Protein Expr Purif 2024; 223:106558. [PMID: 39074650 DOI: 10.1016/j.pep.2024.106558] [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: 06/20/2024] [Revised: 07/26/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/31/2024]
Abstract
In this study, the cellobiose 2-epimerase gene csce from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus was expressed in Escherichia coli using TB medium containing yeast extract Oxoid and tryptone Oxoid. Interesting, it was found that when the concentration of isopropyl-beta-d-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) and lactose was 0 (no addition), the activity of cellobiose 2-epimerase reached 5.88 U/mL. It was 3.70-fold higher than the activity observed when 1.0 mM IPTG was added. When using M9 medium without yeast extract Oxoid and tryptone Oxoid, cellobiose 2-epimerase gene could not be expressed without IPTG and lactose. However, cellobiose 2-epimerase gene could be expressed when yeast extract Oxoid or tryptone Oxoid was added, indicating that these supplements contained inducers for gene expression. In the absence of IPTG and lactose, the addition of soy peptone Angel-1 or yeast extract Angel-1 to M9 medium significantly upregulated the expression of cellobiose 2-epimerase gene in E. coli BL21 pET28a-csce, and these inductions led to higher expression levels compared to tryptone Oxoid or yeast extract Oxoid. The relative transcription level of csce was consistent with its expression level in E. coli BL21 pET28a-csce. In the medium TB without IPTG and lactose and containing yeast extract Angel-1 and soy peptone Angel-1, the activity of cellobiose 2-epimerase reached 6.88 U/mL, representing a 2.2-fold increase compared to previously reported maximum activity in E. coli. The significance of this study lies in its implications for efficient heterologous expression of recombinant enzyme proteins in E. coli without the need for IPTG and lactose addition.

Abstract
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) subsists in all living organisms and has drawn tremendous attention as a nutraceutical and pharmaceutical product for several diseases such as Alzheimer's, cancer, aging, and vascular dysfunction. Here, NMN was produced intracellularly in a high cell density bioreactor using an engineered Escherichiacoli strain via exponential feeding of co-substrates. Fed-batch culture via exponential feeding of co-substrate (glucose) and continuous feeding of substrate (nicotinamide) were performed using different cumulative nicotinamide concentrations. The highest concentration of 19.3 g/L NMN with a dry cell weight of 117 g/L was acquired from a cumulative nicotinamide concentration of 7.2 g/L with a conversion of 98 % from nicotinamide in 28 h. Further, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis validated the NMN production. This approach will be beneficial in achieving simultaneously low cost and ensuring high quality and quantity of NMN production.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid is a kind of mucopolysaccharide that has wide applications in cosmetics, health food, and orthopedics. Using Streptococcus zooepidemicus ATCC 39920 as parent, a beneficial mutant SZ07 was obtained by UV mutagenesis, giving 1.42 g/L hyaluronic acid in shake flasks. To enhance the efficiency of hyaluronic acid production, a semi-continuous fermentation process consisted of two-stage 3-L bioreactors was developed, in which 1.01 g/L/h productivity and 14.60 g/L hyaluronic acid were obtained. To further enhance the titer of hyaluronic acid, recombinant hyaluronidase SzHYal was added into 2nd stage bioreactor at 6 h to reduce the viscosity of broth. The highest hyaluronic acid titer of 29.38 g/L was achieved with a productivity of 1.13 g/L/h at 300 U/L SzHYal after 24 h. This newly developed semi-continuous fermentation process provides a promising strategy for the industrial production of hyaluronic acid and related polysaccharides.

Abstract
Oxidoreductase is one of the most important biocatalysts for the synthesis of various chiral compounds. However, their whole-cell activity is frequently affected by an insufficient supply of expensive nicotinamide cofactors. This study aimed to overcome such shortcomings by developing a combination fermentation strategy for simultaneously increasing intracellular NADP(H) level, biomass, and glufosinate dehydrogenase activity in E. coli. The results showed that the feeding mode of NAD(H) synthesis precursor and lactose inducer had essential effects on the accumulation level of intracellular NADPH. Adding 40 mg L-1 of L-aspartic acid to the medium increased the intracellular NADP(H) concentration by 36.3%. Under the pH-stat feeding mode and adding 0.4 g L-1 h-1 lactose, the NADP(H) concentration, biomass, and GluDH activity in the 5-L fermenter reached 445.7 μmol L-1, 21.7 gDCW L-1, and 8569.3 U L-1, respectively. As far as we know, this is the highest reported activity of GluDH in the fermentation broth. Finally, the 5000-L fermenter was successfully scaled up to use this fermentation approach. The combination fermentation strategy might serve as a useful approach for the high-activity fermentation of other NADPH-dependent oxidoreductases.

Abstract
N-acetyl-β-D glucosamine (GlcNAc) is wildly used in cosmetics, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals. The traditional chemical process for GlcNAc production from chitin causes serious acidic pollution. Therefore, the enzymatic hydrolysis becomes a great promising and alternative strategy to produce GlcNAc. β-N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAGase) can hydrolyze chitin to produce GlcNAc. Here, a GH3 family NAGase encoding gene BlNagZ from Bacillus licheniformis was expressed extracellularly in Escherichia coli guided by signal peptide PelB. The recombinant BlNagZ presented the best activity at 60°C and pH 5.5 with a high specific activity of 13.05 U/mg. The BlNagZ activity in the fermentation supernatant can reach 13.62 U/mL after optimizing the culture conditions, which is 4.25 times higher than optimization before. Finally, combining BlNagZ with chitinase ChiA we identified before, chitin conversion efficiency to GlcNAc can reach 89.2% within 3.5 h. In all, this study provided not only a high active NAGase, and a secreted expression strategy to reduce the cost of production, which is conducive to the industrial application.

Abstract
A high heterologous expression of an alkaline pectate lyase (APL) pelNK93I in E. coli was obtained through optimizing the lactose feeding and fed-batch fermentation. The highest soluble APL activity produced by E. coli BL21 (pET22b-pelNK93I) was 10,181 U/mL which is the highest level so far. On this basis, to improve the extracellular yield of APL, optimized glycine feeding was used to achieve elevated extracellular production of pelNK93I. The highest extracellular APL activity produced by E. coli BL21 (pET22b-pelNK93I) was 6357 U/mL which was also relatively higher than that in previous reports. The final productivity of APL was 282.8 U/mL/h in the fermentation of E. coli BL21 (pET22b-pelNK93I) in a 10 L fermenter. Thus the current study has provided a cost-effective method for the over-expression and preparation of alkaline pectate lyase pelNK93I for its industrial applications. Moreover, pelNK93I (4 U/mL) used for bioscouring increased cottonseed husk removal and radial capillary effect of cotton fabric by 37.63% and 47.06%, respectively, making it a promising enzyme in green textile technology.

Abstract
Glucose isomerase (GIase), an efficient enzyme in the isomerization of d-glucose to d-fructose, has been widely used in food processing. In this study, an efficient expression system for a Thermobifida fusca GIase (GIaseTfus) in Escherichia coli was firstly designed via a two-stage feeding strategy for improving expression level. The cultivation strategy was performed at an exponential feeding rate during the pre-induction phase, followed by a gradient-decreasing feeding rate at the induction phase in a 3-L fermenter. During this process, the effect of induction conditions and the complex nitrogen supplementation in feeding solutions on GIaseTfus production were investigated and optimized. Under the optimal conditions, the yield of GIaseTfus reached 124.1 U/mL, which is the highest expression level of GIase by recombinant E. coli reported to date. Additionally, the obtained GIaseTfus was performed to produce high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) with conversion approacing 55 % from glucose (45 %, w/v) to fructose. According to the molecular dynamic simulation, a number of hydrogen bonds existed in the enzyme-substrate complex could stablilize the transient states, and a appreciate reaction distance of M1 catalytic site and oxygen atom of glucose make the reaction proceed easily, thus resulting in the efficient biosynthesis of HFCS. The function of GIaseTfus renders it a valuable catalyst for HFCS-55 (containing 55 % d-fructose) manufacturing, the most favorable industrial product of HFCS. The efficient expression of GIaseTfus and its efficient HFCS production lays the foundation for its proming industrial application.

Abstract
A novel BL312 milk-clotting enzyme (MCE) exhibited high-level expression and remarkable milk-clotting activity (MCA) (865 ± 20 SU/mL) that was 3.3-fold higher than the control by optimizing induction conditions in recombinant Escherichia. coli harboring pET24a-proMCE. Through substrate-binding region analyses and modification, MCE-G165A was identified from nine mutants and showed a proteolytic activity of 49.4 ± 2.4 U/mL and an MCA/PA ratio of 18.2, which were respectively 1.9-fold lower and 2.0-fold higher than those of the control. The purified MCE-G165A (28 kDa) exhibited weak αs-casein, β-casein, and strong κ-casein (κ-CN) hydrolysis levels as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The milk-clotting mechanism for MCE-G165A was the primary hydrolysis of Met106-Ala107 and Asn123-Thr124 bonds in κ-CN, as determined by mass spectrometry. MCE-G165A showed different hydrolysis sites in casein, leading to various functional peptides. Feasible methods for obtaining MCEs suitable as calf rennet substitutes are presented.

Abstract
: Energy demand is constantly growing, and, nowadays, fossil fuels still play a dominant role in global energy production, despite their negative effects on air pollution and the emission of greenhouse gases, which are the main contributors to global warming. An alternative clean source of energy is represented by the lignocellulose fraction of plant cell walls, the most abundant carbon source on Earth. To obtain biofuels, lignocellulose must be efficiently converted into fermentable sugars. In this regard, the exploitation of cell wall lytic enzymes (CWLEs) produced by lignocellulolytic fungi and bacteria may be considered as an eco-friendly alternative. These organisms evolved to produce a variety of highly specific CWLEs, even if in low amounts. For an industrial use, both the identification of novel CWLEs and the optimization of sustainable CWLE-expressing biofactories are crucial. In this review, we focus on recently reported advances in the heterologous expression of CWLEs from microbial and plant expression systems as well as some of their industrial applications, including the production of biofuels from agricultural feedstock and of value-added compounds from waste materials. Moreover, since heterologous expression of CWLEs may be toxic to plant hosts, genetic strategies aimed in converting such a deleterious effect into a beneficial trait are discussed.

Abstract
Escherichia coli is one kind of the simple and excellent biosystem to overexpress heterologous enzymes, such as keratinolytic protease, an excellent enzyme to hydrolyze keratin substrate for broad industrial application. However, protein expression in E. coli frequently faces some problems such as inactive and inclusion body formation. This work described a series of protein engineering strategies of N-terminal propeptide replacement and site-directed mutagenesis to modify this enzyme activity and production. Site-directed mutagenesis (S180G/Y215S) on N-terminal propeptide altered mutant contributed to the highest specific activity (4725 ± 65 U/mg, more than 1300 U/mg improvement than wild-type enzyme). This comprehensive mutation also achieved 2.5-fold improvement of extracellular enzyme yield in shake-flask level. The fermentation strategies about optimizing glycerol feeding and inducing point in scale-up bioreactor resulted in tremendous leakage of keratinolytic protease (954 mg/L extracellular yield within 48 h, about 9.26-fold higher than the original shake-flask level) as well as cell lysis. Although this proposed strategy faces a major challenge to maintain cell integrity or viability, it still exists the opportunity to realize other enzymes extracellular expression in E. coli system and simplify downstream processing to meet the industrial application.

Abstract
Native d-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) that is expressed mostly as inclusion body and its toxicity for E. coli hamper efficient heterologous expression. In this study, the soluble expression of DAAO from Rhodosporidium toruloides (RtDAAO) was improved in E. coli through N-terminal modification, but the cell biomass was decreased. Then a trade-off between DAAO expression and biomass was achieved to obtain the highest volumetric activity of DAAO through regulated the number of N-terminus histidine residues. When variant 2H3G was fused with three N-terminus histidine residues, the volumetric activity was increased by 3.1 times and the biomass was not significant change compared with the wild type. Finally, the N-terminus disordered region of RtDAAO (HSQK) was replaced with HHHG and the variant enzyme activity reached 80.7U/mL (with a 40 percent of inactive DAAO reduced) in a 7.5L fermenter in 24h.

Immobilization of alkaline polygalacturonate lyase from Bacillus subtilis on the surface of bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoate nano-granules. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2017; 101:3247-3258.

Abstract
Alkaline polygalacturonate lyase (PGL), one of the pectinolytic enzymes, has been widely used for the bioscouring of cotton fibers, biodegumming, and biopulp production. In our study, PGL from Bacillus subtilis was successfully immobilized on the surface of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) nanogranules by fusing PGL to the N-terminal of PHA synthase from Ralstonia eutropha via a designed linker. The PGL-decorated PHA beads could be simply achieved by recombinant fermentation and consequent centrifugation. The fused PGL occupied 0.985% of the total weight of purified PHA granules, which was identified by mass spectrometer-based quantitative proteomics. The activity of immobilized PGL (184.67 U/mg PGL protein) was a little lower than that of the free PGL (215.93 U/mg PGL protein). The immobilization process did not affect the optimal pH and the optimal temperature of the PGL, but it did enhance the thermostability as well as the pH stability at certain conditions, which will extend the practicability of the immobilized PGL-PHA beads in the alkaline and generally harsh bioscouring process. Furthermore, the immobilized PGL still retained more than 60% of its initial activity after 8 cycles of reuse. Our study provided a novel and promising approach for cost-efficient in vivo PGL immobilization, contributing to wider commercialization of this environmental-friendly biocatalyst.

Abstract
Escherichia coli overexpressing glutamate decarboxylase GadB can produce gamma-aminobutyric acid with addition of monosodium glutamate. The yield and productivity of gamma-aminobutyric acid might be significantly improved if the overexpressed GadB in E. coli cells can be excreted outside, where it can directly transforms monosodium glutamate to gamma-aminobutyric acid. In this study, GadB was fused to signal peptides TorA or PelB, respectively, and overexpressed in E. coli BL21(DE3). It was found that TorA could facilitate GadB secretion much better than PelB. Conditions for GadB secretion and gamma-aminobutyric acid production were optimized in E. coli BL21(DE3)/pET20b-torA-gadB, leading the secretion of more than half of the overexpressed GadB. Fed-batch fermentation for GadB expression and gamma-aminobutyric acid production of BL21(DE3)/pET20b-torA-gadB was sequentially performed in one fermenter; 264.4 and 313.1 g/L gamma-aminobutyric acid were obtained with addition of monosodium glutamate after 36 and 72 h, respectively.

Abstract
Abstract
To improve the extracellular production of alkaline β-mannanase from alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. N16-5 in Escherichia coli, two truncated recombinant mannanases (32a-ManAR2 and 22b-ManAR2) were obtained. Compared with the full-length mannanases (32a-ManAR1 and 22b-ManAR1), the truncated mannanases not only showed higher secretion rate, but also exhibited higher thermostability and alkalistability. The K m value (11 mg/mL) of 32a-ManAR2 was higher than that (1.46 mg/mL) of 32a-ManAR1. The specific activity of 22b-ManAR2 was 2.7 times higher than that of 22b-ManAR1. 22b-ManAR2 showed the highest k cat/K m value of 602.7 ml/mg s. The parameters of induction for recombinant mannanase production of E. coli BL21 (pET32a-manAR2) and E. coli BL21 (pET22b-manAR2) were subsequently optimized. The yield of soluble mannanase was found to be enhanced with lower induction temperature (25 °C), lower IPTG concentration (0.01–0.05 mM), and Triton X-100 supplement (0.1 %) in a shake flask. Moreover, a one-time feeding strategy and Triton X-100 supplement were applied in production of 22b-ManAR2 in a 10 L fermentor. The productivity of the total soluble mannanase reached 9284.64 U/mL with the extracellular rate of 74 % at 46 h of fermentation, which was the highest productive level of alkaline β-mannanase in recombinant E. coli to date.

Abstract
Expression of pRSETA manb-1601 construct in Hi-Control Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells improved recombinant endo-mannanase (ManB-1601) production by 2.73-fold (1821±100U/ml). A low-cost, agro-industrial residue supplemented industrial medium for enhanced and economical production of ManB-1601 was developed in two mutual phases. Phase-I revealed the potential of various pre- (induction time: 5h, induction mode: lactose 0.5mM) and post-induction [peptone supplementation: 0.94%(w/v), glycerol 0.123%(v/v)] parameters for enhanced production of ManB-1601 and resulted in 4.61-fold (8406±400U/ml) and 2.53-fold (3.30g/l) higher ManB-1601 and biomass production, respectively. Under phase-II, economization of phase-I medium was carried out by reducing/replacing costly ingredients with solubilized-defatted flax seed meal (S-DFSM), which resulted in 3.25-fold (5926U/ml) higher ManB-1601 production. Industrial potential of ManB-1601 was shown in oil extraction from copra as enzyme treatment led to cracks, peeling, fracturing and smoothening of copra, which facilitated higher (18.75%) oil yield.

Abstract
The pullulanase from Bacillus deramificans is an industrially useful starch-debranching enzyme that is difficult to produce in large quantities. In this study, B. deramificans pullulanase was found to be an aggregation-prone protein that can be solubilized from the insoluble fraction by surfactants in vitro. Studying the effects of various surfactants on pullulanase production in Escherichia coli in shake flasks revealed that optimal pullulanase production could be obtained by adding 0.5% Triton X-100 during the later period of fermentation. A modified fed-batch fermentation strategy was then applied to the production of pullulanase in a 3-L fermentor. When supplemented with 0.5% Triton X-100 at 40 h, the maximal extracellular pullulanase production and secretion ratio were 812.4 U mL(-1) and 86.0%, which were 46.2- and 47.8-fold that of the control, respectively.

Abstract
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase is an essential regulatory enzyme of glycolysis in the cestode parasite, Raillietina echinobothrida, and is considered a potential target for anthelmintic action because of its differential activity from that of its avian host. However, due to the unavailability of its structure, the mechanism of regulation of PEPCK from R. echinobothrida (rePEPCK) and its interaction with possible modulators remain unclear. Hence, in this study, the rePEPCK gene was cloned into pGEX-4T-3 and overexpressed for its characterization. On being induced by IPTG, the recombinant rePEPCK was expressed as inclusion bodies (IBs); hence, various agents, like different inducer concentrations, temperature, time, host cell types, culture media, pH, and additives, were used to bring the protein to soluble form. Finally, a significant amount (∼46%) of rePEPCK was solubilized from IBs by adding 2M l-arginine. Near-UV circular dichroism spectra analysis indicated that l-arginine (2M) had no effect on the conformation of the protein. In this study, we have reported a yield of ∼73mg of purified rePEPCK per 1L of culture. The purified rePEPCK retained its biological activity, and Km of the enzyme for its substrate was determined and discussed. The availability of recombinant rePEPCK may help in biochemical- and biophysical-studies to explore its molecular mechanisms and regulations.

Abstract
Nitrile hydratase (NHase) is an important industrial enzyme that biosynthesizes high-value amides. However, most of NHases expressed in Escherichia coli easily aggregate to inactive inclusion bodies unless the induction temperature is reduced to approximately 20°C. The NHase from Aurantimonas manganoxydans has been functionally expressed in E. coli, and exhibits considerable potential for the production of nicotinamide in industrial application. In this study, the effects of chaperones including GroEL/ES, Dnak/J-GrpE and trigger factor on the expression of the recombinant Co-type NHase were investigated. The results indicate that three chaperones can significantly promote the active expression of the recombinant NHase at 30°C. The total NHase activities reached to 263 and 155U/ml in shake flasks when the NHase was co-expressed with GroEL/ES and DnaK/J-GrpE, which were 52- and 31-fold higher than the observed activities without chaperones, respectively. This increase is possibly due to the soluble expression of the recombinant NHase assisted by molecular chaperones. Furthermore, GroEL/ES and DnaK/J-GrpE were determined to promote the maturation of the Co-type NHase in E. coli under the absence of the parental activator gene. These knowledge regarding the chaperones effect on the NHase expression are useful for understanding the biosynthesis of Co-type NHase.

Abstract
Process optimization strategies were developed to improve extracellular production of recombinant Bacillus deramificans pullulanase in Escherichia coli. Cell growth and pullulanase production in shake-flask cultures were investigated as a function of the concentration of added glycine, and the type and concentration of inducer. From the results of these experiments, a fed-batch fermentation strategy for high-cell-density cultivation was applied in a 3-L fermentor. The gradual addition of lactose was utilized for the induction of protein expression. The optimal lactose feeding rate and induction point were 0.4gL(-1)h(-1) and a dry cell weight (DCW) of 15gL(-1), respectively. Furthermore, a glycine feeding strategy was formulated to promote the secretion of recombinant protein. The optimal total and extracellular pullulanase activity were 2523.5 and 1567.9UmL(-1), respectively, which represent 1.2 and 22.6-fold increases compared with those observed under unoptimized conditions.

Abstract
To explore a better expression system for the production of keratinase, the keratinase gene from Bacillus licheniformis BBE11-1 was expressed in Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Pichia pastoris. The corresponding recombinant keratinases were named ker E, ker B, and ker P, respectively. All recombinant keratinases had an optimal pH at 10 although the pH stability of ker E and ker P was higher than that of ker E. The optimal temperature and thermostability of ker P were enhanced compared with those of ker E and ker B. The recombinant keratinases were inhibited by Mn2+ but experienced little influence from other metal ions. Furthermore, all recombinant keratinases could retain almost 80 % activity after treatment with 1 M hydrogen peroxide for 5 h. Under optimized conditions in a 3-L fermenter, the maximum keratinase activities obtained from recombinant B. subtilis and P. pastoris were 3,010 and 1,050 U/mL, respectively. This maximum keratinase activity from B. subtilis is the highest activity ever reported for any bacterial strain. These results indicate that B. subtilis is the ideal host for keratinase production, with potential applications in textile processing and feed supplements.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biotechnological applications of microbial pectate lyases (Pels) in plant fiber processing are considered as environmentally friendly. As such, they become promising substitutes for conventional chemical degumming process. Since applications of Pels in various fields are widening, it is necessary to explore new pectolytic microorganisms and enzymes for efficient and effective usage. Here, we describe the cloning, expression, characterization and application of the recombinant Pel protein from a pectolytic bacterium of the genus Paenibacillus in Escherichia coli. RESULTS A Pel gene (pelN) was cloned using degenerate PCR and inverse PCR from the chromosomal DNA of Paenibacillus sp. 0602. The open reading frame of pelN encodes a 30 amino acid signal peptide and a 445 amino acid mature protein belonging to the polysaccharide lyase family 1. The maximum Pel activity produced by E. coli in shake flasks reached 2,467.4 U mL⁻¹, and the purified recombinant enzyme exhibits a specific activity of 2,060 U mg⁻¹ on polygalacturonic acid (PGA). The maximum activity was observed in a buffer with 5 mM Ca²⁺ at pH 9.8 and 65°C. PelN displays a half-life of around 9 h and 42 h at 50°C and 45°C, respectively. The biochemical treatment achieved the maximal reduction of percentage weight (30.5%) of the ramie bast fiber. CONCLUSIONS This work represents the first study that describes the extracellular expression of a Pel gene from Paenibacillus species in E. coli. The high yield of the extracellular overexpression, relevant thermostability and efficient degumming using combined treatments indicate its strong potential for large-scale industrial production.

Abstract
The sustainable supply of lipids is the bottleneck for current biodiesel production. Here microbial recycling of glycerol, byproduct of biodiesel production to biodiesel in engineered Escherichia coli strains was reported. The KC3 strain with capability of producing fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) from glucose was used as a starting strain to optimize fermentation conditions when using glycerol as sole carbon source. The YL15 strain overexpressing double copies of atfA gene displayed 1.7-fold increase of FAEE productivity compared to the KC3 strain. The titer of FAEE in YL15 strain reached to 813 mg L(-1) in minimum medium using glycerol as sole carbon source under optimized fermentation conditions. The titer of glycerol-based FAEE production can be significantly increased by both genetic modifications and fermentation optimization. Microbial recycling of glycerol to biodiesel expands carbon sources for biodiesel production.

Abstract
The present work aims to construct a robust recombinant Bacillus subtilis to achieve secretory production of alkaline polygalacturonate lyase (PGL). First, 6 signal peptides (amyX, bpr, vpr, yvgO, wapA and nprE) were screened with a semi-rational approach and comparatively investigated their effects on the production of PGL. The signal peptide bpr directed efficient PGL secretory expression and increased PGL titer to 313.7 U mL(-1). By optimizing and applying strong promoter P43 and Shine-Dalgarno sequence, higher titer of 446.3 U mL(-1) PGL was achieved. Finally, the capacity of the recombinant B. subtilis WB43CB was evaluated with a fed-batch strategy in 3 L fermentor. The PGL titer reached 632.6 U mL(-1) with a productivity of 17.6 U mL(-1) h(-1), which was the highest secretory production of PGL by the B. subtilis system. The recombinant B. subtilis strain WB43CB constructed in the present work has great potential in production of alkaline PGL.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of temperature, IPTG (Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside) concentration, and osmolytes (proline, K-glutamate, and betaine) on cell growth and soluble pullulanase productivity of recombinant Escherichia coli were investigated. The yield of soluble pullulanase was found to be enhanced with decrease in cultivation temperature, lower IPTG concentration, and betaine supplementation in a shake flask. In addition, a modified two-stage feeding strategy was proposed and applied in a 3-L fermentor supplied with 20mM betaine, which achieved a dry cell weight of 59.3 g L(-1). Through this cultivation approach at 25 °C, the total soluble activity of pullulanase reached 963.9 U mL(-1), which was 8.3-fold higher than that observed without addition of betaine at 30 °C (115.8 U mL(-1)). The higher expression of soluble pullulanase in a scalable semisynthetic medium showed the potential of the proposed process for the industrial production of soluble enzyme.

Abstract
In this work, a glutaryl-7-aminocephalosporanic acid acylase (GLA) coding gene was cloned from Pseudomonas diminuta NK703 which was screened from oilfield. The concerted effects of the expression system, inducing condition and culture medium on the expression of NK703 GLA in E. coli were firstly investigated. The best combination was the recombinant E. coli strain of pET-28a+GLA/BL21(DE3) with 2.0% (w/v) lactose inducing in YT medium at 25°C. Then, by optimizing the components of culture medium, a synthetic medium with dextrin and a feeding medium with glycerol as the carbon sources were developed to further enhance the GLA yield and improve the GLA solubility. In the end, the NK703 GLA activity increased about 50-fold, reached 14,470 ± 465 U/L, and the GLA productivity and the proportion of soluble GLA to the total soluble protein attained 206.0 ± 9.033 UL(-1)h(-1) and 60.13%, respectively. Scaling up the GLA production in 3.7 L fermenter under the optimized conditions identified in shake flask, the GLA activity also reached 12,406±521U/L, which was the highest report at fermenter level.

Abstract
A keratin-degrading strain Stenotrophomonas maltophilia BBE11-1 was grown in a 3-L batch fermenter containing wool waste as the main medium and cell growth rate was determined as the key factor to affect keratinase yield. Three strategies of temperature-shift procedure, two-stage DO control and fed-batch process were used to change growth rate. And a 62.2% improvement of keratinase yield was achieved. With the glucose fed-batch procedure in 30-L fermenter, keratinase production was significantly improved up to 117.7% (1728 U/ml) as compared with initial data (793.8 U/ml) in a 3-L fermenter and with much shortened fermentation time within 18 h. Significant structure changes and high levels of free amino acids from wool decomposition indicated the possible applications for wool waste management and fertilizer industry. The remarkable digestion of wool cuticle also suggested its potential utilization in textile industry.

Abstract
Microbial enzymes have been used in a large number of fields, such as chemical, agricultural and biopharmaceutical industries. The enzyme production rate and yield are the main factors to consider when choosing the appropriate expression system for the production of recombinant proteins. Recombinant enzymes have been expressed in bacteria (e.g., Escherichia coli, Bacillus and lactic acid bacteria), filamentous fungi (e.g., Aspergillus) and yeasts (e.g., Pichia pastoris). The favorable and very advantageous characteristics of these species have resulted in an increasing number of biotechnological applications. Bacterial hosts (e.g., E. coli) can be used to quickly and easily overexpress recombinant enzymes; however, bacterial systems cannot express very large proteins and proteins that require post-translational modifications. The main bacterial expression hosts, with the exception of lactic acid bacteria and filamentous fungi, can produce several toxins which are not compatible with the expression of recombinant enzymes in food and drugs. However, due to the multiplicity of the physiological impacts arising from high-level expression of genes encoding the enzymes and expression hosts, the goal of overproduction can hardly be achieved, and therefore, the yield of recombinant enzymes is limited. In this review, the recent strategies used for the high-level expression of microbial enzymes in the hosts mentioned above are summarized and the prospects are also discussed. We hope this review will contribute to the development of the enzyme-related research field.

Abstract
An alkaline α-amylase gene from alkaliphilic Alkalimonas amylolytica was synthesized based on the preferred codon usage of Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris, respectively, and then was expressed in the according heterologous host, E. coli BL21 (DE3) and P. pastoris GS115. The alkaline α-amylase expressed in E. coli was designated AmyA, whereas that produced by P. pastoris was designated AmyB. The specific activity of AmyA and AmyB was 16.0 and 16.6 U/mg at pH 9.5 and 50°C, respectively. The optimal pH and pH stability of AmyA and AmyB were similar, whereas the optimum temperature and thermal stability of AmyB were slightly enhanced compared with those of AmyA. The AmyA and AmyB had a similar melting temperature of 64°C and the same catalytic efficiency (k(cat) /K(m) ) of 2.0 × 10(6) L/(mol min). AmyA and AmyB were slightly activated by 1 mM Co(2+) , Ca(2+) , or Na(+) , but inhibited by all other metal ions (K(+) , Mg(2+) , Fe(3+) , Fe(2+) , Zn(2+) , Mn(2+) , and Cu(2+) ). Tween 80 or Tween 60 (10% (w/v)) had little influence on the stability of AmyA and AmyB, while the 10% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulfate caused the complete loss of AmyA and AmyB activities. The AmyA and AmyB were stable in the presence of solid detergents (washing powder), while were less stable in liquid detergents. Under the optimal conditions in 3-L bioreactor, the extracellular AmyB activity reached 600 U/mL, which was about 10 times as that of AmyA. These results indicated that P. pastoris was a preferable host for alkaline α-amylase expression and the produced alkaline α-amylase had a certain application potential in solid detergents.

Abstract
α-Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase is a key enzyme in the cyclodextrin industry. The Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus megaterium was chosen for production of recombinant α-CGTase for safety concerns. Successful production of heterologous α-CGTase was achieved by adapting the original α-cgt gene to the codon usage of B. megaterium by systematic codon optimization. This balanced the tRNA pool and reduced ribosomal traffic jams. Protein expression and secretion was ensured by using the strong inducible promoter P(xyl) and the signal peptide SP(LipA). The impact of culture medium composition and induction strategies on α-CGTase production was systematically analyzed. Production and secretion at 32 °C for 24 h using modified culture medium was optimal for α-CGTase yield. Batch- and simple fed-batch fermentation was applied to achieve a high yield of 48.9 U·mL(-1), which was the highest activity reported for a Bacillus species, making this production system a reasonable alternative to Escherichia coli.
