FEBS J 2024; 291:2009-2022. [PMID: 38380733 DOI: 10.1111/febs.17094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024]
Abstract
Laminaripentaose (L5)-producing β-1,3-glucanases can preferentially cleave the triple-helix curdlan into β-1,3-glucooligosaccharides, especially L5. In this study, a newly identified member of the glycoside hydrolase family 64, β-1,3-glucanase from Streptomyces pratensis (SpGlu64A), was functionally and structurally characterized. SpGlu64A shared highest identity (30%) with a β-1,3-glucanase from Streptomyces matensis. The purified SpGlu64A showed maximal activity at pH 7.5 and 50 °C, and exhibited strict substrate specificity toward curdlan (83.1 U·mg-1). It efficiently hydrolyzed curdlan to produce L5 as the end product. The overall structure of SpGlu64A consisted of a barrel domain and a mixed (α/β) domain, which formed an unusually wide groove with a crescent-like structure. In the two complex structures (SpGlu64A-L3 and SpGlu64A-L4), two oligosaccharide chains were captured and the triple-helical structure was relatively compatible with the wide groove, which suggested the possibility of binding to the triple-helical β-1,3-glucan. A catalytic framework (β6-β9-β10) and the steric hindrance formed by the side chains of residues Y161, N163, and H393 in the catalytic groove were predicted to complete the exotype-like cleavage manner. On the basis of the structure, a fusion protein with the CBM56 domain (SpGlu64A-CBM) and a mutant (Y161F; by site-directed mutation) were obtained, with 1.2- and 1.7-fold increases in specific activity, respectively. Moreover, the combined expression of SpGlu64A-CBM and -Y161F improved the enzyme activity by 2.63-fold. The study will not only be helpful in understanding the reaction mechanism of β-1,3-glucanases but will also provide a basis for further enzyme engineering.

Abstract
Sustainable agriculture is increasingly linked to biological pesticides as alternatives to agro-chemicals. Streptomyces species suppress plant diseases through their unique traits and numerous metabolites. Although many Streptomyces strains have been developed into commercial products, their roles in the biocontrol of phytopathogens and mechanisms of functional metabolite synthesis remain poorly understood. In this review, biocontrol of plant diseases by Streptomyces is summarized on the basis of classification of fungal and bacterial diseases and secondary metabolites produced by Streptomyces that act on phytopathogenic microorganisms are discussed. The associated non-ribosomal peptide synthetases and polyketide synthetases responsible for biosynthesis of these secondary metabolites are also investigated, and advances in fermentation of Streptomyces are described. Finally, the need to develop precise and effective biocontrol methods for plant diseases is highlighted.

Abstract
Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) is caused by Cercospora canescens and is one of the most important diseases of mungbean (Vigna radiata). Cercospora leaf spot may result in economic loss in production areas. The present study investigated the potential of Bacillus velezensis S141 as a biocontrol agent for C. canescens PAK1 growth on culture plates. Cell-free secretions from a dual culture of S141+PAK1 inhibited fungal growth more than those from a single culture of S141. The biocontrol efficiency of S141 against Cercospora leaf spot on mungbean was then evaluated by spraying. The disease severity of Cercospora leaf spot was significantly reduced in plants treated with S141, with a control efficiency of 83% after 2 days of infection. Comparative transcriptomics and qRT-PCR ana-lyses of S141 during C. canescens inhibition were performed to elucidate the antifungal mechanisms underlying its antifungal activity against Cercospora leaf spot. According to the differentially expressed genes, most up-regulated genes involved in the biosynthetic genes encoding enzymatic hydrolases, including protease, β-glucanase, and N-acyl glucosaminase, were detected in strain S141 following its interaction. Moreover, genes related to secondary metabolites (surfactin, bacilysin, and bacillomycin D) were up-regulated. Collectively, these results suggest that S141 exhibited strong antifungal activity against C. canescens due to multiple enzymatic hydrolases and secondary metabolites. Therefore, the present study provides insights into the biological network responsible for the antifungal activity of B. velezensis S141 against C. canescens.

Abstract
Burkholderia arboris, which belongs to the Burkholderia cepacia complex, has been shown to possess antifungal activity against several plant fungal pathogens; however, the antifungal compounds are yet to be identified. Here, we identified the antifungal compounds produced by B. arboris using genetic and metabolomic approaches. We generated a Tn5 transposon mutation library of 3,000 B. arboris mutants and isolated three mutants with reduced antifungal activity against the plant fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum. Among the mutants, the M464 mutant exhibited the weakest antifungal activity. In the M464 genome, the transposon was inserted into the cobA gene, encoding uroporphyrin-III methyltransferase. Deletion of the cobA gene also resulted in reduced antifungal activity, indicating that the cobA gene contributed to the antifungal activity of B. arboris. Furthermore, a comparison of the differential metabolites between wild type B. arboris and the ∆cobA mutant showed a significantly decreased level of tetrapeptide His-Ala-Phe-Lys (Hafk) in the ∆cobA mutant. Therefore, a Hafk peptide with D-amino acid residues was synthesized and its antifungal activity was evaluated. Notably, the Hafk peptide displayed significant antifungal activity against F. oxysporum and Botrytis cinerea, two plant pathogens that cause destructive fungal diseases. Overall, a novel antifungal compound (Hafk) that can be used for the biocontrol of fungal diseases in plants was identified in B. arboris.

Abstract
Mycotoxins produced by Fusarium species on cereals represent a major concern for food safety worldwide. Fusarium toxins that are currently under regulation for their content in food include trichothecenes, fumonisins, and zearalenone. Biological control of Fusarium spp. has been widely explored with the aim of limiting disease occurrence, but few efforts have focused so far on limiting toxin accumulation in grains. The bacterial genus Streptomyces is responsible for the production of numerous drug molecules and represents a huge resource for the discovery of new molecules. Streptomyces spp. are also efficient plant colonizers and able to employ different mechanisms of control against toxigenic fungi on cereals. This review describes the outcomes of research using Streptomyces strains and/or their derived molecules to limit toxin production and/or contamination of Fusarium species in cereals. Both the scientific and patent literature were analyzed, starting from the year 2000, and we highlight promising results as well as the current pitfalls and limitations of this approach.

Abstract
Laminarinases exhibit potential in a wide range of industrial applications including the production of biofuels and pharmaceuticals. In this study, we present the genetic and biochemical characteristics of FLamA and FLamB, two laminarinases derived from a metagenomic sample from a hot spring in the Azores. Sequence comparison revealed that both genes had high similarities to genes from Fervidobacterium nodosum Rt17-B1. The two proteins showed sequence similarities of 62% to each other and belong to the glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 16. For biochemical characterization, both laminarinases were heterologously produced in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. FLamA and FLamB exhibited similar properties and both showed highest activity towards laminarin at 90 °C and pH 6.5. The two enzymes were thermostable but differed in their half-life at 80 °C with 5 h and 1 h for FLamA and FLamB, respectively. In contrast to other laminarinases, both enzymes prefer β-1,3-glucans and mixed-linked glucans as substrates. However, FLamA and FLamB differ in their catalytic efficiency towards laminarin. Structure predictions were made and showed minor differences particularly in a kink adjacent to the active site cleft. The high specific activities and resistance to elevated temperatures and various additives make both enzymes suitable candidates for application in biomass conversion.

Abstract
β-1,3-Glucanase is considered as a useful enzymatic tool for β-1,3-glucan degradation to produce (1→3)-linked β-glucan oligosaccharides with pharmacological activity properties. To validly isolate β-1,3-glucanase-producing microorganisms, the soil of Wolfiporia extensa, considered an environment rich in β-1,3-glucan-degrading microorganisms, was subjected to high throughput sequencing. The results demonstrated that the genera Streptomyces (1.90%) and Arthrobacter (0.78%) belonging to the order Actinomycetales (8.64%) in the phylum Actinobacteria (18.64%) were observed in soil for P. cocos cultivation (FTL1). Actinomycetes were considered as the candidates for isolation of glucan-degrading microorganisms. Out of 58 isolates, only 11 exhibited β-1,3-glucan-degrading activity. The isolate SYBCQL belonging to the genus Kitasatospora with β-1,3-glucan-degrading activity was found and reported for the first time and the isolate SYBC17 displayed the highest yield (1.02 U/mg) among the isolates. To check the β-1,3-glucanase contribution to β-1,3-glucan-degrading activity, two genes, 17-W and 17-Q, encoding β-1,3-glucanase in SYBC17 and one gene QLK1 in SYBCQL were cloned and expressed for verification at the molecular level. Our findings collectively showed that the isolates able to secrete β-1,3-glucanase could be obtained with the assistance of high-throughput sequencing and genes expression analysis. These methods provided technical support for isolating β-1,3-glucanase-producing microorganisms.

Abstract
Crystal structures of a β-1,3-glucanase from the thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum were determined at 1.20 and 1.42Å resolution in the free and glucose-bound form, respectively. This is the third structure of a family 55 glycoside hydrolase (GH55) member and the second from a fungus. Based on comparative structural studies and site-directed mutagenesis, Glu654 is proposed as the catalytic acid residue. The substrate binding cleft exhibits restricted access on one side, rendering the enzyme as an exo-β-1,3-glucanase as confirmed also by thin layer chromatography experiments. A lack of stacking interactions was found at the substrate binding cleft, suggesting that interactions at positions -1, +1 and +2 are sufficient to orientate the substrate. A binding pocket was identified that could explain binding of branched laminarin and accumulation of laminaritriose.

Improvement of the thermostability and catalytic efficiency of a highly active β-glucanase from Talaromyces leycettanus JCM12802 by optimizing residual charge-charge interactions. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS 2016; 9:124.

Abstract
BACKGROUND β-Glucanase is one of the most extensively used biocatalysts in biofuel, food and animal feed industries. However, the poor thermostability and low catalytic efficiency of most reported β-glucanases limit their applications. Currently, two strategies are used to overcome these bottlenecks, i.e., mining for novel enzymes from extremophiles and engineering existing enzymes. RESULTS A novel endo-β-1,3-1,4-glucanase of GH16 (Tlglu16A) from the thermophilic fungus Talaromyces leycettanus JCM12802 was produced in Pichia pastoris and characterized. For potential industrial applications, recombinant TlGlu16A exhibits favorable enzymatic properties over most reported glucanases, i.e., remarkable stability over a wide pH range from 1.0 to 10.0 and superior activity on glucan substrates (up to 15,197 U/mg). The only weakness of TlGlu16A is the thermolability at 65 °C and higher. To improve the thermostability, the enzyme thermal stability system was then used to engineer TlGlu16A through optimization of residual charge-charge interactions. Eleven mutants were constructed and compared to the wild-type TlGlu16A. Four mutants, H58D, E134R, D235G and D296K, showed longer half-life time at 80 °C (31, 7, 25, 22 vs. 0.5 min), and two mutants, D235G and D296K, had greater specific activities (158.2 and 122.2 %, respectively) and catalytic efficiencies (k cat/K m, 170 and 114 %, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The engineered TlGlu16A has great application potentials from the perspectives of enzyme yield and properties. Its thermostability and activity were apparently improved in the engineered enzymes through charge optimization. This study spans the genetic, functional and structural fields, and provides a combination of gene mining and protein engineering approaches for the systematic improvement of enzyme performance.

Heterologous coexpression of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin and Bacillus megaterium glucanase in Streptomyces lydicus A02 enhanced its production of antifungal metabolites.

Abstract
Streptomyces lydicus A02 is a novel producer of commercially important polyene macrocyclic antibiotic natamycin and a potential biocontrol agent to several plant fungal diseases, including wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. spp. To improve the natamycin production and the antifungal activity of S. lydicus A02, we coexpressed gene vgb encoding Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) and bglC encoding Bacillus megaterium L103 glucanase, both under the control of the strong constitutive ermE* promoter, in S. lydicus A02. Our results showed that coexpressing VHb and glucanase improved cell growth, and the engineered strain produced 26.90% more biomass than the wild-type strain after 72h fermentation in YSG medium. In addition, coexpressing genes encoding VHb and glucanase led to increased natamycin production, higher endogenous chitinase activity and exogenous glucanase activity, as well as enhanced antifungal activity in the engineered S. lydicus AVG02 and AGV02, regardless of the position of the two genes on the plasmids. Compared with model strains, few reports have successfully coexpressed VHb and other foreign proteins in industrial strains. Our results illustrated an effective approach for improving antifungal activity in an industrial strain by the rational engineering of combined favorable factors.

Abstract
Background β-1,3-Glucanases catalyze the hydrolysis of glucan polymers containing β-1,3-linkages. These enzymes are of great biotechnological, agricultural and industrial interest. The applications of β-1,3-glucanases is well established in fungal disease biocontrol, yeast extract production and wine extract clarification. Thus, the identification and characterization of novel β-1,3-glucanases with high catalytic efficiency and stability is of particular interest. Results A β-1,3-glucanase gene designated PglA was cloned from a newly isolated strain Paenibacillus sp. S09. The gene PglA contained a 2631-bp open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 876 amino acids which shows 76% identity with the β-1,3-glucanase (BglH) from Bacillus circulans IAM1165. The encoded protein PglA is composed of a signal peptide, an N-terminal leader region, a glycoside hydrolase family 16 (GH16) catalytic domain and a C-terminal immunoglobulin like (Ig-like) domain. The Escherichia coli expression system of PglA and five truncated derivatives containing one or two modules was constructed to investigate the role of catalytic and non-catalytic modules. The pH for optimal activity of the enzymes was slightly affected (pH 5.5-6.5) by the presence of different modules. However, the temperature for optimal activity was strongly influenced by the C-terminal domain and ranged from 50 to 60°C. Deletion of C-terminal domain resulted in obviously enhancing enzymatic thermostability. Specific activity assay indicated that PglA specifically hydrolyzes β-1,3-glucan. Insoluble β-1,3-glucan binding and hydrolysis were boosted by the presence of N-and C-terminal domains. Kinetic analysis showed that the presence of N-and C-terminus enhances the substrate affinity and catalytic efficiency of the catalytic domain toward laminarin. Carbohydrate-binding assay directly confirmed the binding capabilities of the N-and C-terminal domains. Conclusions This study provides new insight into the impacts of non-catalytic modules on enzymatic properties of β-1,3-glucanase. Activity comparison of full-length PglA and truncated forms revealed the negative effect of C-terminal region on thermal stability of the enzyme. Both the N-and C-terminal domains exerted strong binding activity toward insoluble β-1,3-glucan, and could be classified into CBM families.

Abstract
In Aspergillus fumigatus like in other filamentous ascomycetes, β-1,3-glucan constitutes a prominent cell wall component being responsible for rigidity of the cell wall structure. In filamentous fungi, softening of the cell wall is absolutely required during conidial germination and hyphal branching. Because of the central structure of β-1,3-glucans, it is expected that β-1,3-glucanases play a major role in cell wall softening. Based on in silico and experimental data, this review gives an overview of β-1,3-glucan modifying enzymes in A. fumigatus genome and their putative role during morphogenesis.

Abstract
In this work we report the isolation and the characterization of 79 Streptomyces isolates from a French forest soil. The 16S rRNA gene phylogeny indicated that a great diversity of Streptomyces was present in this soil, with at least nine different and potentially new species. Growth plate assays showed that most Streptomyces lineages exhibit cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic capacities and potentially participate in wood decomposition. Molecular screening for a specific hydrogenase also indicated a widespread potential for atmospheric H2 uptake. Co-culture experiments with representative strains showed antagonistic effects between Streptomyces of the same population and between Streptomyces and various fungi. Interestingly, in certain conditions, growth promotion of some fungi also occurred. We conclude that in forest soil, Streptomyces populations exhibit many important functions involved in different biogeochemical cycles and also influence the structure of soil microbial communities.

Abstract
Two genes of the streptolydigin gene cluster in Streptomyces lydicus cluster encode putative family 16 glycoside hydrolases. Both genes are expressed when streptolydigin is produced. Inactivation of these genes affects streptolydigin production when the microorganism is grown in minimal medium containing either glycerol or d-glucans as carbon source. Streptolydigin yields in S. lydicus were increased by overexpression of either slgC1 or slgC2.

Abstract
Abstract
A novel endo-1,3(4)-β-d-glucanase gene (bgl16C1) from Penicillium pinophilum C1 was cloned and sequenced. The 945-bp full-length gene encoded a 315-residue polypeptide consisting of a putative signal peptide of 18 residues and a catalytic domain belonging to glycosyl hydrolase family 16. The deduced amino acid sequence showed the highest identity (82%) with the putative endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase from Talaromyces stipitatus ATCC 10500 and 60% identity with the characterized β-1,3(4)-glucanase from Paecilomyces sp. FLH30. The gene was successfully overexpressed in Pichia pastoris. Recombinant Bgl16C1 constituted 95% of total secreted proteins (2.61 g l−1) with activity of 28,721 U ml−1 in a 15-l fermentor. The purified recombinant Bgl16C1 had higher specific activity toward barley β-glucan (12,622 U mg−1) than all known glucanases and also showed activity against lichenan and laminarin. The enzyme was optimally active at pH 5.0 and 55°C and exhibited good stability over a broad acid and alkaline pH range (>85% activity at pH 3.0–7.0 and even 30% at pH 11.0). All these favorable enzymatic properties make it attractive for potential applications in various industries.

Abstract
Abstract
A pectate lyase gene (pl-str) was cloned from Streptomyces sp. S27 and expressed in Escherichia coli Rosetta. The full-length pl-str consists of 972 bp and encodes for a protein of 323 amino acids without signal peptide that belongs to family PF00544. The recombinant enzyme (r-PL-STR) was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity using Ni2+–NTA chromatography and showed apparent molecular mass of ~35 kDa. The pH optimum of r-PL-STR was found to be 10.0, and it exhibited >70% of the maximal activity at pH 12.0. After incubation at 37°C for 1 h without substrate, the enzyme retained more than 55% activity at pH 7.0–12.0. Compared with the commercial complex enzyme Scourzyme@301L from Novozymes, purified r-PL-STR showed similar efficacy in reducing the intrinsic viscosity of polygalacturonic acid (49.0 vs. 49.7%). When combined with cellulase and α-amylase, r-PL-STR had comparable performance in bioscouring of jute fabric (22.39 vs. 22.99%). Thus, r-PL-STR might represent a good candidate for use in alkaline industries such as textile.

Abstract
A β-mannanase gene, designated as man5S27, was cloned from Streptomyces sp. S27 using the colony polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The open reading frame consisted of 1,161 bp and encoded a 386-amino-acid polypeptide (Man5S27) with calculated molecular mass of 37.2 kDa. The encoded protein comprised a putative 38-residue signal peptide, a family 5 glycoside hydrolase domain, and a family 10 carbohydrate-binding module. Purified recombinant Man5S27 had high specific activity of 2,107 U mg⁻¹ and showed optimal activity at pH 7.0 and 65 °C. The enzyme remained stable at pH 5.0-9.0 and had good thermostability at 50°C. The K (m) values for locust bean gum and konjac flour were 0.16 and 0.41 mg ml⁻¹, with V(max) values of 3,739 and 1,653 μmol min⁻¹ mg⁻¹, respectively. Divalent metal ions such as Mn²+, Zn²+, Ca²+, Pb²+, and Fe²+ enhanced the enzyme activity, but Ag+ and Hg²+ strongly inhibited the activity. Man5S27 also showed resistance to various neutral proteases (retaining >95% activity after proteolytic treatment for 2 h).
