Abstract
Nitrilases represent a distinct class of enzymes that play a pivotal role in catalyzing the hydrolysis of nitrile compounds, leading to the formation of corresponding carboxylic acids. These enzymatic entities have garnered significant attention across a spectrum of industries, encompassing pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fine chemicals. Moreover, their significance has been accentuated by mounting environmental pressures, propelling them into the forefront of biodegradation and bioremediation endeavors. Nevertheless, the natural nitrilases exhibit intrinsic limitations such as low thermal stability, narrow substrate selectivity, and inadaptability to varying environmental conditions. In the past decade, substantial efforts have been made in elucidating the structural underpinnings and catalytic mechanisms of nitrilase, providing basis for engineering of nitrilases. Significant breakthroughs have been made in the regulation of nitrilases with ideal catalytic properties and application of the enzymes for industrial productions. This review endeavors to provide a comprehensive discourse and summary of recent research advancements related to nitrilases, with a particular emphasis on the elucidation of the structural attributes, catalytic mechanisms, catalytic characteristics, and strategies for improving catalytic performance of nitrilases. Moreover, the exploration extends to the domain of process engineering and the multifarious applications of nitrilases. Furthermore, the future development trend of nitrilases is prospected, providing important guidance for research and application in the related fields.

Abstract
Complex polymers represent a challenge for remediating environmental pollution and an opportunity for microbial-catalysed conversion to generate valorized chemicals. Members of the genus Streptomyces are of interest because of their potential use in biotechnological applications. Their versatility makes them excellent sources of biocatalysts for environmentally responsible bioconversion, as they have a broad substrate range and are active over a wide range of pH and temperature. Most Streptomyces studies have focused on the isolation of strains, recombinant work and enzyme characterization for evaluating their potential for biotechnological application. This review discusses reports of Streptomyces-based technologies for use in the textile and pulp-milling industry and describes the challenges and recent advances aimed at achieving better biodegradation methods featuring these microbial catalysts. The principal points to be discussed are (1) Streptomyces' enzymes for use in dye decolorization and lignocellulosic biodegradation, (2) biotechnological processes for textile and pulp and paper waste treatment and (3) challenges and advances for textile and pulp and paper effluent treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microbial nitrilases play a vital role in the biodegradation of nitrilecontaining pollutants, effluent treatments in chemical and textile industries, and the biosynthesis of Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) from tryptophan in plants. However, the lack of structural information limits the correlation between its activity and substrate specificity. METHODS The present study involves the genome mining of bacteria for the distribution and diversity of nitrilases, their phylogenetic analysis and structural characterization for motifs/ domains, followed by interaction with substrates. RESULTS Here, we mined the bacterial genomes for nitrilases and correlated their functions to hypothetical, uncharacterized, or putative ones. The comparative genomics revealed four AcNit, As7Nit, Cn5Nit and Cn9Nit predicted nitrilases encoding genes as uncharacterized subgroups of the nitrilase superfamily. The annotation of these nitrilases encoding genes revealed relatedness with nitrilase hydratases and cyanoalanine hydratases. At the proteomics level, the motif analysis of these protein sequences predicted a single motif of 20-28 aa, with glutamate (E), lysine (K) and cysteine (C) residues as a part of catalytic triad along with several other residues at the active site. The structural analysis of the nitrilases revealed geometrical and close conformation in the form of α-helices and β-sheets arranged in a sandwich structure. The catalytic residues constituted the substrate binding pocket and exhibited the broad nitrile substrate spectra for aromatic and aliphatic nitriles-containing compounds. The aromatic amino acid residues Y159 in the active site were predicted to be responsible for substrate specificity. The substitution of non-aromatic alanine residue in place of Y159 completely disrupted the catalytic activity for indole-3-acetonitrile (IAN). CONCLUSION The present study reports genome mining and simulation of structure-function relationship for uncharacterized bacterial nitrilases and their role in the biodegradation of pollutants and xenobiotics, which could be of applications in different industrial sectors.

Immobilization of Escherichia coli cells harboring a nitrilase with improved catalytic properties though polyethylenemine-induced silicification on zeolite. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 193:1362-1370. [PMID: 34740683 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.10.196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2021] [Revised: 07/18/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
In the chemical-biological synthesis route of gabapentin, immobilized Escherichia coli cells harboring nitrilase are used to catalyze the biotransformation of intermediate 1-cyanocyclohexaneacetonitile to 1-cyanocyclohexaneacetic acid. Herein, we present a novel cell immobilization method, which is based on cell adsorption using 75 g/L Escherichia coli cells and 6 g/L zeolite, cell crosslinking using 3 g/L polyethylenemine and biomimetic silicification using 18 g/L hydrolyzed tetramethylorthosilicate. The constructed "hybrid biomimetic silica particles (HBSPs)" with core-shell structure showed a specific activity of 147.2 ± 2.3 U/g, 82.6 ± 2.8% recovery of nitrilase activity and a half-life of 19.1 ± 1.9 h at 55 °C. 1-Cyanocyclohexaneacetonitrile (1.0 M) could be completely hydrolyzed by 50 g/L of HBSPs at pH 7.5, 35 °C in 4 h, providing 92.1 ± 3.2% yield of 1-cyanocyclohexaneacetic acid. In batch reactions, the HBSPs could be reused for 13 cycles and maintained 79.9 ± 4.1% residual activity after the 10th batch, providing an average product yield of 92.6% in the first 10 batches with a productivity of 619.3 g/L/day. In addition, multi-layer structures consisting of silica coating and polyethylenemine/glutaraldehyde crosslinking were constructed to enhance the mechanical strength of immobilized cells, and the effects of coating layers on the catalytic properties of immobilized cells was discussed.

Abstract
AIMS The efficiency of acrylamide production was examined with immobilized cells of Rhodococcus rhodochrous (RS-6) containing NHase. METHODS AND RESULTS Different entrapment matrices such as agar, alginate and polyacrylamide were used. Various immobilization parameters like agar concentration, cell concentration and reaction conditions affecting the bioconversion process using suitable matrices were determined. The cells immobilized with agar matrix were found to be most effective for acrylonitrile conversion. The bioconversion was more efficient in beads prepared with 2% agar and 5% (v/v) cell concentration. The entire conversion of acrylonitrile to acrylamide with agar entrapped cells was achieved in 120 min at 15°C. The agar entrapped R. rhodochrous (RS-6) cells exhibited 8% (w/v) tolerance to acrylonitrile and 35% tolerance to acrylamide. The immobilized cells also retained 50% of its conversion ability up to seven cycles. The laboratory-scale (1 L) production resulted in 466 g L-1 accumulation of acrylamide in 16 h. CONCLUSIONS The cells immobilized in agar showed better stability and biocatalytic properties and increased reusability potential. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The agar-immobilized Rhodococcus rhodochrous (RS-6) cells showed enhanced tolerance for both the substrate and product and is economical for the large-scale production of acrylamide.

Abstract
Cell immobilization is a process augmentation technique aimed at improving microbial survival and activity under stressful conditions. It offers the opportunity to reuse the immobilized cells for several fermentation cycles. The present study investigated the use of recycled cells entrapped in calcium-alginate beads and cells adsorbed on corncobs (CC) and oakwood chips (OWC) in subsequent fermentation cycles for balsamic-styled vinegar (BSV) production. Sugars, pH, alcohol and total acidity were monitored during fermentation. Microbial activity and product formation declined when immobilized cells were reused for the second cycle for CC and OWC fermentations. Recycled cells entrapped in Ca-alginate beads completed the second cycle of fermentations, albeit at reduced acetification rates compared to the first cycle. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging results further showed a substantial the structural integrity loss for Ca-alginate beads after the first cycle, and with minor changes in the structural integrity of CC. The OWC displayed a similar morphological structure before and after the first cycle. The sensory results showed that BSV produced using immobilized cells with Ca-alginate beads and CC was palatable, while those produced using OWC had negative attributes. Ca-alginate beads offered better protection for the fermentation consortium for culture reusability in BSV fermentations.

Abstract
To improve nicotinic acid (NA) yield and meet industrial application requirements of sodium alginate-polyvinyl alcohol (SA-PVA) immobilized cells of Pseudomonas putida mut-D3 harboring nitrilase, inorganic materials were added to the SA-PVA immobilized cells to improve mechanical strength and mass transfer performance. The concentrations of inorganic materials were optimized to be 2.0% silica and 0.6% CaCO3. The optimal pH and temperature for SA-PVA immobilized cells and composite immobilized cells were both 8.0 and 45 °C, respectively. The half-lives of composite immobilized cells were 271.48, 150.92, 92.92 and 33.12 h, which were 1.40-, 1.35-, 1.22- and 1.63-fold compared to SA-PVA immobilized cells, respectively. The storage stability of the composite immobilized cells was slightly increased. The composite immobilized cells could convert 14 batches of 3-cyanopyridine with feeding concentration of 250 mM and accumulate 418 g ·L-1 nicotinic acid, while the SA-PVA immobilized cells accumulated 346 g L-1 nicotinic acid.

Abstract
Production of fuels, therapeutic drugs, chemicals, and biomaterials using sustainable biological processes have received renewed attention due to increasing environmental concerns. Despite having high industrial output, most of the current chemical processes are associated with environmentally undesirable by-products which escalate the cost of downstream processing. Compared to chemical processes, whole cell biocatalysts offer several advantages including high selectivity, catalytic efficiency, milder operational conditions and low impact on the environment, making this approach the current choice for synthesis and manufacturing of different industrial products. In this review, we present the application of whole cell actinobacteria for the synthesis of biologically active compounds, biofuel production and conversion of harmful compounds to less toxic by-products. Actinobacteria alone are responsible for the production of nearly half of the documented biologically active metabolites and many enzymes; with the involvement of various species of whole cell actinobacteria such as Rhodococcus, Streptomyces, Nocardia and Corynebacterium for the production of useful industrial commodities.

Abstract
Acrylonitrile (C3H3N) widely used in chemical raw materials has biological toxicity with -CN bond, so it is the key to removal of cyanide from acrylonitrile wastewater. In our previous research and investigation, a strain was identified as Arthrobacter nitroguajacolicus named ZJUTB06-99 and was proved to be capable of degrading acrylonitrile. In this paper, the strain ZJUTB06-99 was domesticated with acrylonitrile-containing medium and its decyanidation and denitrification in simulated acrylonitrile wastewater were studied. The intermediate product of acrylonitrile in degradation process was identified through gas chromatography-mass spectrometer, as well as the biodegradation pathway of acrylonitrile in wastewater was deduced tentatively. The kinetics equation of biodegradation of acrylonitrile was lnC = - 0.1784t + 5.3349, with the degradation half-life of acrylonitrile in wastewater by 3.885 h. The results of this study showed that the optimum levels of temperature, pH and bacteria concentration to attain the maximum biodegradation were obtained as 30 °C, 6 and 100 g/L, respectively. The disadvantages of the biodegradation with this strain and its possible enhanced method to degrade acrylonitrile in wastewater were also discussed.

Abstract
Nitriles are organic compounds bearing a − C ≡ N group; they are frequently known to occur naturally in both fauna and flora and are also synthesized chemically. They have wide applicability in the fields of medicine, industry, and environmental monitoring. However, the majority of nitrile compounds are considered to be lethal, mutagenic, and carcinogenic in nature and are known to cause potential health problems such as nausea, bronchial irritation, respiratory distress, convulsions, coma, and skeletal deformities in humans. Nitrile-converting enzymes, which are extracted from microorganisms, are commonly termed nitrilases and have drawn the attention of researchers all over the world to combat the toxicity of nitrile compounds. The present review focuses on the utility of nitrile-converting enzymes, sources, classification, structure, properties, and applications, as well as the future perspective on nitrilases.

Abstract
The intracellular cobalt-type nitrile hydratase was purified from the bacterium Rhodococcuserythropolis. The pure enzyme consisted of two subunits of 29 and 30 kDa. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was estimated to be 65 kDa. At 25 °C the enzyme had a half-life of 25 h. The Michaelis–Menten constants Km and vmax for the enzyme were 0.624 mM and 5.12 μmol/min/mg, respectively, using 3-cyanopyridine as the substrate. The enzyme-containing freely-suspended bacterial cells and the cells immobilized within alginate beads were evaluated for converting the various nitriles to amides. In a packed bed reactor, alginate beads (2 % alginate; 3 mm bead diameter) containing 200 mg/mL of cells, achieved a conversion of >90 % for benzonitrile and 4-cyanopyridine in 38 h (25 °C, pH 7.0) at a feed substrate concentration of 100 mM. The beads could be reused for up to six reaction cycles.

Abstract
Lindane (γ-HCH) is an organochlorine insecticide that has been widely used in developing countries. It is known to persist in the environment and can cause serious health problems. One of the strategies adopted to remove lindane from the environment is bioremediation using microorganisms. Immobilized cells present advantages over free suspended cells, like their high degradation efficiency and protection against toxins. The aims of this work were: (1) To evaluate the ability of Streptomyces strains immobilized in four different matrices to remove lindane, (2) To select the support with optimum lindane removal by pure cultures, (3) To assay the selected support with consortia and (4) To evaluate the reusability of the immobilized cells. Four Streptomyces sp. strains had previously shown their ability to grow in the presence of lindane. Lindane removal by microorganisms immobilized was significantly higher than in free cells. Specifically immobilized cells in cloth sachets showed an improvement of around 25% in lindane removal compared to the abiotic control. Three strains showed significantly higher microbial growth when they were entrapped in silicone tubes. Strains immobilized in PVA-alginate demonstrated lowest growth. Mixed cultures immobilized inside cloth sachets showed no significant enhancement compared to pure cultures, reaching a maximum removal of 81% after 96 h for consortium I, consisting of the four immobilized strains together. Nevertheless, the cells could be reused for two additional cycles of 96 h each, obtaining a maximum removal efficiency of 71.5% when each of the four strains was immobilized in a separate bag (consortium III).

Abstract
Over the past decades, nitrilases have drawn considerable attention because of their application in nitrile degradation as prominent biocatalysts. Nitrilases are derived from bacteria, filamentous fungi, yeasts, and plants. In-depth investigations on their natural sources function mechanisms, enzyme structure, screening pathways, and biocatalytic properties have been conducted. Moreover, the immobilization, purification, gene cloning and modifications of nitrilase have been dwelt upon. Some nitrilases are used commercially as biofactories for carboxylic acids production, waste treatment, and surface modification. This critical review summarizes the current status of nitrilase research, and discusses a number of challenges and significant attempts in its further development. Nitrilase is a significant and promising biocatalyst for catalytic applications.

Abstract
The nitrilase produced from a new isolate is evaluated for its activity in presence of a number of different ions and compounds at optimal conditions. It was found that the activity of nitrilase increased up to 10-20% in presence of most of the divalent ions at a concentration of 5 mM relative to the control. Silver, mercury, tin, DTT, ascorbic acid and thiourea, respectively, were observed as potential inhibitors of the enzyme catalysis. The investigation on storage stability of whole cells in presence of a number of stabilizers showed that the enzyme is stable (relative activity 50%) for more than 120 days at various temperatures.
