Abstract
Strain YJY-8, a new γ-polyglutamic acid producer, was separated from fermented soybean paste samples. The strain was identified as a genus of Bacillus by morphological and 16S rDNA sequence analysis and was named Bacillus sp. YJY-8. The optimal medium composition and cultural conditions were studied using a single-factor experiment and a response surface experiment. The optimized medium consisted of monosodium glutamate 70 g/L, glucose 54.3 g/L, glycerol 31.8 g/L, ammonium sulfate 11.1 g/L, yeast extract 3.2 g/L, tryptone 1.5 g/L, L-glutamic acid 6.8 g/L, MgSO4 7H2O 0.5 g/L, FeCl3 6H2O 0.02 g/L, KH2PO4 0.9 g/L, CaCl2 0.03 g/L, MnSO4 H2O 0.3 g/L, ammonium molybdate 0.02 g/L, pH 7.0. The optimal cultivation conditions were 35 °C and pH 7.0. Under the optimized conditions, after 48 hr of cultivation, the highest shaking flask fermentation level of γ-PGA reached 65.2 ± 0.36 g/L. In addition, through fed-batch fermentation in 30 L fermenters, the fermentation level of γ-PGA reached its highest level at 88.42 g/L and productivity was 1.23 g/(L hr) after 72 hr. Then, the effect of γ-PGA on tomato yield was investigated. At the seedling stage, the plant height and stem diameter of γ-PGA treated plants increased by 5.69 and 15.735% after spraying γ-PGA for 19 days. During the flowering and fruiting period, the stem diameter of the γ-PGA treatment group increased by 6.74%, with a maximum increase of 11.65%. The number of fruit branches increased by 0.56-16.29% and the number of fruit sets increased by 1.01-28.47%. At the fruit maturation stage, the yield of tomatoes increased by 10.51, 14.27, and 5.83%.

Abstract
Three genes involved in poly-γ-glutamic acid(γ-PGA)synthesis cloned from Bacillus licheniformis were transformed into cucumber for the first time. Compared with control, its water content increased by 6-14 % and water loss rate decreased by 11-12 %. In zebrafish and human skin experiments, the moisturizing effect of transgenic cucumber was significantly higher than that of CK, γ-PGA and hyaluronic acid group. Transgenic cucumber reduced facial wrinkles and roughness by 19.58 % and 24.97 %, reduced skin melanin content by 5.27 %, increased skin topological angle and L-value by 5.89 % and 2.49 %, and increased the R2 and Q1 values of facial elasticity by 7.67 % and 5.64 %, respectively. The expressions of aqp3, Tyr, silv and OCA2 were down-regulated, eln1, eln2, col1a1a and col1a1b were up-regulated in zebrafish after treated with transgenic cucumber. This study provides an important reference for the endogenous synthesis of important skin care functional molecules in plants.

Abstract
Three medicinal fungi were used to carry out solid-state fermentation (SSF) of wheat bran. The results showed that the use of these fungi for SSF significantly improved wheat bran’s nutritional properties including the extraction yield of soluble dietary fiber (SDF), total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), physical properties containing swelling capacity (SC) and oil absorption capacity (OAC), as well as antioxidant activities. Electronic nose and GC–MS analyses showed that fermented wheat bran had different volatiles profiles compared to unfermented wheat bran. The results suggest that SSF by medicinal fungi is a promising way for the high-value utilization of wheat bran.

Abstract
This study is to reveal the variation of five pivotal substances, including polysaccharides, proteins, isoflavones, fatty acids and volatile components during the soybean fermentation process by Bacillus subtilis natto. After 96 h of soybean fermentation, the polysaccharide contents were significantly decreased, and the glucose and galactose contents showed the greatest decline in all the monosaccharide components. Moreover, isoflavone glycoside levels were decreased, while the isoflavone aglycone levels were increased following the fermentation. In addition, the SCFAs contents were also significantly increased in comparison with the unfermented soybean. Furthermore, 16 amino acids and 36 volatile components were detected in the fermented soybean. Finally, 21 key compounds were identified through PCA and OPLS-DA analysis of total compounds in the fermentation process. These findings demonstrated that Bacillus subtilis natto had a significant influence on the biochemical profiles of soybean fermentation and consequently contributed to its unique quality.

Abstract
Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) and nattokinase (NK) are the main substances produced by Bacillus subtilis natto in solid-state fermentation and have wide application prospects. We found that our strains had higher activity of nattokinase when soybeans were used as substrate to increase the yield of γ-PGA. Commercial production of γ-PGA and nattokinase requires an understanding of the mechanism of co-production. Here, we obtained the maximum γ-PGA yield (358.5 g/kg, w/w) and highest activity of NK during fermentation and analyzed the transcriptome of Bacillus subtilis natto during co-production of γ-PGA and NK. By comparing changes in expression of genes encoding key enzymes and the metabolic pathways associated with the products in genetic engineering, the mechanism of co-production of γ-PGA and nattokinase can be summarized based on RNA-seq analysis. This study firstly provides new insights into the mechanism of co-production of γ-PGA and nattokinase by Bacillus subtilis natto and reveals potential molecular targets to promote the co-production of γ-PGA and nattokinase.

Abstract
With the purpose of developing a novel approach of agricultural waste treatment and overcoming bottlenecks for upscaling solid-state fermentation processes, the type of aerated, continuously stirred solid-state bioreactors were used for the production of γ-PGA by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens JX-6. Using corn stalk and soybean meal, the most common agricultural waste in China, as solid substrates, the maximum production of γ-PGA was 116.88 ± 5.05 g/kg and 102.48 ± 3.30 g/kg in 50 L and 150 L bioreactors, respectively. Production of γ-PGA in 50 L bioreactor was higher than in 150 L bioreactor, demonstrating that a reduction in γ-PGA production occurred as the fermentation system enlarged. An analysis of the interactions among fermentation parameters (temperature, moisture, and pH), γ-PGA production, solid substrates and bacterial communities indicated that different bioreactor capacities caused changes in fermentation parameters and bacterial communities, which in turn affected substrate utilization and γ-PGA production. Overall, obtaining considerable amounts of γ-PGA under non-sterilized fermentation expressed that JX-6 has excellent abilities to adapt to these substrates and conditions. Bioconversion of agricultural waste into γ-PGA in scale-up fermentation was successfully conducted by creating a more stable and suitable fermentation environment in bioreactors.

Abstract
Soybean dregs are restricted as feed additives because they contain anti-nutrient factors. Herein, soybean dreg was bio-transformed by solid-state fermentation (SSF) using a poly γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) producing stain Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NX-2S. The maximum γ-PGA production of 65.79 g/kg was reached in a 5 L fermentation system while the conditions are 70% initial moisture of soybean dregs with addition of molasses meal, 12% inoculum size, 30 °C fermentation temperature, initial pH of 8, and 60 h fermentation time. Meanwhile, continuous batch fermentation was proved feasible. After SSF, the anti-nutritional factors such as trypsin inhibitor, phytic acid and tannin were reduced by 98.7%, 97.8%, and 63.2%, respectively. Compared with unfermented soybean dregs, adding fermented soybean dregs to feed increased the average weight gain of rats by 15.6% and reduced the ratio of feed to meat by 11.3%. Therefore, this study provided a feasible strategy for processing soybean dregs as feed additive.

Investigation of Glutamate Dependence Mechanism for Poly-γ-glutamic Acid Production in Bacillus subtilis on the Basis of Transcriptome Analysis.

Abstract
The development of commercial poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) production by glutamate-dependent strains requires understanding the glutamate dependence mechanism in the strains. Here, we first systematically analyzed the response pattern of Bacillus subtilis to glutamate addition by comparative transcriptomics. Glutamate addition induced great changes in intracellular metabolite concentrations and significantly upregulated genes involved in the central metabolic pathways. Subsequent gene overexpression experiments revealed that only the enhancement of glutamate synthesis pathway successfully led to γ-PGA accumulation without glutamate addition, indicating the key role of intracellular glutamate for γ-PGA synthesis in glutamate-dependent strains. Finally, by a combination of metabolic engineering targets, the γ-PGA titer reached 10.21 ± 0.42 g/L without glutamate addition. Exogenous glutamate further enhanced the γ-PGA yield (35.52 ± 0.26 g/L) and productivity (0.74 g/(L h)) in shake-flask fermentation. This work provides insights into the glutamate dependence mechanism in B. subtilis and reveals potential molecular targets for increasing economical γ-PGA production.

Abstract
At present, submerged fermentation (SmF) is the unique approach for natamycin production. This study aims to propose a strategy for natamycin production through solid-state fermentation (SSF). The maximum natamycin concentration (9.62 mg·gds-1) was obtained with a substrate mixture containing wheat bran, rapeseed cake, rice hull and crude glycerol in a 5 L flask at 28 °C, and the initial moisture content and inoculum size was set as 70% and 15%, individually. A 30 L scale-up fermentation showed similar parameters and produced 9.27 mg·gds-1 natamycin at the 8th day. Besides, natamycin could be continuously produced by repeated-batch fermentation for 5 cycles through SSF. Compared to SmF, SSF led to a 50.05% cost reduction of raw materials, less energy consumption and waste water discharge, which was of great significance in industrial fermentation. To our best knowledge, this is the first report on natamycin production through SSF process.

Abstract
Low-molecular-weight poly-γ-glutamic acid (LMW-γ-PGA) has attracted much attention owing to its great potential in food, agriculture, medicine, and cosmetics. Current methods of LMW-γ-PGA production, including enzymatic hydrolysis, are associated with low operational stability. Here, an efficient method for stable biosynthesis of LMW-γ-PGA was conceived by overexpression of γ-PGA hydrolase in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NB. To establish stable expression of γ-PGA hydrolase (PgdS) during fermentation, a novel plasmid pNX01 was constructed with a native replicon from endogenous plasmid p2Sip, showing a loss rate of 4% after 100 consecutive passages. Subsequently, this plasmid was applied in a screen of high activity PgdS hydrolase, leading to substantial improvements to γ-PGA titer with concomitant decrease in the molecular weight. Finally, a satisfactory yield of 17.62 ± 0.38 g/L LMW-γ-PGA with a weight-average molecular weight of 20-30 kDa was achieved by direct fermentation of Jerusalem artichoke tuber extract. Our study presents a potential method for commercial production of LMW-γ-PGA.

Abstract
Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a biodegradable biopolymer produced by several bacteria, including Bacillus subtilis and other Bacillus species; it has good biocompatibility, is non-toxic, and has various potential biological applications in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and other industries. In this review, we have described the mechanisms of γ-PGA synthesis and gene regulation, its role in fermentation, and the phylogenetic relationships among various pgsBCAE, a biosynthesis gene cluster of γ-PGA, and pgdS, a degradation gene of γ-PGA. We also discuss potential applications of γ-PGA and highlight the established genetic recombinant bacterial strains that produce high levels of γ-PGA, which can be useful for large-scale γ-PGA production.

Abstract
Study on potential of different agro-industrial waste residues for supporting the growth of newly isolated Bacillus sp. TMF-1 strain under solid-state fermentation (SSF) was conducted aiming to produce several industrially valuable enzymes. Since the feasibility of the initial study was confirmed, further objectives included evaluation of several pretreatments of the studied agricultural by-products (soybean meal, sunflower meal, maize bran, maize pericarp, olive oil cake and wheat bran) on the microbial productivity as means of enhancing the yields of produced proteases, α-amylases, cellulases and pectinases. Among acid/alkaline treatment, ultrasound and microwave assisted methods, chemical treatments superiorly affected most of the studied substrates. Highest yields of produced proteases (50.5IUg-1) and α-amylases (50.75IUg-1) were achieved on alkaline treated corn pericarp. Alkaline treatment also promoted the secretion of cellulases on maize bran (1.19IUg-1). Highest yield of pectinases was obtained on untreated soybean meal (64.90IUg-1).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to produce ε-poly-lysine (ε-PL) by Streptomyces albulus PD-1 through solid-state fermentation (SSF) using agro-industrial residues. Maximum ε-PL production (86.62mg/g substrate) was obtained a mixed substrate of rapeseed cake and wheat bran (2:1, w/w) supplemented with glucose (4%, w/w), (NH4)2SO4 (3%, w/w), with an initial moisture content of 65%, initial pH of 7.0 and inoculum size of 13% v/w, incubated at 30°C for 8days. The results of scanning electron microscopy indicated that the filamentous thallus could penetrate the substrate surface. Moreover, repeated-batch SSF was successfully conducted 8 times using 10% substrate as seeds for the next fermentation cycle, and the results suggest that repeated-batch SSF is more efficient because of the shortened lag phase. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on ε-PL production using the SSF process.

Abstract
The use of processes for simultaneous production of bioproducts as enzymes and bioactive compounds is an interesting alternative to reduce environmental impacts. Thus, the aim of this study was to produce simultaneously, using the biorefinery concept, both proteases and bioactive compounds with antioxidant activity from Bacillus sp. P45 cultivation by using different by-products. The integrated process developed in this study enabled to obtain enzymes with proteolytic and keratinolytic properties in a process with alternate substrates from agro-industrial by-products (feather meal, residual feather meal and biomass), thus, creating an interesting alternative to managing them. The residual biomass provided the highest protease activity (1306.6U/mL) and the reused feather meal reached the highest keratinolytic activity (89U/mL), both at 32h of cultivation. Moreover, hydrolysates produced in cultivation using feather meal and residual biomass had high antioxidant activity, they have great potential as natural antioxidants.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is the most abundant, low-cost, bio-renewable resource that holds enormous importance as alternative source for production of biofuels and other biochemicals that can be utilized as building blocks for production of new materials. Enzymatic hydrolysis is an essential step involved in the bioconversion of lignocellulose to produce fermentable monosaccharides. However, to allow the enzymatic hydrolysis, a pretreatment step is needed in order to remove the lignin barrier and break down the crystalline structure of cellulose. The present manuscript is dedicated to reviewing the most commonly applied "green" pretreatment processes used in bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomasses within the "biorefinery" concept. In this frame, the effects of different pretreatment methods on lignocellulosic biomass are described along with an in-depth discussion on the benefits and drawbacks of each method, including generation of potentially inhibitory compounds for enzymatic hydrolysis, effect on cellulose digestibility, and generation of compounds toxic for the environment, and energy and economic demand.

Abstract
The production of poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) by Bacillus subtilis NX-2 using a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) system was tested for the first time in this study. Polypropylene TL-2 was chosen as a suitable carrier, and γ-PGA concentration of 42.7±0.86g/L and productivity of 0.59±0.06g/(Lh) were obtained in batch fermentation. After application of the strategy of dissolved oxygen (DO)-stat feeding, higher γ-PGA concentration and productivity were achieved than with glucose feedback feeding. Finally, the repeated fed-batch cultures implemented in the MBBR system showed high stability, and the maximal γ-PGA concentration and productivity of 74.2g/L and 1.24g/(Lh) were achieved, respectively. In addition, the promotion of oxygen transfer by an MBBR carrier was well explained by a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. These results suggest that an MBBR system could be applied to large-scale γ-PGA production.

Abstract
The actualization of a circular economy through the use of lignocellulosic wastes as renewable resources can lead to reduce the dependence from fossil-based resources and contribute to a sustainable waste management. The integrated biorefineries, exploiting the overall lignocellulosic waste components to generate fuels, chemicals and energy, are the pillar of the circular economy. The biological treatment is receiving great attention for the biorefinery development since it is considered an eco-friendly alternative to the physico-chemical strategies to increase the biobased product recovery from wastes and improve saccharification and fermentation yields. This paper reviews the last advances in the biological treatments aimed at upgrading lignocellulosic wastes, implementing the biorefinery concept and advocating circular economy.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass has been identified as an economic and environmental feedstock for future biotechnological production. Here, for the first time, poly-(γ-glutamic acid) (PGA) production by Bacillus subtilis NX-2 using rice straw is investigated. Based on two-stage hydrolysis and characteristic consumption of xylose and glucose by B. subtilis NX-2, a co-fermentation strategy was designed to better accumulate PGA in a 7.5L fermentor by two feeding methods. The maximum cumulative respective PGA production and PGA productivity were 73.0 ± 0.5 g L(-1) and 0.81 g L(-1) h(-1) by the continuous feeding method, with carbon source cost was saved by 84.2% and 42.5% compared with glucose and cane molasse, respectively. These results suggest that rice straw, a type of abundant, low-cost, non-food lignocellulosic feedstock, may be feasibly and efficiently utilized for industrial-scale production of PGA.

Abstract
Effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) on cell growth and poly(γ-glutamic acid) (γ-PGA) synthesis were studied by adding hydrogen peroxide to a medium of Bacillus subtilis NX-2. After optimizing the addition concentration and time of H2 O2 , a maximum concentration of 33.9 g/L γ-PGA was obtained by adding 100 µM H2 O2 to the medium after 24 H. This concentration was 20.6% higher than that of the control. The addition of diphenyleneiodonium chloride (ROS inhibitor) can interdict the effect of H2 O2 -induced ROS. Transcriptional levels of the cofactors and relevant genes were also determined under ROS stress to illustrate the possible metabolic mechanism contributing to the improve γ-PGA production. The transcriptional levels of genes belonging to the tricarboxylic acid cycle and electron transfer chain system were significantly increased by ROS, which decreased the NADH/NAD+ ratio and increased the ATP levels, thereby providing more reducing power and energy for γ-PGA biosynthesis. The enhanced γ-PGA synthetic genes also directly promoted the formation of γ-PGA. This study was the first to use the ROS control strategy for γ-PGA fermentation and provided valuable information on the possible mechanism by which ROS regulated γ-PGA biosynthesis in B. subtilis NX-2.
