Abstract
Microbial pectinolytic enzymes are important in various industries, particularly food processing. This study focuses on uncovering insights into a novel pectin lyase, BvPelB, from Bacillus velezensis 16B, with the aim of enhancing fruit juice processing. The study examines the structural and functional characteristics of pectinolytic enzyme, underscoring the critical nature of substrate specificity and enzymatic reaction mechanisms. BvPelB was successfully expressed and purified, exhibiting robust activity under alkaline conditions and thermal stability. Structural analysis revealed similarities with other pectin lyases, despite limited sequence identity. Biochemical characterization showed BvPelB's preference for highly methylated pectins and its endo-acting mode of cleavage. Treatment with BvPelB significantly increased juice yield and clarity without generating excessive methanol, making it a promising candidate for fruit juice processing. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the enzymatic properties of BvPelB and its potential industrial applications in improving fruit juice processing efficiency and quality.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 279:135217. [PMID: 39216572 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135217] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2024] [Revised: 08/20/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Pectinases are useful biocatalysts for pectic biomass processing and are extensively used in the food/feed, textile and papermaking industries. Two pectinase genes, a pectate lyase (SbPL1CE8) and a polygalacturonase (SbGH28GH105) were isolated from Segatella bryantii and functionally characterized. Recombinant rSbPL1CE8 was most active against polygalacturonic acid (PGA) and pectin with a 60 % degree of esterification, with kcat/Km values of 721.18 ± 64.77 and 327.02 ± 22.44 mL/s/mg, respectively. Truncated rSbPL1 acted as a mesophilic alkaline pectate lyase, which was highly resistant to inactivation by methanol and ethanol. The rSbPL1CE8 exclusively digested PGA and pectin into unsaturated digalacturonate (uG2), which was further converted into galacturonic acid by rSbGH28GH105. The rSbPL1CE8 was highly effective for saccharification of waste materials from Zea mays, Oryza sativa and Arachis hypogaea processing, and for ramie fiber degumming. This novel pectate lyase has great potential for application in industrial pectic biomass processing.

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens LM-1 Affects Multiple Cell Biological Processes in Magnaporthe oryzae to Suppress Rice Blast. Microorganisms 2024; 12:1246.

Abstract
Magnaporthe oryzae, one of the most destructive rice pathogens, causes significant losses during the rice harvest every year. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens has been explored in many crops as a potential biocontrol agent. However, the mechanisms of B. amyloliquefaciens controled rice blast are not fully understood. Here, a biocontrol strain LM-1, isolated from a contaminated medium, was identified as B. amyloliquefaciens using morphological observation, physiological and biochemical tests, and 16S rDNA sequencing. LM-1 inhibited the growth and pathogenicity of M. oryzae and Bipolaris oryzae (Breda de Haan) Shoem. The mycelia of M. oryzae co-cultured with LM-1 were enlarged and broken by fluorescence microscopy using calcofluor white. LM-1 inhibited the mycelia of M. oryzae from producing conidia. Genes itu, srf, and fenB were detected in LM-1. Furthermore, the supernatant of LM-1 interfered with the appressorium formation of M. oryzae, blocked conidial cell death, and reduced autophagy degradation but did not affect the normal germination of rice seeds and seeding growth. Additionally, we observed hypersensitivity reactions, reactive oxygen species, and iron accumulation reduction in rice cells inoculated with supernatant. Our study reveals that LM-1 has a control effect on rice blast and affects cell wall integrity, sporulation, appressorium formation, cell death, and autophagy.

B58-2: Gene cloning, heterologous expression and use in ramie degumming. Enzyme Microb Technol 2024; 175:110395. [PMID: 38237242 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2024.110395] [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: 11/09/2023] [Revised: 12/31/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
Pectinase plays a crucial role in ramie degumming. A gene encoding a putative pectate lyase from Bacillus sp. strain B58-2 was cloned and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. The amplified gene BvelPL1 encoded a mature protein of 400 amino acids. BvelPL1 shared the highest amino acid sequence identity (78.75%) with the enzymatically characterized pectate lyase Pel from Bacillus subtilis strain RCK (GenBank: AFH66771.1). The purified recombinant enzyme rBvelPL1-Ec exhibited a maximum specific activity of 2433.26 U/mg at pH 8.5 and 50 °C towards polygalacturonic acid. This specific activity was higher than that of most reported pectate lyases. Remarkably, the enzymatic activity of rBvelPL1-Ec increased by 23.28 times in the presence of 0.4 mM calcium ion. The effect of calcium ion on promoting the enzymatic activity of rBvelPL1-Ec was greater than that for all reported pectate lyases. After degumming with rBvelPL1-Ec, a weight loss of 21.27 ± 1.17% of circled ramie fibers was obtained, and the surfaces of the ramie fibers became smoother. Moreover, a weight loss of 30.47 ± 0.46% was obtained through enzymatic treated and subsequent NaOH treated circled ramie fibers. The excellent performance in degumming suggests that rBvelPL1-Ec may serve as a promising biocatalyst in the textile industry.

Abstract
Pectins are complex polysaccharides that are widely found in plant cells and have a variety of bioactivities. However, the high molecular weights (Mw) and complex structures of natural pectins mean that they are difficult for organisms to absorb and utilize, limiting their beneficial effects. The modification of pectins is considered to be an effective method for improving the structural characteristics and promoting the bioactivities of pectins, and even adding new bioactivities to natural pectins. This article reviews the modification methods, including chemical, physical, and enzymatic methods, for natural pectins from the perspective of their basic information, influencing factors, and product identification. Furthermore, the changes caused by modifications to the bioactivities of pectins are elucidated, including their anti-coagulant, anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic, and anti-bacterial activities and the ability to regulate the intestinal environment. Finally, suggestions and perspectives regarding the development of pectin modification are provided.

Abstract
Alkaline pectate lyase has developmental prospects in the textile, pulp, paper, and food industries. In this study, we selected BacPelA, the pectin lyase with the highest expression activity from Bacillus clausii, modified and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Through fragment replacement, the catalytic activity of the enzyme was significantly improved. The optimum pH and temperature of the modified pectin lyase (PGLA-rep4) were 11.0 and 70 °C, respectively. It also exhibited a superior ability to cleave methylated pectin. The enzyme activity of PGLA-rep4, measured at 235 nm with 0.2% apple pectin as the substrate, was 554.0 U/mL, and the specific enzyme activity after purification using a nickel column was 822.9 U/mg. After approximately 20 ns of molecular dynamics simulation, the structure of the pectin lyase PGLA-rep4 tended to be stable. The root mean square fluctuation (RMSF) values at the key catalytically active site, LYS168, were higher than those of the wildtype PGLA. In addition, PGLA-rep4 was relatively stable in the presence of metal ions. PGLA-rep4 has good enzymatic properties and activities and maintains a high pH and temperature. This study provides a successful strategy for enhancing the catalytic activity of PGLA-rep4, making it the ultimate candidate for degumming and various uses in the pulp, paper, and textile industries.

Biochemical characterization and immobilization of a novel pectate lyase ErPL2 for efficient preparation of pectin oligosaccharides. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 204:532-539.

Abstract
Pectate lyase (ErPL2) from Echinicola rosea JL3085 showed maximal activity at 45 °C and pH 9.0 with 0.6 mM CaCl2. The Km and Vmax values of ErPL2 for polygalacturonic sodium were 2.098 mmol/L and 0.955 mmol/s, respectively. ErPL2 endolytically degraded pectic substances into oligosaccharides with degree of polymerization (DP) 1-5. To improve the thermostability and pH operation range, recombinant ErPL2 was immobilized onto mesoporous titanium oxide particles (MTOPs). MTOPs have abundant hydroxyl groups on the surface, which is a non-toxicity and good biocompatibility carrier. The residual enzyme activity of immobilized ErPL2 at 40 °C increased remarkably from 11% to 91% compared with free enzyme. The operable pH range was extended from 8-9 to 9-11. Surprisingly, the catalytic efficiency of immobilized ErPL2 was about 19 times higher than free enzyme. To our knowledge this is the first attempt of pectate lyase immobilized on MTOPs and it provides a new option for improving the catalytic performance.

Abstract
The cold-active pectate lyases have drawn increasing attention in food and biotechnological applications due to their ability to retain high catalytic efficiency under lower temperatures, which could be helpful for energy saving, cost reduction and flavor preservation. Herein, a new cold-tolerant pectate lyase (ErPelPL1) gene from Echinicola rosea was cloned and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. Interestingly, ErPelPL1 retained high catalytic activity even at a low temperature (4 °C). ErPelPL1 exhibited optimal activity at 35 ℃, pH 8.0 with 1 mM of Ca2+. It showed high specific activity towards polygalacturonic acid (34.7 U/mg) and sodium polygalacturonate (59.3 U/mg). The combined thin-layer chromatography (TLC), fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) results indicated that ErPelPL1 endolytically degraded pectic substances into the oligosaccharides with degrees of depolymerization (Dps) of 1-6. In conclusion, this study mainly conducted biochemical characterization and product analysis of a cold-tolerant pectate lyase. Therefore, it provides a promising enzyme candidate for food and biotechnological applications.

Abstract
Pectate lyases and pectin lyases have essential roles in various biotechnological applications, such as textile industry, paper making, pectic wastewater pretreatment, juice clarification and oil extraction. They can effectively cleave the α-1,4-glycosidic bond of pectin molecules back bone by β-elimination reaction to produce pectin oligosaccharides. In this way, it will not generate highly toxic methanol and has the advantages of good enzymatic selectivity, less by-products, mild reaction conditions and high efficiency. However, numerous researches have been done for several decades; there are still no comprehensive reviews to summarize the recent advances of pectate lyases and pectin lyases. This review tries to fill this gap by providing all relevant information, including the substrate, origin, biochemical properties, sequence analysis, mode of action, the three-dimensional structure and catalytic mechanism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ramie degumming is often carried out at high temperatures; therefore, thermostable alkaline pectate lyase (PL) is beneficial for ramie degumming for industrial applications. Thermostable PLs are usually obtained by exploring new enzymes or reconstructing existing enzyme by rational design. Here, we improved the thermostability of an alkaline pectate lyase (PelN) from Paenibacillus sp. 0602 with rational design and structure-based engineering. RESULTS From 26 mutants, two mutants of G241A and G241V showed a higher thermostability compared with the wild-type PL. The mutant K93I showed increasing specific activity at 45 °C. Subsequently, we obtained combinational mutations (K93I/G241A) and found that their thermostability and specific activity improved simultaneously. The K93I/G241A mutant showed a half-life time of 15.9 min longer at 60 °C and a melting temperature of 1.6 °C higher than those of the wild PL. The optimum temperature decreased remarkably from 67.5 °C to 60 °C, accompanied by a 57% decrease in Km compared with the Km value of the wild-type strain. Finally, we found that the intramolecular interaction in PelN was the source in the improvements of molecular properties by comparing the model structures. Rational design of PelN was performed by stabilizing the α-helices with high conservation and increasing the stability of the overall structure of the protein. Two engineering strategies were applied by decreasing the mutation energy calculated by Discovery Studio and predicting the free energy in the process of protein folding by the PoPMuSiC algorithm. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrated that the K93I/G241A mutant was more suitable for industrial production than the wild-type enzyme. Furthermore, the two forementioned strategies could be extended to reveal engineering of other kinds of industrial enzymes.

Abstract
Abstract: Genomic and proteomic advances in extremophile microorganism studies are increasingly demonstrating their ability to produce a variety of enzymes capable of converting biomass into bioenergy. Such microorganisms are found in environments with nutritional restrictions, anaerobic environments, high salinity, varying pH conditions and extreme natural environments such as hydrothermal vents, soda lakes, and Antarctic sediments. As extremophile microorganisms and their enzymes are found in widely disparate locations, they generate new possibilities and opportunities to explore biotechnological prospecting, including biofuels (biogas, hydrogen and ethanol) with an aim toward using multi-omics tools that shed light on biotechnological breakthroughs.

Exploration of Two Pectate Lyases from Caldicellulosiruptor bescii Reveals that the CBM66 Module Has a Crucial Role in Pectic Biomass Degradation. Appl Environ Microbiol 2020; 86:AEM.00787-20.

Abstract
Pectin deconstruction is the initial step in breaking the recalcitrance of plant biomass by using selected microorganisms that encode pectinolytic enzymes. Pectate lyases that cleave the α-1,4-galacturonosidic linkage of pectin are widely used in industries such as papermaking and fruit softening. However, there are few reports on pectate lyases with good thermostability. Here, two pectate lyases (CbPL3 and CbPL9) from a hyperthermophilic bacterium, Caldicellulosiruptor bescii, belonging to family 3 and family 9 polysaccharide lyases, respectively, were investigated. The biochemical properties of the two CbPLs were shown to be similar under optimized conditions of 80°C to 85°C and pH 8 to 9. However, the degradation products from pectin and polygalacturonic acids (pGAs) were different. A family 66 carbohydrate-binding module (CbCBM66) located in the N terminus of the two CbPLs shares 100% amino acid identity. A CbCBM66-truncated mutant of CbPL9 showed lower activities than the wild type, whereas CbPL3 with a CbCBM66 knockout portion was reported to have enhanced activities, thereby revealing the different effect of CbCBM66. Prediction by the I-TASSER server revealed that CbCBM66 is structurally close to BsCBM66 from Bacillus subtilis; however, the COFACTOR and COACH programs indicated that the substrate-binding sites between CbCBM66 and BsCBM66 are different. Furthermore, a substrate-binding assay indicated that the catalytic domains in the two CbPLs had strong affinities for pectate-related substrates, but CbCBM66 showed a weak interaction with a number of lignocellulosic carbohydrates. Finally, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis and a total reducing sugar assay showed that the two enzymes could improve the saccharification of switchgrass. The two CbPLs are impressive sources for the degradation of plant biomass.IMPORTANCE Thermophilic proteins could be implemented in diverse industrial applications. We sought to characterize two pectate lyases, CbPL3 and CbPL9, from a thermophilic bacterium, Caldicellulosiruptor bescii The two enzymes share a high optimum temperature, a low optimum pH, and good thermostability at the evaluated temperature. A family 66 carbohydrate-binding module (CbCBM66) was identified in the two CbPLs, sharing 100% amino acid identity. The deletion of CbCBM66 dramatically decreased the activity of CbPL9 but increased the activity and thermostability of CbPL3, suggesting different roles of CbCBM66 in the two enzymes. Moreover, the degradation products of the two CbPLs were different. These results revealed that these enzymes could represent potential pectate lyases for applications in the paper and textile industries.

Abstract
In this study, a novel pectate lyase (ApPel1) was identified and characterized from Aspergillus parasiticus. The ApPel1 hydrolysed oligogalacturonides (OGs) effectively and produced 4,5-unsaturated OGs from low-methoxyl (LM) pectin, with DP 2 to DP 5 as the major products. Furthermore, the multiple sequence alignments, structure model and phylogenetic analyses of the ApPel1 indicated that its catalytic active sites were highly conserved with other pectin lyases (PLs) and the Ca2+ binding amino acid residues are different compared with pectate lyases (Pels). N187D, N191D and N187D/N191D mutants were constructed to test for both Ca2+ binding properties and the effects on catalytic ability. The three mutations sharply decreased the activity of ApPel1 and Ca2+ tolerance, indicating that the Ca2+ binding amino acid residues are different from the other Pels. Based on the sequence and structure comparison between PLs and Pels, and mutation analysis, the ApPel1 may be direct evolution from PLs. Thus, this enzyme has potential for use in producing unsaturated OGs for biological activity study, and contributes to an improved understanding of the evolutionary relationships between PLs and Pels.
