Im JK, Seo DH, Yu JS, Yoo SH. Efficient and novel biosynthesis of myricetin α-triglucoside with improved solubility using amylosucrase from Deinococcus deserti. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 273:133205. [PMID: 38885871 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133205] [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: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 06/02/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
Although myricetin (3,3',4',5,5',7-hexahydroxyflavone, MYR) has a high antioxidant capacity and health functions, its use as a functional food material is limited owing to its low stability and water solubility. Amylosucrase (ASase) is capable of biosynthesizing flavonol α-glycoside using flavonols as acceptor molecules and sucrose as a donor molecule. Here, ASase from Deinococcus deserti (DdAS) efficiently biosynthesizes a novel MYR α-triglucoside (MYRαG3) using MYR as the acceptor molecule. Comparative homology analysis and computational simulation revealed that DdAS has a different active pocket for the transglycosylation reaction. DdAS produced MYRαG3 with a conversion efficiency of 67.4 % using 10 mM MYR and 50 mM sucrose as acceptor and donor molecules, respectively. The structure of MYRαG3 was identified as MYR 4'-O-4″,6″-tri-O-α-D-glucopyranoside using NMR and LC-MS. In silico analysis confirmed that DdAS has a distinct active pocket compared to other ASases. In addition, molecular docking simulations predicted the synthetic sequence of MYRαG3. Furthermore, MYRαG3 showed a similar DPPH radical scavenging activity of 49 %, comparable to MYR, but with significantly higher water solubility, which increased from 0.03 μg/mL to 511.5 mg/mL. In conclusion, this study demonstrated the efficient biosynthesis of a novel MYRαG3 using DdAS and highlighted the potential of MYRαG3 as a functional material.

Abstract
α-Arbutin, a naturally occurring glycosylated derivative of hydroquinone (HQ), effectively inhibits melanin biosynthesis in epidermal cells. It is widely recognized as a fourth-generation whitening agent within the cosmetic industry. Currently, enzymatic catalysis is universally deemed the safest and most efficient method for α-arbutin synthesis. Sucrose phosphorylase (SPase), one of the most frequently employed glycosyltransferases, has been extensively reported for α-arbutin synthesis. In this study, a previously reported SPase known for its effectiveness in synthesizing α-arbutin, was used as a probe sequence to identify a novel SPase from Paenibacillus elgii (PeSP) in the protein database. The sequence similarity between PeSP and the probe was 39.71%, indicating a degree of novelty. Subsequently, the gene encoding PeSP was coexpressed with the molecular chaperone pG-Tf2 in Escherichia coli, significantly improving PeSP's solubility. Following this, PeSP was characterized and employed for α-arbutin biosynthesis. The specific activity of co-expressed PeSP reached 169.72 U/mg, exhibited optimal activity at 35℃ and pH 7.0, with a half-life of 3.6 h under the condition of 35℃. PeSP demonstrated excellent stability at pH 6.5-8.5 and sensitivity to high concentrations of metal ions. The kinetic parameters Km and kcat/Km were determined to be 14.50 mM and 9.79 min- 1·mM- 1, respectively.The reaction conditions for α-arbutin biosynthesis using recombinant PeSP were optimized, resulting in a maximum α-arbutin concentration of 52.60 g/L and a HQ conversion rate of 60.9%. The optimal conditions were achieved at 30℃ and pH 7.0 with 200 U/mL of PeSP, and by combining sucrose and hydroquinone at a molar ratio of 5:1 for a duration of 25 h.

Abstract
Microbial biocatalysts are evolving technological tools for glycosylation research in food, feed and pharmaceuticals. Advances in bioengineered Leloir and non-Leloir carbohydrate-active enzymes allow for whole-cell biocatalysts to curtail production costs of purified enzymes while enhancing glucan synthesis through continued enzyme expression. Unlike sugar nucleotide-dependent Leloir glycosyltransferases, non-Leloir enzymes require inexpensive sugar donors and can be designed to match the high value, yield and selectivity of the former. This review addresses the current state of bacterial cell-based production of glucans and glycoconjugates via transglycosylation, and describes how alterations made to microbial hosts to surpass purified enzymes as the preferred mode of catalysis are steadily being acquired through genetic engineering, rational design and process optimization. A comprehensive exploration of relevant literature has been summarized to describe whole-cell biocatalysis in non-Leloir glycosylation reactions with various donors and acceptors, and the characterization, application and latest developments in the optimization of their use.

Abstract
In this study, a novel high-activity amylosucrase from Salinispirillum sp. LH10-3-1 (SaAS) was identified and characterized. The recombinant enzyme was determined as a monomer with a molecular mass of 75 kDa. SaAS protein exhibited the maximum total and polymerization activities at pH 9.0 and maximum hydrolysis activity at pH 8.0. The optimum temperature for total, polymerization, and hydrolysis activities were 40, 40, and 45 °C, respectively. Under the optimal pH and temperature, SaAS had a specific activity of 108.2 U/mg. SaAS also showed excellent salt tolerance and could retain 77.4% of its original total activity at 4.0 M NaCl. The addition of Mg2+, Ba2+, and Ca2+ enhanced the total activity of SaAS. When the conversion of 0.1 M and 1.0 M sucrose was catalyzed at pH 9.0 and 40 °C for 24 h, the ratios of hydrolysis, polymerization, and isomerization reactions were 11.9:77.4:10.7 and 15.3:53.5:31.2, respectively. The α-arbutin yield of 60.3% was achieved from 20 mM sucrose and 5 mM hydroquinone catalyzed by SaAS. KEY POINTS: • A novel amylosucrase from Salinispirillum sp. LH10-3-1 (SaAS) was characterized. • SaAS has the highest specific enzyme activity among all known amylosucrase. • SaAS has hydrolysis, polymerization, isomerization, and glucosyltransferase activities.

Abstract
Arbutin is a naturally occurring glycosylated product of hydroquinone. With the ability to interrupt melanin biosynthesis in epidermal cells, it is a promising cosmetic ingredient. In this study, a novel amylosucrase, Asmet, identified from a thermal spring metagenome, has been characterized for arbutin biosynthesis. Asmet was able to catalyze transglucosylation of hydroquinone to arbutin, taking sucrose as glycosyl donor, in the temperature range of 20 °C to 40 °C and pH 5.0 to 6.0, with the relative activity of 80% or more. The presence of chloride salts of Li, K, and Na at 1 mM concentration did not exhibit any notable effect on the enzyme's activity, unlike Cu, Ni, and Mn, which were observed to be detrimental. The hydroquinone (20 mM) to sucrose ratio of 1:1 to 1:10 was appropriate for the catalytic biosynthesis of arbutin. The maximum hydroquinone to arbutin conversion of 70% was obtained in 24 h of Asmet led catalysis, at 30 °C and pH 6.0. Arbutin production was also demonstrated using low-cost feedstock, table sugar, muscovado, and sweet sorghum stalk extract, as a replacement for sucrose. Whole-cell catalysis of hydroquinone to arbutin transglucosylation was also established.

Abstract
Arbutin is a compound of hydroquinone and D-glucose, and it has been over 30 years since there have been serious studies on the skin lightening action of this substance. In the meantime, there have been debates and validation studies about the mechanism of action of this substance as well as its skin lightening efficacy and safety. Several analogs or derivatives of arbutin have been developed and studied for their melanin synthesis inhibitory action. Formulations have been developed to improve the stability, transdermal delivery, and release of arbutin, and device usage to promote skin absorption has been developed. Substances that inhibit melanin synthesis synergistically with arbutin have been explored. The skin lightening efficacy of arbutin alone or in combination with other active ingredients has been clinically evaluated. Combined therapy with arbutin and laser could give enhanced depigmenting efficacy. The use of arbutin causes dermatitis rarely, and caution is recommended for the use of arbutin-containing products, especially from the viewpoint that hydroquinone may be generated during product use. Studies on the antioxidant properties of arbutin are emerging, and these antioxidant properties are proposed to contribute to the skin depigmenting action of arbutin. It is hoped that this review will help to understand the pros and cons of arbutin as a cosmetic ingredient, and will lead to future research directions for developing advanced skin lightening and protecting cosmetic products.

Abstract
Amylosucrase (ASase, E.C. 2.4.1.4) is a powerful transglycosylation enzyme that can transfer glucose from sucrose to the hydroxyl (-OH) group of various compounds. In this study, recombinant ASases from Deinococcus geothermalis (DgAS) and Bifidobacterium thermophilum (BtAS) were used to synthesize biosurfactants based on the computational analysis of predicted docking simulations. Successful predictions of the binding affinities, conformations, and three-dimensional structures of three surfactants were computed from receptor-ligand binding modes. DgAS and BtAS were effective in the synthesis of biosurfactants from glyceryl caprylate, glyceryl caprate, and polyglyceryl-2 caprate. The results of the transglycosylation reaction were consistent for both ASases, with glyceryl caprylate acceptor showing the highest concentration, as confirmed by thin layer chromatography. Furthermore, the transglycosylation reactions of DgAS were more effective than those of BtAS. Among the three substrates, glyceryl caprylate glycoside and glyceryl caprate glycoside were successfully purified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with the corresponding molecular weights.

Abstract
Cosmetic dermatology preparations such as bleaching agents are ingredients with skin-related biological activities for increasing and improving skin beauty. The possibility of controlling skin hyperpigmentation disorders is one of the most important research goals in cosmetic preparations. Recently, cosmetics containing herbal and botanical ingredients have attracted many interests for consumers of cosmetic products because these preparations are found safer than other preparations with synthetic components. However, high-quality trial studies in larger samples are needed to confirm safety and clinical efficacy of phytotherapeutic agents with high therapeutic index. Arbutin (p-hydroxyphenyl-β-d-glucopyranoside) is a bioactive hydrophilic polyphenol with two isomers including alpha-arbutin (4-hydroxyphenyl-α-glucopyranoside) and β-arbutin (4-hydroxyphenyl-β-glucopyranoside). It is used as a medicinal plant in phytopharmacy. Studies have shown that alpha-arbutin is 10 times more effective than natural arbutin. A comparison of IC50 values showed that α-arbutin (with concentration 2.0 mM) has a more potent inhibitory activity on human tyrosinase against natural arbutin (with higher concentration than 30 mM). A review of recent studies showed that arbutin could be beneficial in treatment of various diseases such as hyperpigmentation disorders, types of cancers, central nervous system disorders, osteoporosis, diabetes, etc. This study was designed to describe the therapeutic efficiencies of arbutin.

Abstract
Beer is one of the most consumed alcoholic beverages in the world, rich in chemical compounds of natural origin with high nutritional and biological value. It is made up of water, barley malt, hops, and yeast. The main nutrients are carbohydrates, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, and other compounds such as polyphenols which are responsible for the many health benefits associated with this consumption of drinks. Hops and malt are one of the raw materials for beer and are a source of phenolic compounds. In fact, about 30% of the polyphenols in beer comes from hops and 70%-80% from malt. Natural compounds of foods or plants exert an important antioxidant activity, counteracting the formation of harmful free radicals. In the presence of an intense stressing event, cells activate specific responses to counteract cell death or senescence which is known to act as a key-task in the onset of age-related pathologies and in the loss of tissue homeostasis. Many studies have shown positive effects of natural compounds as beer polyphenols on biological systems. The main aims of our research were to determine the polyphenolic profile of three fractions, coming from stages of beer production, the mashing process (must), the filtration process (prehopping solution), and the boiling process with the addition of hops (posthopping solution), and to evaluate the effects of these fractions on Dental-derived Stem Cells (D-dSCs) and human intestinal epithelial lines (Caco-2 cells). Furthermore, we underline the bioavailability of beer fraction polyphenols by carrying out the in vitro intestinal absorption using the Caco-2 cell model. We found an antioxidant, proliferating, and antisenescent effects of the fractions deriving from the brewing process on D-dSCs and Caco-2 cells. Finally, our results demonstrated that the bioavailability of polyphenols is greater in beer than in the control standards used, supporting the future clinical application of these compounds as potential therapeutic tools in precision and translational medicine.

Abstract
Amylosucrase (ASase, E.C. 2.4.1.4) is capable of efficient glucose transfer from sucrose, acting as the sole donor molecule, to various functional acceptor compounds, such as polyphenols and flavonoids. An ASase variant from Deinococcus geothermalis, in which the 226th alanine is replaced with asparagine (DgAS-A226N), shows increased polymerization activity due to changes in the flexibility of the loop near the active site. In this study, we further investigated how the mutation modulates the enzymatic activity of DgAS using molecular dynamics and docking simulations to evaluate interactions between the enzyme and phenolic compounds. The computational analysis revealed that the A226N mutation could induce and stabilize structural changes near the substratebinding site to increase glucose transfer efficiency to phenolic compounds. Kinetic parameters of DgAS-A226N and WT DgAS were determined with sucrose and 4-methylumbelliferone (MU) as donor and acceptor molecules, respectively. The kcat/Km value of DgAS-A226N with MU (6.352 mM-1min-1) was significantly higher than that of DgAS (5.296 mM-1min-1). The enzymatic activity was tested with a small phenolic compound, hydroquinone, and there was a 1.4-fold increase in α-arbutin production. From the results of the study, it was concluded that DgAS-A226N has improved acceptor specificity toward small phenolic compounds by way of stabilizing the active conformation of these compounds.

Abstract
Amylosucrase (ASase) has great industrial potential owing to its multifunctional activities, including transglucosylation, polymerization, and isomerization. In the present study, the properties of Deinococcus geothermalis ASase (DGAS) expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum (cDGAS) and purified via Ni-NTA affinity chromatography were compared to those of DGAS expressed in Escherichia coli (eDGAS). The pH profile of cDGAS was similar to that of eDGAS, whereas the temperature profile of cDGAS was lower than that of eDGAS. The melting temperature of both enzymes did not differ significantly. Interestingly, polymerization activity was slightly lower in cDGAS than in eDGAS, whereas luteolin (an acceptor molecule) transglucosylation activity in cDGAS was 10 % higher than that in eDGAS. Analysis of protein secondary structure via circular dichroism spectroscopy revealed that cDGAS had a lower strand/helix ratio than eDGAS. The present results indicate that cDGAS is of greater industrial significance than eDGAS.

Abstract
Amylosucrase (AS; EC 2.4.1.4) is an enzyme that has great potential in the biotechnology and food industries, due to its multifunctional enzyme activities. It can synthesize α-1,4-glucans, like amylose, from sucrose as a sole substrate, but importantly, it can also utilize various other molecules as acceptors. In addition, AS produces sucrose isomers such as turanose and trehalulose. It also efficiently synthesizes modified starch with increased ratios of slow digestive starch and resistant starch, and glucosylated functional compounds with increased water solubility and stability. Furthermore, AS produces turnaose more efficiently than other carbohydrate-active enzymes. Amylose synthesized by AS forms microparticles and these can be utilized as biocompatible materials with various bio-applications, including drug delivery, chromatography, and bioanalytical sciences. This review not only compares the gene and enzyme characteristics of microbial AS, studied to date, but also focuses on the applications of AS in the biotechnology and food industries.

Abstract
8-Hydroxydaidzein (8-OHDe), an ortho-hydroxylation derivative of soy isoflavone daidzein isolated from some fermented soybean foods, has been demonstrated to possess potent anti-inflammatory activity. However, the isoflavone aglycone is poorly soluble and unstable in alkaline solutions. To improve the aqueous solubility and stability of the functional isoflavone, 8-OHDe was glucosylated with recombinant amylosucrase of Deinococcus geothermalis (DgAS) with industrial sucrose, instead of expensive uridine diphosphate-glucose (UDP-glucose). One major product was produced from the biotransformation, and identified as 8-OHDe-7-α-glucoside, based on mass and nuclear magnetic resonance spectral analyses. The aqueous solubility and stability of the isoflavone glucoside were determined, and the results showed that the isoflavone glucoside was almost 4-fold more soluble and more than six-fold higher alkaline-stable than 8-OHDe. In addition, the anti-inflammatory activity of 8-OHDe-7-α-glucoside was also determined by the inhibition of lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 cells. The results showed that 8-OHDe-7-α-glucoside exhibited significant and dose-dependent inhibition on the production of nitric oxide, with an IC50 value of 173.2 µM, which remained 20% of the anti-inflammatory activity of 8-OHDe. In conclusion, the well-soluble and alkaline-stable 8-OHDe-7-α-glucoside produced by recombinant DgAS with a cheap substrate, sucrose, as a sugar donor retains moderate anti-inflammatory activity, and could be used in industrial applications in the future.

Batch-feeding whole-cell catalytic synthesis of α-arbutin by amylosucrase from Xanthomonas campestris. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2019; 46:759-767.

Abstract
Abstract
α-Arbutin is an effective skin-whitening cosmetic ingredient and can be synthesized through hydroquinone glycosylation. In this study, amylosucrase (Amy-1) from Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004 was newly identified as a sucrose-utilizing glycosylating hydroquinone enzyme. Its kinetic parameters showed a seven-time higher affinity to hydroquinone than maltose-utilizing α-glycosidase. The glycosylation of HQ can be quickly achieved with over 99% conversion when a high molar ratio of glycoside donor to acceptor (80:1) was used. A batch-feeding catalysis method was designed to eliminate HQ inhibition with high productivity (> 36.4 mM h−1). Besides, to eliminate the serious inhibition caused by the accumulated hydroquinone oxidation products, the whole-cell catalysis was further proposed. 306 mM of α-arbutin was finally achieved with 95% molar conversion rate within 15 h. Hence, the batch-feeding whole-cell biocatalysis by Amy-1 is a promising technology for α-arbutin production with enhanced yield and molar conversion rate.

Abstract
α-Arbutin (4-hydroquinone-α-D-glucopyranoside), an effective skin-lightening agent due to its considerable inhibitory effect on human tyrosinase activity, is widely used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Recently, α-arbutin was prepared through transglucosylation of hydroquinone using microbial glycosyltransferases as catalysts. However, the low yield and prolonged reaction time of the biotransformation process of α-arbutin production limited its industrial application. In this work, an amylosucrase (ASase) from Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris str. ATCC 33913 (XcAS) was expressed efficiently in Escherichia coli JM109. The catalytic property of the purified XcAS for the synthesis of α-arbutin was tested. The recombinant strain was applied for highly efficient synthesis of α-arbutin using sucrose and hydroquinone as glucosyl donor and acceptor, respectively. By optimizing the biotransformation conditions and applying a fed-batch strategy, the final production yield and conversion rate of α-arbutin reached 60.9 g/L and 95.5%, respectively, which is the highest reported yield by engineered strains. Compared to the highest reported value (<1.4 g/L/h), our productivity (7.6 g/L/h) was improved more than five-fold. This work represents an efficient and rapid method for α-arbutin production with potential industrial applications.

Abstract
α-Flavone glycosides have beneficial properties for applications in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. However, their chemical syntheses are often limited by a low efficiency or scarcity of substrates. In this study, α-flavone glucosides were enzymatically synthesized by amylosucrase from Deinococcus geothermalis (DGAS) using sucrose and various flavones as a donor for glucosyl units and acceptors, respectively. Luteolin was the most effective acceptor in the transglucosylation reaction using DGAS among nine flavone materials (apigenin, chrysin, 6,7-dihydroxyflavone, homoorientin, 7-hydroxyflavone, isorhoifolin, luteolin, luteolin-3′,7-diglucoside, and orientin). The highest production yield of luteolin glucoside was 86%, with a 7:1 molar ratio of donor to acceptor molecules, in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7) at 37°C for 24 h using 2 U of DGAS. The synthesized luteolin glucoside was identified as luteolin-4′-O-α-D-glucopyranoside with a glucose molecule linked to the C-4′ position on the B-ring of luteolin via an α-glucosidic bond, as determined by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance. This result clearly confirmed that the glucosylated luteolin was successfully synthesized by DGAS and it can be applied as a functional ingredient. Furthermore, this approach using DGAS has the potential to be utilized for the synthesis of various glucosylated products using different types of polyphenols to enhance their functionalities.

Abstract
Ginsenosides from Panax ginseng (Korean ginseng) are unique triterpenoidal saponins that are considered to be responsible for most of the pharmacological activities of P. ginseng. However, the various linkage positions cause different pharmacological activities. In this context, we aimed to synthesize new derivatives of ginsenosides with unusual linkages that show enhanced pharmacological activities. Novel α-glycosylated derivatives of ginsenoside F1 were synthesized from transglycosylation reactions of dextrin (sugar donor) and ginsenoside F1 (acceptor) by the successive actions of Toruzyme®3.0L, a cyclodextrin glucanotransferase. One of the resultant products was isolated and identified as (20S)-3β,6α,12β-trihydroxydammar-24ene-(20-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-D-glucopyranoside) by various spectroscopic characterization techniques of fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry (FAB-MS), infrared spectroscopy (IR), proton-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), 13C-NMR, gradient heteronuclear single quantum coherence (gHSQC), and gradient heteronuclear multiple bond coherence (gHMBC). As expected, the novel α-glycosylated ginsenoside F1 (G1-F1) exhibited increased solubility, lower cytotoxicity toward human dermal fibroblast cells (HDF), and higher tyrosinase activity and ultraviolet A (UVA)-induced inhibitory activity against matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) than ginsenoside F1. Since F1 has been reported as an antiaging and antioxidant agent, the enhanced efficacies of the novel α-glycosylated ginsenoside F1 suggest that it might be useful in cosmetic applications after screening.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arbutin is a plant-derived glycoside with potential antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. Currently, it is mainly produced by plant extraction or enzymatic processes, which suffers from expensive processing cost and low product yield. Metabolic engineering of microbes is an increasingly powerful method for the high-level production of valuable biologicals. Since Pseudomonas chlororaphis has been widely engineered as a phenazine-producing platform organism due to its well-characterized genetics and physiology, and faster growth rate using glycerol as a renewable carbon source, it can also be engineered as the cell factory using strong shikimate pathway on the basis of synthetic biology. RESULTS In this work, a plasmid-free biosynthetic pathway was constructed in P. chlororaphis P3 for elevated biosynthesis of arbutin from sustainable carbon sources. The arbutin biosynthetic pathway was expressed under the native promoter Pphz using chromosomal integration. Instead of being plasmid and inducer dependent, the metabolic engineering approach used to fine-tune the biosynthetic pathway significantly enhanced the arbutin production with a 22.4-fold increase. On the basis of medium factor optimization and mixed fed-batch fermentation of glucose and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, the engineered P. chlororaphis P3-Ar5 strain led to the highest arbutin production of 6.79 g/L with the productivity of 0.094 g/L/h, with a 54-fold improvement over the initial strain. CONCLUSIONS The results suggested that the construction of plasmid-free synthetic pathway displays a high potential for improved biosynthesis of arbutin and other shikimate pathway derived biologicals in P. chlororaphis.

Abstract
Amylosucrases (ASase, EC 2.4.1.4) from Deinococcus geothermalis (DGAS) and Neisseria polysaccharea (NPAS) were heterologously expressed in Bacillus subtilis. While DGAS was successfully expressed, NPAS was not. Instead, NPAS was expressed in Escherichia coli. Recombinant DGAS and NPAS were purified using nickel-charged affinity chromatography and employed to modify daidzin to enhance its water solubility and bioavailability. Analyses by LC/MS revealed that the major products of transglycosylation using DGAS were daidzein diglucoside and daidzein triglucoside, whereas that obtained by NPAS was only daidzein diglucoside. The optimal bioconversion conditions for daidzein triglucoside, which was predicted to have the highest water-solubility among the daidzin derivatives, was determined to be 4% (w/v) sucrose and 250 mg/L daidzin in sodium phosphate pH 7.0, with a reaction time of 12 h. Taken together, we suggest that the yield and product specificity of isoflavone daidzin transglycosylation may be modulated by the source of ASase and reaction conditions.

Abstract
Amylosucrase (EC 2.4.1.4, ASase), an outstanding sucrose-utilizing transglucosylase in the glycoside hydrolase family 13, can produce glucans with only α-1,4 linkages. Generally, on account of a double-displacement mechanism, ASase can catalyze polymerization, isomerization, and hydrolysis reactions with sucrose as the sole substrate, and has transglycosylation capacity to attach glucose molecules from sucrose to extra glycosyl acceptors. Based on extensive enzymology research, this review presents the characteristics of various ASases, including their microbial metabolism, preparation, and enzymatic properties, and exhibits structure-based strategies in the improvement of activity, specificity, and thermostability. As a vital transglucosylation tool of producing sugars, carbohydrate-based bioactive compounds, and materials, the bioengineering applications of ASases are also systematically summarized.

Abstract
The eco-friendly synthesis of non-natural glycosides from different phenolic antioxidants was carried out using a fungal β-xylosidase to evaluate changes in their bioactivities. Xylosides from hydroquinone and catechol were successfully formed, although the best results were obtained for hydroxytyrosol, the main antioxidant from olive oil. The formation of the new products was followed by thin-layer chromatography, liquid chromatography, and mass spectrometry. The hydroxytyrosyl xyloside was analyzed in more detail, to maximize its production and evaluate the effect of glycosylation on some hydroxytyrosol properties. The synthesis was optimized up to the highest production reported for a hydroxytyrosyl glycoside. The structure of this compound was solved by two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance and identified as 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-ethyl-O-β-d-xylopyranoside. Evaluation of its biological effect showed an enhancement of both its neuroprotective capacity and its ability to ameliorate intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species.

Abstract
Arbutin is a hydroquinone glucoside compound existing in various plants. It is widely used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries owing to its well-known skin-lightening property as well as anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, and anti-inflammatory activities. Currently, arbutin is usually produced by plant extraction or enzymatic processes, which suffer from low product yield and expensive processing cost. In this work, we established an artificial pathway in Escherichia coli for high-level production of arbutin from simple carbon sources. First, a 4-hydroxybenzoate 1-hydroxylase from Candida parapsilosis CBS604 and a glucosyltransferase from Rauvolfia serpentina were characterized by in vitro enzyme assays. Introduction of these two genes into E. coli led to the production of 54.71mg/L of arbutin from glucose. Further redirection of carbon flux into arbutin biosynthesis pathway by enhancing shikimate pathway genes enabled production of 3.29g/L arbutin, which is a 60-fold increase compared with the initial strain. Final optimization of glucose concentration added in the culture medium was able to further improve the titer of arbutin to 4.19g/L in shake flasks experiments, which is around 77-fold higher than that of initial strain. This work established de novo biosynthesis of arbutin from simple carbon sources and provided a generalizable strategy for the biosynthesis of shikimate pathway derived chemicals. The high titer achieved in our engineered strain also indicates the potential for industrial scale bio-manufacturing of arbutin.

Abstract
Cosmeceuticals are cosmetic products containing biologically active ingredients purporting to offer a pharmaceutical therapeutic benefit. The active ingredients can be extracted and purified from natural sources (botanicals, herbal extracts, or animals) but can also be obtained biotechnologically by fermentation and cell cultures or by enzymatic synthesis and modification of natural compounds. A cosmeceutical ingredient should possess an attractive property such as anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, skin whitening, anti-aging, anti-wrinkling, or photoprotective activity, among others. During the past years, there has been an increased interest on the enzymatic synthesis of bioactive esters and glycosides based on (trans)esterification, (trans)glycosylation, or oxidation reactions. Natural bioactive compounds with exceptional theurapeutic properties and low toxicity may offer a new insight into the design and development of potent and beneficial cosmetics. This review gives an overview of the enzymatic modifications which are performed currently for the synthesis of products with attractive properties for the cosmeceutical industry.

Abstract
Amylosucrases and branching sucrases are α-retaining transglucosylases found in the glycoside-hydrolase families 13 and 70, respectively, of the clan GH-H. These enzymes display unique activities in their respective families. Using sucrose as substrate and without mediation of nucleotide-activated sugars, amylosucrase catalyzes the formation of an α-(1 → 4) linked glucan that resembles amylose. In contrast, the recently discovered branching sucrases are unable to catalyze polymerization of glucosyl units as they are rather specific for dextran branching through α-(1 → 2) or α-(1 → 3) branching linkages depending on the enzyme regiospecificity. In addition, GH13 amylosucrases and GH70 branching sucrases are naturally promiscuous and can glucosylate different types of acceptor molecules including sugars, polyols, or flavonoids. Amylosucrases have been the most investigated glucansucrases, in particular to control product profiles or to successfully develop tailored α-transglucosylases able to glucosylate various molecules of interest, for example, chemically protected carbohydrates that are planned to enter in chemoenzymatic pathways. The structural traits of these atypical enzymes will be described and compared, and an overview of the potential of natural or engineered enzymes for glycodiversification and chemoenzymatic synthesis will be highlighted.

Abstract
α-Arbutin is a glycosylated hydroquinone that has an inhibitory function against tyrosinase. The aim of the present study is to develop an efficient and inexpensive method for large-scale production of α-arbutin by using Xanthomonas BT-112 as biocatalyst. To accomplish this goal, various surfactants were tested to enhance the α-arbutin production, and the optimal operational conditions for 30L jar fermenter were scaled up for a production level of 3000L with using a constant volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (KLa) and the volumetric aeration rate per volume unit (Q/V) as scale-up criteria. Under the optimized conditions, the α-arbutin produced in the presence of 0.4% (w/v) Tween-80 was 124.8% higher than that of the control, and the yield of α-arbutin in 3000L fermenter was 38.2g/L with a molar conversion ratio of 93.7% based on the amount of hydroquinone supplied. This result is comparable to the results from laboratory-scale fermenter. Hence, 100-fold scale-up was successfully achieved.

Abstract
Many studies have been conducted to promote germination in brown rice in order to improve its nutritional value in terms of enzymes, protein quality, and micronutrient content. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of millimeter wave on germination. Millimeter wave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with frequency between 30 and 300 GHz, and is also called 'biomicrowave'. Millimeter wave significantly stimulated germination. Total polyphenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity also increased, especially at high frequency and prolonged dose. However, γ-aminobutyric acid content was diminished.

Abstract
Recently, the feasibility and effects of using microbubbles (MBs) as an ultrasound (US) contrast agent for enhancing the penetration in transdermal delivery in vivo have been demonstrated, but the mechanism and efficiency are unclear. This study demonstrates the penetration depth, concentration and efficiency of transdermal α-arbutin delivery during 4 weeks after US treatment with MBs in mice. Experimental animals were randomly divided into the following four groups (n = 5 animals per group): (1) penetrating α-arbutin alone (C), (2) US combined with penetrating α-arbutin, (3) US combined with MBs and penetrating α-arbutin, and (4) US combined with diluted MBs and penetrating α-arbutin (UBD). The penetration depths in agarose phantoms and pigskin were 47 and 84% greater for group UBD, respectively, than for group C. The in vitro skin penetration by 2% α-arbutin after 3 h was 83% greater in group UBD than in group C. The degree of in vivo skin whitening (quantified as the luminosity index) in group UBD significantly increased by 25% after 1 week, 34% after 2 weeks, and then stabilized after 3 weeks at 37% in C57BL/6J mice over a 4-week experimental period. Our results indicate that combined treatment with optimal US and MBs can increase skin permeability so as to enhance α-arbutin delivery to inhibit melanogenesis without damaging the skin in mice.

Abstract
A simple, inexpensive, and universal method to quantify the recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli cell lysate using differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) is reported. This method is based on the precise correlation between Δ(fluorescence intensity) determined by DSF and the amount of protein in solution. We first demonstrated the effectiveness of the DSF method using two commercially available enzymes, α-amylase and cellobiase, and then confirmed its utility with two recombinant proteins, amylosucrase and maltogenic amylase, expressed in E. coli. The Δ(fluorescence intensity) in DSF analysis accurately correlated with the concentration of the purified enzymes as well as the recombinant proteins in E. coli cell lysates. The main advantage of this method over other techniques such as Western blotting, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and green fluorescence protein (GFP) fusion proteins is that intact recombinant protein can be quantified without the requirement of additional chemicals or modifications of the recombinant protein. This DSF assay can be performed using widely available equipment such as a real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) instrument, microplates or microtubes, and fluorescent dye. This simple but powerful method can be easily applied in a wide range of research areas that require quantification of expressed recombinant proteins.
