Positive effect of phasin in biohydrogen production of non polyhydroxybutyrate-producing Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 395:130355.

Abstract
In this study, the goal was to enhance the tolerance of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 to biomass-based inhibitory compounds for biohydrogen production and evaluate various known genes that enhance the production of biochemicals in various hosts. The introduction of phaP, the major polyhydroxyalkanoate granule-associated protein that has been reported as a chaperone-like protein resulted in increased tolerance to inhibitors and leads to higher levels of hydrogen production, cell growth, and glucose consumption in the presence of these inhibitors. It was observed that the introduction of phaP led to an increase in the transcription of the hydrogenase gene, whereas transcription of the chaperone functional genes decreased compared to the wild type. Finally, the introduction of phaP could significantly enhance biohydrogen production by 2.6-fold from lignocellulosic hydrolysates compared to that of wild type. These findings suggested that the introduction of phaP could enhance growth and biohydrogen production, even in non-polyhydroxyalkanoate-producing strains.

Enhancement of biohydrogen production in Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 by overexpression of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene. Enzyme Microb Technol 2023; 168:110244. [PMID: 37196383 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2023.110244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 04/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
In the dark fermentation of hydrogen, development of production host is crucial as bacteria act on substrates and produce hydrogen. The present study aimed to improve hydrogen production through the development of Clostridium acetobutylicum as a superior biohydrogen producer. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), which produces NADH/NADPH for metabolites and energy in primary pathways, was introduced to enhance hydrogen production. The strain CAC824-G containing gapC that encodes GAPDH showed a 66.3 % higher hydrogen production than the wild-type strain, with increased NADH and NADPH pools. Glucose consumption and other byproducts, such as acetone, butanol, and ethanol, were also high in CAC824-G. Overexpression of gapC resulted in increased hydrogen production with sugars obtained from different biomass, even in the presence of inhibitors such as vanillin, 5-hydroxymethylfufural, acetic acid, and formic acid. Our results imply that overexpression of gapC in Clostridium is possible to expand the production of the reported biochemicals to produce hydrogen.
