[PMID: 37981008 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2023.105047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/21/2023]
Abstract
The wide distribution of laccases in nature makes them involved in different biological processes. However, little information is known about how laccase participates in the defense machinery of bacteria against oxidative stress. The present study aimed to elucidate the oxidative stress response mechanism of Bacillus pumilus ZB1 and the functional role of bacterial laccase in stress defense. The oxidative stress caused by methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) significantly induced laccase activity and its transcript level. The morphological analysis revealed that the defense of B. pumilus ZB1 against oxidative stress was activated. Based on the proteomic study, 114 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were up-regulated and 79 DEPs were down-regulated. In COG analysis, 66.40% DEPs were classified into the category "Metabolism". We confirmed that laccase was up-regulated in response to MMS stress and its functional annotation was related to "Secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport and catabolism". Based on protein-protein interaction prediction, two up-regulated DEPs (YcnJ and GabP) showed interaction with laccase and contributed to the formation of laccase stability and adaptability. The overexpressed laccase might improve the antioxidative property of B. pumilus ZB1. These findings provide an insight and the guidelines for better exploitation of bioremediation using bacterial laccase. SIGNIFICANCE: Bacillus pumilus is a gram-positive bacterium that has the potential for many applications, such as bioremediation. The expression of bacterial laccase is significantly influenced by oxidative stress, while the underlying mechanism of laccase overexpression in bacteria has not been fully studied. Elucidation of the biological process may benefit the bioremediation using bacteria in the future. In this study, the differentially expressed proteins were analyzed using a TMT-labeling proteomic approach when B. pumilus was treated with methyl methanesulfonate (MMS). Reactive oxygen species induced by MMS activated the secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport, and catabolism in B. pumilus, including laccase overexpression. Moreover, the simultaneously up-regulated YcnJ and GabP may benefit the synthesis and the stability of laccase, then improve the antioxidative property of B. pumilus against environmental stress. Our findings advance the understanding of the adaptive mechanism of B. pumilus to environmental conditions.

[PMID: 38058637 PMCID: PMC10696099 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e22388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 11/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination seriously threatens nutritional safety and common health. Bacterial CotA-laccases have great potential to degrade AFB1 without redox mediators. However, CotA-laccases are limited because of the low catalytic activity as the spore-bound nature. The AFB1 degradation ability of CotA-laccase from Bacillus licheniformis ANSB821 has been reported by a previous study in our laboratory. In this study, a Q441A mutant was constructed to enhance the activity of CotA-laccase to degrade AFB1. After the site-directed mutation, the mutant Q441A showed a 1.73-fold higher catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) towards AFB1 than the wild-type CotA-laccase did. The degradation rate of AFB1 by Q441A mutant was higher than that by wild-type CotA-laccase in the pH range from 5.0 to 9.0. In addition, the thermostability was improved after mutation. Based on the structure analysis of CotA-laccase, the higher catalytic efficiency of Q441A for AFB1 may be due to the smaller steric hindrance of Ala441 than Gln441. This is the first research to enhance the degradation efficiency of AFB1 by CotA-laccase with site-directed mutagenesis. In summary, the mutant Q441A will be a suitable candidate for highly effective detoxification of AFB1 in the future.

Abstract
Cyclophilins (CyPs) are involved in basic cellular functions and a wide variety of pathophysiological processes. Many CyPs have been identified as the aetiological agent and influence on the immune system. In the present study, the physicochemical and immunologic characteristics of three proteins of CyPs family (CyPA, CyPB and CyPE) were analyzed. The results indicated that CyPE showed a closer evolutionary relationship with allergenic CyPA. The structure and antigenicity of CyPE was significantly similar with CyPA. B-cell epitopes of CyPE and CyPA were predicted via multiple immunoinformatics tools. Three consensus B-cell epitopes of CyPE and CyPAs were finally determined. To verify results of in silico analysis, three proteins of CyPs family (CyPA, CyPE and CyPB) were cloned and expressed from Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus. ELISA results indicated that the positive reaction rates of the three proteins to patient serum are CyPA (21.4%), CyPE (7.1%), and CyPB (0%), illustrating that the IgE activity was exhibited in CypA and CypE excluding CyPB. Structure and immunoinformatics analysis demonstrated that the RNA-binding motif of CyPE could reduce the immunogenicity of PPIase domain of CyPE. The reason that CyPB has no IgE activity might be the structure mutation of CyPB on B-cell epitopes.

Abstract
Laccases are widely used in industrial production due to their broad substrate availability and environmentally friendly nature. However, the pursuit of laccases with superior stability and increased heterogeneous expression to meet industry demands appears to be an ongoing challenge. To address this challenge, we resurrected five ancestral sequences of laccase BsCotA and their homologues. All five variants were successfully expressed in soluble and functional forms with improved expression levels in Escherichia coli. Among the five variants, three exhibited higher catalytic rates, thermal stabilities, and acidic stabilities. Notably, AncCotA2, the best-performing variant, displayed a kcat/KM of 7.5 × 105 M-1·s-1, 5.2-fold higher than that of the wild-type BsCotA, an improved thermo- and acidic stability, and better dye decolorization ability. This study provides a laccase variant with high application potential and presents a new starting point for future enzyme engineering.

Abstract
Laccase, a multicopper oxidase, is well known for its industrial potentials to remove environmental pollutants due to its low substrate specificity to oxidize phenols and thus catalytic versatility. Many efforts focused on the metabolic mechanism, yet to decipher the structural determinants responsible for the differentiation between substrates. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), a new substrate for laccase, is a mycotoxin with a formidable environmental threat to public health and food safety. In the present study, we combined biochemical, in silico mutational and molecular-docking data to gain an insight to the function of key residues in the active cavity close to the T1 copper site in a characterized recombinant laccase from Cerrena unicolor (rCuL). Kinetic data for computer-assisted virtual mutants established the binding affinity of hydrogen bonds and residues (Asn336, Asp207, Val391, and Thr165) in rCuL to AFB1. The augmented binding affinity to AFB1 may be related to the conformational rearrangements of the laccase and its ability to hydrogen-bond with the substrate. Furthermore, the optimal pH and temperature for rCuL and variants mediated AFB1 degradation may depend on their pH stability and thermostability. Our findings reinforce the importance of the structure-function relationship of fungal laccases in degrading AFB1, providing mechanistic guidance for future biocatalyst and bioengineering applications.

Abstract
The mechanism of bacterial adaption to manganese-polluted environments was explored using 50 manganese-tolerant strains of bacteria isolated from soil of the largest manganese mine in China. Efficiency of manganese removal by the isolated strains was investigated using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Bacillus safensis strain ST7 was the most effective manganese-oxidizing bacteria among the tested isolates, achieving up to 82% removal at a Mn(II) concentration of 2,200 mg/L. Bacteria-mediated manganese oxide precipitates and high motility were observed, and the growth of strain ST7 was inhibited while its biofilm formation was promoted by the presence of Mn(II). In addition, strain ST7 could grow in the presence of high concentrations of Al(III), Cr(VI), and Fe(III). Genome-wide analysis of the gene expression profile of strain ST7 using the RNA-seq method revealed that 2,580 genes were differently expressed under Mn(II) exposure, and there were more downregulated genes (n = 2,021) than upregulated genes (n = 559) induced by Mn stress. KAAS analysis indicated that these differently expressed genes were mainly enriched in material metabolisms, cellular processes, organism systems, and genetic and environmental information processing pathways. A total of twenty-six genes from the transcriptome of strain ST7 were involved in lignocellulosic degradation. Furthermore, after 15 genes were knocked out by homologous recombination technology, it was observed that the transporters, multicopper oxidase, and proteins involved in sporulation and flagellogenesis contributed to the removal of Mn(II) in strain ST7. In summary, B. safensis ST7 adapted to Mn exposure by changing its metabolism, upregulating cation transporters, inhibiting sporulation and flagellogenesis, and activating an alternative stress-related sigB pathway. This bacterial strain could potentially be used to restore soil polluted by multiple heavy metals and is a candidate to support the consolidated bioprocessing community.

Abstract
Prokaryotic laccases are emergent biocatalysts. However, they have not been broadly found and characterized in bacterial organisms, especially in lactic acid bacteria. Recently, a prokaryotic laccase from the lactic acid bacterium Pediococcus acidilactici 5930, which can degrade biogenic amines, was discovered. Thus, our study aimed to shed light on laccases from lactic acid bacteria focusing on two Pediococcus laccases, P. acidilactici 5930 and Pediococcus pentosaceus 4816, which have provided valuable information on their biochemical activities on redox mediators and biogenic amines. Both laccases are able to oxidize canonical substrates as ABTS, ferrocyanide and 2,6-DMP, and non-conventional substrates as biogenic amines. With ABTS as a substrate, they prefer an acidic environment and show sigmoidal kinetic activity, and are rather thermostable. Moreover, this study has provided the first structural view of two lactic acid bacteria laccases, revealing new structural features not seen before in other well-studied laccases, but which seem characteristic for this group of bacteria. We believe that understanding the role of laccases in lactic acid bacteria will have an impact on their biotechnological applications and provide a framework for the development of engineered lactic acid bacteria with enhanced properties.

Abstract
Laccases are enzymes able to catalyze the oxidation of a wide array of phenolic and non-phenolic compounds using oxygen as co-substrate and releasing water as by-product. They are well known to have wide substrate specificity and in recent years, have gained great biotechnological importance. To date, most well studied laccases are from fungal and mesophilic origin, however, enzymes from extremophiles possess an even greater potential to withstand the extreme conditions present in many industrial processes. This research work presents the heterologous production and characterization of a novel laccase from a thermoalkaliphilic bacterium isolated from a hot spring in a geothermal site. This recombinant enzyme exhibits remarkably high specific activity (>450,000 U/mg) at 70 °C, pH 6.0, using syringaldazine substrate, it is active in a wide range of temperature (20-90 °C) and maintains over 60% of its activity after 2 h at 60 °C. Furthermore, this novel spore-coat laccase is able to biodecolorize eight structurally different recalcitrant synthetic dyes (Congo red, methyl orange, methyl red, Coomassie brilliant blue R250, bromophenol blue, malachite green, crystal violet and Remazol brilliant blue R), in just 30 min at 40 °C in the presence of the natural redox mediator acetosyringone.

Enzymatic characterization, molecular dynamics simulation, and application of a novel Bacillus licheniformis laccase. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 167:1393-1405.

Abstract
A new laccase gene from newly isolated Bacillus licheniformis TCCC 111219 was actively expressed in Escherichia coli. This recombinant laccase (rLAC) exhibited a high stability towards a wide pH range and high temperatures. 170% of the initial activity was detected at pH 10.0 after 10-d incubation, and 60% of the initial activity was even kept after 2-h incubation at 70 °C. It indicated that only single type of extreme environment, such as strong alkaline environment (300 K, pH 12) or high temperature (370 K, pH 7), did not show obvious impact on the structural stability of rLAC during molecular dynamics simulation process. But the four loop regions of rLAC where the active site is situated were seriously destroyed when strong alkaline and high temperature environment existed simultaneously (370 K, pH 12) because of the damage of hydrogen bonds and salt bridges. Moreover, this thermo- and alkaline-stable enzyme could efficiently decolorize the structurally differing azo, triphenylmethane, and anthraquinone dyes with appropriate mediator at pH 3.0, 7.0, and 9.0 at 60 °C. These rare characteristics suggested its high potential in industrial applications to decolorize textile dyeing effluent.

Abstract
Reactive Black 5 (RB5) is a typical refractory azo dye. Widespread utilization of RB5 has caused a variety of environmental and health problems. The enzymatic degradation of RB5 can be a promising solution due to its superiority as an eco-friendly and cost-competitive process. Bacterial CotA-laccase shows great application prospect to eliminate hazardous dyes from wastewater. However, efficient decolorization of RB5 CotA-laccase generally requires the participation of costly, toxic mediators. In the present study, we modified the amino acids Thr415 and Thr418 near the type 1 copper site and the amino acid Gln442 at the entrance of the substrate-binding pocket of Bacillus pumilus W3 CotA-laccase to boost its RB5 decolorization activity based on molecular docking analysis and site-saturation mutagenesis. Through the strategies, two double site mutants T415D/Q442A and T418K/Q442A obtained demonstrated 43.94 and 52.64% RB5 decolorization rates in the absence of a mediator at pH 10.0, respectively, which were about 3.70- and 4.43-fold higher compared with the wild-type CotA-laccase. Unexpectedly, the catalytic efficiency of the T418K/Q442A to ABTS was enhanced by 5.33-fold compared with the wild-type CotA-laccase. The mechanisms of conferring enhanced activity to the mutants were proposed by structural analysis. In summary, the mutants T415D/Q442A and T418K/Q442A have good application potentials for the biodegradation of RB5. KEY POINTS: • Three amino acids of CotA-laccase were manipulated by site-saturation mutagenesis. • Decolorization rate of two mutants to RB5 was enhanced 3.70- and 4.43-fold, respectively. • The mechanisms of awarding enhanced activity to the mutants were supposed.

Abstract
Laccases have a huge potential in numerous environmental and industrial applications due to the ability to oxidized a wide range of substrates. Here, a novel laccase gene from the identified Bacillus velezensis TCCC 111904 was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. The optimal temperature and pH for oxidation by recombinant laccase (rLac) were 80 °C and 5.5, respectively, in the case of the substrate 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and 80 °C and 7.0, respectively, in the case of 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (2,6-DMP). rLac exhibited high thermostability and pH stability over a wide range (pH 3.0, 7.0, and 9.0). Additionally, most of the metal ions did not inhibit the activity of rLac significantly. rLac showed great tolerance against high concentration of NaCl, and 50.8% of its initial activity remained in the reaction system containing 500 mM NaCl compared to the control. Moreover, rLac showed a high efficiency in decolorizing different types of dyes including azo, anthraquinonic, and triphenylmethane dyes at a high temperature (60 °C) and over an extensive pH range (pH 5.5, 7.0, and 9.0). These unique characteristics of rLac indicated that it could be a potential candidate for applications in treatment of dye effluents and other industrial processes.

Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and zearalenone (ZEN) exert deleterious effects to human and animal health. In this study, the ability of a CotA laccase from Bacillus subtilis (BsCotA) to degrade these two mycotoxins was first investigated. Among the nine structurally defined chemical compounds, methyl syringate was the most efficient mediator assisting BsCotA to degrade AFB1 (98.0%) and ZEN (100.0%). BsCotA could also use plant extracts, including the Epimedium brevicornu, Cucumis sativus L., Lavandula angustifolia, and Schizonepeta tenuifolia extracts to degrade AFB1 and ZEN. Using hydra and BLYES as indicators, it was demonstrated that the degraded products of AFB1 and ZEN using the laccase/mediator systems were detoxified. Finally, a laccase of fungal origin was also able to degrade AFB1 and ZEN in the presence of the discovered mediators. The findings shed light on the possibility of using laccases and a mediator, particularly a natural plant-derived complex mediator, to simultaneously degrade AFB1 and ZEN contaminants in food and feed.

Abstract
In this study, a novel thermophilic bacterial strain was isolated from Tattapani hot spring located in the Chhattisgarh state of India. The laccase was produced via submerged fermentation and purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and anion exchange chromatography up to 13.7 fold. The 16S rRNA gene sequence and biochemical analysis revealed that the bacterial isolate is Bacillus sp. strain PC-3. The activity of extracellular crude laccase was determined to be 11.2 U/mL using 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) as a substrate. The SDS-PAGE revealed that the enzyme consists of single subunit with molecular size of 36 kDa. The laccase exhibited the maximum enzyme activity at temperature of 60°C and pH 7. Moreover, the laccase retained 99.1% of its original activity for 180 min and exhibited half-life of 3.75 h at 60°C. Similarly, the laccase retained 95% activity at pH 7 for 240 min and displayed significant activity at wider pH range. In addition, the laccase was used for functionalization of chitosan film and characterized for antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. Interestingly, the functionalized chitosan film showed the improved antioxidant and antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
Thermostable cellulases offer several advantages like higher rates of substrate hydrolysis, lowered risk of contamination, and increased flexibility with respect to process design. In the present study, a thermostable native endoglucanase nEG (EC 3.2.1.4) was purified and characterized from T. aurantiacus RCKK. Further, it was cloned in P. pastoris X-33 and processed for over expression. Expression of recombinant endoglucanase (rEG) of molecular size ~ 33 kDa was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and western blotting followed by in gel activity determination by zymogram analysis. Similar to nEG, the purified rEG was characterized to harbor high thermostability while retaining 50% of its initial activity even after 6- and 10-h incubation at 80 and 70 °C, respectively, and exhibited considerable stability in pH range 3.0-7.0. CD spectroscopy revealed more than 20% β-sheets in protein structure consistently when incubated upto 85 °C as a speculated reason for protein high thermostability. Interestingly, both nEG and rEG were found tolerant up to 10% of the presence of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate [C2mim][OAc]. Values of the catalytic constants Km and Vmax for rEG were recorded as 2.5 mg/ml and 303.4 µmol/mg/min, respectively. Thermostability, pH stability, and resistance to the presence of ionic liquid signify the potential applicability of present enzyme in cellulose hydrolysis and enzymatic deinking of recycled paper pulp.

Abstract
Multicopper oxidases (MCOs) are a pervasive family of enzymes that oxidize a wide range of phenolic and nonphenolic aromatic substrates, concomitantly with the reduction of dioxygen to water. MCOs are usually divided into two functional classes: metalloxidases and laccases. Given their broad substrate specificity and eco-friendliness (molecular oxygen from air as is used as the final electron acceptor and they only release water as byproduct), laccases are regarded as promising biological green tools for an array of applications. Among these laccases, those of bacterial origin have attracted research attention because of their notable advantages, including broad substrate spectrum, wide pH range, high thermostability, and tolerance to alkaline environments. This review aims to summarize the significant research efforts on the properties, mechanisms and structures, laccase-mediator systems, genetic engineering, immobilization, and biotechnological applications of the bacteria-source laccases and laccase-like enzymes, which principally include Bacillus laccases, actinomycetic laccases and some other species of bacterial laccases. In addition, these enzymes may offer tremendous potential for environmental and industrial applications.
