Abstract
Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) is a significant extracellular enzyme with diverse functions. CGTase is widely used in production of cyclic α-(1,4)-linked oligosaccharides (cyclodextrins) from starch via transglycosylation reaction. Recent discoveries of novel CGTases from different microorganisms have expanded its applications but natural CGTase have lower yield, leading to heterologous expression for increased production to meet various needs. Moreover, significant advancements in directed evolution approach have been explored to alter the molecular structure of CGTase to enhance its performance. This review comprehensively summarizes the strategies employed in heterologous expression to boost CGTase production and secretion in various host. It also outlines molecular engineering approaches aimed to improving CGTase properties, including product and substrate specificity, catalytic efficiency, and thermal stability. Additionally, a considerable stability against changes in temperature and organic solvents can be obtained by immobilization.

Abstract
Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) is an extracellular enzyme of the GH13 α-amylase family that catalyzes a unique intramolecular reaction known as cyclization to transform α-1, 4-glucans and similar starches into cyclodextrins. They also catalyze intermolecular transglycosylation reactions namely coupling, disproportionation, and some hydrolyzing effects on starch. The monomeric structures of the CGTase exhibit five domains (A, B, C, D, and E domains) with different molecular weights and amino acid sequences depending on the source. Among bacteria, Bacillus genus covers approximately 90% of the CGTase producers, while other genera like Klebsiella, Paenibacillus, and Thermoanaerobacter also shown decent contributions in recent studies. CGTase production is highly supported by alkaliphilic bacteria under submerged fermentation rather than solid-state fermentation. The bacterial sources, biochemical properties, production conditions, and structure of CGTases are compiled in this review. Cyclodextrins have the unique property of making inclusion complexes with various compounds, hence widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, laundry, and chemical sectors. This review presents a comprehensive view of CGTase produced by Bacillus spp., and other bacterial genera like Klebsiella, Paenibacillus, and Microbacterium. It also gives insight of the properties and recent biotechnological applications of cyclodextrins. KEY POINTS: • Transglycosylation reactions catalyzed by CGTase and their structural properties. • Comparative data of CGTase production by various genera and Bacillus spp. • Structures, properties, and applications of different cyclodextrins.

Engineering of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase improves the conversion efficiency of rebaudioside A to glucosylated steviol glycosides and increases the content of short-chain glycosylated steviol glycoside. Microb Cell Fact 2023; 22:113. [PMID: 37312096 DOI: 10.1186/s12934-023-02121-2] [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: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Compared with steviol glycosides, the taste of glucosylated steviol glycosides is better and more similar to that of sucrose. At present, cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) is primarily used to catalyze the conversion of steviol glycosides to glucosylated steviol glycosides, with soluble starch serving as a glycosyl donor. The main disadvantages of enzymatic transglycosylation are the limited number of enzymes available, the low conversion rates that result in low yields, and the lack of selectivity in the degree of glycosylation of the products. In order to fill these gaps, the proteome of Alkalihalobacillus oshimensis (also named Bacillus oshimensis) was used for mining novel CGTases. RESULTS Here, CGTase-15, a novel β-CGTase with a wide pH adaptation range, was identified and characterized. The catalyzed product of CGTase-15 tasted better than that of the commercial enzyme (Toruzyme® 3.0 L). In addition, two amino acid sites, Y199 and G265, which play important roles in the conversion of steviol glycosides to glucosylated steviol glycosides were identified by site-directed mutagenesis. Compared with CGTase-15, CGTase-15-Y199F mutant significantly increased the conversion rate of rebaudioside A (RA) to glucosylated steviol glycosides. Compared with CGTase-15, the content of short-chain glycosylated steviol glycosides catalyzed by CGTase-15-G265A mutant was significantly increased. Moreover, the function of Y199 and G265 was verified in other CGTases. The above mutation pattern has also been applied to CGTase-13 (a CGTase discovered by our laboratory with great potential in the production of glycosylated steviol glycosides), confirming that the catalytic product of CGTase-13-Y189F/G255A mutant has a better taste than that of CGTase-13. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report on the improvement of the sensory profiles of glycosylated steviol glycosides through site-directed mutagenesis of CGTase, which is significant for the production of glycosylated steviol glycosides.

Enhancing 2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid synthesis by weakening the acceptor specificity of CGTase toward glucose and maltose. Bioprocess Biosyst Eng 2023; 46:903-911. [PMID: 37103578 DOI: 10.1007/s00449-023-02875-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 04/11/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2023]
Abstract
2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2G) is a stable derivative of L-ascorbic acid (L-AA), which has been widely used in food and cosmetics industries. Sugar molecules, such as glucose and maltose produced by cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) during AA-2G synthesis may compete with L-AA as the acceptors, resulting in low AA-2G yield. Multiple sequence alignment combined with structural simulation analysis indicated that residues at positions 191 and 255 of CGTase may be responsible for the difference in substrate specificity. To investigate the effect of these two residues on the acceptor preference and the AA-2G yield, five single mutants Bs F191Y, Bs F255Y, Bc Y195F, Pm Y195F and Pm Y260F of three CGTases from Bacillus stearothermophilus NO2 (Bs), Bacillus circulans 251 (Bc) and Paenibacillus macerans (Pm) were designed for AA-2G synthesis. Under optimal conditions, the AA-2G yields of the mutants Bs F191Y and Bs F255Y AA-2G were 34.3% and 7.9% lower than that of Bs CGTase, respectively. The AA-2G yields of mutant Bc Y195F, Pm Y195F and Pm Y260F were 45.8%, 36.9% and 12.6% higher than those of wild-type CGTases, respectively. Kinetic studies revealed that the residues at positions 191 and 255 of the three CGTases were F, which decreased glucose and maltose specificity and increased L-AA specificity. This study not only proposes for the first time that the AA-2G yield can be improved by weakening the acceptor specificity of CGTase toward sugar byproducts, but also provides new insight on the modification of CGTase that catalyze the double-substrate transglycosylation reaction.

Abstract
In this paper, the cgt gene encoding cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) from Bacillus stearothermophilus was cloned into pWB980 plasmid for extracellular expression in Bacillus subtilis SCK6. Through adding a six-histidine affinity tag fused to the C-terminus, the recombinant CGTase could be purified by nickel ion affinity chromatography, and its molecular weight was approximately 76 kDa on SDS-PAGE. Then, the enzymatic properties were determined, and results were as follows: the optimum temperature and pH were identified as 40 ℃ and pH 5.0, respectively. CGTase had good tolerance to metal ions of Mn2+, Ca2+, and Mg2+. The enzyme activity was activated by Na+, Al3+, Fe3+, and Ni+, and it was remarkably inhibited by Cu2+ and Zn2+. To improve the aqueous solubility of rutin, CGTase was used to catalyze the transglycosylation reaction, and the conversion rate could reach as high as 80.13% under optimal conditions. Furthermore, the reaction mixture was treated with glucoamylase and microporous adsorbent resin. The yield of glycosyl-rutin was 56.1%, and its purity was 74.3%, which further improved the value of the product.

Abstract
In this study, site saturation mutagenesis was performed on the - 3 (R44, D86, S90, and D192) and - 6 subsite (Y163, G175, G176, and N189) of Bacillus stearothermophilus NO2 cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase to enhance its specificity for the donor substrate maltodextrin for 2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2G) preparation. The AA-2G yields produced by the mutants S90D, G176H, and S90D/G176H were 181, 171, and 185 g/L, respectively. Our previous study found that the mutant K228R/M230L also increased the AA-2G yield. Therefore, the mutants S90D, G176H, S90D/G176H, and K228R/M230L were further used to generate combinatorial mutants. Among these mutants, the highest AA-2G yield (217 g/L) was produced by S90D/K228R/M230L with 500 g/L maltodextrin as the glucosyl donor, which was 56 g/L higher than that produced by wild-type CGTase. In addition, AA-2G was prepared by adding isoamylase to hydrolyze α-1,6 glucosidic linkages in maltodextrin that could not be utilized by CGTase to improve the utilization rate of maltodextrin. The addition of isoamylase reduced the concentration of maltodextrin from 500 to 350 g/L, while the AA-2G yield remained high (208 g/L). The preparation of AA-2G by complexing isoamylase with mutant S90D/K228R/M230L reduced the maltodextrin concentration by 150 g/L, while the AA-2G yield increased by 47 g/L than preparation with wild-type CGTase alone, which laid a foundation for the large-scale preparation of AA-2G. KEY POINTS: • Mutants exhibited improved maltodextrin specificity. • Mutant S90D/K228R/M230L produced high yield of AA-2G with maltodextrin as substrate. • AA-2G was first synthesized by a combination of isoamylase and CGTase.

Abstract
Fisetin is a flavonoid that exhibits high antioxidant activity and is widely employed in the pharmacological industries. However, the application of fisetin is limited due to its low water solubility. In this study, glycoside derivatives of fisetin were synthesized by an enzymatic reaction using cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) from Paenibacillus sp. RB01 in order to improve the water solubility of fisetin. Under optimal conditions, CGTase was able to convert more than 400 mg/L of fisetin to its glycoside derivatives, which is significantly higher than the previous biosynthesis using engineered E. coli. Product characterization by HPLC and LC-MS/MS revealed that the transglycosylated products consisted of at least five fisetin glycoside derivatives, including fisetin mono-, di- and triglucosides, as well as their isomers. Enzymatic analysis by glucoamylase and α-glucosidase showed that these fisetin glycosides were formed by α-1,4-glycosidic linkages. Molecular docking demonstrated that there are two possible binding modes of fisetin in the enzyme active site containing CGTase-glysosyl intermediate, in which O7 and O4' atoms of fisetin positioned close to the C1 of glycoside donor, corresponding to the isomers of the obtained fisetin monoglucosides. In addition, the water solubility and the antioxidant activity of the fisetin monoglucosides were tested. It was found that their water solubility was increased at least 800 times when compared to that of their parent molecule while still maintaining the antioxidant activity. This study revealed the potential application of CGTase to improve the solubility of flavonoids.

Abstract
4α-Glucanotransferase (4α-GTase) is unique in its ability to form cyclic oligosaccharides, some of which are of industrial importance. Generally, low amount of enzymes is produced by or isolated from their natural sources: animals, plants, and microorganisms. Heterologous expressions of these enzymes, in an attempt to increase their production for applicable uses, have been widely studied since 1980s; however, the expressions are mostly performed in the prokaryotic bacteria, mostly Escherichia coli. Site-directed mutagenesis has added more value to these expressed enzymes to display the desired properties beneficial for their applications. The search for further suitable properties for food application leads to an extended research in expression by another group of host organism, the generally-recognized as safe host including the Bacillus and the eukaryotic yeast systems. Herein, our review focuses on two types of 4α-GTase: the cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase and amylomaltase. The updated studies on the general structure and properties of the two enzymes with emphasis on heterologous expression, mutagenesis for property improvement, and their industrial applications are provided.

[PMID: 34022479 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.125286] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2021] [Revised: 05/07/2021] [Accepted: 05/08/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Endo-β-1,3-glucanase with high specific activity is a prerequisite for enzymatic preparation of valuable β-oligoglucosides. Heterologous expression in Pichia pastoris GS115 with error-prone PCR technology was implemented, and the mutant strain 7 N12 was obtained. The mutant endo-β-1,3-glucanase showed efficient specific activities for degrading curdlan (366 U mg-1) and scleroglucan (274.5 U mg-1). Thereafter, one-step production of functional branched oligoglucosides was established with coupled fermentation of Pichia pastoris and Sclerotium rolfsii. During the fermentation process, the endo-β-1,3-glucanase secreted by Pichia pastoris GS115 can efficiently hydrolyse scleroglucan metabolized by Sclerotium rolfsii WSH-G01. The maximum yields of β-oligoglucosides in the shake flasks and 7-L bioreactor reached 1.73 g L-1 and 12.71 g L-1, respectively, with polymerization degrees of 2-17. The successful implementation of heterologous expression with error-prone PCR and the coupled fermentation simplified the multi-step enzymatic β-oligoglucoside preparation procedures, which makes it a potential strategy for industrial production of functional oligosaccharides.

Abstract
In this study, the cgt gene my20, which encodes cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) and was obtained by the metagenome sequencing of marine microorganisms from the Mariana Trench, was codon optimized and connected to pET-24a for heterologous expression in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Through shaking flask fermentation, the optimized condition for recombinant CGTase expression was identified as 20°C for 18 h with 0.4 mM of isopropyl β-D-L-thiogalactopyranoside. The recombinant CGTase was purified by Ni2+-NTA resin, and the optimum pH and temperature were identified as pH 7 and 80°C, respectively. Activity was stable over wide temperature and pH ranges. After purification by Ni2+-NTA resin, the specific activity of the CGTase was 63.3 U/mg after 67.3-fold purification, with a final yield of 43.7%. In addition, the enzyme was used to transform L-ascorbic acid into 2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2G). The maximal AA-2G production reached 28 g/L, at 40°C, pH 4, 24 h reaction time, 50 g/L donor concentration, and 50 U/g enzyme dosage. The superior properties of recombinant CGTase strongly facilitate the industrial production of AA-2G.

[PMID: 33741407 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiotec.2021.03.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2020] [Revised: 03/11/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Bacillus stearothermophilus α/β-cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (α/β-CGTase) is an excellent transglycosylase with broad potential for food application, but its expression level is low in Bacillus subtilis. In this study, the optimal signal peptide for α/β-CGTase expression was screened from 173 signal peptides in B. subtilis WS11. The α/β-CGTase activity in a 3-L fermentor reached 151.93 U⋅ mL-1, but substantial amounts of inclusion bodies were produced. The N-terminal 12 amino acids of α/β-CGTase were then replaced with the N-terminal 15 amino acids of a β-CGTase from the same family that has a high percentage of disorder-promoting amino acids. As a result, the inclusion bodies were significantly reduced, and the enzyme activity increased to 249.35 U mL-1, 2.3 times that of the strain constructed previously. Finally, the ppsE and sfp genes of B. subtilis WS11, which are related to lipopeptide biosurfactant synthesis, were knocked out to produce B. subtilis WS13. When B. subtilis WS13 was used to produce α/β-CGTase in a 3-L fermentor, 70 % less defoaming agent was required than with B. subtilis WS11. Furthermore, enzyme production and growth of WS13 were equivalent to those of WS11. This study is of great significance for future research to efficiently scale-up production of α/β-CGTase.
