Abstract
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are enzymes that catalyze the dismutation of the superoxide radical anion into O2 and H2O2 in a two-step reaction. They are ubiquitous to all forms of life and four different types of metal centers are detected, dividing this class of enzymes into Cu-/Zn-, Ni-, Mn-, and Fe-SODs. In this study, a superoxide dismutase from the thermophilic bacteria Thermobifida fusca (TfSOD) was cloned and expressed before the recombinant enzyme was characterized. The enzyme was found to be active for superoxide dismutation measured by inhibition of cytochrome c oxidation and the inhibition of the autoxidation of pyrogallol. Its pH-optimum was determined to be 7.5, while it has a broad temperature optimum ranging from 20 to 90 °C. Combined with the Tm that was found to be 78.5 ± 0.5 °C at pH 8.0, TfSOD can be defined as a thermostable enzyme. Moreover, the crystal structure of TfSOD was determined and refined to 1.25 Å resolution. With electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, it was confirmed that iron is the metal co-factor of TfSOD. The cell potential (Em) for the TfSOD-Fe3+/TfSOD-Fe2+ redox couple was determined to be 287 mV.

BIORESOUR BIOPROCESS 2023; 10:36.

Abstract
It is of great significance to utilize CO2 as feedstock to synthesize biobased products, particularly single cell protein (SCP) as the alternative food and feed. Bioelectrochemical system (BES) driven by clean electric energy has been regarded as a promising way for Cupriavidus necator to produce SCP from CO2 directly. At present, the key problem of culturing C. necator in BES is that reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated in cathode chamber are harmful to bacterial growth. Therefore, it is necessary to find a solution to mitigate the negative effect of ROS. In this study, we constructed a number of C. necator strains displayed with superoxide dismutase (SOD), which allowed the decomposition of superoxide anion radical. The effects of promoters and signal peptides on the cell surface displayed SOD were analyzed. The proteins displayed on the surface were further verified by the fluorescence experiment. Finally, the growth of C. necator CMS incorporating a pBAD-SOD-E-tag-IgAβ plasmid could achieve 4.9 ± 1.0 of OD600 by 7 days, equivalent to 1.7 ± 0.3 g/L dry cell weight (DCW), and the production rate was 0.24 ± 0.04 g/L/d DCW, around 2.7-fold increase than the original C. necator CMS (1.8 ± 0.3 of OD600). This study can provide an effective and novel strategy of cultivating strains for the production of CO2-derived SCP or other chemicals in BES.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is one of the most important antioxidant enzymes that can reduce oxidative stress in the cell environment. Nowadays, bacterial sources of enzyme are commercially applicable in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, but the allergenic effect of proteins from non-human sources has been mentioned as disadvantage of these kinds of enzymes. In this study, to find the suitable bacterial SOD candidate for decreasing immunogenicity, the sequences of five thermophilic bacteria were selected as reference species. Then, linear and conformational B-cell epitopes of the SOD were analyzed by different servers. The stability and immunogenicity of mutant positions were also evaluated. The mutant gene was inserted into the pET-23a expression vector and transformed into E. Coli BL21 (DE3) for expression of the recombinant enzyme. Afterward, the expression of the mutant enzyme was evaluated by SDS-PAGE analysis and the recombinant enzyme activity was assessed. Anoxybacillus gonensis was selected as a reasonable SOD source according to BLAST search, physicochemical properties analysis, and prediction of allergenic features. Regarding our results, five residues including E84, E142, K144, G147, and M148 were predicted as candidates for mutagenesis. Finally, the K144A was chosen as the final modification due to the increase in the stability of the enzyme and decreased immunogenicity of the enzyme as well. The enzyme activity was 240 U/ml at room temperature. Alternation in K144 to alanine caused increased stability of the enzyme. In silico studies confirmed non-antigenic protein after mutation.

Abstract
Thermus thermophilus is an attractive species in the bioindustry due to its valuable natural products, abundant thermophilic enzymes, and promising fermentation capacities. However, efficient and versatile genome editing tools are not available for this species. In this study, we developed an efficient genome editing tool for T. thermophilus HB27 based on its endogenous type I-B, I-C, and III-A/B CRISPR-Cas systems. First, we systematically characterized the DNA interference capabilities of the different types of the native CRISPR-Cas systems in T. thermophilus HB27. We found that genomic manipulations such as gene deletion, mutation, and in situ tagging could be easily implemented by a series of genome-editing plasmids carrying an artificial self-targeting mini-CRISPR and a donor DNA responsible for the recombinant recovery. We also compared the genome editing efficiency of different CRISPR-Cas systems and the editing plasmids with donor DNAs of different lengths. Additionally, we developed a reporter gene system for T. thermophilus based on a heat-stable β-galactosidase gene TTP0042, and constructed an engineered strain with a high production capacity of superoxide dismutases by genome modification.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a fundamental antioxidant enzyme that neutralises superoxide ions, one of the main reactive oxygen species (ROS). Extremophile organisms possess enzymes that offer high stability and catalytic performances under a wide range of conditions, thus representing an exceptional source of biocatalysts useful for industrial processes. In this study, SODs from the thermo-halophilic Aeropyrum pernix (SODAp) and the thermo-acidophilic Saccharolobus solfataricus (SODSs) were heterologously expressed in transgenic tomato cell cultures. Cell extracts enriched with SODAp and SODSs showed a remarkable resistance to salt and low pHs, respectively, together with optimal activity at high temperatures. Moreover, the treatment of tuna fillets with SODAp-extracts induced an extension of the shelf-life of this product without resorting to the use of illicit substances. The results suggested that the recombinant plant extracts enriched with the extremozymes could find potential applications as dietary supplements in the nutrition sector or as additives in the food preservation area, representing a more natural and appealing alternative to chemical preservatives for the market.

Abstract
In a global context where the development of more environmentally conscious technologies is an urgent need, the demand for enzymes for industrial processes is on the rise. Compared to conventional chemical catalysts, the implementation of biocatalysis presents important benefits including higher selectivity, increased sustainability, reduction in operating costs and low toxicity, which translate into cleaner production processes, lower environmental impact as well as increasing the safety of the operating staff. Most of the currently available commercial enzymes are of mesophilic origin, displaying optimal activity in narrow ranges of conditions, which limits their actual application under industrial settings. For this reason, enzymes from extremophilic microorganisms stand out for their specific characteristics, showing higher stability, activity and robustness than their mesophilic counterparts. Their unique structural adaptations allow them to resist denaturation at high temperatures and salinity, remain active at low temperatures, function at extremely acidic or alkaline pHs and high pressure, and participate in reactions in organic solvents and unconventional media. Because of the increased interest to replace chemical catalysts, the global enzymes market is continuously growing, with hydrolases being the most prominent type of enzymes, holding approximately two-third share, followed by oxidoreductases. The latter enzymes catalyze electron transfer reactions and are one of the most abundant classes of enzymes within cells. They hold a significant industrial potential, especially those from extremophiles, as their applications are multifold. In this article we aim to review the properties and potential applications of five different types of extremophilic oxidoreductases: laccases, hydrogenases, glutamate dehydrogenases (GDHs), catalases and superoxide dismutases (SODs). This selection is based on the extensive experience of our research group working with these particular enzymes, from the discovery up to the development of commercial products available for the research market.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutases are the enzymes involved in dismutation of superoxide radicals into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The present work reports a thermostable Fe/Mn SOD of Geobacillus sp. strain PCH100 (GsSOD) isolated from glacial soil. Purified recombinant GsSOD is a dimeric protein of ~57 kDa that exhibited highest activity at a temperature of 10 °C and pH of 7.8. Maximum enzyme velocity and Michaelis constant of the GsSOD were 1098.90 units/mg and 0.62 μM, respectively. At 80 °C, thermal inactivation rate constant and half-life of GsSOD were 3.33 × 10-3 min-1 and 208 min, respectively. Interestingly, GsSOD tolerated a temperature of 100 °C and 130 °C up to 15 min and 5 min, respectively. Circular dichroism and differential scanning calorimetry confirmed thermostable nature of GsSOD. Apoenzyme of GsSOD regained enzymatic activity in the presence of Fe2+ and Mn2+ as metal ion cofactors. GsSOD was stable under varying concentrations of chemicals, namely ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, potassium cyanide, hydrogen peroxide, chloroform-ethanol, 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate, Tween-20, Triton X-100, urea, and guanidine hydrochloride. The enzyme exhibited >70% activity in presence of 10 mM metal ions. Owing to its thermostable nature and resistance to chemical inhibitors, GsSOD is a potential enzyme for industrial applications.

Abstract
To fight oxidative damage due to reactive oxygen species (ROS), cells are equipped of different enzymes, among which Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) (EC 1.11.1.15) play a key role. Prxs are thiol-based enzymes containing one (1-Cys Prx) or two (2-Cys Prx) catalytic cysteine residues. In 2-Cys Prxs the cysteine residues form a disulfide bridge following reduction of peroxide which is in turn reduced by Thioredoxin reductase (Tr) /Thioredoxin (Trx) disulfide reducing system to regenerate the enzyme. In this paper we investigated on Prxs of Thermus thermophilus whose genome contains an ORF TT_C0933 encoding a putative Prx, belonging to the subfamily of Bacterioferritin comigratory protein (Bcp): the synthetic gene was produced and expressed in E. coli and the recombinant protein, TtBcp, was biochemically characterized. TtBcp was active on both organic and inorganic peroxides and showed stability at high temperatures. To get insight into disulfide reducing system involved in the recycling of the enzyme we showed that TtBcp catalically eliminates hydrogen peroxide using an unusual partner, the Protein Disulfide Oxidoreductase (TtPDO) that could replace regeneration of the enzyme. Altogether these results highlight not only a new anti-oxidative pathway but also a promising molecule for possible future biotechnological applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an attractive therapeutic agent to ameliorate oxidative stress that is critical for the initiation and progression of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the short life of SOD limits its clinical application. In this study, we aim to examine the therapeutic effects of a hyperthermostable SOD from the Thermus thermophilus HB27 (TtSOD) for treatment of experimentally induced IBD. METHODS A recombinant TtSOD was expressed and purified from Escherichia coli, and its therapeutic effects were examined in 2 experimental IBD animal models. RESULTS In IBD induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid in zebrafish, TtSOD treatment decreased intestinal enlargement and attenuated neutrophil infiltration, resulting in alleviation of enterocolitis. In mice, SOD activity was substantially increased in the intestine after oral gavage of TtSOD, which ameliorated gut inflammation, preserved gut barrier function, and attenuated the severity of dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis. Furthermore, TtSOD inhibited lipopolysaccharide-induced production of reactive oxygen species and inflammatory responses in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that TtSOD possesses therapeutic activities toward experimentally induced IBD, offering new clinical treatment options for patients with IBD.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) were purified from sea buckthorn and chestnut rose by ammonium sulfate precipitation and anion-exchange chromatography, and the detection methods of water-soluble tetrazolium-1 (WST-1), nitrobluetetrazolium (NBT) and pyrogallol autoxidation (PA) for SOD activity were compared. WST-1 method was selected due to its coefficient of variation (CV) <6% in this study. Two SODs exhibited similar characteristics. Their molecular mass and isoelectric point were about 30 kDa and 4.8 to 5.0 estimated by electrophoresis, and the Km was 0.05 to 0.08 mmol/L, respectively. Dynamic light scattering analysis suggested their hydrodynamic radius distributes from 60 to 1500 nm. The activity of two SODs was unchanged at <80 °C or pH 2 to 9 or in simulated human gastric fluid. Their circular dichroism spectra suggested a main β-sheet structure, the fluorescence spectra reflected that the tryptophan residues of two SODs is partially exposed, these structures were rather stable at pH 2 to 9 or 50 to 90 °C. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an important antioxidant enzyme. SODs from sea buckthorn and chestnut rose were stable at high temperature or low pH or simulated gastric fluid. This result can provide a new approach for the potential application of SOD in the food and pharmaceutical fields.

Characteristics of a Novel Manganese Superoxide Dismutase of a Hadal Sea Cucumber ( Paelopatides sp.) from the Mariana Trench. Mar Drugs 2019; 17:md17020084. [PMID: 30717090 PMCID: PMC6410416 DOI: 10.3390/md17020084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2018] [Revised: 01/09/2019] [Accepted: 01/15/2019] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
A novel, cold-adapted, and acid-base stable manganese superoxide dismutase (Ps-Mn-SOD) was cloned from hadal sea cucumber Paelopatides sp. The dimeric recombinant enzyme exhibited approximately 60 kDa in molecular weight, expressed activity from 0 °C to 70 °C with an optimal temperature of 0 °C, and resisted wide pH values from 2.2⁻13.0 with optimal activity (> 70%) at pH 5.0⁻12.0. The Km and Vmax of Ps-Mn-SOD were 0.0329 ± 0.0040 mM and 9112 ± 248 U/mg, respectively. At tested conditions, Ps-Mn-SOD was relatively stable in divalent metal ion and other chemicals, such as β-mercaptoethanol, dithiothreitol, Tween 20, Triton X-100, and Chaps. Furthermore, the enzyme showed striking stability in 5 M urea or 4 M guanidine hydrochloride, resisted digestion by proteases, and tolerated a high hydrostatic pressure of 100 MPa. The resistance of Ps-Mn-SOD against low temperature, extreme acidity and alkalinity, chemicals, proteases, and high pressure make it a potential candidate in biopharmaceutical and nutraceutical fields.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are among the most important antioxidant enzymes and show great potential in preventing adverse effects during therapeutic trials. In the present study, cloning, expression, and characterization of a novel Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (Ps-Cu,Zn-SOD) from a hadal sea cucumber (Paelopatides sp.) were reported. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Ps-Cu,Zn-SOD belonged to a class of intracellular SOD. Its Km and Vmax were 0.0258 ± 0.0048 mM and 925.1816 ± 28.0430 units/mg, respectively. The low Km value of this enzyme represents a high substrate affinity and can adapt to the low metabolic rate of deep sea organisms. The enzyme functioned from 0 °C to 80 °C with an optimal temperature of 40 °C. Moreover, the enzyme activity was maintained up to 87.12% at 5 °C. The enzyme was active at pH 4 to 12 with an optimal pH of 8.5. Furthermore, Ps-Cu,Zn-SOD tolerated high concentration of urea and GuHCl, resisted hydrolysis by proteases, and maintained stability at high pressure. All these features demonstrated that the deep sea Ps-Cu,Zn-SOD is a potential candidate for application to the biopharmaceutical field.

Abstract
Background Superoxide dismutases (SOD) have been reported as the most relevant bacterial enzymes involved in cells protection from reactive oxygen species (ROS). These toxic species are often the product of heavy metal stress. Results Two genes, chrC and chrF, from TnOtchr genetic determinant of strain Ochrobactrum tritici 5bvl1 were cloned in Escherichia coli in order to overexpress the respective proteins. Both proteins were purified and characterized as superoxide dismutases. ChrC was confirmed as being a Fe-SOD, and the enzymatic activity of the ChrF, not inhibited by hydrogen peroxide or potassium cyanide, suggested its inclusion in the Mn-SOD family. This identification was supported by chemical quantification of total metal content in purified enzyme. Both enzymes showed a maximum activity between pH 7.2-7.5. ChrF retained nearly full activity over a broader range of pH and was slightly more thermostable than ChrC. The genes encoding these enzymes in strain O. tritici 5bvl1 were inactivated, developing single and double mutants, to understand the contribution of these enzymes in detoxification mechanism of reactive oxygen species induced by chromate. During chromate stress, assays using fluorescent dyes indicated an increase of these toxic compounds in chrC, chrF and chrC/chrF mutant cells. Conclusions In spite of the multiple genes coding for putative superoxide dismutase enzymes detected in the genome of O. tritici 5bvl1, the ChrC and ChrF might help the strain to decrease the levels of reactive oxygen species in cells.

Abstract
Lipolytic enzymes, esterases (EC 3.1.1.1) and lipases (EC 3.1.1.3), catalyze the hydrolysis of ester bonds between alcohols and carboxylic acids, and its formation in organic media. At present, they represent about 20% of commercialized enzymes for industrial use. Lipolytic enzymes from thermophilic microorganisms are preferred for industrial use to their mesophilic counterparts, mainly due to higher thermostability and resistance to several denaturing agents. However, the production at an industrial scale from the native organisms is technically complicated and expensive. The thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus (T. thermophilus) has high levels of lipolytic activity, and its whole genome has been sequenced. One esterase from the T. thermophilus strain HB27 has been widely characterized, both in its native form and in recombinant forms, being expressed in mesophilic microorganisms. Other putative lipases/esterases annotated in the T. thermophilus genome have been explored and will also be reviewed in this paper.

Abstract
Thermophiles are attractive microorganisms to study the adaptation of life in high temperature environment. It is revealed that superoxide dismutase (SOD) is essential for thermoadaptation of thermophiles. However, the SOD-mediated pathway of thermoadaptation remains unclear. To address this issue, the proteins interacted with SOD were characterized in Thermus thermophilus in this study. Based on co-immunoprecipitation and Western blot analyses, the results showed that 2-oxoisovalerate dehydrogenase α subunit was bound to SOD. The isothermal titration calorimetry analysis showed the existence of the interaction between SOD and 2-oxoisovalerate dehydrogenase α subunit. The bacterial two-hybrid data indicated that SOD was directly interacted with 2-oxoisovalerate dehydrogenase α subunit. Gene site-directed mutagenesis analysis revealed that the intracellular interaction between SOD and 2-oxoisovalerate dehydrogenase α subunit was dependent on their whole molecules. Therefore our study presented a novel aspect of SOD in the thermoadaptation of thermophiles by interaction with dehydrogenase, a key enzyme of tricarboxylic acid cycle.

A novel mechanism of protein thermostability: a unique N-terminal domain confers heat resistance to Fe/Mn-SODs. Sci Rep 2014; 4:7284.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutases (SODs), especially thermostable SODs, are widely applied in medical treatments, cosmetics, food, agriculture, and other industries given their excellent antioxidant properties. A novel thermostable cambialistic SOD from Geobacillus thermodenitrificans NG80-2 exhibits maximum activity at 70°C and high thermostability over a broad range of temperatures (20–80°C). Unlike other reported SODs, this enzyme contains an extra repeat-containing N-terminal domain (NTD) of 244 residues adjacent to the conserved functional SODA domain. Deletion of the NTD dramatically decreased its optimum active temperature (OAT) to 30°C and also impaired its thermostability. Conversely, appending the NTD to a mesophilic counterpart from Bacillus subtilis led to a moderately thermophilic enzyme (OAT changed from 30 to 55°C) with improved heat resistance. Temperature-dependant circular dichroism analysis revealed the enhanced conformational stability of SODs fused with this NTD. Furthermore, the NTD also contributes to the stress resistance of host proteins without altering their metal ion specificity or oligomerisation form except for a slight effect on their pH profile. We therefore demonstrate that the NTD confers outstanding thermostability to the host protein. To our knowledge, this is the first discovery of a peptide capable of remarkably improving protein thermostability and provides a novel strategy for bioengineering thermostable SODs.

Abstract
Many types of superoxide dismutases have been purified and characterized from various bacteria, however, a psychrophilic Mn-superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) has not yet been reported. Here, we describe the purification and the biochemical characterization of the psychrophilic MnSOD from Exiguobacterium sp. strain OS-77 (EgMnSOD). According to 16S rRNA sequence analysis, a newly isolated bacterium strain OS-77 belongs to the genus Exiguobacterium. The optimum growth temperature of the strain OS-77 is 20 °C. The EgMnSOD is a homodimer of 23.5 kDa polypeptides determined by SDS-PAGE and gel filtration analysis. UV-Vis spectrum and ICP-MS analysis clearly indicated that the homogeneously purified enzyme contains only a Mn ion as a metal cofactor. The optimal reaction pH and temperature of the enzyme were pH 9.0 and 5 °C, respectively. Notably, the purified EgMnSOD was thermostable up to 45 °C and retained 50% activity after 21.2 min at 60 °C. The differential scanning calorimetry also indicated that the EgMnSOD is thermostable, exhibiting two protein denaturation peaks at 65 and 84 °C. The statistical analysis of amino acid sequence and composition of the EgMnSOD suggests that the enzyme retains psychrophilic characteristics.

Abstract
A manganese superoxide dismutase from the thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum (CtMnSOD) was expressed in Pichia pastoris and purified to homogeneity. Its optimal temperature was 60°C with approximately 75% of its activity retained after incubation at 70°C for 60min. Recombinant yeast cells carrying C. thermophilum mnsod gene exhibited higher stress resistance to salt and oxidative stress-inducing agents than control yeast cells. In an effort to provide structural insights, CtMnSOD was crystallized and its structure was determined at 2.0Å resolution. The overall architecture of CtMnSOD was found similar to other MnSODs with highest structural similarities obtained against a MnSOD from the thermotolerant fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. In order to explain its thermostability, structural and sequence analysis of CtMnSOD with other MnSODs was carried out. An increased number of charged residues and an increase in the number of intersubunit salt bridges and the Thr:Ser ratio were identified as potential reasons for the thermostability of CtMnSOD.

Abstract
Our previous work has demonstrated the isolation of photosystem I (PSI) from spinach using ultrafiltration with a final purity of 84%. In order to get a higher purity of PSI and more importantly to develop a practical bioseparation process, key physiochemical properties of PSI and their dependence on operational parameters must be assessed. In this study, the effect of solution pH, one of the most important operating parameters for membrane process, on the property of PSI was examined. Following the isolation of crude PSI from spinach using n-dodecyl-beta-D: -maltoside as detergent, the isoelectric point, aggregation size, zeta potential, low-temperature fluorescence, atomic force microscopy imaging, secondary structure, and thermal stability were determined. Solution pH was found to have a significant effect on the activity, aggregation size and thermal stability of PSI. The results also suggested that the activity of PSI was related to its aggregation size.
