Abstract
Pfu DNA polymerase is one of the most preferred molecular enzymes that is isolated from the hyperthermophilic Pyrococcus furiosus and used for high-throughput DNA synthesis by the polymerase chain reaction. Therefore, an efficient Pfu DNA polymerase production method is necessary for molecular techniques. In the present study, Pfu DNA polymerase was expressed in recombinant Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) and significant parameters for the biomass production were optimized using the central composite design which is the most popular method of response surface methodology. Induction conditions including cell density prior induction (OD600nm), post-induction temperature, IPTG concentration, and post-induction time and their interactions on biomass production were investigated. The maximum biomass production (14.1 g/L) in shake flasks was achieved using the following predicted optimal conditions: OD600nm before induction of 0.4 and the induction at 32 °C for 7.7 h, with 0.6 mM IPTG. Optimized culture conditions were implemented to scale up experiments. 22% and 70% increase in biomass production was achieved in 3 L and 10 L bioreactors, respectively as compared to initial biomass production observed in unoptimized conditions. Similary, a 30% increase of Pfu DNA polymerase production was obtained after the optimization. The polymerase activity of the purifed Pfu DNA polymerase was assessed by PCR amplification and determined as 2.9 U/μl by comparison with commercial Pfu DNA polymerase. The findings of this study indicated that the proposed fermentation conditions will contribute to further scale‑up studies to enhance the biomass for the production of other recombinant proteins.

Abstract
Since the first years of history, microbial fermentation products such as bread, wine, yogurt and vinegar have always been noteworthy regarding their nutritional and health effects. Similarly, mushrooms have been a valuable food product in point of both nutrition and medicine due to their rich chemical components. Alternatively, filamentous fungi, which can be easier to produce, play an active role in the synthesis of some bioactive compounds, which are also important for health, as well as being rich in protein content. Therefore, this review presents some important bioactive compounds (bioactive peptides, chitin/chitosan, β-glucan, gamma-aminobutyric acid, L-carnitine, ergosterol and fructooligosaccharides) synthesized by fungal strains and their health benefits. In addition, potential probiotic- and prebiotic fungi were researched to determine their effects on gut microbiota. The current uses of fungal based bioactive compounds for cancer treatment were also discussed. The use of fungal strains in the food industry, especially to develop innovative food production, has been seen as promising microorganisms in obtaining healthy and nutritious food.

Abstract
To reach an efficient and economical gas-phase bioreactor is still one of the most critical challenges in biotechnology engineering. The numerous advantages of gas-phase bioreactors (GPBs) as well as disadvantages of these bioreactors should be exactly recognized, and efforts should be made to eliminate these defects. The first step in upgrading these bioreactors is to identify their types and the results of previous research. In the present work, a summary of the studies carried out in the field of cultivation in these bioreactors, their classification, their components, their principles and relations governing elements, modeling them, and some of their inherent engineering aspects are presented. Literature review showed that inoculation of shoots, roots, adventurous roots, callus, nodal explants, anther, nodal segment, somatic embryo, hairy roots, and fungus is reported in 15, 2, 2, 2, 3, 2, 1, 1, 37, and 5 cases, respectively.

Evaluation of Different Standard Amino Acids to Enhance the Biomass, Lipid, Fatty Acid, and γ-Linolenic Acid Production in Rhizomucor pusillus and Mucor circinelloides. Front Nutr 2022; 9:876817. [PMID: 35592629 PMCID: PMC9112836 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.876817] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Accepted: 03/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, 18 standard amino acids were tested as a single nitrogen source on biomass, total lipid, total fatty acid (TFA) production, and yield of γ-linolenic acid (GLA) in Rhizomucor pusillus AUMC 11616.A and Mucor circinelloides AUMC 6696.A isolated from unusual habitats. Grown for 4 days at 28°C, shaking at 150 rpm, the maximum fungal biomass for AUMC 6696.A was 14.6 ± 0.2 g/L with arginine and 13.68 ± 0.1 g/L with asparagine, when these amino acids were used as single nitrogen sources, while AUMC 11616.A maximum biomass was 10.73 ± 0.8 g/L with glycine and 9.44 ± 0.6 g/L with valine. These were significantly higher than the ammonium nitrate control (p < 0.05). The highest levels of TFA were achieved with glycine for AUMC 11616.A, 26.2 ± 0.8% w/w of cell dry weight, and glutamic acid for AUMC 6696.A, 23.1 ± 1.3%. The highest GLA yield was seen with proline for AUMC 11616.A, 13.4 ± 0.6% w/w of TFA, and tryptophan for AUMC 6696.A, 12.8 ± 0.3%, which were 38% and 25% higher than the ammonium tartrate control. The effects of environmental factors such as temperature, pH, fermentation time, and agitation speed on biomass, total lipids, TFA, and GLA concentration of the target strains have also been investigated. Our results demonstrated that nitrogen assimilation through amino acid metabolism, as well as the use of glucose as a carbon source and abiotic factors, are integral to increasing the oleaginicity of tested strains. Few studies have addressed the role of amino acids in fermentation media, and this study sheds light on R. pusillus and M. circinelloides as promising candidates for the potential applications of amino acids as nitrogen sources in the production of lipids.

Abstract
Fructooligosaccharides (FOSs)—fructose-based oligosaccharides—are typical prebiotics with health-promoting effects in humans and animals. The trisaccharide 1-kestotriose is the most attractive inulin-type FOS. We previously reported a recombinant sucrose:sucrose 1-fructosyltransferase (1-SST, EC 2.4.1.99) from Schedonorus arundinaceus (Sa) that efficiently converts sucrose into 1-kestotriose. In this study, Pichia pastoris PGFT6x-308 constitutively expressing nine copies of the Sa1-SST gene displayed fructosyltransferase activity in undisrupted biomass (49.8 U/ml) and culture supernatant (120.7 U/ml) in fed-batch fermentation (72 hr) with sugarcane molasses. Toluene permeabilization increased 2.3-fold the Sa1-SSTrec activity of whole cells entrapped in calcium-alginate beads. The reaction with refined or raw sugar (600 g/l) yielded 1-kestotriose and 1,1-kestotetraose in a ratio of 8:2 with their sum representing above 55% (wt/wt) of total carbohydrates. The FOSs yield decreased to 45% (wt/wt) when sugarcane syrup and molasses were used as cheaper sucrose sources. The beads retained 80% residual Sa1-SSTrec activity after a 30-day batchwise operation with refined cane sugar at 30°C and pH 5.5. The immobilized biocatalyst is attractive for the continuous production of short-chain FOSs, most particularly 1-kestotriose.

Abstract
Streptomyces sp. 2M21 was evaluated for keratinase production in bioreactors using chicken feathers. Firstly, optimization of bioengineering parameters (agitation and aeration rates) using Response Surface Methodology was carried out in 2 L bioreactors. Optimized conditions identified by the modified quadratic model were verified as 150 rpm and 1 vvm experimentally corresponding to 351 U/ml of keratinase activity. Moreover, scaling up sequentially to 20 L bioreactors was implemented using constant impeller tip speed and constant mass transfer coefficient as key scale-up parameters. The keratinase activity in 5, 10 and 20 L bioreactors showed similar results with the one of shake flasks (412 U/ml) and 2 L bioreactors (351 U/ml)with respect to the keratinase activity values of 336, 385 and 344 U/ml, respectively. The results suggest keratinase production by evaluating chicken feathers in commercial level. Furthermore, this study has potential to contribute industrial scale production of keratinase by Streptomyces sp. 2M21 using the proposed bioreactor conditions.
