Two Zn 2Cys 6-type transcription factors respond to aromatic compounds and regulate the expression of laccases in the white-rot fungus Trametes hirsuta. Appl Environ Microbiol 2024:e0054524. [PMID: 38899887 DOI: 10.1128/aem.00545-24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
White-rot fungi differentially express laccases when they encounter aromatic compounds. However, the underlying mechanisms are still being explored. Here, proteomics analysis revealed that in addition to increased laccase activity, proteins involved in sphingolipid metabolism and toluene degradation as well as some cytochrome P450s (CYP450s) were differentially expressed and significantly enriched during 48 h of o-toluidine exposure, in Trametes hirsuta AH28-2. Two Zn2Cys6-type transcription factors (TFs), TH8421 and TH4300, were upregulated. Bioinformatics docking and isothermal titration calorimetry assays showed that each of them could bind directly to o-toluidine and another aromatic monomer, guaiacol. Binding to aromatic compounds promoted the formation of TH8421/TH4300 heterodimers. TH8421 and TH4300 silencing in T. hirsuta AH28-2 led to decreased transcriptional levels and activities of LacA and LacB upon o-toluidine and guaiacol exposure. EMSA and ChIP-qPCR analysis further showed that TH8421 and TH4300 bound directly with the promoter regions of lacA and lacB containing CGG or CCG motifs. Furthermore, the two TFs were involved in direct and positive regulation of the transcription of some CYP450s. Together, TH8421 and TH4300, two key regulators found in T. hirsuta AH28-2, function as heterodimers to simultaneously trigger the expression of downstream laccases and intracellular enzymes. Monomeric aromatic compounds act as ligands to promote heterodimer formation and enhance the transcriptional activities of the two TFs.IMPORTANCEWhite-rot fungi differentially express laccase isoenzymes when exposed to aromatic compounds. Clarification of the molecular mechanisms underlying differential laccase expression is essential to elucidate how white-rot fungi respond to the environment. Our study shows that two Zn2Cys6-type transcription factors form heterodimers, interact with the promoters of laccase genes, and positively regulate laccase transcription in Trametes hirsuta AH28-2. Aromatic monomer addition induces faster heterodimer formation and rate of activity. These findings not only identify two new transcription factors involved in fungal laccase transcription but also deepen our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the response to aromatics exposure in white-rot fungi.

Abstract
BACKGROUND White-rot fungi are known to naturally produce high quantities of laccase, which exhibit commendable stability and catalytic efficiency. However, their laccase production does not meet the demands for industrial-scale applications. To address this limitation, it is crucial to optimize the conditions for laccase production. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying different conditions remain unclear. This knowledge gap hinders the cost-effective application of laccases. RESULTS In this study, we utilized transcriptomic and metabolomic data to investigate a promising laccase producer, Cerrena unicolor 87613, cultivated with fructose as the carbon source. Our comprehensive analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially abundant metabolites (DAMs) aimed to identify changes in cellular processes that could affect laccase production. As a result, we discovered a complex metabolic network primarily involving carbon metabolism and amino acid metabolism, which exhibited contrasting changes between transcription and metabolic patterns. Within this network, we identified five biomarkers, including succinate, serine, methionine, glutamate and reduced glutathione, that played crucial roles in co-determining laccase production levels. CONCLUSIONS Our study proposed a complex metabolic network and identified key biomarkers that determine the production level of laccase in the commercially promising Cerrena unicolor 87613. These findings not only shed light on the regulatory mechanisms of carbon sources in laccase production, but also provide a theoretical foundation for enhancing laccase production through strategic reprogramming of metabolic pathways, especially related to the citrate cycle and specific amino acid metabolism.

Abstract
Microbial co-culture has proven to be an effective way to improve the ability of microorganisms to biocontrol. However, the interactive mechanisms of co-cultural microbes, especially between fungi and bacteria, have rarely been studied. By comparative analysis of morphology, transcriptomics and metabolomics, the interactive mechanisms of a sequential co-culture system of Trichoderma asperellum HG1 and Bacillus subtilis Tpb55 was explored in this study. The results revealed that co- culture has no significant effect on the growth and cell morphology of the two strains, but lead to mycelium wrinkling of HG1. RNA-seq analysis showed that co-culture significantly upregulated the HG1 genes concerning amino acid degradation and metabolism, proteolysis, resisting environmental stress, cell homeostasis, glycolysis, the glyoxylate cycle, and the citric acid (TCA) cycle, while Tpb55 genes related to cell homeostasis, spore formation and membrane fluidization were significantly upregulated, but genes associating to TCA, glycolytic cycles and fatty acid β-oxidation were significantly downregulated. Metabolomic results revealed that some amino acids related to energy metabolism were significantly altered in HG1, whereas palmitic acid, which is related to cell membrane functions, was upregulated in Tpb55. These results indicated that HG1 could interfere with carbon metabolism and cell membrane fluidity, but accelerate spore formation of Tpb55. Biophysical assays further convinced that co-culture could decrease ATP content and inhibit ATPase activity in HG1, and could promote spore formation and reduce the cell membrane fluidity of Tpb55. In addition, co-culture also accelerated the production of intracellular anti-oomycete compound octhilinone. The above results indicate that HG1 and Tpb55 are mainly in a competitive relationship in the co culture system. These findings provide new insights for understanding the interaction mechanism between co cultured microbes.

Microbiol Res 2024; 280:127575.

Abstract
Synergistic microbial co-culture has been an efficient and energy-saving strategy to produce lignin-degrading enzymes (LDEs), including laccase, manganese peroxidase, and versatile peroxidase. However, the regulatory mechanism of microbial co-culture is still unclear. Herein, the extracellular LDE activities of four white-rot fungi were significantly increased by 88-544% over monoculture levels when co-cultured with Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. Ptf6 was demonstrated from the 9 million Y1H clone library to be a shared GATA transcription factor in the four fungi, and could directly bind to the laccase gene promoter. Ptf6 exists in two alternatively spliced isoforms under monoculture, namely Ptf6-α (1078 amino acids) containing Cys2/Cys2-type zinc finger and Ptf6-β (963 amino acids) lacking the complete domain. Ptf6 responded to co-culture by up-regulation of both its own transcripts and the proportion of Ptf6-α. Ptf6-α positively activated the production of most LDE isoenzymes and bound to four GATA motifs on the LDEs' promoter with different affinities. Moreover, Ptf6-regulation mechanism can be applicable to a variety of microbial co-culture systems. This study lays a theoretical foundation for further improving LDEs production and providing an efficient way to enhance the effects of biological and enzymatic pretreatment for lignocellulosic biomass conversion.

Seryl-tRNA Synthetase Shows a Noncanonical Activity of Upregulating Laccase Transcription in Trametes hirsuta AH28-2 Exposed to Copper Ion. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0076823. [PMID: 37395668 PMCID: PMC10433817 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00768-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The function of Seryl-tRNA synthetase in fungi during gene transcription regulation beyond translation has not been reported. Here, we report a seryl-tRNA synthetase, ThserRS, which can negatively regulate laccase lacA transcription in Trametes hirsuta AH28-2 under exposure to copper ion. ThserRS was obtained through yeast one-hybrid screening using a bait sequence of lacA promoter (-502 to -372 bp). ThserRS decreased while lacA increased at the transcription level in T. hirsuta AH28-2 in the first 36 h upon CuSO4 induction. Then, ThserRS was upregulated, and lacA was downregulated. ThserRS overexpression in T. hirsuta AH28-2 resulted in a decrement in lacA transcription and LacA activity. By comparison, ThserRS silencing led to increased LacA transcripts and activity. A minimum of a 32-bp DNA fragment containing two putative xenobiotic response elements could interact with ThserRS, with a dissociation constant of 919.9 nM. ThserRS localized in the cell cytoplasm and nucleus in T. hirsuta AH28-2 and was heterologously expressed in yeast. ThserRS overexpression also enhanced mycelial growth and oxidative stress resistance. The transcriptional level of several intracellular antioxidative enzymes in T. hirsuta AH28-2 was upregulated. Our results demonstrate a noncanonical activity of SerRS that acts as a transcriptional regulation factor to upregulate laccase expression at an early stage after exposure to copper ions. IMPORTANCE Seryl-tRNA synthetase is well known for the attachment of serine to the corresponding cognate tRNA during protein translation. In contrast, its functions beyond translation in microorganisms are underexplored. We performed in vitro and cell experiments to show that the seryl-tRNA synthetase in fungi with no UNE-S domain at the carboxyl terminus can enter the nucleus, directly interact with the promoter of the laccase gene, and negatively regulate the fungal laccase transcription early upon copper ion induction. Our study deepens our understanding of the Seryl-tRNA synthetase noncanonical activities in microorganisms. It also demonstrates a new transcription factor for fungal laccase transcription.

Abstract
Microbial co-culture simulates the natural ecosystem through the combination of artificial microbes. This approach has been widely applied in the study of activating silent genes to reveal novel secondary metabolites. However, there are still challenges in determining the biosynthetic pathways. In this study, the effects of microbial co-culture on the morphology of the microbes were verified by the morphological observation. Subsequently, through the strategy combining substrate feeding, stable isotope labeling, and gene expression analysis, the biosynthetic pathways of five benzoic acid derivatives N1-N4 and N7 were demonstrated: the secondary metabolite 10-deoxygerfelin of A. sydowii acted as an inducer to induce B. subtilis to produce benzoic acid, which was further converted into 3-OH-benzoic acid by A. sydowii. Subsequently, A. sydowii used 3-OH-benzoic acid as the substrate to synthesize the new compound N2, and then N1, N3, N4, and N7 were biosynthesized upon the upregulation of hydrolase, hydroxylase, and acyltransferase during co-culture. The plate zone analysis suggested that the biosynthesis of the newly induced compounds N1-N4 was mainly attributed to A. sydowii, and both A. sydowii and B. subtilis were indispensable for the biosynthesis of N7. This study provides an important basis for a better understanding of the interactions among microorganisms, providing new ideas for studying the biosynthetic pathways of the newly induced secondary metabolites in co-culture.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1176352.

Abstract
A highly efficient strategy using Copper-Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine (GHK-Cu) as a novel inducer was developed to enhance laccase production by Trametes versicolor. After medium optimization, laccase activity increased by 12.77-fold compared to that without GHK-Cu. The laccase production of 1113.8 U L-1 was obtained by scaling-up culture in 5-L stirring tank. The laccase production induced by CuSO4 was poorer than that of GHK-Cu at the same mole concentration. GHK-Cu could increase the permeability of cell membrane with less damage, and it facilitated the adsorption, accumulation, and utilization of copper by fungal cells, which was beneficial for laccase synthesis. GHK-Cu induced better expression of laccase related genes than that of CuSO4, resulting in higher laccase production. This study provided a useful method for induced production of laccase by applying GHK chelated metal ion as a non-toxic inducer, which reduced the safety risk of laccase broth and provided the potential application of crude laccase in food industry. In addition, GHK can be used as the carrier of different metal ions to enhance the production of other metalloenzymes.

Valorization of Lignin and Its Derivatives Using Yeast. Processes (Basel) 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/pr10102004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
As the third most plentiful biopolymer after other lignocellulosic derivates such as cellulose and hemicellulose, lignin carries abundant potential as a substitute for petroleum-based products. However, the efficient, practical, value-added product valorization of lignin remains quite challenging. Although several studies have reviewed the valorization of lignin by microorganisms, this present review covers recent studies on the valorization of lignin by employing yeast to obtain products such as single-cell oils (SCOs), enzymes, and other chemical compounds. The use of yeasts has been found to be suitable for the biological conversion of lignin and might provide new insights for future research to develop a yeast strain for lignin to produce other valuable chemical compounds.

Abstract
Pleurotus eryngii var. ferulae, a fungus of the genus Pleurotus, efficiently degrades lignin, especially during co-cultivation with other fungi. However, low transformation efficiency and heterologous gene expression restrict systematic studies of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic control of natural products in this mushroom. In this study, the homologous resistance marker carboxin (cbx) was used to establish a polyethylene glycol-mediated transformation (PMT) system in P. eryngii var. ferulae. Optimization of the transformation process greatly improved the number of positive transformants. In particular, we optimized: (i) protoplast preparation and regeneration; (ii) screening methods; and (iii) transformation-promoting factors. The optimized transformation efficiency reached 72.7 CFU/μg, which is higher than the average level of Pleurotus sp. (10–40 CFU/μg). Moreover, three endogenous promoters (Ppfgpd1, Ppfgpd2, and Ppfsar1) were screened and evaluated for different transcription initiation characteristics. A controllable overexpression system was established using these three promoters that satisfied various heterologous gene expression requirements, such as strong or weak, varied, or stable expression levels. This study lays the foundation for recombinant protein expression in P. eryngii var. ferulae and provides a method to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms and secondary metabolic pathway modifications.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Involved in Light-Induced Primordium Differentiation in Pleurotus eryngii. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 23:ijms23010435. [PMID: 35008859 PMCID: PMC8745762 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23010435] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Revised: 12/26/2021] [Accepted: 12/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Pleurotus eryngii, a highly valued edible fungus, is one of the major commercially cultivated mushrooms in China. The development of P. eryngii, especially during the stage of primordium differentiation, is easily affected by light. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the response of primordium differentiation to light remains unknown. In the present study, primordium expression profiles under blue-light stimulation, red-light stimulation, and exposure to darkness were compared using high-throughput sequencing. A total of 16,321 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified from three comparisons. GO enrichment analysis showed that a large number of DEGs were related to light stimulation and amino acid biosynthesis. KEGG analyses demonstrated that the MAPK signaling pathway, oxidative phosphorylation pathway, and RNA transport were most active during primordium differentiation. Furthermore, it was predicted that the blue-light photoreceptor WC-1 and Deoxyribodipyrimidine photolyase PHR play important roles in the primordium differentiation of P. eryngii. Taken together, the results of this study provide a speculative mechanism that light induces primordium differentiation and a foundation for further research on fruiting body development in P. eryngii.

Abstract
Schizophyllum commune (S. commune) polysaccharides are biomacromolecules with multiple biological activities and wide applications. In this study, polysaccharide production through submerged fermentation of S. commune using different surfactants was investigated. The addition of 1 g/L of polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) at the beginning of the fermentation showed the best promotional effects on collective exopolysaccharide (EPS) production (which increased by 37.17%) while shortening the production cycle by 2 days. The monosaccharide composition of the EPS produced when the added Tween 80 was similar to that of the control; however, the molecular weight (Mw) was lower. Notably, the addition of Tween 80 significantly increased the ATP levels and the transcription levels of phosphoglucomutase and β-glucan synthase genes in the polysaccharide synthesis pathway. The addition of Tween 80 reduced the pellet size of the mycelium compared to that of the control, but did not significantly change the microstructure of the mycelial cells. This study proposes an efficient strategy for the production of polysaccharides through submerged fermentation of S. commune, and elucidates the detailed mechanism of using Tween 80 as a fermentation stimulatory reagent.

Abstract
The small subunit, ssPOXA3a/b, and the large subunit, POXA3, are indispensable components of typical heterodimeric laccase (Lacc2) in white rot fungi. However, the enzymatic and biological functions of ssPOXA3a/b remain unclear. The present study revealed that neither ssPOXA3a nor ssPOXA3b per se has a catalytic ability, whereas their combination with POXA3 (and especially ssPOXA3b) enhances the activity, thermostability, and pH stability of POXA3. In Pleurotus eryngii var. ferulae, there was no regulatory relationship between ssPOXA3a/b and POXA3 at the transcriptional level. However, sspoxa3a/b overexpression had a negative feedback effect on lacc6 transcription. By contrast, poxa3 transcripts had no effect on any other laccase isoenzyme. Overexpression of sspoxa3a/b resulted in small fungal pellets, thin mycelial walls, and facilitated laccase secretion. However, poxa3 overexpression had no influence on pellet morphology. Collectively, this work elucidated the functions of ssPOXA3a/b and laid an empirical foundation for the development of high-yield laccase.

Coprinopsis cinerea uses laccase Lcc9 as a defense strategy to eliminate oxidative stress during fungal-fungal interactions. Appl Environ Microbiol 2021; 88:e0176021.

Abstract
Frequently, laccases are triggered during fungal cocultivation for overexpression. The function of these activated laccases during coculture has not been clarified. Previously, we reported that Gongronella sp. w5 (w5) (Mucoromycota, Mucoromycetes) specifically triggered the laccase Lcc9 overexpression in Coprinopsis cinerea (Basidiomycota, Agaricomycetes). To systematically analyze the function of the overexpressed laccase during fungal interaction, C. cinerea mycelia before and after the initial Lcc9 overexpression were chosen for transcriptome analysis. Results showed that accompanied by specific utilization of fructose as carbohydrate substrate, oxidative stress derived from antagonistic compounds secreted by w5 appears to be a signal critical for laccase production in C. cinerea. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) decrease in the C. cinerea wild-type strain followed the increase in laccase production and then, lcc9 transcription and laccase activity stopped. By comparison, increased H2O2 content and mycelial ROS levels were observed during the entire cocultivation in lcc9 silenced C. cinerea strains. Moreover, lcc9 silencing slowed down the C. cinerea mycelial growth, affected hyphal morphology, and decreased the asexual sporulation in coculture. Our results showed that intracellular ROS acted as signal molecules to stimulate defense responses by C. cinerea with the expression of oxidative stress response regulator Skn7 and various detoxification proteins. Lcc9 takes part as a defense strategy to eliminate oxidative stress during the interspecific interaction with w5. Importance: The overproduction of laccase during interspecific fungal interactions is notoriously known. However, the exact role of the up-regulated laccases remains underexplored. Based on comparative transcriptomic analysis of C. cinerea and gene silencing of laccase Lcc9, here we show that oxidative stress derived from antagonistic compounds secreted by Gongronella sp. w5 was a signal critical for laccase Lcc9 production in Coprinopsis cinerea. Intracellular ROS acted as signal molecules to stimulate defense responses by C. cinerea with the expression of oxidative stress response regulator Skn7 and various detoxification proteins. Ultimately, Lcc9 takes part as a defense strategy to eliminate oxidative stress and help cell growth and development during the interspecific interaction with Gongronella sp. w5. These findings deepened our understanding of fungal interactions in their natural population and communities.

Abstract
Ganoderic acid (GA), an important secondary metabolite of Ganoderma lucidum, exhibited many significant pharmacological activities. In this study, the biosynthetic mechanism of GAs was investigated by comparing metabolites and transcriptome dynamics during liquid superficial‐static culture (LSSC) and submerged culture (SC). LSSC was a better method to produce GA because thirteen GAs were identified from mycelia by UPLC‐QTOF‐MS, and the content of all GAs was higher in LSSC than in SC. Ergosterol was accumulated during the SC process in G. lucidum. Transcriptome dynamics analysis revealed CYP5150L8 was the key gene regulating lanosterol flux into GA biosynthesis. Other sixteen CYP450 genes were significantly higher expressed during the culture time in LSSC and could be potential candidate genes associated with the biosynthesis of different GAs. In addition, six of the ten expressed genes in ergosterol biosynthetic pathway shown upregulated at some time points in SC. These results not only provide a fundamental information of the key genes in ergosterol and GA biosynthetic pathway, but also provide directions for future elucidating the regulatory mechanisms of GAs in G. lucidum and enabling us to promote the development and utilization of LSSC at the industrial level.
