Abstract
This study aimed to screen a mutant of Candida utilis SE-172 with high selenite tolerance and glutathione (GSH) biosynthesis capability via 60Co γ-radiation mutagenesis to prepare selenium (Se)-enriched yeast. The maximal intracellular contents of GSH and organic Se of 22.94 mg/g and 1308.1 μg/g were obtained, respectively, under a batch culture of SE-172. The physiological mechanism underlying increased GSH and organic Se contents in Se/GSH-enriched C. utilis SE-172 was revealed based on assaying activities of γ-glutamylcysteine synthase (γ-GCS) involved in GSH biosynthesis and selenophosphate synthase (SPS) related to organic Se bioconversion, and by determining intracellular ATP and NADH contents and ATP/ADP and NADH/NAD+ ratios associated with energy supply and regeneration. Moreover, the effect of this selenized yeast on anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities in mice with colitis was investigated. The supplementation of Se/GSH-enriched yeast decreased the dextran sodium sulfate-induced damage to colon tissues, reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory factors [interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] in serum, increased the antioxidant-related enzyme [superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)] activities, and decreased the malondialdehyde content in colon. The Se/GSH-enriched C. utilis SE-172 showed potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities in mice with colitis.

Wu Y, Zhu M, Ouyang X, Qi X, Guo Z, Yuan Y, Dang Z, Yin H. Integrated transcriptomics and metabolomics analyses reveal the aerobic biodegradation and molecular mechanisms of 2,3',4,4',5-pentachlorodiphenyl (PCB 118) in Methylorubrum sp. ZY-1. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 356:141921. [PMID: 38588902 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141921] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
2,3',4,4',5-pentachlorodiphenyl (PCB 118), a highly representative PCB congener, has been frequently detected in various environments, garnering much attention across the scientific community. The degradation of highly chlorinated PCBs by aerobic microorganisms is challenging due to their hydrophobicity and persistence. Herein, the biodegradation and adaptation mechanisms of Methylorubrum sp. ZY-1 to PCB 118 were comprehensively investigated using an integrative approach that combined degradation performance, product identification, metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses. The results indicated that the highest degradation efficiency of 0.5 mg L-1 PCB 118 reached 75.66% after seven days of inoculation when the bacteria dosage was 1.0 g L-1 at pH 7.0. A total of eleven products were identified during the degradation process, including low chlorinated PCBs, hydroxylated PCBs, and ring-opening products, suggesting that strain ZY-1 degraded PCB 118 through dechlorination, hydroxylation, and ring-opening pathways. Metabolomic analysis demonstrated that the energy supply and redox metabolism of strain ZY-1 was disturbed with exposure to PCB 118. To counteract this environmental stress, strain ZY-1 adjusted both the fatty acid synthesis and purine metabolism. The analysis of transcriptomics disclosed that multiple intracellular and extracellular oxidoreductases (e.g., monooxygenase, alpha/beta hydrolase and cytochrome P450) participated in the degradation of PCB 118. Besides, active efflux of PCB 118 and its degradation intermediates mediated by multiple transporters (e.g., MFS transporter and ABC transporter ATP-binding protein) might enhance bacterial resistance against these substances. These discoveries provided the inaugural insights into the biotransformation of strain ZY-1 to PCB 118 stress, illustrating its potential in the remediation of contaminated environments.

Abstract
ATP is indispensable to the biosynthesis of both S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and glutathione (GSH) in yeast cells. To improve ATP supply for overproduction of SAM and GSH in Candida utilis CCTCC M 209298, an exogenous ATP6 gene from Arabidopsis thaliana was expressed in the parental strain to construct the mutant C. utilis ATP6 by genomic integration. The maximal production of SAM and GSH in the mutant increased by 46.6 and 28.7%, respectively, when compared with those obtained in the parental strain. The mechanism underlying improved SAM and GSH biosynthesis by exogenous ATP6 gene expression revealed that the mutant had higher activities of key enzymes involved in SAM and GSH biosynthesis as well as energy metabolism. Increased NADH availability and F0 F1 -ATPase activity subsequently resulted in improved ATP regeneration and intracellular ATP supply for SAM and GSH overproduction. The present study not only developed an effective method for improving SAM and GSH biosynthesis by energy metabolism regulation, but also offered a novel approach for efficient production of similar energy-consuming products in eukaryotic cells.

Abstract
S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM), which exists in all living organisms, serves as an activated group donor in a range of metabolic reactions, including trans-methylation, trans-sulfuration and trans-propylamine. Compared with its chemical synthesis and enzyme catalysis production, the microbial production of SAM is feasible for industrial applications. The current clinical demand for SAM is constantly increasing. Therefore, vast interest exists in engineering the SAM metabolism in cells for increasing product titers. Here, we provided an overview of updates on SAM microbial productivity improvements with an emphasis on various strategies that have been used to enhance SAM production based on increasing the precursor and co-factor availabilities in microbes. These strategies included the sections of SAM-producing microbes and their mutant screening, optimization of the fermentation process, and the metabolic engineering. The SAM-producing strains that were used extensively were Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, Candida utilis, Scheffersomyces stipitis, Kluyveromyces lactis, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Corynebacterium glutamicum, and Escherichia coli, in addition to others. The optimization of the fermentation process mainly focused on the enhancement of the methionine, ATP, and other co-factor levels through pulsed feeding as well as the optimization of nitrogen and carbon sources. Various metabolic engineering strategies using precise control of gene expression in engineered strains were also highlighted in the present review. In addition, some prospects on SAM microbial production were discussed.

Abstract
Effects of amino acids on co-production of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and glutathione (GSH) with Candida utilis CCTCC M 209298 were investigated. Both methionine and cysteine showed positive effects on improving intracellular SAM and GSH content simultaneously. Batch fermentative co-production of SAM and GSH was conducted in a 5L stirred fermentor, where the co-production of SAM and GSH was enhanced by 71.3% and 71.5% with 6g/L methionine and 6 mmol/L cysteine, respectively. Based on these results together with intracellular ATP levels during batch cultivation of C. utilis CCTCC M 209298, a two-stage amino acid addition strategy was developed by adding 6g/L methionine at 0 h and 6 mmol/L cysteine at 21 h. Under this ATP-oriented strategy, SAM and GSH biosynthesis was further promoted, and the co-production of SAM and GSH reached 669.3mg/L, which was increased by 124.6% compared to that without amino acid addition.
