Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) is a group of enzymes that act on phospholipid molecules, which is widely used in the fields of food and medicine. PLD is extracted from animals and plants with low transesterification activity and high price. Therefore, it is benefit to screen an efficient PLD producing strain from microorganisms. A highly productive strain of PLD with transphosphatidylation activity, named Streptomyces hiroshimensis SK43.001, was screened from soil in our laboratory and mutated using atmospheric room temperature plasma (ARTP). A mutant strain SK43.001-11 with the highest enzyme activity and superior genetic stability was obtained, and its fermentation enzyme activity was 5.3 U/mL, which was 82% increased comparing to wild strain. The purification of PLD showed that the specific enzyme activity increased to 49.48 U/mg, which was 54.37-fold higher than that of the crude enzyme, with a recovery of 32.31%. In addition, enzymatic properties of PLD have revealed that the optimal pH and temperature were 7.0 and 60 °C, respectively. Metal ion Mg2+ and surfactant Triton X-100 made the enzymatic activity increased by 16% and 100%, respectively. The reaction kinetic parameters showed that the mutant PLD had higher affinity for the substrate of egg PC and better catalytic efficiency with K m, V max and K cat of 30.20 mmol/L, 99.70 μmol/min and 76.33 s-1, respectively. This study may provide important inspiration for obtaining high enzyme activity strains with PLD.

Abstract
Owing to their numerous nutritional and bioactive functions, phospholipids (PLs), which are major components of biological membranes in all living organisms, have been widely applied as nutraceuticals, food supplements, and cosmetic ingredients. To date, PLs are extracted solely from soybean or egg yolk, despite the diverse market demands and high cost, owing to a tedious and inefficient manufacturing process. A microbial-based manufacturing process, specifically phospholipase D (PLD)-based biocatalysis and biotransformation process for PLs, has the potential to address several challenges associated with the soybean- or egg yolk-based supply chain. However, poor enzyme properties and inefficient microbial expression systems for PLD limit their wide industrial dissemination. Therefore, sourcing new enzyme variants with improved properties and developing advanced PLD expression systems are important. In the present review, we systematically summarize recent achievements and trends in the discovery, their structural properties, catalytic mechanisms, expression strategies for enhancing PLD production, and its multiple applications in the context of PLs. This review is expected to assist researchers to understand current advances in this field and provide insights for further molecular engineering efforts toward PLD-mediated bioprocessing.

Abstract
A phospholipase D high producing strain with transphosphatidylation activity that is suitable for phosphatidylserine synthesis was screened by our laboratory and named as Streptomyces cinnamoneum SK43.003. The enzyme structural and biochemical properties were investigated using the molecular biology method. A 1521-bp fragment of the phospholipase D gene from Streptomyces cinnamoneum SK43.003 was amplified by PCR and encoded for 506 amino acids. The primary structure contained two conserved HKD and GG/S motifs. The pld gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The purified enzyme exhibited the highest activity at a pH value of 6.0 andtemperature of 60°C. The enzyme was stable within a pH range of 4-7 for 24 h or at temperatures below 50°C. In addition, Triton X-100, Fe2+ , and Al3+ were beneficial to the enzyme activity, whereas Zn2+ and Cu2+ dramatically inhibited its activity. In a two-phase system, the enzyme could convert phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidylserine with a 92% transformation rate.

Abstract
The phospholipase pl-S.t gene of Sphingobacterium thalpophilum 2015 was cloned and the gene sequence was submitted to NCBI with Accession Number KX674735.1. The phylogenetic analysis showed that this PL-S.t was clustered to phospholipase D (PLD). As far as we know, the PL-S.t with a molecular mass of 22.5 kDa is the lowest of the currently purified bacterial PLDs, which belongs to a non-HKD PLD enzyme. This PL-S.t was resistant to a wide range of alkali pHs (7.5-9.0) after 1 h incubation, retaining more than 90% of its maximum activity. The PL-S.t activity can be enhanced by Ni2+, Co2+ and Mn2+. This PL-S.t has only one cysteine residue and fewer negatively-charged amino acids (AAs). The hydrogen bonds network was found around the cystein108, which may be beneficial to the stability and activity of PL-S.t in Ni2+ solution. This study has laid the foundation for further research on the molecular mechanism of the catalytic characteristics of low molecular weight alkalic PLD from S. thalpophilum 2015.

Abstract
Lysoplasmalogen (LyPls)‐specific phospholipase D (LyPls‐PLD) is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolytic cleavage of the phosphoester bond of LyPls, releasing ethanolamine or choline, and 1‐(1‐alkenyl)‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphate (lysoplasmenic acid). Little is known about LyPls‐PLD and metabolic pathways of plasmalogen (Pls). Reportedly, Pls levels in human serum/plasma correlate with several diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and arteriosclerosis as well as a variety of biological processes including apoptosis and cell signaling. We identified a LyPls‐PLD from Thermocrispum sp. strain RD004668, and the enzyme was purified, characterized, cloned, and expressed using pET24a(+)/Escherichia coli with a His tag. The enzyme's preferred substrate was choline LyPls (LyPlsCho), with only modest activity toward ethanolamine LyPls. Under optimum conditions (pH 8.0 and 50 °C), steady‐state kinetic analysis for LyPlsCho yielded Km and kcat values of 13.2 μm and 70.6 s−1, respectively. The ORF of LyPls‐PLD gene consisted of 1005 bp coding a 334‐amino‐acid (aa) protein. The deduced aa sequence of LyPls‐PLD showed high similarity to those of glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterases (GDPDs); however, the substrate specificity differed completely from those of GDPDs and general phospholipase Ds (PLDs). Structural homology modeling showed that two putative catalytic residues (His46, His88) of LyPls‐PLD were highly conserved to GDPDs. Mutational and kinetic analyses suggested that Ala55, Asn56, and Phe211 in the active site of LyPls‐PLD may participate in the substrate recognition. These findings will help to elucidate differences among LyPls‐PLD, PLD, and GDPD with regard to function, substrate recognition mechanism, and biochemical roles. Data Accessibility Thermocrispum sp. strain RD004668 and its 16S rDNA sequence were deposited in the NITE Patent Microorganisms Depositary (NPMD; Chiba, Japan) as NITE BP‐01628 and in the DDBJ database under the accession number AB873024. The nucleotide sequences of the 16S rDNA of strain RD004668 and the LyPls‐PLD gene were deposited in the DDBJ database under the accession numbers AB873024 and AB874601, respectively. Enzyme EC number EC 3.1.4.4

Abstract
Lipases and phospholipases are interfacial enzymes that hydrolyze hydrophobic ester linkages of triacylglycerols and phospholipids, respectively. In addition to their role as esterases, these enzymes catalyze a plethora of other reactions; indeed, lipases also catalyze esterification, transesterification and interesterification reactions, and phospholipases also show acyltransferase, transacylase and transphosphatidylation activities. Thus, lipases and phospholipases represent versatile biocatalysts that are widely used in various industrial applications, such as for biodiesels, food, nutraceuticals, oil degumming and detergents; minor applications also include bioremediation, agriculture, cosmetics, leather and paper industries. These enzymes are ubiquitous in most living organisms, across animals, plants, yeasts, fungi and bacteria. For their greater availability and their ease of production, microbial lipases and phospholipases are preferred to those derived from animals and plants. Nevertheless, traditional purification strategies from microbe cultures have a number of disadvantages, which include non-reproducibility and low yields. Moreover, native microbial enzymes are not always suitable for biocatalytic processes. The development of molecular techniques for the production of recombinant heterologous proteins in a host system has overcome these constraints, as this allows high-level protein expression and production of new redesigned enzymes with improved catalytic properties. These can meet the requirements of specific industrial process better than the native enzymes. The purpose of this review is to give an overview of the structural and functional features of lipases and phospholipases, to describe the recent advances in optimization of the production of recombinant lipases and phospholipases, and to summarize the information available relating to their major applications in industrial processes.

Abstract
It is necessary to develop new methods for the isolation of unknown actinomycetes from soils. To evaluate the effects of oligotrophic medium on the isolation of soil actinomycetes and develop a new isolation method, the Gause's synthetic medium was diluted to one tenth the recommended concentration in the present study. Soil dilution plate technique was used to isolate actinomycetes from the soil samples. Oligotrophy decreased actinomycete and streptomycete counts, as well as the number of antagonistic actinomycete species. Oligotrophy also decreased the number of actinomycete species in five samples. Some actinomycete species were cultured only on the oligotrophic medium, whereas other species could not be cultured. Oligotrophy decreased actinomycete counts more significantly for soils with organic matter content >40 g/kg. We used 16S rRNA sequence analysis to identify 22 actinomycete species that were only cultured on the oligotrophic medium. Oligotrophic medium was helpful for the isolation of Streptomyces spp., Micromonospora spp. and Streptosporangium spp. Slightly more than 80 % of the identified actinomycete species were biologically active. Therefore, we could draw a conclusion that oligotrophic medium could be helpful for the discovery of new antibiotic producers and the exploitation and utilization of new, biologically active compounds.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4) is a key enzyme involved in phospholipid catabolism, initiating a lipolytic cascade in membrane deterioration during senescence and stress, which was cloned from Jatropha curcas L., an important plant species as its seed is the raw material for biodiesels. The cDNA was 2,886 bp in length with a complete open reading frame of 2,427 bp which encoded a polypeptide of 808 amino acids including a putative signal peptide of 53 amino acid residues and a mature protein of 755 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 86 kD and a pI of 5.44, having two highly conserved HKD' motifs. Phylogenetic analysis indicated the J. curcas PLD alpha (JcPLDalpha) showed a high similarity to other PLD alpha from plants. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed that it was especially abundant in root, stem, leaf, endosperm and flower, weakly in seed. And the JcPLDalpha was increasedly expressed in leaf undergoing environmental stress such as salt (300 mM NaCl), drought (30% PEG), cold (4degreeC) and heat (50degreeC). The JcPLDalpha protein was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli and showed high enzymatic activities. Maximal activity was at pH 8 and 60degreeC.

Abstract
Organic solvent- and detergent-resistant proteases are important from an industrial viewpoint. However, they have been less frequently reported and only few of them are from actinomycetes. A metalloprotease from Streptomyces olivochromogenes (SOMP) was purified by ion exchange with Poros HQ and gel filtration with Sepharose CL-6B. Apparent molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated to be 51 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gelatin zymography. The activity was optimum at pH 7.5 and 50 degrees C and stable between pH 7.0 and 10.0. SOMP was stable below 45 degrees C and Ca(2+) increased its thermostability. Ca(2+) enhanced while Co(2+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+), Mn(2+), and Fe(2+) inhibited the activity. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and ethylene glycol-bis (beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, but not phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, aprotinin, and pefabloc SC, significantly suppressed the activity, suggesting that it might be a metalloprotease. Importantly, it is highly resistant against various detergents, organic solvents, and oxidizing agents, and the activity is enhanced by H(2)O(2). The enzyme could be a novel protease based on its origin and peculiar biochemical properties. It may be useful in biotechnological applications especially for organic solvent-based enzymatic synthesis.

Abstract
An extracellular phospholipase D (PLD(St)) was purified from Streptomyces tendae by two successive chromatographic steps on Sepharose CL-6B and DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B. Molecular weight of the PLD(St) was estimated to be approximately 43 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Maximal activity was at pH 8 and 60 degrees C, and the enzyme was stable at or below 60 degrees C and between pH 8 and 10, when assayed after 1.5 and 24 h, respectively. The enzyme activity had an absolute requirement of Ca(2+), and the maximum activity was at 2 mM CaCl(2). The Km and Vmax values for phosphatidyl choline were 0.95 mM and 810 micromol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. More importantly, PLD(St) could not catalyze transphosphatidylation of glycerol, L-serine, myo-inositol and ethanolamine, which have been extensively used to evaluate the activity. The result strongly suggests that PLD( St ) does not have the transphosphatidylation activity, thereby making it the first Streptomyces PLD possessing only hydrolytic activity. PLD(St) may therefore be a novel type of PLD enzyme.
