Heliyon 2024; 10:e28064. [PMID: 38515717 PMCID: PMC10956057 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e28064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Amylases are enzymes that are known to hydrolyze starch. High efficiency of amylolytic enzymes allows them to compete in the industry with the technology of chemical hydrolysis of starch. A Bacillus licheniformis strain with high amylolytic activity was isolated from soil and designated as T5. The gene encoding α-amylase from B. licheniformis T5 was successfully expressed in both Escherichia coli (rAmyT5-E) and Pichia pastoris (as rAmyT5-P). According to the study, the recombinant α-amylases rAmyT5-E and rAmyT5-P exhibited the highest activity at pH 6.0 and temperatures of 70 and 80 °C, respectively. Over 80% of the rAmyT5-E enzyme activity was preserved following incubation within the pH range of 5-9; the same was true for rAmyT5-P after incubation at pH 6-9. N-glycosylation reduced the thermal and pH stability of the enzyme. The specific activity and catalytic efficiency of the recombinant AmyT5 α-amylase were also diminished by N-glycosylation.

Abstract
Within the last two decades, the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris (Komagataella phaffii) has become an important alternative to E. coli or mammalian cell lines for the production of recombinant proteins. Easy handling, strong promoters, and high cell density cultivations as well as the capability of posttranslational modifications are some of the major benefits of this yeast. The high secretion capacity and low level of endogenously secreted proteins further promoted the rapid development of a versatile Pichia pastoris toolbox. This chapter reviews common and new "Pichia tools" and their specific features. Special focus is given to expression strains, such as different methanol utilization, protease-deficient or glycoengineered strains, combined with application highlights. Different promoters and signal sequences are also discussed.

Abstract
Background -amylases catalyze the endo-hydrolysis of -1,4-D-glycosidic bonds in starch into smaller moieties. While industrial processes are usually performed at harsh conditions, -amylases from mainly the bacteria, fungi and yeasts are preferred for their stabilities (thermal, pH and oxidative) and specificities (substrate and product). Microbial -amylases can be purified and characterized for industrial applications. While exploring novel enzymes with these properties in the nature is time-costly, the advancements in protein engineering techniques including rational design, directed evolution and others have privileged their modifications to exhibit industrially ideal traits. However, the commentary on the strategies and preferably mutated residues are lacking, hindering the design of new mutants especially for enhanced substrate specificity and oxidative stability. Thus, our review ensures wider accessibility of the previously reported experimental findings to facilitate the future engineering work. Survey methodology and objectives A traditional review approach was taken to focus on the engineering of microbial -amylases to enhance industrially favoured characteristics. The action mechanisms of - and -amylases were compared to avoid any bias in the research background. This review aimed to discuss the advances in modifying microbial -amylases via protein engineering to achieve longer half-life in high temperature, improved resistance (acidic, alkaline and oxidative) and enhanced specificities (substrate and product). Captivating results were discussed in depth, including the extended half-life at 100C, pH 3.5 and 10, 1.8 M hydrogen peroxide as well as enhanced substrate (65.3%) and product (42.4%) specificities. These shed light to the future microbial -amylase engineering in achieving paramount biochemical traits ameliorations to apt in the industries. Conclusions Microbial -amylases can be tailored for specific industrial applications through protein engineering (rational design and directed evolution). While the critical mutation points are dependent on respective enzymes, formation of disulfide bridge between cysteine residues after mutations is crucial for elevated thermostability. Amino acids conversion to basic residues was reported for enhanced acidic resistance while hydrophobic interaction resulted from mutated hydrophobic residues in carbohydrate-binding module or surface-binding sites is pivotal for improved substrate specificity. Substitution of oxidation-prone methionine residues with non-polar residues increases the enzyme oxidative stability. Hence, this review provides conceptual advances for the future microbial -amylases designs to exhibit industrially significant characteristics. However, more attention is needed to enhance substrate specificity and oxidative stability since they are least reported.

Strategies for Optimizing the Production of Proteins and Peptides with Multiple Disulfide Bonds. Antibiotics (Basel) 2020; 9:antibiotics9090541.

Abstract
Bacteria can produce recombinant proteins quickly and cost effectively. However, their physiological properties limit their use for the production of proteins in their native form, especially polypeptides that are subjected to major post-translational modifications. Proteins that rely on disulfide bridges for their stability are difficult to produce in Escherichia coli. The bacterium offers the least costly, simplest, and fastest method for protein production. However, it is difficult to produce proteins with a very large size. Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris are the most commonly used yeast species for protein production. At a low expense, yeasts can offer high protein yields, generate proteins with a molecular weight greater than 50 kDa, extract signal sequences, and glycosylate proteins. Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic species maintain reducing conditions in the cytoplasm. Hence, the formation of disulfide bonds is inhibited. These bonds are formed in eukaryotic cells during the export cycle, under the oxidizing conditions of the endoplasmic reticulum. Bacteria do not have an advanced subcellular space, but in the oxidizing periplasm, they exhibit both export systems and enzymatic activities directed at the formation and quality of disulfide bonds. Here, we discuss current techniques used to target eukaryotic and prokaryotic species for the generation of correctly folded proteins with disulfide bonds.

A thermophilic and thermostable xylanase from Caldicoprobacter algeriensis: Recombinant expression, characterization and application in paper biobleaching. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 164:808-817. [PMID: 32698070 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.07.162] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2020] [Revised: 06/23/2020] [Accepted: 07/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
A novel xylanase gene xynBCA, encoding a polypeptide of 439 residues (XynBCA), was cloned from Caldicoprobacter algeriensis genome and recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The amino acid sequence analysis showed that XynBCA belongs to the glycoside hydrolase family 10. The purified recombinant enzyme has a monomeric structure of 52 kDa. It is active and stable in a wide range of pH from 3 to 10 with a maximum activity at 6.5. Interestingly, XynBCA was highly thermoactive with an optimum temperature of 80 °C, thermostable with a half-life of 20 min at 80 °C. The specific activity was 117 U mg-1, while the Km and Vmax were 1.247 mg ml-1, and 114.7 μmol min-1 mg-1, respectively. The investigation of XynBCA in kraft pulp biobleaching experiments showed effectiveness in releasing reducing sugars and chromophores, with best achievements at 100 U g-1 of pulp and 1 h of incubation. The comparative molecular modeling studies with the less thermostable Xylanase B from Clostridium stercorarium, revealed extra charged residues at the surface of XynBCA potentially participating in the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds with solvent molecules or generating salt bridges, therefore contributing to the higher thermal stability.

Fang W, Xue S, Deng P, Zhang X, Wang X, Xiao Y, Fang Z. AmyZ1: a novel α-amylase from marine bacterium Pontibacillus sp. ZY with high activity toward raw starches. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS 2019; 12:95. [PMID: 31044008 PMCID: PMC6477751 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-019-1432-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2019] [Accepted: 04/12/2019] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Starch is an inexpensive and renewable raw material for numerous industrial applications. However, most starch-based products are not cost-efficient due to high-energy input needed in traditional enzymatic starch conversion processes. Therefore, α-amylase with high efficiency to directly hydrolyze high concentration raw starches at a relatively lower temperature will have a profound impact on the efficient application of starch. RESULTS A novel raw starch digesting α-amylase (named AmyZ1) was screened and cloned from a deep-sea bacterium Pontibacillus sp. ZY. Phylogenetic analysis showed that AmyZ1 was a member of subfamily 5 of glycoside hydrolase family 13. When expressed in Escherichia coli, the recombinant AmyZ1 showed high activity at pH 6.0-7.5 and 25-50 °C. Its optimal pH and temperature were 7.0 and 35 °C, respectively. Similar to most α-amylases, AmyZ1 activity was enhanced (2.4-fold) by 1.0 mM Ca2+. Its half-life time at 35 °C was also extended from about 10 min to 100 min. In comparison, AmyZ1 showed a broad substrate specificity toward raw starches, including those derived from rice, corn, and wheat. The specific activity of AmyZ1 towards raw rice starch was 12,621 ± 196 U/mg, much higher than other reported raw starch hydrolases. When used in raw starch hydrolyzing process, AmyZ1 hydrolyzed 52%, 47% and 38% of 30% (w/v) rice, corn, and wheat starch after 4 h incubation. It can also hydrolyze marine raw starch derived from Chlorella pyrenoidosa, resulting in 50.9 mg/g DW (dry weight of the biomass) of reducing sugars after 4 h incubation at 35 °C. Furthermore, when hydrolyzing raw corn starch using the combination of AmyZ1 and commercial glucoamylase, the hydrolysis rate reached 75% after 4.5 h reaction, notably higher than that obtained in existing starch-processing industries. CONCLUSIONS As a novel raw starch-digesting α-amylase with high specific activity, AmyZ1 efficiently hydrolyzed raw starches derived from both terrestrial and marine environments at near ambient temperature, suggesting its application potential in starch-based industrial processes.
