Abstract
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) has a promising market due to its capacity to regulate human hormone levels as well as preventing and treating various diseases. We have established a chemical esterification coupled biocatalytic-based scheme by lipase-catalyzed 4-androstene-3,17-dione (4-AD) hydrolysis to obtain the intermediate product 5-androstene-3,17-dione (5-AD), which was then asymmetrically reduced by a ketoreductase from Sphingomonas wittichii (SwiKR). Co-enzyme required for KR is regenerated by a glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) from Bacillus subtilis. This scheme is more environmentally friendly and more efficient than the current DHEA synthesis pathway. However, a significant amount of 4-AD as by-product was detected during the catalytic process. Focused on the control of by-products, we investigated the source of 4-AD and identified that it is mainly derived from the isomerization activity of SwiKR and GDH. Increasing the proportion of glucose in the catalytic system as well as optimizing the catalytic conditions drastically reduced 4-AD from 24.7 to 6.5% of total substrate amount, and the final yield of DHEA achieved 40.1 g/L. Furthermore, this is the first time that both SwiKR and GDH have been proved to be promiscuous enzymes with dehydrogenase and ketosteroid isomerase (KSI) activities, expanding knowledge of the substrate diversity of the short-chain dehydrogenase family enzymes. KEY POINTS: • A strategy of coupling lipase, ketoreductase, and glucose dehydrogenase in producing DHEA from 4-AD • Both SwiKR and GDH are identified with ketosteroid isomerase activity. • Development of catalytic strategy to control by-product and achieve highly selective DHEA production.

Phenotypic and comparative transcriptomics analysis of RDS1 overexpression reveal tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to furfural. J Biosci Bioeng 2023; 136:270-277. [PMID: 37544800 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiosc.2023.06.012] [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: 01/25/2023] [Revised: 06/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/08/2023]
Abstract
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae able to tolerate lignocellulose-derived inhibitors like furfural. Yeast strain performance tolerance has been measured by the length of the lag phase for cell growth in response to the furfural inhibitor challenge. The aims of this work were to obtain RDS1 yeast tolerant strain against furfural through overexpression using a method of in vivo homologous recombination. Here, we report that the overexpressing RDS1 recovered more rapidly and displayed a lag phase at about 12 h than its parental strain. Overexpressing RDS1 strain encodes a novel aldehyde reductase with catalytic function for reduction of furfural with NAD(P)H as the co-factor. It displayed the highest specific activity (24.8 U/mg) for furfural reduction using NADH as a cofactor. Fluorescence microscopy revealed improved accumulation of reactive oxygen species resistance to the damaging effects of inhibitor in contrast to the parental. Comparative transcriptomics revealed key genes potentially associated with stress responses to the furfural inhibitor, including specific and multiple functions involving defensive reduction-oxidation reaction process and cell wall response. A significant change in expression level of log2 (fold change >1) was displayed for RDS1 gene in the recombinant strain, which demonstrated that the introduction of RDS1 overexpression promoted the expression level. Such signature expressions differentiated tolerance phenotypes of RDS1 from the innate stress response of its parental strain. Overexpression of the RDS1 gene involving diversified functional categories is accountable for stress tolerance in yeast S. cerevisiae to survive and adapt the furfural during the lag phase.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is still considered a feasible source of bioethanol production. Saccharomyces cerevisiae can adapt to detoxify lignocellulose-derived inhibitors, including furfural. Tolerance of strain performance has been measured by the extent of the lag phase for cell proliferation following the furfural inhibitor challenge. The purpose of this work was to obtain a tolerant yeast strain against furfural through overexpression of YPR015C using the in vivo homologous recombination method. The physiological observation of the overexpressing yeast strain showed that it was more resistant to furfural than its parental strain. Fluorescence microscopy revealed improved enzyme reductase activity and accumulation of oxygen reactive species due to the harmful effects of furfural inhibitor in contrast to its parental strain. Comparative transcriptomic analysis revealed 79 genes potentially involved in amino acid biosynthesis, oxidative stress, cell wall response, heat shock protein, and mitochondrial-associated protein for the YPR015C overexpressing strain associated with stress responses to furfural at the late stage of lag phase growth. Both up- and down-regulated genes involved in diversified functional categories were accountable for tolerance in yeast to survive and adapt to the furfural stress in a time course study during the lag phase growth. This study enlarges our perceptions comprehensively about the physiological and molecular mechanisms implicated in the YPR015C overexpressing strain's tolerance under furfural stress.

Abstract
Aldehyde reductase (AKR1A1) is a carbonyl detoxification protein in toxic aldehyde removal. In the present study, the full-length cDNA of yellow catfish AKR1A1 (TfAKR1A1) was cloned. As expected, yellow catfish AKR1A1 showed similarities with that of other species. Subsequently, prokaryotic expression vector was constructed and recombinant TfAKR1A1 (rTfAKR1A1) was successfully induced and purified. rTfAKR1A1 exhibited reductive activity to many aldehydes and ketones. To determine whether TfAKR1A1 could confer stress tolerance in vitro, the viability of control and TfAKR1A1 expression E. coli under abiotic stress was compared by spot assay. Results showed that the recombinant strain had better stress resistance under cadmium, hydrogen peroxide, and DL-glyceraldehyde stress. Then, effects of an intraperitoneal injection of rTfAKR1A1 protein on cadmium-induced oxidative stress were evaluated. Results displayed that TfAKR1A1 and Nrf2 expression levels were significantly decreased, CAT and SOD expression levels were significantly increased, BCL-2 and IL-10 expression levels were significantly increased, and caspase3a, NF-κB, and IL-1β expression levels were significantly decreased in protein-injection group. Furthermore, oxidative stress indexes in livers under different protein injection doses were examined by ELISA. Results showed that CAT, SOD, and GSH-Px activities were upregulated, ROS and T-AOC contents were also improved, while MDA content was significantly decreased both in lower and middle dose injection groups. Finally, liver pathological section analysis was performed. Results displayed that liver injury degree in protein-injected groups was lower than that of PBS group under cadmium stress. These results suggested that TfAKR1A1 played important roles in response to cadmium stress in yellow catfish.

Abstract
In this study, we present the concept of co-immobilization of xylose dehydrogenase and alcohol dehydrogenase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae on an XN45 nanofiltration membrane for application in the process of xylose bioconversion to xylonic acid with simultaneous cofactor regeneration and membrane separation of reaction products. During the research, the effectiveness of the co-immobilization of enzymes was confirmed, and changes in the properties of the membrane after the processes were determined. Using the obtained biocatalytic system it was possible to obtain 99% xylonic acid production efficiency under optimal conditions, which were 5 mM xylose, 5 mM formaldehyde, ratio of NAD+:NADH 1:1, and 60 min of reaction. Additionally, the co-immobilization of enzymes made it possible to improve stability of the co-immobilized enzymes and to carry out xylose conversion in six consecutive cycles and after 7 days of storage at 4 °C with over 90% efficiency. The presented data confirm the effectiveness of the co-immobilization, improvement of the stability and reusability of the biocatalysts, and show that the obtained enzymatic system is promising for use in xylose bioconversion and simultaneous regeneration of nicotinamide cofactor.

Abstract
Hericium erinaceus is an important medicinal fungus in traditional Chinese medicine because of its polysaccharides and other natural products. Compared terpenoids and polyketides, the analysis of synthetic pathway of polysaccharides is more difficult because of the many genes involved in central metabolism. In previous studies, A6180, encoding a putative UDP-glucose 4-epimerase (UGE) in an H. erinaceus mutant with high production of active polysaccharides, was significantly upregulated. Since there is no reliable genetic manipulation technology for H. erinaceus, we employed Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to study the function and activity of A6180. The recombinant overexpression vector pET22b-A6180 was constructed for heterologous expression in E. coli. The enzymatic properties of the recombinant protein were investigated. It showed that the recombinant A6180 could strongly convert UDP-α-D-glucose into UDP-α-D-galactose under optimal conditions (pH 6.0, 30°C). In addition, when A6180 was introduced into S. cerevisiae BY4742, xylose was detected in the polysaccharide composition of the yeast transformant. This suggested that the protein coded by A6180 might be a multifunctional enzyme. The generated polysaccharides with a new composition of sugars showed enhanced macrophage activity in vitro. These results indicate that A6180 plays an important role in the structure and activity of polysaccharides. It is a promising strategy for producing polysaccharides with higher activity by introducing A6180 into polysaccharide-producing mushrooms.

RNA sequencing reveals metabolic and regulatory changes leading to more robust fermentation performance during short-term adaptation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to lignocellulosic inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The limited tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to inhibitors is a major challenge in second-generation bioethanol production, and our understanding of the molecular mechanisms providing tolerance to inhibitor-rich lignocellulosic hydrolysates is incomplete. Short-term adaptation of the yeast in the presence of dilute hydrolysate can improve its robustness and productivity during subsequent fermentation. RESULTS We utilized RNA sequencing to investigate differential gene expression in the industrial yeast strain CR01 during short-term adaptation, mimicking industrial conditions for cell propagation. In this first transcriptomic study of short-term adaption of S. cerevisiae to lignocellulosic hydrolysate, we found that cultures respond by fine-tuned up- and down-regulation of a subset of general stress response genes. Furthermore, time-resolved RNA sequencing allowed for identification of genes that were differentially expressed at 2 or more sampling points, revealing the importance of oxidative stress response, thiamin and biotin biosynthesis. furan-aldehyde reductases and specific drug:H+ antiporters, as well as the down-regulation of certain transporter genes. CONCLUSIONS These findings provide a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms governing short-term adaptation of S. cerevisiae to lignocellulosic hydrolysate, and suggest new genetic targets for improving fermentation robustness.

Abstract
t-Butyl 6-cyano-(3R,5R)-dihydroxyhexanoate ((3R,5R)-2) is an advanced chiral diol intermediate of the cholesterol-lowering drug atorvastatin. KmAKRM5 (W297H/Y296W/K29H/Y28A/T63M) constructed in our previous work, displayed good biocatalytic performance on (3R,5R)-2. In the present work, stepwise evolution was applied to further enhance the thermostability and activity of KmAKRM5. For thermostability enhancement, N109 and S196 located far from the active site were picked out by structure-guided consensus engineering, and mutated by site-directed mutagenesis (SDM). For catalytic efficiency improvement, the residues A30 and T302 adjacent to the substrate-binding pocket were subjected to site-saturation mutagenesis (SSM). As a result, the "best" mutant KmAKRM9 (W297H/Y296W/K29H/Y28A/T63M/A30P/T302S/N109K/S196C) was developed, of which T5015 and Tm were 5.0 °C and 8.2 °C higher than those of KmAKRM5. Moreover, compared to KmAKRM5, KmAKRM9 displayed a 1.9-fold (846 vs 2436 min) and 6.7-fold (126 vs 972 min) longer half-lives at 40 and 50 °C, respectively. Structural analysis suggested that beneficial mutations introduced additional hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds, contributing rigidification of the flexible loops and the increase of internal forces, hence increasing the thermostability and activity. 5 g DCW (dry cell weight) L-1KmAKRM9 completely reduced 350 g L-1t-butyl 6-cyano-(5R)-hydroxy-3-oxo-hexanoate ((5R)-1), within 3.7 h at 40 °C, yielding optically pure (3R,5R)-2 (d.e.p > 99.5%) with a space-time yield (STY) of 1.82 kg L-1 d-1. Hence, KmAKRM9 is a robust biocatalyst for the synthesis of (3R,5R)-2.

Abstract
Synthetic biology has played a major role in engineering microbial cell factories to convert plant biomass (lignocellulose) to fuels and bioproducts by fermentation. However, the final product yield is limited by inhibition of microbial growth and fermentation by toxic phenolic compounds generated during lignocellulosic pre-treatment and hydrolysis. Advances in the development of systems biology technologies (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics) have rapidly resulted in large datasets which are necessary to obtain a holistic understanding of complex biological processes underlying phenolic compound toxicity. Here, we review and compare different systems biology tools that have been utilized to identify molecular mechanisms that modulate phenolic compound toxicity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By focusing on and comparing functional genomics and transcriptomics approaches we identify common mechanisms potentially underlying phenolic toxicity. Additionally, we discuss possible ways by which integration of data obtained across multiple unbiased approaches can result in new avenues to develop yeast strains with a significant improvement in tolerance to phenolic fermentation inhibitors.

Abstract
Budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is widely used for lignocellulosic biorefinery. However, its fermentation efficiency is challenged by various inhibitors (e.g. weak acids, furfural) in the lignocellulosic hydrolysate, and acetic acid is commonly present as a major inhibitor. The effects of oxidoreductases on the inhibitor tolerance of S. cerevisiae have mainly focused on furfural and vanillin, whereas the influence of quinone oxidoreductase on acetic acid tolerance is still unknown. In this study, we show that overexpression of a quinone oxidoreductase-encoding gene, YCR102C, in S. cerevisiae, significantly enhanced ethanol production under acetic acid stress as well as in the inhibitor mixture, and also improved resistance to simultaneous stress of 40°C and 3.6 g/L acetic acid. Increased catalase activities, NADH/NAD+ ratio and contents of several metals, especially potassium, were observed by YCR102C overexpression under acetic acid stress. To our knowledge, this is the first report that the quinone oxidoreductase family protein is related to acid stress tolerance. Our study provides a novel strategy to increase lignocellulosic biorefinery efficiency using yeast cell factory.

Kuang X, Ouyang Y, Guo Y, Li Q, Wang H, Abrha GT, Ayepa E, Gu Y, Li X, Chen Q, Ma M. New insights into two yeast BDHs from the PDH subfamily as aldehyde reductases in context of detoxification of lignocellulosic aldehyde inhibitors. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2020; 104:6679-6692. [PMID: 32556414 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-020-10722-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2020] [Revised: 05/25/2020] [Accepted: 06/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
At least 24 aldehyde reductases from Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been characterized and most function in in situ detoxification of lignocellulosic aldehyde inhibitors, but none is classified into the polyol dehydrogenase (PDH) subfamily of the medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (MDR) superfamily. This study confirmed that two (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenases (BDHs) from industrial (denoted Y)/laboratory (denoted B) strains of S. cerevisiae, Bdh1p(Y)/Bdh1p(B) and Bdh2p(Y)/Bdh2p(B), were members of the PDH subfamily with an NAD(P)H binding domain and a catalytic zinc binding domain, and exhibited reductive activities towards lignocellulosic aldehyde inhibitors, such as acetaldehyde, glycolaldehyde, and furfural. Especially, the highest enzyme activity towards acetaldehyde by Bdh2p(Y) was 117.95 U/mg with cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reduced (NADH). Based on the comparative kinetic property analysis, Bdh2p(Y)/Bdh2p(B) possessed higher specific activity, substrate affinity, and catalytic efficiency towards glycolaldehyde than Bdh1p(Y)/Bdh1p(B). This was speculated to be related to their 49% sequence differences and five nonsynonymous substitutions (Ser41Thr, Glu173Gln, Ile270Leu, Ile316Met, and Gly317Cys) occurred in their conserved NAD(P)H binding domains. Compared with BDHs from a laboratory strain, Bdh1p(Y) and Bdh2p(Y) from an industrial strain displayed five nonsynonymous mutations (Thr12, Asn61, Glu168, Val222, and Ala235) and three nonsynonymous mutations (Ala34, Ile96, and Ala369), respectively. From a first analysis with selected aldehydes, their reductase activities were different from BDHs of laboratory strain, and their catalytic efficiency was higher towards glycolaldehyde and lower towards acetaldehyde. Comparative investigation of kinetic properties of BDHs from S. cerevisiae as aldehyde reductases provides a guideline for their practical applications in in situ detoxification of aldehyde inhibitors during lignocellulose bioconversion.Key Points• Two yeast BDHs have enzyme activities for reduction of aldehydes.• Overexpression of BDHs slightly improves yeast tolerance to acetaldehyde and glycolaldehyde.• Bdh1p and Bdh2p differ in enzyme kinetic properties.• BDHs from strains with different genetic backgrounds differ in enzyme kinetic properties.

The open reading frame 02797 from Candida tropicalis encodes a novel NADH-dependent aldehyde reductase. Protein Expr Purif 2020; 171:105625. [PMID: 32173567 DOI: 10.1016/j.pep.2020.105625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2020] [Revised: 03/10/2020] [Accepted: 03/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Owing to its high-temperature tolerance, robustness, and wide use of carbon sources, Candida tropicalis is considered a good candidate microorganism for bioconversion of lignocellulose to ethanol. It also has the intrinsic ability to in situ detoxify aldehydes derived from lignocellulosic hydrolysis. However, the aldehyde reductases that catalyze this bioconversion in C. tropicalis remain unknown. Herein, we found that the uncharacterized open reading frame (ORF), CTRG_02797, from C. tropicalis encodes a novel and broad substrate-specificity aldehyde reductase that reduces at least seven aldehydes. This enzyme strictly depended on NADH rather than NADPH as the co-factor for catalyzing the reduction reaction. Its highest affinity (Km), maximum velocity (Vmax), catalytic rate constant (Kcat), and catalytic efficiency (Kcat/Km) were observed when reducing acetaldehyde (AA) and its enzyme activity was influenced by different concentrations of salts, metal ions, and chemical protective additives. Protein localization assay demonstrated that Ctrg_02797p was localized in the cytoplasm in C. tropicalis cells, which ensures an effective enzymatic reaction. Finally, Ctrg_02797p was grouped into the cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CADH) subfamily of the medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family. This research provides guidelines for exploring more uncharacterized genes with reduction activity for detoxifying aldehydes.

Abstract
Fish lipid is highly susceptible to oxidation, resulting in accumulation of toxic substances reactive carbonyl compounds (RCCs), the reduction of nutritional value, and the production of odorous substances. In this study, the effect of yeast (Saccharomyces uvarum) on RCCs, fat acid composition, volatiles, and sensory traits in silver carp mince stored at 4°C was evaluated. Yeast eliminated malondialdehyde, 4-hydroxyl-2-hexenal, and 4-hydroxyl-2-nonenal by about 80%, 68%, and 60%, which increased by about 170%, 340%, and 300% in the control, respectively. Yeast helped retain about 80% of the polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), respectively; only about 53% and 46% of EPA and DHA, respectively, were maintained in the control. Yeast removed off-odors hexanal, nonanal, and decenal, resulting in enhanced sensory traits. These findings were economically important for improving the quality of fish products. It might present an approach to improve the flavor of fish products.

Abstract
Bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass to high-value bioproducts by fermentative microorganisms has drawn extensive attentions worldwide. Lignocellulosic biomass cannot be efficiently utilized by microorganisms, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but has to be pretreated prior to fermentation. Aldehyde compounds, as the by-products generated in the pretreatment process of lignocellulosic biomass, are considered as the most important toxic inhibitors to S. cerevisiae cells for their growth and fermentation. Aldehyde group in the aldehyde inhibitors, including furan aldehydes, aliphatic aldehydes, and phenolic aldehydes, is identified as the toxic factor. It has been demonstrated that S. cerevisiae has the ability to in situ detoxify aldehydes to their corresponding less or non-toxic alcohols. This reductive reaction is catalyzed by the NAD(P)H-dependent aldehyde reductases. In recent years, detoxification of aldehyde inhibitors by S. cerevisiae has been extensively studied and a huge progress has been made. This mini-review summarizes the classifications and structural features of the characterized aldehyde reductases from S. cerevisiae, their catalytic abilities to exogenous and endogenous aldehydes and effects of metal ions, chemical protective additives, and salts on enzyme activities, subcellular localization of the aldehyde reductases and their possible roles in protection of the subcellular organelles, and transcriptional regulation of the aldehyde reductase genes by the key stress-response transcription factors. Cofactor preference of the aldehyde reductases and their molecular mechanisms and efficient supply pathways of cofactors, as well as biotechnological applications of the aldehyde reductases in the detoxification of aldehyde inhibitors derived from pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass, are also included or supplemented in this mini-review.

Abstract
Vanillin is an aromatic aldehyde found as a component of lignocellulosic material, and in the cured pods of orchidaceae plants. Like other phenolic substances, vanillin has antimicrobial activity and can be extracted from lignin either by a thermo-chemical process or through microbial degradation. Vanillin, can serve as a model monomer in biodegradation studies of lignin. In the present study, a yeast isolated from decaying wood on the Faroe Islands, was identified as Cystobasidium laryngis strain FMYD002, based on internal transcribed spacer sequence analysis. It demonstrated the ability to convert vanillin to vanillyl alcohol, as detected by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight. Structural analysis of vanillyl alcohol was carried out by using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and 1H NMR spectroscopy, and further verified by synthesis. The reduction of vanillin to vanillyl alcohol has been documented for only a few species of fungi. However, to our knowledge, this biotransformation has not yet been reported for basidiomycetous yeast species, nor for any representative of the subphylum Pucciniomycotina. The biotransformation capability of the present strain might prove useful in the industrial utilisation of lignocellulosic residues.
