Abstract
In cyanobacteria, the interplay of ATP and lactate dynamics underpins cellular energetics; their pronounced shifts in response to zero-valent iron (nZVI) nanoparticles and ampicillin highlight the nuanced metabolic adaptations to environmental challenges. In this study, we investigated the impact of nZVIs and ampicillin on Fremyella diplosiphon cellular energetics as determined by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, intracellular and extracellular lactate levels, and their impact on cell morphology as visualized by transmission electron microscopy. While a significant increase in ATP concentration was observed in 0.8 mg/L ampicillin-treated cells compared to the untreated control, a significant decline was noted in cells treated with 3.2 mg/L nZVIs. ATP levels in the combination regimen of 0.8 mg/L ampicillin and 3.2 mg/L nZVIs were significantly elevated (p < 0.05) compared to the 3.2 mg/L nZVI treatment. Intracellular and extracellular lactate levels were significantly higher in 0.8 mg/L ampicillin, 3.2 mg/L nZVIs, and the combination regimen compared to the untreated control; however, extracellular lactate levels were the highest in cells treated with 3.2 mg/L nZVIs. Visualization of morphological changes indicated increased thylakoid membrane stacks and inter-thylakoidal distances in 3.2 mg/L nZVI-treated cells. Our findings demonstrate a complex interplay of nanoparticle and antibiotic-induced responses, highlighting the differential impact of these stressors on F. diplosiphon metabolism and cellular integrity.

Abstract
Because of the hydrophobic nature of the membrane lipid bilayer, the majority of the hydrophilic solutes require special transportation mechanisms for passing through the cell membrane. Integral membrane transport proteins (MTPs), which belong to the Major Intrinsic Protein Family, facilitate the transport of these solutes across cell membranes. MTPs including aquaporins and carrier proteins are transmembrane proteins spanning across the cell membrane. The easy handling of microorganisms enabled the discovery of a remarkable number of transport proteins specific to different substances. It has been realized that these transporters have very important roles in the survival of microorganisms, their pathogenesis, and antimicrobial resistance. Astonishing features related to the solute specificity of these proteins have led to the acceleration of the research on the discovery of their properties and the development of innovative products in which these unique properties are used or imitated. Studies on microbial MTPs range from the discovery and characterization of a novel transporter protein to the mining and screening of them in a large transporter library for particular functions, from simulations and modeling of specific transporters to the preparation of biomimetic synthetic materials for different purposes such as biosensors or filtration membranes. This review presents recent discoveries on microbial membrane transport proteins and focuses especially on formate nitrite transport proteins and aquaporins, and advances in their biotechnological applications.

Abstract
The imminent need for transition to a circular biorefinery using microbial fuel cells (MFC), based on the valorization of renewable resources, will ameliorate the carbon footprint induced by industrialization. MFC catalyzed by bioelectrochemical process drew significant attention initially for its exceptional potential for integrated production of biochemicals and bioenergy. Nonetheless, the associated costly bioproduct production and slow microbial kinetics have constrained its commercialization. This review encompasses the potential and development of macroalgal biomass as a substrate in the MFC system for L-lactic acid (L-LA) and bioelectricity generation. Besides, an insight into the state-of-the-art technological advancement in the MFC system is also deliberated in detail. Investigations in recent years have shown that MFC developed with different anolyte enhances power density from several µW/m2 up to 8160 mW/m2. Further, this review provides a plausible picture of macroalgal-based L-LA and bioelectricity circular biorefinery in the MFC system for future research directions.

Abstract
Escherichia coli is the best-known model for the biotechnological production of many biotechnological products, including housekeeping and heterologous primary and secondary metabolites and recombinant proteins, and is an efficient biofactory model to produce biofuels to nanomaterials. Glucose is the primary substrate used as the carbon source for laboratory and industrial cultivation of E. coli for production purposes. Efficient growth and associated production and yield of desired products depend on the efficient sugar transport capabilities, sugar catabolism through the central carbon catabolism, and the efficient carbon flux through specific biosynthetic pathways. The genome of E. coli MG1655 is 4,641,642 bp, corresponding to 4702 genes encoding 4328 proteins. The EcoCyc database describes 532 transport reactions, 480 transporters, and 97 proteins involved in sugar transport. Nevertheless, due to the high number of sugar transporters, E. coli uses preferentially few systems to grow in glucose as the sole carbon source. E. coli nonspecifically transports glucose from the extracellular medium into the periplasmic space through the outer membrane porins. Once in periplasmic space, glucose is transported into the cytoplasm by several systems, including the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS), the ATP-dependent cassette (ABC) transporters, and the major facilitator (MFS) superfamily proton symporters. In this contribution, we review the structures and mechanisms of the E. coli central glucose transport systems, including the regulatory circuits recruiting the specific use of these transport systems under specific growing conditions. Finally, we describe several successful examples of transport engineering, including introducing heterologous and non-sugar transport systems for producing several valuable metabolites.

Abstract
Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium graminearum, whose occurrence and prevalence causes 10-70% wheat production loss, is one of the most destructive diseases influencing the production of wheat globally. To identify the potential natural products (NPs) against F. graminearum, we screened 59 Xenorhabdus strains and discovered that the cell-free supernatant (CFS) of X. budapestensis 14 (XBD14) displays the highest bioactivity. Multiple genetic methods coupled with HRMS/MS analysis determined the major antifungal NP to be Fcl-29, a fabclavine derivative. Fcl-29 was found to effectively control FHB of wheat in the field test and demonstrated broad-spectrum antifungal activity against important pathogenic fungi. The production of Fcl-29 was dramatically improved by 33.82-fold with the combinatorial strategy of genetic engineering (1.66-fold) and fermentation engineering (20.39-fold). The exploration of a new biofungicide in global plant protection is now possible.

Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0366022.

Abstract
The evolution of the bacterial phosphotransferase system (PTS) linked to glycolysis is dependent on the availability of naturally occurring sugars. Although bacteria exhibit sugar specificities based on carbon catabolite repression, the acquisition and evolvability of the cellular sugar preference under conditions that are suboptimal for growth (e.g., environments rich in a rare sugar) are poorly understood. Here, we generated Escherichia coli mutants via a retro-aldol reaction to obtain progeny that can utilize the rare sugar d-tagatose. We detected a minimal set of adaptive mutations in the d-fructose-specific PTS to render E. coli capable of d-tagatose utilization. These E. coli mutant strains lost the tight regulation of both the d-fructose and N-acetyl-galactosamine PTS following deletions in the binding site of the catabolite repressor/activator protein (Cra) upstream from the fruBKA operon and in the agaR gene, encoding the N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) repressor, respectively. Acquired d-tagatose catabolic pathways then underwent fine-tuned adaptation via an additional mutation in 1-phosphofructose kinase to adjust metabolic fluxes. We determined the evolutionary trajectory at the molecular level, providing insights into the mechanism by which enteric bacteria evolved a substrate preference for the rare sugar d-tagatose. Furthermore, the engineered E. coli mutant strain could serve as an in vivo high-throughput screening platform for engineering non-phosphosugar isomerases to produce rare sugars. IMPORTANCE Microorganisms generate energy through glycolysis, which might have preceded a rapid burst of evolution, including the evolution of cellular respiration in the primordial biosphere. However, little is known about the evolvability of cellular sugar preferences. Here, we generated Escherichia coli mutants via a retro-aldol reaction to obtain progeny that can utilize the rare sugar d-tagatose. Consequently, we identified mutational hot spots and determined the evolutionary trajectory at the molecular level. This provided insights into the mechanism by which enteric bacteria evolved substrate preferences for various sugars, accounting for the widespread occurrence of these taxa. Furthermore, the adaptive laboratory evolution-induced cellular chassis could serve as an in vivo high-throughput screening platform for engineering tailor-made non-phosphorylated sugar isomerases to produce low-calorigenic rare sugars showing antidiabetic, antihyperglycemic, and antitumor activities.

Molecules 2021; 26:5629.

Abstract
Over the years, my colleagues and I have come to realise that the likelihood of pharmaceutical drugs being able to diffuse through whatever unhindered phospholipid bilayer may exist in intact biological membranes in vivo is vanishingly low. This is because (i) most real biomembranes are mostly protein, not lipid, (ii) unlike purely lipid bilayers that can form transient aqueous channels, the high concentrations of proteins serve to stop such activity, (iii) natural evolution long ago selected against transport methods that just let any undesirable products enter a cell, (iv) transporters have now been identified for all kinds of molecules (even water) that were once thought not to require them, (v) many experiments show a massive variation in the uptake of drugs between different cells, tissues, and organisms, that cannot be explained if lipid bilayer transport is significant or if efflux were the only differentiator, and (vi) many experiments that manipulate the expression level of individual transporters as an independent variable demonstrate their role in drug and nutrient uptake (including in cytotoxicity or adverse drug reactions). This makes such transporters valuable both as a means of targeting drugs (not least anti-infectives) to selected cells or tissues and also as drug targets. The same considerations apply to the exploitation of substrate uptake and product efflux transporters in biotechnology. We are also beginning to recognise that transporters are more promiscuous, and antiporter activity is much more widespread, than had been realised, and that such processes are adaptive (i.e., were selected by natural evolution). The purpose of the present review is to summarise the above, and to rehearse and update readers on recent developments. These developments lead us to retain and indeed to strengthen our contention that for transmembrane pharmaceutical drug transport "phospholipid bilayer transport is negligible".

Relocation of dehydroquinate dehydratase to the periplasmic space improves dehydroshikimate production with Gluconobacter oxydans strain NBRC3244. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2021; 105:5883-5894.

Abstract
3-Dehydroshikimate (3-DHS) is a key intermediate for the synthesis of various compounds, including the antiviral drug oseltamivir. The Gluconobacter oxydans strain NBRC3244 intrinsically oxidizes quinate to produce 3-dehydroquinate (3-DHQ) in the periplasmic space. Even though a considerable activity is detected in the recombinant G. oxydans homologously overexpressing type II dehydroquinate dehydratase (DHQase) encoded in the aroQ gene at a pH where it grows, an alkaline shift of the culture medium is required for 3-DHS production in the middle of cultivation. Here, we attempted to adopt type I DHQase encoded in the aroD gene of Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus strain PAL5 because the type I DHQase works optimally at weak acid, which is preferable for growth conditions of G. oxydans. In addition, we anticipated that subcellular localization of DHQase is the cytoplasm, and therefore, transports of 3-DHQ and 3-DHS across the cytoplasmic membrane are rate-limiting steps in the biotransformation. The Sec- and TAT-dependent signal sequences for secretion were attached to the N terminus of AroD to change the subcellular localization. G. oxydans that expresses the TAT-AroD derivative achieved 3-DHS production at a tenfold higher rate than the reference strain that expresses wild-type AroD even devoid of alkaline shift. Enzyme activity with the intact cell suspension and signal sequence cleavage supported the relocation of AroD to the periplasmic space. The present study suggests that the relocation of DHQase improves 3-DHS production in G. oxydans and represents a proof of concept for the potential of enzyme relocation in metabolic engineering. KEY POINTS: • Type-I dehydroquinate dehydratase (DHQase) was expressed in Gluconobacter oxydans. • Cytoplasmic DHQase was relocated to the periplasmic space in G. oxydans. • Relocation of DHQase in G. oxydans improved 3-dehydroshikimate production.
