is an enzyme that catalyzes inulin to d-fructose. This enzyme can be extracted from plants, but it is difficult to obtain it in large quantities, so its production cost is high. Therefore, microbial inulinase has great potential for industrial needs. In the last decade, there have been very few reports on actinobacterial inulinases, especially on purification and characterization of inulinase process extraction. This study aims to select actinomycetes that possess high inulinase activity from the soil. To screen inulinase-producing bacteria, modified Czapex-Dox agar supplemented with 1% inulin powder was used. The most effective isolate was Streptomyces sp. EFBO8, morphological and genotypic identification methods, confirmed that the strain is Streptomyces anulatus and that its nucleotide sequence has been deposited in GenBank under accession number OQ073700. To optimize inulinase production, kinetics were performed by using S. anulatus strain, which proved to be most productive with a value of 24,024 EU/mL. The enzyme was purified from the culture filtrate by precipitation with ammonium sulfate (NH4 )2 SO4 , followed by column chromatography Sephadex (G-50) separation. Purified protein has a molecular mass of 3331.83 Da.

Abstract
Climate vulnerability and induced changes in physico-chemical properties of aquatic environment can bring impairment in metabolism, physiology and reproduction in teleost. Variation in environmental stimuli mainly acts on reproduction by interfering with steroidogenesis, gametogenesis and embryogenesis. The control on reproductive function in captivity is essential for the sustainability of aquaculture production. There are more than 3,000 teleost species across the globe having commercial importance; however, adequate quality and quantity of seed production have been the biggest bottleneck. Probiotics are widely used in aquaculture as a growth promoter, stress tolerance, pathogen inhibition, nutrient digestibility and metabolism, reproductive performance and gamete quality. As the gut microbiota exerts various effects on the intestinal milieu which influences distant organs and pathways, therefore it is considered to be a full-fledged endocrine organ. Researches on Gut-Brain-Gonad axis (GBG axis) and its importance on physiology and reproduction have already been highlighted for higher mammals; however, the study on fish physiology and reproduction is limited. While looking into the paucity of information, we have attempted to review the present status of microbiome and its interaction between the brain and gut. This review will address a process of the microbiome physiological mechanism involved in fish reproduction. The gut microbiota influences the BPG axis through a wide variety of compounds, including neuropeptides, neurotransmitter homologs and transmitters. Currently, research is being conducted to determine the precise process by which gut microbial composition influences brain function in fish. The gut-brain bidirectional interaction can influence brain biochemistry such as GABA, serotonin and tryptophan metabolites which play significant roles in CNS regulation. This review summarizes the fact, how microbes from gut, skin and other parts of the body influence fish reproduction through the Gut-Brain-Gonad axis.

Abstract
Microbial enzymes have an indispensable role in producing foods, pharmaceuticals, and other commercial goods. Many novel enzymes have been reported from all domains of life, such as plants, microbes, and animals. Nonetheless, industrially desirable enzymes of microbial origin are limited. This review article discusses the classifications, applications, sources, and challenges of most demanded industrial enzymes such as pectinases, cellulase, lipase, and protease. In addition, the production of novel enzymes through protein engineering technologies such as directed evolution, rational, and de novo design, for the improvement of existing industrial enzymes is also explored. We have also explored the role of metagenomics, nanotechnology, OMICs, and machine learning approaches in the bioprospecting of novel enzymes. Overall, this review covers the basics of biocatalysts in industrial and healthcare applications and provides an overview of existing microbial enzyme optimization tools. KEY POINTS: • Microbial bioactive molecules are vital for therapeutic and industrial applications. • High-throughput OMIC is the most proficient approach for novel enzyme discovery. • Comprehensive databases and efficient machine learning models are the need of the hour to fast forward de novo enzyme design and discovery.

BIOTECHNOLOGY REPORTS (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2022; 33:e00702.

Abstract
Functional foods are essential food products that possess health-promoting properties for the treatment of infectious diseases. In addition, they provide energy and nutrients, which are required for growth and survival. They occur as prebiotics or dietary supplements, including oligosaccharides, processed foods, and herbal products. However, oligosaccharides are more efficiently recognized and utilized, as they play a fundamental role as functional ingredients with great potential to improve health in comparison to other dietary supplements. They are low molecular weight carbohydrates with a low degree of polymerization. They occur as fructooligosaccharide (FOS), inulooligosaccharadie (IOS), and xylooligosaccahride (XOS), depending on their monosaccharide units. Oligosaccharides are produced by acid or chemical hydrolysis. However, this technique is liable to several drawbacks, including inulin precipitation, high processing temperature, low yields, and high production costs. As a consequence, the application of microbial enzymes for oligosaccharide production is recognized as a promising strategy. Microbial enzymatic production of FOS and IOS occurs by submerged or solid-state fermentation in the presence of suitable substrates (sucrose, inulin) and catalyzed by fructosyltransferases and inulinases. Incorporation of FOS and IOS enriches the rheological and physiological characteristics of foods. They are used as low cariogenic sugar substitutes, suitable for diabetics, and as prebiotics, probiotics and nutraceutical compounds. In addition, these oligosaccharides are employed as anticancer, antioxidant agents and aid in mineral absorption, lipid metabolism, immune regulation etc. This review, therefore, focuses on the occurrence, physico-chemical characteristics, and microbial enzymatic synthesis of FOS and IOS from coprophilous fungi. In addition, the potential health benefits of these oligosaccharides were discussed in detail.

Abstract
Inulin is a kind of polysaccharide that can be obtained various biomass. Inulooligosaccharides (IOS), a kind of oligosaccharides that can be obtained from inulin by enzymatic hydrolysis using inulinases, have been regarded as the functional food ingredients. Commercially available inulinases produced by natural Aspergillus niger contained both endo- and exo-inulinase activities. For IOS production from inulin, it is desirable to use only endo-inulinase as exo-inulinase would produce mainly the monosacchairde fructose from inulin. In the present study, a simple inulin-mediated ethanol precipitation method was developed to separate endo- and exo-inulinases present in natural inulinases. IOS production from inulin using the enriched endo-inulinase was then optimized in process conditions including pH and temperature, achieving a high yield of ∼94%. The resultant IOS products had a degree of polymerization ranging from 2 to 7. The study demonstrated a novel method for obtaining partially purified or enriched endo-inulinase for IOS production from inulin in an efficient process.

Abstract
Detailed knowledge on the fate of dietary components inside the human intestinal tract is lacking. Access to this inner world of digestion is now possible through novel human gastrointestinal sampling capsules. Due to the novelty of such devices, no methodology has been published to stabilise and analyse the resulting samples. A complicating factor is that excretion of such capsules in faeces may take days, while degradation of the dietary components continues. Therefore a stabilising reagent should be pre-loaded in the capsule to ensure the measurement of a representative sample. Considering the small volume of recovered samples, analytical methods must be optimized to collect as many data as possible from little material. We present a complete workflow for stabilising and analysing the fermentation status of dietary fibres in such samples, including microbiota, fibre degradation, and short chain fatty acids. The final quenching reagent was designed based on safety and effectiveness to inhibit fructo- and galacto-oligosaccharides degradation and short chain fatty acids production by human ileostomy microbiota, and subsequently validated in faecal samples. The final composition of the stock quenching reagent is 175 mM Tris, 525 mM NaCl, 35 mM EDTA, 12% SDS, and 8 M urea at pH 8.5.

Abstract
Inulin, a polydisperse fructan found as a common storage polysaccharide in the roots of several plants, represents a renewable non-food biomass resource for the synthesis of bio-based products. Exploitation of inulin-containing feedstocks requires the integration of different processes, including inulinase production, saccharification of inulin, and microbial fermentation for the conversion of released sugars into added-value products. In this work paper, a new microbial source of inulinase, Penicillium lanosocoeruleum, was identified through the screening of a fungal library. Inulinase production using inulin as C-source was optimized, reaching up to 28 U mL-1 at the 4th day of growth. The fungal inulinase mixture (PlaI) was characterized for pH and temperature stability and activity profile, and its isoenzymes composition was investigated by proteomic strategies. Statistical optimization of inulin hydrolysis was performed using a central composite rotatable design (CCRD), by analyzing the effect of four factors. In the optimized conditions (T, 45.5°C; pH, 5.1; substrate concentration, 60 g L-1; enzyme loading, 50 U gsubstrate -1), up to 96% inulin is converted in fructose within 20 h. The integration of PlaI in a process for polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production by Cupriavidus necator from inulin was tested in both separated hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). A maximum of 3.2 g L-1 of PHB accumulation, corresponding to 82% polymer content, was achieved in the SSF. The proved efficiency in inulin hydrolysis and its effective integration into a SSF process pave the way to a profitable exploitation of the PlaI enzymatic mixture in inulin-based biorefineries.

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
Soil is an integral part of ecosystem which is niche for varieties of microflora. The present study was investigated to isolate varied strains of bacteria from soil samples of three different geographical regions of Tamil Nadu (India) and evaluate their hydrolytic enzymes (amylase, cellulase, and inulinase) producing potentialities. Among 72 bacterial cultures isolated from Ambattur Industrial Estate, Neyveli Lignite Corporation, and Arignar Anna Zoological Park regions, 41.66, 38.88, and 36.11% of isolates were observed amylase, cellulase, and inulinase producers, respectively. On the other hand, 20.83% of total bacteria isolated from all three regions exhibited concurrent production of amylase, cellulase, and inulinase. Potent isolates depicting maximum enzyme activities were identified as Bacillus anthracis strain ALA1, Bacillus cereus strain ALA3, Glutamicibacter arilaitensis strain ALA4, and Bacillus thuringiensis strain ALA5 based on molecular characterization tools. Further, the thermodynamics parameters, open reading frames (ORFs) regions, and guanine-cytosine (GC) content were determined by distinct bioinformatics tools using 16S rRNA sequences of strains. Minimum free energy values for strain ALA1, strain ALA3, strain ALA4, and strain ALA5 were calculated as −480.73, −478.76, −496.63, and −479.03 kcal/mol, respectively. Mountain plot and entropy predicted the hierarchical representation of RNA secondary structure. The GC content of sequence for strain ALA1, strain ALA3, strain ALA4, and strain ALA5 was calculated as 53.06, 52.94, 56.78, and 53.06%, respectively. Nine ORFs were obtained for strain ALA1, strain ALA3, and strain ALA5 while 10 ORFs were observed for strain ALA4. Additionally, bootstrap tree demonstrated close resemblance of strains with existing bacteria of similar genus. Findings showed higher variability of bacterial diversity as hydrolytic enzymes producers in the investigated geographical regions.

Abstract
Tripeptide glutathione, which plays important roles in many cellular mechanisms, is also a biotechnology-oriented molecule with applications in medicine, food and cosmetic. Here, the engineering of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica for the production of this metabolite at high titer values from various agro-industrial by-products is reported. The constitutive overexpression of the glutathione biosynthetic genes GSH1 and GSH2 encoding respectively γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase, together with the INU1 gene from Kluyveromyces marxianus encoding inulinase yielded a glutathione titer value and a productivity of 644 nmol/mg protein and 510 µmol/gDCW, respectively. These values were obtained during bioreactor batch cultures in a medium exclusively comprising an extract of Jerusalem artichoke tuber, used as a source of inulin, and ammonium sulfate, used as a nitrogen source.

Abstract
This study focuses on fructanase production in a batch reactor by a new strain isolated from agave juice (K. marxianus var. drosophilarum) employing different Agave tequilana fructan (ATF) concentrations as substrate. The experimental data suggest that the fructanase production may be inhibited or repressed by high substrate (50 g/L) and ethanol (20.7 g/L) concentrations present in culture medium. To further analyze these phenomena an unstructured kinetic mathematical model taking into account substrate and products inhibition was proposed and fitted. The mathematical model considers six reaction kinetics and the ethanol evaporation, and predicts satisfactorily the biomass, fructan, glucose, fructose, ethanol, and fructanase behavior for different raw material initial concentrations. The proposed model is the first to satisfactorily describe the production of fructanase from branched ATF with a new strain of K. marxianus.

Abstract
Inulin is a naturally occurring second largest storage polysaccharide with a wide range of applications in pharmaceutical and food industries. It is a robust polysaccharide which consists of a linear chain of β-2, 1-linked-d-fructofuranose molecules terminated with α-d-glucose moiety at the reducing end. It is present in tubers, bulbs and tuberous roots of more than 36,000 plants belonging to both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous families. Jerusalem artichoke, chicory, dahlia, asparagus, etc. are important inulin-rich plants. Inulin is a potent substrate and inducer for the production of inulinases. Inulin/inulin-rich feedstocks can be used for the production of fructooligosaccharides and high-fructose syrup. Additionally, inulin-rich feedstocks can also be exploited for the production of other industrially important products like acetone, butanol, bioethanol, single cell proteins, single cell oils, 2, 3-butanediol, sorbitol, mannitol, etc. Current review highlights the biotechnological potential of inulin-rich feedstocks for the production of various industrially important products.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NB is a newly discovered strain, which produces poly-(γ-glutamic acid) (γ-PGA) from raw extracted inulin of Jerusalem artichoke tubers; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. To address this problem, we identified the inulin hydrolase in wild-type strain B. amyloliquefaciens NB. RESULTS The novel inulin hydrolase (CscA) was discovered from strain NB, with high inulinase activity (987.0 U/mg at 55 °C) and strong resistance at pH values between 8.0 and 11.0, suggesting the potential application of CscA in Jerusalem artichoke biorefinery. CscA exhibited a k cat/K m of (6.93 ± 0.27) × 103 for inulin; its enzymatic activity was stimulated by metal ions, like K+, Mn2+, or Ca2+. Similar to their role in glycoside hydrolase 32 family enzymes, the conserved Asp37, Asp161, and Glu215 residues of CscA contribute to its catalytic activity. Targeted disruption of CscA gene suppressed inulin utilization by strain NB. Overexpression of CscA significantly enhanced the γ-PGA generation by 19.2% through enhancement in inulin consumption. CONCLUSIONS The inulin hydrolase CscA is critical for inulin metabolism in B. amyloliquefaciens and indicates potential application in Jerusalem artichoke biorefinery.

Abstract
Agro-industrial waste is highly nutritious in nature and facilitates microbial growth. Most agricultural wastes are lignocellulosic in nature; a large fraction of it is composed of carbohydrates. Agricultural residues can thus be used for the production of various value-added products, such as industrially important enzymes. Agro-industrial wastes, such as sugar cane bagasse, corn cob and rice bran, have been widely investigated via different fermentation strategies for the production of enzymes. Solid-state fermentation holds much potential compared with submerged fermentation methods for the utilization of agro-based wastes for enzyme production. This is because the physical⁻chemical nature of many lignocellulosic substrates naturally lends itself to solid phase culture, and thereby represents a means to reap the acknowledged potential of this fermentation method. Recent studies have shown that pretreatment technologies can greatly enhance enzyme yields by several fold. This article gives an overview of how agricultural waste can be productively harnessed as a raw material for fermentation. Furthermore, a detailed analysis of studies conducted in the production of different commercially important enzymes using lignocellulosic food waste has been provided.

Appl Biochem Biotechnol 2017; 185:334-346.

Abstract
Yarrowia lipolytica is a promising platform for the single cell oil (SCO) production. In this study, a transformant X+N8 in which exo- and endo-inulinase genes were co-expressed could produce an inulinase activity of 124.33 U/mL within 72 h. However, the inulinase activity of a transformant X2 carrying a single exo-inulinase gene was only 47.33 U/mL within 72 h. Moreover, the transformant X+N8 could accumulate 48.13% (w/w) SCO from inulin and the cell dry weight reached 13.63 g/L within 78 h, which were significantly higher than those of the transformant X2 (41.87% (w/w) and 11.23 g/L) under the same conditions. In addition, inulin hydrolysis and utilization of the transformant X+N8 were also more efficient than those of the transformant X2 during the fermentation process. These results demonstrated that the co-expression of the exo- and endo-inulinase genes significantly enhanced the SCO production from inulin due to the improvement of the inulinase activity and the synergistic action of exo- and endo-inulinase. Besides, over 95.01% of the fatty acids from the transformant X+N8 were C16-C18, especially C18:1 (53.10%), suggesting that the fatty acids could be used as feedstock for biodiesel production.

Abstract
Microbial oils are among the most attractive alternative feedstocks for biodiesel production. In this study, a newly isolated yeast strain, AM113 of Papiliotrema laurentii, was identified as a potential lipid producer, which could accumulate a large amount of intracellular lipids from hydrolysates of inulin. P. laurentii AM113 was able to produce 54.6% (w/w) of intracellular oil in its cells and 18.2 g/l of dry cell mass in a fed-batch fermentation. The yields of lipid and biomass were 0.14 and 0.25 g per gram of consumed sugar, respectively. The lipid productivity was 0.092 g of oil per hour. Compositions of the fatty acids produced were C14:0 (0.9%), C16:0 (10.8%), C16:1 (9.7%), C18:0 (6.5%), C18:1 (60.3%), and C18:2 (11.8%). Biodiesel obtained from the extracted lipids could be burnt well. This study not only provides a promising candidate for single cell oil production, but will also probably facilitate more efficient biodiesel production.

Abstract
It is the first detailed study of an inulinolytic fungus Aspergillus niger ATCC 204447 since its discovery, covering submerged cultivations both in shake flasks and a stirred tank bioreactor. Various carbon sources were applied to induce the inulinolytic activity in shake flask cultures. The highest volumetric and specific (per gram of biomass) activities (respectively 0.68 U/mL and 184 U g/X) were observed for the initial inulin and sucrose concentrations equal to 20 g/L. The fungus grew as large (>3 mm) spherical pellets. The influence of inoculum density and application of microparticle-enhanced cultivation (MPEC) were studied in the batch bioreactor cultivations. Inoculum density moderately affected the inulinolytic activities, whose highest values were 0.7 U/mL and 165 U g/X at the lowest studied spore density of 3.33·108 L-1. Dispersed hyphae evolved in the bioreactor made the broth difficult to aerate due to high apparent viscosity (exceeding 200 Pa sn at shear rate about 0.05 s-1) and shear thinned properties (flow behavior index below 0.2). In MPEC (10 μm talc microparticles) the pellets of diameter between 1 and 2 mm were formed, which facilitated the aeration of the broth and increased the specific inulinolytic activity 3.5-fold.

Abstract
Lactobacillus paracasei DSM 23505 is able to produce high amounts of lactic acid (LA) by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of inulin. Aiming to obtain the highest possible amounts of LA and fructose, the present study is devoted to evaluate the impact of bivalent metal ions on the process of inulin conversion. It was shown that Mn2+ strongly increases the activity of the purified key enzyme β-fructosidase. In vivo, batch fermentation kinetics revealed that the high Mn2+ concentrations accelerated inulin hydrolysis by raise of the inulinase activity, and increased sugars conversion to LA through enhancement of the whole glycolytic flux. The highest LA concentration and yield were reached by addition of 15 mM Mn2+-151 g/L (corresponding to 40% increase) and 0.83 g/g, respectively. However, the relative quantification by real-time reverse transcription assay showed that the presence of Mn2+ decreases the expression levels of fosE gene encoding β-fructosidase. Contrariwise, the full exclusion of metal ions resulted in fosE gene expression enhancement, blocked fructose transport, and hindered fructose conversion thus leading to huge fructose accumulation. During fed-batch with optimized medium and fermentation parameters, the fructose content reached 35.9% (w/v), achieving yield of 467 g fructose from 675 g inulin containing chicory flour powder (0.69 g/g). LA received in course of the batch fermentation and fructose gained by the fed-batch are the highest amounts ever obtained from inulin, thus disclosing the key role of Mn2+ as a powerful tool to guide inulin conversion to targeted bio-chemicals.

Abstract
A metabolic heat-based model was used for estimating the growth of Kluyveromyces marxianus, and the modified Luedeking-Piret kinetic model was used for describing the inulinase production kinetics. For the first time, a relationship was developed to relate inulinase production kinetics directly to metabolic heat generated, which corroborated well with the experimental data (with R 2 values of above 0.9). It also demonstrated the predominantly growth-associated nature of the inulinase production with Luedeking-Piret parameters α and β, having values of 0.75 and 0.033, respectively, in the exponential feeding experiment. MATLAB was used for simulating the inulinase production kinetics which demonstrated the model's utility in performing real-time prediction of inulinase concentration with metabolic heat data as input. To validate the model predictions, a biocalorimetric (Bio RC1e) experiment for inulinase production by K. marxianus was performed. The inulinase concentration (IU/mL) values acquired from the model in were validated with the experimental values and the metabolic heat data. This modeling approach enabled the optimization, monitoring, and control of inulinase production process using the real-time biocalorimetric (Bio RC1e) data. Gas chromatography and mass spectrometry analysis were carried out to study the overflow metabolism taking place in K. marxianus inulinase production.

Abstract
We investigated the transcriptomic response of a new strain of the yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus, in glucose and xylose media using RNA-seq. The data were explored in a number of innovative ways using a variety of networks types, pathway maps, enrichment statistics, reporter metabolites and a flux simulation model, revealing different aspects of the genome-scale response in an integrative systems biology manner. The importance of the subcellular localisation in the transcriptomic response is emphasised here, revealing new insights. As was previously reported by others using a rich medium, we show that peroxisomal fatty acid catabolism was dramatically up-regulated in a defined xylose mineral medium without fatty acids, along with mechanisms to activate fatty acids and transfer products of β-oxidation to the mitochondria. Notably, we observed a strong up-regulation of the 2-methylcitrate pathway, supporting capacity for odd-chain fatty acid catabolism. Next we asked which pathways would respond to the additional requirement for NADPH for xylose utilisation, and rationalised the unexpected results using simulations with Flux Balance Analysis. On a fundamental level, we investigated the contribution of the hierarchical and metabolic regulation levels to the regulation of metabolic fluxes. Metabolic regulation analysis suggested that genetic level regulation plays a major role in regulating metabolic fluxes in adaptation to xylose, even for the high capacity reactions, which is unexpected. In addition, isozyme switching may play an important role in re-routing of metabolic fluxes in subcellular compartments in K. marxianus.
