Abstract
Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS), products of alginate degradation by endotype alginate lyases, possess favorable biological activities and have broad applications. Although many have been reported, alginate lyases with homogeneous AOS products and secretory production by an engineered host are scarce. Herein, the alginate lyase AlyC7 from Vibrio sp. C42 was characterized as a trisaccharide-producing lyase exhibiting high activity and broad substrate specificity. With PelB as the signal peptide and 500 mM glycine as the additive, the extracellular production of AlyC7 in Escherichia coli reached 1122.8 U/mL after 27 h cultivation in Luria-Bertani medium. The yield of trisaccharides from sodium alginate degradation by the produced AlyC7 reached 758.6 mg/g, with a purity of 85.1%. The prepared AOS at 20 μg/mL increased the root length of lettuce, tomato, wheat, and maize by 27.5%, 25.7%, 9.7%, and 11.1%, respectively. This study establishes a robust foundation for the industrial and agricultural applications of AlyC7.

Genome Sequencing-Based Mining and Characterization of a Novel Alginate Lyase from Vibrio alginolyticus S10 for Specific Production of Disaccharides. Mar Drugs 2023; 21:564.

Abstract
Alginate oligosaccharides prepared by alginate lyases attracted great attention because of their desirable biological activities. However, the hydrolysis products are always a mixture of oligosaccharides with different degrees of polymerization, which increases the production cost because of the following purification procedures. In this study, an alginate lyase, Alg4755, with high product specificity was identified, heterologously expressed, and characterized from Vibrio alginolyticus S10, which was isolated from the intestine of sea cucumber. Alg4755 belonged to the PL7 family with two catalytic domains, which was composed of 583 amino acids. Enzymatic characterization results show that the optimal reaction temperature and pH of Alg4755 were 35 °C and 8.0, respectively. Furthermore, Alg4755 was identified to have high thermal and pH stability. Moreover, the final hydrolysis products of sodium alginate catalyzed by Alg4755 were mainly alginate disaccharides with a small amount of alginate trisaccharides. The results demonstrate that alginate lyase Alg4755 could have a broad application prospect because of its high product specificity and desirable catalytic properties.

Abstract
Kelp forests, among the most productive ecosystems on Earth, cover large areas of the South Atlantic coast. Sediment heterotrophic bacteria have a pivotal role in the degradation of kelp biomass, however, the response of sediment microbial communities to periodic kelp biomass inputs is mostly unknown. Here, we show that kelp biomass induced rapid changes in overlying water chemistry and shifts in sediment microbial communities, which differed in the experimental systems containing Macrocystis pyrifera (M) and Undaria pinnatifida (U) with sediments of the respective regions. We observed results compatible with the degradation of labile, high molecular weight compounds into smaller and more refractory compounds towards the end of the incubations. The capability of microbial communities to degrade alginate, the major component of kelp cell walls, significantly increased with respect to controls after kelp biomass addition (Absorbance at 235 nm 1.2 ± 0.3 and 1.0 ± 0.2 for M and U, respectively, controls <0.2, t = 4 days). Shifts in microbial community structure (based on 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing) were tightly related to the kelp treatment and, to a lesser extent, to the sediment provenance (Principal Coordinates Analysis, 80 % of variation explained in the first two axes). Dissolved oxygen, pH, salinity, alginolytic potential, Absorbance at 235 and 600 nm, total N, total C, and SUVA index correlated significantly with community structure. Differentially abundant populations between kelp-amended treatments and controls included members of the Flavobacteriia class (Algibacter and Polaribacter), and Gammaproteobacteria (Psychromonas and Marinomonas), among others. Metagenomes of M and U-amended sediments contained sequences from 18 of the 19 enzyme families related to alginate or fucoidan degradation. Specific taxonomic groups were associated with enzyme classes targeting different substrates, suggesting niche differentiation. This work expands our knowledge on the patterns of microbial assemblages from intertidal sediments in response to kelp biomass inputs.

Abstract
Alginate is an important polysaccharide in the ocean that supports the growth of marine microorganisms. Many widespread Vibrio species possess alginate lyases and can utilize alginate as a carbon source, but the detailed alginate degradation mechanism in Vibrio remains to be further explored. In this study, we obtained a highly efficient alginate-degrading strain, Vibrio pelagius WXL662, with 11 alginate lyases (VpAly-I to -XI) and further elucidated its molecular mechanism of alginate degradation. Three alginate utilization loci (AUL) were identified in different parts of WXL662's genome, comprising six alginate lyases (VpAly-I, -II, -VIII, -IX, -X, and -XI) and other genes related to alginate degradation. Most of the alginate-degrading genes are strongly induced when alginate is provided as the sole carbon source. Ten alginate lyases (VpAly-I to -X) had been purified and characterized, including six from polysaccharide lyase family 7 (PL7), three from PL17, and one from PL6. These recombinant alginate lyases existing in different cellular locations were active at a wide temperature (10 to 50°C) and pH (4.0 to 9.0) range, with different substrate preferences and diverse degradation products, enabling WXL662 to efficiently utilize alginate in a changing marine environment. Importantly, outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) can act as vectors for alginate lyases (VpAly-II, -V, and -VI) in WXL662. Further investigations of public Vibrio genomes revealed that most alginate-degrading vibrios possess one AUL instead of previously reported "scattered" system. These results emphasize the specific alginate degradation strategy in Vibrio pelagius WXL662, which can be used as a model strain to study the ecological importance of effective alginate-degrading vibrios in the ocean. IMPORTANCE Alginate is an important carbon source in the marine environment, and vibrios are major alginate utilizers. Previous studies focused only on the characteristics of individual alginate lyases in vibrios, but few of them discussed the comprehensive alginate-degrading strategy. Here, we depicted the alginate utilization mechanism and its ecological implications of a highly efficient alginate-degrading Vibrio strain, WXL662, which contained 11 alginate lyases with distinct enzymatic characteristics. Importantly, unlike other vibrios with only one alginate utilization locus (AUL) or the previously reported "scattered" system, three AUL were identified in WXL662. Additionally, the involvement of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) in the secretion of alginate lyases is proposed for the first time.

Abstract
Alginate is abundant in the cell walls of brown algae. Alginate lyases can degrade alginate, and thus play an important role in the marine carbon cycle and industrial production. Currently, most reported alginate lyases contain only one functional alginate lyase domain. AlyC8 is a putative alginate lyase with two alginate lyase domains (CD1 and CD2) from the marine alginate-degrading strain Vibrio sp. C42. To characterize AlyC8 and its two catalytic domains, AlyC8 and its two catalytic domain-deleted mutants, AlyC8-CD1 and AlyC8-CD2, were expressed in Escherichia coli. All three proteins have noticeable activity toward sodium alginate and exhibit optimal activities at pH 8.0-9.0 and at 30-40 °C, demonstrating that both CD1 and CD2 are functional. However, CD1 and CD2 showed opposite substrate specificity. The differences in substrate specificity and degradation products of alginate between the mutants and AlyC8 demonstrate that CD1 and CD2 can act synergistically to enable AlyC8 to degrade various alginate substrates into smaller oligomeric products. Moreover, kinetic analysis indicated that AlyC8-CD1 plays a major role in the degradation of alginate by AlyC8. These results demonstrate that AlyC8 is a novel alginate lyase with two functional catalytic domains that are synergistic in alginate degradation, which is helpful for a better understanding of alginate lyases and alginate degradation.

Abstract
Alginate lyase has received extensive attention as an important tool for oligosaccharide preparation, pharmaceutical production, and energy biotransformation. Noncatalytic module carbohydrate-binding modules (CBM) have a major impact on the function of alginate lyases. Although the effects of two different families of CBMs on enzyme characteristics have been reported, the effect of two combined CBM32s on enzyme function has not been elucidated. Herein, we cloned and expressed a new multimodular alginate lyase, VxAly7C, from Vibrioxiamenensis QY104, consisting of two CBM32s at N-terminus and a polysaccharide lyase family 7 (PL7) at C-terminus. To explore the function of CBM32s in VxAly7C, full-length (VxAly7C-FL) and two truncated mutants, VxAly7C-TM1 (with the first CBM32 deleted) and VxAly7C-TM2 (with both CBM32s deleted), were characterized. The catalytic efficiency of recombinant VxAly7C-TM2 was 1.82 and 4.25 times higher than that of VxAly7C-TM1 and VxAly7C-FL, respectively, indicating that CBM32s had an antagonistic effect. However, CBM32s improved the temperature stability, the adaptability in an alkaline environment, and the preference for polyG. Moreover, CBM32s contributed to the production of tri- and tetrasaccharides, significantly affecting the end-product distribution. This study advances the understanding of module function and provides a reference for broader enzymatic applications and further enzymatic improvement and assembly.

Abstract
Alginate, an acidic polysaccharide, is formed by β-d-mannuronate (M) and α-l-guluronate (G). As a type of polysaccharide lyase, alginate lyase can efficiently degrade alginate into alginate oligosaccharides, having potential applications in the food, medicine, and agriculture fields. However, the application of alginate lyase has been limited due to its low catalytic efficiency and poor temperature stability. In recent years, various structural features of alginate lyase have been determined, resulting in modification strategies that can increase the applicability of alginate lyase, making it important to summarize and discuss the current evidence. In this review, we summarized the structural features and catalytic mechanisms of alginate lyase. Molecular modification strategies, such as rational design, directed evolution, conserved domain recombination, and non-catalytic domain truncation, are also described in detail.

Tang L, Guo E, Zhang L, Wang Y, Gao S, Bao M, Han F, Yu W. The Function of CBM32 in Alginate Lyase VxAly7B on the Activity on Both Soluble Sodium Alginate and Alginate Gel. Front Microbiol 2022; 12:798819. [PMID: 35069502 PMCID: PMC8776709 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2021.798819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 12/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs), as an important auxiliary module, play a key role in degrading soluble alginate by alginate lyase, but the function on alginate gel has not been elucidated. Recently, we reported alginate lyase VxAly7B containing a CBM32 and a polysaccharide lyase family 7 (PL7). To investigate the specific function of CBM32, we characterized the full-length alginate lyase VxAly7B (VxAly7B-FL) and truncated mutants VxAly7B-CM (PL7) and VxAly7B-CBM (CBM32). Both VxAly7B-FL and native VxAly7B can spontaneously cleavage between CBM32 and PL7. The substrate-binding capacity and activity of VxAly7B-CM to soluble alginate were 0.86- and 1.97-fold those of VxAly7B-FL, respectively. Moreover, CBM32 could accelerate the expansion and cleavage of alginate gel beads, and the degradation rate of VxAly7B-FL to alginate gel beads was threefold that of VxAly7B-CM. Results showed that CBM32 is not conducive to the degradation of soluble alginate by VxAly7B but is helpful for binding and degradation of insoluble alginate gel. This study provides new insights into the function of CBM32 on alginate gel, which may inspire the application strategy of CBMs in insoluble substrates.

Abstract
Alginate, which is mainly produced by brown algae and decomposed by heterotrophic bacteria, is an important marine organic carbon source. The genus Pseudoalteromonas contains diverse forms of heterotrophic bacteria that are widely distributed in marine environments and are an important group in alginate degradation. In this review, the diversity of alginate-degrading Pseudoalteromonas is introduced, and the characteristics of Pseudoalteromonas alginate lyases, including their sequences, enzymatic properties, structures, and catalytic mechanisms, and the synergistic effect of Pseudoalteromonas alginate lyases on alginate degradation are introduced. The acquisition of the alginate degradation capacity and the alginate utilization pathways of Pseudoalteromonas are also introduced. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of alginate degradation by Pseudoalteromonas, which will contribute to the understanding of the degradation and recycling of marine algal polysaccharides driven by marine bacteria.

Abstract
Alginate is a biopolymer used extensively in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) derived from alginate exhibit superior biological activities and therapeutic potential. Alginate lyases with characteristic substrate specificity can facilitate the production of a broad array of AOS with precise structure and functionality. By adopting innovative analytical tools in conjunction with focused clinical studies, the structure-bioactivity relationship of a number of AOS has been brought to light. This review covers fundamental aspects and recent developments in AOS research. Enzymatic and microbial processes involved in AOS production from brown algae and sequential steps involved in AOS structure elucidation are outlined. Biological mechanisms underlying the health benefits of AOS and their potential industrial and therapeutic applications are elaborated. Withal, various challenges in AOS research are traced out, and future directions, specifically on recombinant systems for AOS preparation, are delineated to further widen the horizon of these exceptional oligosaccharides.

Abstract
Brown algae, as the main source of alginate, are a type of marine biomass with a very high output. Alginate, a polysaccharide composed of β-D-mannuronic acid (M) and α-L-guluronic acid (G), has great potential for applications in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Alginate lyases (Alys) can degrade alginate polymers into oligosaccharides or monosaccharides, resulting in a broad application field. Alys can be used for both the production of alginate oligosaccharides and the biorefinery of brown algae. In view of their important functions, an increasing number of Alys have been isolated and characterized. For better application, a comprehensive understanding of Alys is essential. Therefore, in this paper, we summarized recently discovered Alys, discussed their characteristics, and introduced their structural properties, degradation patterns and biological roles in alginate-degrading organisms. In addition, applications of Alys have been illustrated with examples. This paper provides a relatively comprehensive description of Alys, which is significant for Alys exploration and application.

Abstract
Alginate is a commercially important polysaccharide widely applied in various industries. Carbohydrate-binding proteins could be utilized as desirable tools in the investigation and further applications of polysaccharides. Few alginate-binding proteins have hitherto been characterized and reported. In the present study, a novel alginate-binding protein ABP_Wf, consisting of two "orphan" carbohydrate-binding modules, was cloned from a predicted alginate utilization locus of marine bacterium Wenyingzhuangia funcanilytica, and expressed in Escherichia coli. ABP_Wf exhibited a specific binding capacity to alginate, and the association constant (Ka) and affinity (KD) were 1.94 × 103 M-1s-1 and 1.16 × 10-6 M. It was confirmed that the binding capacity of ABP_Wf to alginate is attributed to its constituent CBM16 domain rather than the CBM44 domain. The potentials of ABP_Wf in the semi-quantitative detection and the in situ visualization of alginate were evaluated, which implied that ABP_Wf could be served as a promising tool for investigating alginate.

Characterization of different alginate lyases for dissolving Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms. Sci Rep 2020; 10:9390.

Abstract
Aggregates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa form a protective barrier against antibiotics and the immune system. These barriers, known as biofilms, are associated with several infectious diseases. One of the main components of these biofilms is alginate, a homo- and hetero-polysaccharide that consists of β-D-mannuronate (M) and α-L-guluronate (G) units. Alginate lyases degrade this sugar and have been proposed as biotherapeutic agents to dissolve P. aeruginosa biofilms. However, there are contradictory reports in the literature regarding the efficacy of alginate lyases against biofilms and their synergistic effect with antibiotics. We found that most positive reports used a commercial crude extract from Flavobacterium multivorum as the alginate lyase source. By using anion exchange chromatography coupled to nano LC MS/MS, we identified two distinct enzymes in this extract, one has both polyM and polyG (polyM/G) degradation activities and it is similar in sequence to a broad-spectrum alginate lyase from Flavobacterium sp. S20 (Alg2A). The other enzyme has only polyG activity and it is similar in sequence to AlyA1 from Zobellia galactanivorans. By characterizing both of these enzymes together with three recombinant alginate lyases (a polyM, a polyG and a polyM/G), we showed that only enzymes with polyM/G activity such as Alg2A and A1-II' (alginate lyase from Sphingomonas sp.) are effective in dissolving biofilms. Furthermore, both activities are required to have a synergistic effect with antibiotics.

Abstract
Alginate is the main component of brown algae which contributes to a huge biomass. The alginate oligosaccharides (AOs) have been widely used in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries due to their various physiological activities. In this study, we expressed and characterized a novel PL-6 alginate lyase, named OUC-ScCD6. The results indicated that OUC-ScCD6 showed highest activity at 50 °C and pH 9.0. OUC-ScCD6 prefers to degrade poly M blocks and could digest poly G blocks as well. Endolytic action mode towards polysaccharides contributes to the creation of AOs with the degrees of polymerization 2-6. Degradation towards saturated oligosaccharides showed that saturated trisaccharides (M3 and G3) were minimum identifiable substrates. Furthermore, OUC-ScCD6 shows an even-numbered glycosidic bonds preference from non-reducing end which provided clearer insights into the substrate recognition and action mode of PL-6 family alginate lyases.

Abstract
Macroalgae are abundant in coastal Arctic habitats and contain a large amount of polysaccharides. Increased macroalgal productivity due to warmer temperatures and reduced sea-ice cover contribute a significant amount of polysaccharide-rich detritus in the region. To study bacterial degradation of macroalgal polysaccharides and their potential impact on biogeochemical processes we studied the response of bacterial communities from Kongsfjorden, Svalbard (Arctic Ocean) to alginate (AL) and agarose (AG) amendments, using an ex-situ microcosm experiment. Our results show that bacterial communities responded to the increased availability of macroalgal polysaccharides and community shift was congruent with a significant decline in nutrient concentrations. Initially-rare bacterial taxa affiliated with Gammaproteobacteria and Bacteroidia responded to the polysaccharide addition. Each polysaccharide addition incited the growth of certain distinct bacteria taxa. Compared to the un-amended control microcosms (CM), Polaribacter, Colwellia, Pseudoalteromonas, and unclassified Gammaproteobacteria responded to AL addition, whereas Paraglaciecola, Lentimonas, Colwellia, unclassified Gammaproteobacteria, unclassified Alteromonadales, and unclassified Alteromonadaceae responded to the AG addition. These results suggest that polysaccharides shift bacterial community composition towards copiotrophic bacterial taxa, with implications for carbon and nutrient cycling in coastal Svalbard.

Abstract
Alginase lyase is an important enzyme for the preparation of alginate oligosaccharides (AOS), that possess special biological activities and is widely used in various fields, such as medicine, food, and chemical industry. In this study, a novel bifunctional alginate lyase (AlgH) belonging to the PL7 family was screened and characterized. The AlgH exhibited the highest activity at 45 °C and pH 10.0, and was an alkaline enzyme that was stable at pH 6.0–10.0. The enzyme showed no significant dependence on metal ions, and exhibited unchanged activity at high concentration of NaCl. To determine the function of non-catalytic domains in the multi-domain enzyme, the recombinant AlgH-I containing only the catalysis domain and AlgH-II containing the catalysis domain and the carbohydrate binding module (CBM) domain were constructed and characterized. The results showed that the activity and thermostability of the reconstructed enzymes were significantly improved by deletion of the F5/8 type C domain. On the other hand, the substrate specificity and the mode of action of the reconstructed enzymes showed no change. Alginate could be completely degraded by the full-length and modified enzymes, and the main end-products were alginate disaccharide, trisaccharide, and tetrasaccharide. Due to the thermo and pH-stability, salt-tolerance, and bifunctionality, the modified alginate lyase was a robust enzyme which could be applied in industrial production of AOS.

Abstract
To address the need for efficient enzymes exhibiting novel activities towards cell wall polysaccharides, the bacterium Pseudoalteromonas atlantica was selected based on the presence of potential hemicellulases in its annotated genome. It was grown in the presence or not of hemicelluloses and the culture filtrates were screened towards 42 polysaccharides. P. atlantica showed appreciable diversity of enzymes active towards hemicelluloses from Monocot and Dicot origin, in agreement with its genome annotation. After growth on beechwood glucuronoxylan and fractionation of the secretome, a β-xylosidase, a α-arabinofuranosidase and an acetylesterase activities were evidenced. A GH8 enzyme obtained in the same growth conditions was further cloned and heterologously overexpressed. It was shown to be a xylanase active on heteroxylans from various sources. The detailed study of its mode of action demonstrated that the oligosaccharides produced carried a long tail of un-substituted xylose residues on the reducing end.

Abstract
Bacteria are integral to marine carbon cycling. They transfer organic carbon to higher trophic levels and remineralise it into inorganic forms. Kelp forests are among the most productive ecosystems within the global oceans, yet the diversity and metabolic capacity of bacteria that transform kelp carbon is poorly understood. Here, we use 16S amplicon and metagenomic shotgun sequencing to survey bacterial communities associated with the surfaces of the giant kelp Macrocystis pyrifera and assess the capacity of these bacteria for carbohydrate metabolism. We find that Macrocystis-associated communities are distinct from the water column, and that they become more diverse and shift in composition with blade depth, which is a proxy for tissue age. These patterns are also observed in metagenomic functional profiles, though the broader functional groups—carbohydrate active enzyme families—are largely consistent across samples and depths. Additionally, we assayed more than 250 isolates cultured from Macrocystis blades and the surrounding water column for the ability to utilize alginate, the primary polysaccharide in Macrocystis tissue. The majority of cultured bacteria (66%) demonstrated this capacity; we find that alginate utilization is patchily distributed across diverse genera in the Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria, yet can also vary between isolates with identical 16S rRNA sequences. The genes encoding enzymes involved in alginate metabolism were detected in metagenomic data across taxonomically diverse bacterial communities, further indicating this capacity is likely widespread amongst bacteria in kelp forests. Overall, the M. pyrifera epibiota shifts across a depth gradient, demonstrating a connection between bacterial assemblage and host tissue state.

Abstract
Alginate lyases degrade alginate in a beta-elimination reaction to produce oligosaccharides. Thus, alginate lyases are widely used in the food/pharmaceutical industries and are commercially valuable. In this study, four alginate lyase encoding genes were successfully cloned from Sphingomonas sp. ZH0. The expression systems of these alginate lyases were then constructed in Escherichia coli cells. The recombinant ZH0-I, ZH0-II, ZH0-III and ZH0-IV were purified from E. coli cells and were confirmed to be monomeric enzymes with molecular weights of approximately 91, 52, 67, and 113 kDa, respectively. The conditions for enzymes to have the highest specific lyase activities were 53.2 U/mg, 42 °C, pH 7.0 for ZH0-I, 103.9 U/mg, 47 °C, pH 6.5 for ZH0-II, 13.7 U/mg, 52 °C, pH 7.5 for ZH0-III, and 12.3 U/mg, 37 °C, pH 7.0 for ZH0-IV, respectively. These recombinant enzymes were stable over a pH range. Moreover, the enzymes were active in the absence of salt ions, and their activities were substantially reduced by the addition of HgCl2. ZH0-I, ZH0-II and ZH0-III belong to endotype alginate lyases, while ZH0-IV is an exotype alginate lyase. All types could degrade both poly-β-d-mannuronate and poly-α-l-guluronate blocks, yielding alginate oligosaccharides as the main product. The Km and Vmax values were 0.51 mg/ml and 56.18 U/ml for ZH0-I, 0.47 mg/ml and 27.5 U/ml for ZH0-II, 0.55 mg/ml and 60.24 U/ml for ZH0-III, and 0.41 mg/ml and 5.53 U/ml for ZH0-IV, respectively. These features indicate that these alginate lyases are promising candidates for producing antioxidants from alginates in industrial applications.

Abstract
AlyQ from Persicobacter sp. CCB-QB2 is an alginate lyase with three domains — a carbohydrate-binding domain modestly resembling family 16 carbohydrate-binding module (CBM16), a family 32 CBM (CBM32) domain, and an alginate lyase domain belonging to polysaccharide lyase family 7 (PL7). Although AlyQ can also act on polyguluronate (poly-G) and polymannuronate (poly-M), it is most active on alginate. Studies with truncated AlyQ showed that the CBM32 domain did not contribute to enhancing AlyQ’s activity under the assayed conditions. Nevertheless, it could bind to cleaved but not intact alginate, indicating that the CBM32 domain recognises alginate termini. The crystal structure containing both CBM32 and catalytic domains show that they do not interact with one another. The CBM32 domain contains a conserved Arg that may bind to the carboxyl group of alginate. The catalytic domain, meanwhile, shares a conserved substrate-binding groove, and the presence of two negatively charged Asp residues may dictate substrate specificity especially at subsite +1. As Persicobacter sp. CCB-QB2 was unable to utilise alginate, AlyQ may function to help the bacterium degrade cell walls more efficiently.

Complete genome sequence and transcriptomic analysis of a novel marine strain Bacillus weihaiensis reveals the mechanism of brown algae degradation. Sci Rep 2016; 6:38248.

Abstract
A novel marine strain representing efficient degradation ability toward brown algae was isolated, identified, and assigned to Bacillus weihaiensis Alg07. The alga-associated marine bacteria promote the nutrient cycle and perform important functions in the marine ecosystem. The de novo sequencing of the B. weihaiensis Alg07 genome was carried out. Results of gene annotation and carbohydrate-active enzyme analysis showed that the strain harbored enzymes that can completely degrade alginate and laminarin, which are the specific polysaccharides of brown algae. We also found genes for the utilization of mannitol, the major storage monosaccharide in the cell of brown algae. To understand the process of brown algae decomposition by B. weihaiensis Alg07, RNA-seq transcriptome analysis and qRT-PCR were performed. The genes involved in alginate metabolism were all up-regulated in the initial stage of kelp degradation, suggesting that the strain Alg07 first degrades alginate to destruct the cell wall so that the laminarin and mannitol are released and subsequently decomposed. The key genes involved in alginate and laminarin degradation were expressed in Escherichia coli and characterized. Overall, the model of brown algae degradation by the marine strain Alg07 was established, and novel alginate lyases and laminarinase were discovered.

Abstract
Marine microorganisms produce a series of promising enzymes that have been widely used or are potentially valuable for our daily life. Both classic and newly developed biochemistry technologies have been broadly used to study marine and terrestrial microbiological enzymes. In this brief review, we provide a research update and prospects regarding regulatory mechanisms and related strategies of acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL) lactonase, which is an important but largely unexplored enzyme. We also detail the status and catalytic mechanism of the main types of polysaccharide-degrading enzymes that broadly exist among marine microorganisms but have been poorly explored. In order to facilitate understanding, the regulatory and synthetic biology strategies of terrestrial microorganisms are also mentioned in comparison. We anticipate that this review will provide an outline of multiple strategies for promising marine microbial enzymes and open new avenues for the exploration, engineering and application of various enzymes.

Abstract
Background: Alginate is a linear polysaccharide consisting of guluronate (polyG) and mannuronate (polyM) subunits. Methods: In the initial screening of alginate-degrading bacteria from soil, 10 isolates were able to grow on minimal medium containing alginate. The optimization of cell growth and alginate lyase (algL) production was carried out by the addition of 0.8% alginate and 0.2-0.3 M NaCl to the culture medium. Of 10 isolates, one was selected based on its fast growth rate on minimal 9 medium containing 0.4% sodium alginate. The selected bacterium, identified based on morphological and biochemical characteristics, as well as 16S rDNA sequence data, was confirmed to be an isolate belonging to the genus Bacillus and designated as Bacillus sp. TAG8. Results: The results showed the ability of Bacillus sp. TAG8 in utilizing alginate as a sole carbon source. Bacillus sp. TAG8 growth and algL production were augmented with an increase in sodium alginate concentration and also by the addition of 0.2-0.3 M NaCl. Molecular analysis of TAG8 algL gene showed 99% sequence identity with algL of Pseudomonasaeruginosa PAO1. The algL produced by Bacillus sp. TAG8 cleaved both polyM and polyG blocks in alginate molecule, as well as acetylated alginate residues, confirming the bifunctionality of the isolated lyase. Conclusion: The identification of novel algL genes from microbial communities constitutes a new approach for exploring lyases with specific activity against bacterial alginates and may thus contribute to the eradication of persistent biofilms from clinical samples.

Abstract
Enzymatic hydrolysis of sodium alginate to produce alginate oligosaccharides has drawn increasing attention due to its advantages of containing a wild reaction condition, excellent gel properties and specific products easy for purification. However, the efficient commercial enzyme tools are rarely available. A new alginate lyase with high activity (24,038 U/mg) has been purified from a newly isolated marine strain, Cellulophaga sp. NJ-1. The enzyme was most active at 50 °C and pH 8.0 and maintained stability at a broad pH range (6.0-10.0) and temperature below 40 °C. It had broad substrate specificity toward sodium alginate, heteropolymeric MG blocks (polyMG), homopolymeric M blocks (polyM) and homopolymeric G blocks (polyG), and possessed higher affinity toward polyG (15.63 mM) as well as polyMG (23.90 mM) than polyM (53.61 mM) and sodium alginate (27.21 mM). The TLC and MS spectroscopy analysis of degradation products suggested that it completely hydrolyzed sodium alginate into oligosaccharides of low degrees of polymerization (DPs). The excellent properties would make it a promising tool for full use of sodium alginate to produce oligosaccharides.

Abstract
Bacterial alginate lyases, which are members of several polysaccharide lyase (PL) families, have important biological roles and biotechnological applications. The mechanisms for maturation, substrate recognition, and catalysis of PL18 alginate lyases are still largely unknown. A PL18 alginate lyase, aly-SJ02, from Pseudoalteromonas sp. 0524 displays a β-jelly roll scaffold. Structural and biochemical analyses indicated that the N-terminal extension in the aly-SJ02 precursor may act as an intramolecular chaperone to mediate the correct folding of the catalytic domain. Molecular dynamics simulations and mutational assays suggested that the lid loops over the aly-SJ02 active center serve as a gate for substrate entry. Molecular docking and site-directed mutations revealed that certain conserved residues at the active center, especially those at subsites +1 and +2, are crucial for substrate recognition. Tyr(353) may function as both a catalytic base and acid. Based on our results, a model for the catalysis of aly-SJ02 in alginate depolymerization is proposed. Moreover, although bacterial alginate lyases from families PL5, 7, 15, and 18 adopt distinct scaffolds, they share the same conformation of catalytic residues, reflecting their convergent evolution. Our results provide the foremost insight into the mechanisms of maturation, substrate recognition, and catalysis of a PL18 alginate lyase.

Abstract
An alginate lyase-producing bacterial strain, Pseudoalteromonas sp. SM0524, was screened from marine rotten kelp. In an optimized condition, the production of alginate lyase from Pseudoalteromonas sp. SM0524 reached 62.6 U/mL, suggesting that strain SM0524 is a good producer of alginate lyases. The bifunctional alginate lyase aly-SJ02 secreted by strain SM0524 was purified. Aly-SJ02 had an apparent molecular mass of 32 kDa. The optimal temperature and pH of aly-SJ02 toward sodium alginate was 50 °C and 8.5, respectively. The half life period of aly-SJ02 was 41 min at 40 °C and 20 min at 50 °C. Aly-SJ02 was most stable at pH 8.0. N-terminal sequence analysis suggested that aly-SJ02 may be an alginate lyase of polysaccharide lyase family 18. Aly-SJ02 showed activities toward both polyG (α-l-guluronic acid) and polyM (β-D-mannuronic acid), indicating that it is a bifunctional alginate lyase. Aly-SJ02 had lower K(m) toward polyG than toward polyM and sodium alginate. Thin layer chromatography and ESI-MS analyses showed that aly-SJ02 mainly released dimers and trimers from polyM and alginate, and trimers and tetramers from polyG, which suggests that aly-SJ02 may be a good tool to produce dimers and trimers from alginate.

Abstract
Carbohydrate binding modules (CBMs) are specialized proteins that bind to polysaccharides and oligosaccharides. Caldanaerobius polysaccharolyticus Man5ACBM16-1/CBM16-2 bind to glucose-, mannose-, and glucose/mannose-configured substrates. The crystal structures of the two proteins represent the only examples in CBM family 16, and studies that evaluate the roles of amino acid residues in ligand binding in this family are lacking. In this study, we probed the roles of amino acids (selected based on CBM16-1/ligand co-crystal structures) on substrate binding. Two tryptophan (Trp-20 and Trp-125) and two glutamine (Gln-81 and Gln-93) residues are shown to be critical in ligand binding. Additionally, several polar residues that flank the critical residues also contribute to ligand binding. The CBM16-1 Q121E mutation increased affinity for all substrates tested, whereas the Q21G and N97R mutants exhibited decreased substrate affinity. We solved CBM/substrate co-crystal structures to elucidate the molecular basis of the increased substrate binding by CBM16-1 Q121E. The Gln-121, Gln-21, and Asn-97 residues can be manipulated to fine-tune ligand binding by the Man5A CBMs. Surprisingly, none of the eight residues investigated was absolutely conserved in CBM family 16. Thus, the critical residues in the Man5A CBMs are either not essential for substrate binding in the other members of this family or the two CBMs are evolutionarily distinct from the members available in the current protein database. Man5A is dependent on its CBMs for robust activity, and insights from this study should serve to enhance our understanding of the interdependence of its catalytic and substrate binding modules.
