Abstract
Barley, rich in bioactive components including dietary fiber, polyphenolic compounds and functional proteins, exhibits health benefits such as regulating glucose and lipid metabolism. Previous studies have found that the content and composition of free phenolic acids in barley may be significantly changed by fermentation with the laboratory patented strain Lactobacillus plantarum dy-1 (L. p dy-1), but the mechanism of enzymatic release of phenolic acid remains to be elucidated. Based on this, this study aimed to identify the key enzyme in L. p dy-1 responsible for releasing the bound phenolic acid and to further analyze its enzymatic properties. The Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes database revealed that L. p dy-1 encodes 7 types of auxiliary enzymes, among which we have identified a membrane sulfatase. The enzyme gene LPMS05445 was heterologous to that expressed in E. coli, and a recombinant strain was induced to produce the target protein and purified. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was about 59.9 kDa, with 578.21 U mg-1 enzyme activity. The optimal temperature and pH for LPMS05445 expression were 40 °C and 7.0, respectively. Furthermore, enzymatic hydrolysis by LPMS05445 can obviously change the surface microstructure of dietary fiber from barley bran and enhance the release of bound phenolic acid, thereby increasing the free phenolic acid content and improving its physiological function. In conclusion, sulfatase produced by Lactobacillus plantarum dy-1 plays a key role in releasing bound phenolic acids during the fermentation of barley.

Targeted Formation of Biofilms on the Surface of Graphite Electrodes as an Effective Approach to the Development of Biosensors for Early Warning Systems. BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:239.

Abstract
Biofilms based on bacteria Pseudomonas veronii (Ps. veronii) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) and yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) were used for novel biosensor creation for rapid biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) monitoring. Based on the electrochemical measurement results, it was shown that the endogenous mediator in the matrix of E. coli and Ps. veronii biofilms and ferrocene form a two-mediator system that improves electron transport in the system. Biofilms based on Ps. veronii and E. coli had a high biotechnological potential for BOD assessment; bioreceptors based on such biofilms had high sensitivity (the lower limits of detectable BOD5 concentrations were 0.61 (Ps. veronii) and 0.87 (E. coli) mg/dm3) and high efficiency of analysis (a measurement time 5-10 min). The maximum biosensor response based on bacterial biofilms has been observed in the pH range of 6.6-7.2. The greatest protective effect was found for biofilms based on E. coli, which has high long-term stability (151 days for Ps. veronii and 163 days for E. coli). The results of the BOD5 analysis of water samples obtained using the developed biosensors had a high correlation with the results of the standard 5-day method (R2 = 0.9820, number of tested samples is 10 for Ps. veronii, and R2 = 0.9862, number of tested samples is 10 for E. coli). Thus, biosensors based on Ps. veronii biofilms and E. coli biofilms could be a novel analytical system to give early warnings of pollution.

Abstract
The microbial consortium FA12 that can release ferulic acid (FA) by fermenting distiller's grains was screened from Daqu. Taibaiella, Comamonadaceae, and Ochrobacum were highly abundant in FA12 by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. In the process of long-term acclimation with distiller's grains as a medium, the biomass of FA12 remained stable, and the pH value of fermentation liquid was also relatively stable. Meanwhile, the activities of cellulase, xylanase, and feruloyl esterase secreted by FA12 were stable in the ranges of 0.2350-0.4470, 0.1917-0.3078, and 0.1103-0.1595 U/mL, respectively, and the release of FA could reach 133.77 μg/g. It is proven that the microbial consortium has good genetic stability. In addition, the structural changes of lignocellulose in distiller's grains before and after fermentation were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the changes of distiller's grains weight and lignocellulose content before and after fermentation were also detected. These results all confirmed that FA12 had the function of degrading distiller's grains. In this study, we explored a method to use microbial communities to release FA from distiller's grains and degrade lignocellulose in the waste, which opened up a new way for the application of the high value of lost waste.

Abstract
Gut microbiota plays an important role in regulating enteric, immune and neural pathways. Many neuropsychiatric disorders such as anxiety, depression, autism and cognitive behaviour are associated with gut dysbiosis. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and short-chain fatty acids produced by gut bacteria influence gastrointestinal and neurological functions. Ferulic acid esterase (FAE) which releases ferulic acid (FA) from feruloylated sugar ester conjugates, naturally found in grains, fruits and vegetables, is also produced by some gut bacteria and helps prevent neurodegeneration. These properties provide bacteria with the ability to maintain intestinal barrier function and prevent neuropsychiatric disorders. Therefore, this study aims to isolate GABA and FAE-producing LAB and characterize their bioactive and probiotic properties. A total of twelve cultures were isolated, of which eight bacteria positive for GABA, FAE and SCFA production were selected for further investigation. All selected bacteria were positive for bile salt hydrolase (BSH) and showed acid tolerance, resistance to bile salt, stimulated gastric and pancreatic juice, and auto- and co-aggregation properties. Furthermore, selected LAB showed mucin adhesion efficiency greater than 80% and exhibited γ-hemolytic activity. 16S rRNA sequencing identified NS0969, B1, C1, C2, M1, M2, and R2 as Limosilactobacillus fermentum and R1 as Lactiplantibacillus pentosus. This study showed that selected bacteria and/or their postbiotic preparations can be used as potential psychobiotics.

Abstract
The poor lipophilicity and instability of water-soluble polyphenols limit their bioavailability and application in food. However, increasing attention has been given to water-soluble polyphenols due to their multiple biological activities, which prompts the modification of the structure of water-soluble polyphenols to improve their lipophilicity and stability and enable more efficient application. This review presents the enzymatic biosynthesis of lipophilic derivatives of water-soluble polyphenols, which will change the molecular structure of water-soluble polyphenols based on the loss of hydroxyl or carboxyl groups. Therefore, the effects of reaction factors on the structure of polyphenol derivatives and the change in their bioactivities will be further analyzed. Previous studies have shown that lipases, solvent systems, and hydrophobic groups are major factors influencing the synthesis and lipophilicity of polyphenol derivatives. Moreover, the biological activities of polyphenol derivatives were changed to a certain extent, such as through the enhancement or weakening of antioxidant activity in different systems and the increase in anti-influenza virus activity and antibacterial activity. The improvement of lipophilicity also expands polyphenol application in food. This review may contribute to the efficient synthesis of lipophilic derivatives of water-soluble polyphenols to extend the utilization and application range of polyphenols.

Abstract
There is still a large amount of ferulic acid (FA), an outstanding antioxidant, present in agricultural residues. Enzymatic hydrolysis has been regarded as the most effective way to release FA. This present study therefore selected feruloyl esterase (FAE) and xylanase (XYN) from the metagenomes of a cow rumen and a camel rumen, respectively, for their recombinant expression in Escherichia coli BL21 and further application in releasing FA. After screening the candidate signal peptides, the optimal one for each enzyme, which were selected as SP1 and SP4, respectively, was integrated into the vectors pET22b(+) and pETDuet-1. Among the generated E. coli strains SP1-F, SP4-X, and SP1-F-SP4-X that could express extracellular enzymes either separately or simultaneously, the latter one performed the best in relation to degrading the biomass and releasing FA. Under the optimized culture and induction conditions, the strain SP1-F-SP4-X released 90% of FA from 10% of de-starched wheat bran and produced 314.1 mg/L FA, which was deemed to be the highest obtained value to the best of our knowledge. This result could pave a way for the re-utilization of agricultural residues and enhancing their add-value.

Abstract
Ferulic acid and related hydroxycinnamic acids, used as antioxidants and preservatives in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, are among the most abundant phenolic compounds present in plant biomass. Identification of novel compounds that can produce ferulic acid and hydroxycinnamic acids, that are safe and can be mass-produced, is critical for the sustainability of these industries. In this study, we aimed to obtain and characterize a feruloyl esterase (LaFae) from Lactobacillus acidophilus. Our results demonstrated that LaFae reacts with ethyl ferulate and can be used to effectively produce ferulic acid from wheat bran, rice bran and corn stalks. In addition, xylanase supplementation was found to enhance LaFae enzymatic hydrolysis, thereby augmenting ferulic acid production. To further investigate the active site configuration of LaFae, crystal structures of unliganded and ethyl ferulate-bound LaFae were determined at 2.3 and 2.19 Å resolutions, respectively. Structural analysis shows that a Phe34 residue, located at the active site entrance, acts as a gatekeeper residue and controls substrate binding. Mutating this Phe34 to Ala produced an approximately 1.6-fold increase in LaFae activity against p-nitrophenyl butyrate. Our results highlight the considerable application potential of LaFae to produce ferulic acid from plant biomass and agricultural by-products.

Discovery of a bifunctional xylanolytic enzyme with arabinoxylan arabinofuranohydrolase-d3 and endo-xylanase activities and its application in the hydrolysis of cereal arabinoxylans.

Abstract
Xylanolytic enzymes, with both endo-xylanase and arabinoxylan arabinofuranohydrolase (AXH) activities, are attractive for the economically feasible conversion of recalcitrant arabinoxylan. However, their characterization and utilization of these enzymes in biotechnological applications have been limited. Here, we characterize a novel bifunctional enzyme, rAbf43A, cloned from a bacterial consortium that exhibits AXH and endo-xylanase activities. Hydrolytic pattern analyses revealed that the AXH activity belongs to AXHd3 because it attacked only the C(O)-3-linked arabinofuranosyl residues of double-substituted xylopyranosyl units of arabinoxylan and arabinoxylan-derived oligosaccharides, which are usually resistant to hydrolysis. The enzyme rAbf43A also liberated a series of xylo-oligosaccharides (XOSs) from beechwood xylan, xylohexaose and xylopentaose, indicating that rAbf43A exhibited endo-xylanase activity. Homology modelling based on AlphaFold2 and site-directed mutagenesis identified three non-catalytic residues (H161, A270 and L505) located in the substrate-binding pocket essential for its dual-functionality, while the mutation of A117 located in the -1 subsite to the proline residue only affected its endo-xylanase activity. Additionally, rAbf43A showed significant synergistic action with the bifunctional xylanase/feruloyl esterase rXyn10A/Fae1A from the same bacterial consortium on insoluble wheat arabinoxylan and de-starched wheat bran degradation. When rXyn10A/Fae1A was added to the rAbf43A pre-hydrolyzed reactions, the amount of released reducing sugars, xylose and ferulic acid increased by 9.43% and 25.16%, 189.37% and 93.54%, 31.39% and 32.30%, respectively, in comparison with the sum of hydrolysis products released by each enzyme alone. The unique characteristics of rAbf43A position it as a promising candidate not only for designing high-performance enzyme cocktails but also for investigating the structure-function relationship of GH43 multifunctional enzymes.

Abstract
Feruloyl esterase (EC3.1.1.73; FAE) can degrade biomass to release ferulic acid (FA), which has a high application in bioprocessing, food, pharmaceutical, paper, feed, and other industrial fields. A strain of Klebsiella oxytoca Z28 with ferulic esterase activity was screened from Daqu. In addition, the FAE gene was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The enzyme consists of 340 amino acids with a molecular mass of 37.7 kDa. The FAE enzyme activity was 463 U/L when the substrate was ethyl 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamate and the optimum temperature and pH were 50 °C and 8.0, respectively. The enzyme had good stability at temperatures of 25-40 °C and a pH of 8.0. Ba2+, Cu2+, Mn2+, and Ca2+ had a strong inhibitory effect on the enzyme activity, and Na+ had a promotive effect on the enzyme activity. The de-starching wheat bran was degraded by KoFAE, and the FA release was up to 227.15 µg/g. This indicated that the heterologous expression of KoFAE from Klebsiella oxytoca Z28 in E. coli had a certain potential of biodegradation, which can be applied to the degradation of agricultural waste to obtain high value-added FA products.

A feruloyl esterase/cellulase integrated biological system for high-efficiency and toxic-chemical free isolation of tobacco based cellulose nanofibers. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 313:120885.

Abstract
Tobacco based cellulose nanofiber (TCNF) is a novel nanocellulose that has recently been used to replace undesirable wood pulp fibers in the preparation of reconstructed tobacco sheets (RTS). However, given the strict requirements for controlling toxic chemical content in tobacco products, there is a global interest in developing a green, efficient, and toxic-chemical free approach to isolate TCNF from tobacco stem as a bioresource. In this study, we propose a creative and environmentally friendly method to efficiently and safely isolate TCNF from tobacco stem pulp, which involves integrated biological pretreatment followed by a facile mechanical defibrillation process. Feruloyl esterase is used to pretreat the stem pulp by disrupting the ether and ester bonds between lignin and polysaccharide carbohydrates within the fiber wall, which effectively facilitates cellulase hydrolysis and swelling of the stem pulp fiber, as well as the following mechanical shearing treatment for TCNF isolation. The results demonstrate that TCNF obtained by the comprehensive feruloyl esterase/cellulase/mechanical process exhibit uniform and well-dispersed nanofiber morphology, higher crystallinity, and stronger mechanical properties than those of the control. The addition of 0.5 % TCNF can replace wood pulp by 18 wt% ~ 25 wt% in the production of RTS samples while maintaining their reasonable strength properties.

Abstract
Vanilla is the most commonly used natural flavoring agent in industries like food, flavoring, medicine, and fragrance. Vanillin can be obtained naturally, chemically, or through a biotechnological process. However, the yield from vanilla pods is low and does not meet market demand, and the use of vanillin produced by chemical synthesis is restricted in the food and pharmaceutical industries. As a result, the biotechnological process is the most efficient and cost-effective method for producing vanillin with consumer-demanding properties while also supporting industrial applications. Toxin-free biovanillin production, based on renewable sources such as industrial wastes or by-products, is a promising approach. In addition, only natural-labeled vanillin is approved for use in the food industry. Accordingly, this review focuses on biovanillin production from lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which is generally recognized as safe (GRAS), and the cost-cutting efforts that are utilized to improve the efficiency of biotransformation of inexpensive and readily available sources. LABs can utilize agro-wastes rich in ferulic acid to produce ferulic acid, which is then employed in vanillin production via fermentation, and various efforts have been applied to enhance the vanillin titer. However, different designs, such as response surface methods, using immobilized cells or pure enzymes for the spontaneous release of vanillin, are strongly advised.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is becoming an increasingly serious health problem. This study aimed to investigate the effect of a newly isolated Lactobacillus species that produces feruloyl esterase (FAEb) on dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced UC in mice. In this study, FAEb supplementation slowed body weight loss and mitigated colon length shortening, the severity of fecal occult blood, and increases in the disease activity index (DAI) in UC model mice. FAEb supplementation was also shown to reduce the expression of proinflammatory factors, increase the antioxidant capacity, improve the production of beneficial short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), upregulate the expression of tight junction proteins, reduce the histopathological scores, and reduce mucous barrier damage in the gut. Furthermore, FAEb supplementation was shown to inhibit inflammatory NF-κB signaling pathway activity, increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria, and regulate the balance of microbiota in the gut. These results suggest that FAEb may serve as a potential probiotic to prevent and treat UC.

Abstract
Feruloyl esterase (FAE)-producing micro-organisms to obtain ferulic acid (FA) from natural substrates have good industrial prospects, and the synergistic effect of multiple bacteria can better improve the yield of FA. In this study, on the premise of the synergistic effect of FAE, hemicellulose, and cellulase, the key strain Klebsiella oxytoca Z28 with FAE was combined with CMCase and Xylanase-producing strains to produce FA. The combination of strains with higher FA production are Klebsiella oxytoca Z28, Klebsiella pneumoniae JZE, Bacillus velezensis G1, and their FA production can reach 109.67 μg/g, which is 15% higher than that of single bacteria. To explore the effects of temperature, Ph, inoculum amount, distillers grains concentration and fermentation time on the FAE activity of the combination of strains in the fermentation process, and determined that temperature, Ph, and fermentation time were the main influencing factors and optimized through orthogonal design. The optimized fermentation conditions are 34 °C, Ph 8.0, and fermentation days for 6 days, the FAE activity can reach 270.78 U/L, and the FA yield of the combined strain is 324.50 μg/g, which is 200% higher than that of single-strain fermentation.

Abstract
A novel enzyme Bi76 comprising GH10, E_set_Esterase_N, and CE1 modules was identified, with the highest homology (62.9%) with a bifunctional endoxylanase/feruloyl esterase among characterized enzymes. Interestingly, Bi76 hydrolyzed glucan substrates besides xylans and feruloylated substrates, suggesting that it is the first characterized trifunctional endoxylanase/endoglucanase/feruloyl esterase. Analyses of truncation variants revealed that GH10 and E_set_Esterase_N + CE1 modules encoded endoxylanase/endoglucanase and feruloyl esterase activities, respectively. Synergism analyses indicated that endoxylanase, α-l-arabinofuranosidase, and feruloyl esterase acted cooperatively in releasing ferulic acid (FA) and xylooligosaccharides from feruloylated arabinoxylan. The interdomain synergism of Bi76 overmatched the intermolecular synergism of TM1 and TM2. Importantly, Bi76 exhibited good capacity in producing FA, releasing 5.20, 4.38, 2.12, 1.35, 0.46, and 0.19 mg/g from corn bran, corn cob, wheat bran, corn stover, rice husk, and rice bran, respectively. This study expands the trifunctional endoxylanase/endoglucanase/feruloyl esterase repertoire and demonstrates the great potential of Bi76 in agricultural residue utilization.

BMC Biotechnol 2022; 22:6.

Abstract
Background One-step fermentation is a cheap way to produce xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS), where production of xylanases and XOS is integrated into a single process. In spite of cost advantage, one-step fermentation is still short in yield so far due to the limited exploration. To cope with this issue, production of XOS from wheat bran by recombinant Escherichia coli through one-step fermentation was investigated in this study. Results An endo-β-1,4-xylanase gene belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 11 of Bacillus agaradhaerens was employed to construct recombinant E. coli. This xylanase showed maximal activity at 60 °C and pH 8.0–8.5. Its activity retained more than 60% after incubation at 70 °C for 4 h, showing a good stability. The recombinant E. coli BL21(DE3) could secreted xylanases that directly hydrolyzed de-starched wheat bran to XOS in fermentation medium. The XOS generated from hydrolysis consisted of xylose, xylobiose and xylotriose accounting for 23.1%, 37.3% and 39.6%, respectively. Wheat bran concentration was found to be the most crucial factor affecting XOS production. The XOS concentration reached 5.3 mg/mL at 10% loading of wheat bran, which is higher than those of previous researches. Nitrogen source type could also affect production of XOS by changing extracellular xylanase activity, and glycine was found to be the best one for fermentation. Optimal fermentation conditions were finally studied using response surface optimization. The maximal concentration emerged at 44.3 °C, pH 7.98, which is affected by characteristics of the xylanase as well as growth conditions of E. coli. Conclusions This work indicates that the integrated fermentation using recombinant E. coli is highly competitive in cost and final concentration for producing XOS. Results can also provide theoretical basis for large-scale production and contribute to the wide adoption of XOS.

Abstract
We prospected a novel arylesterase LggEst from the probiotics Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG by genome mining strategy, and characterized the enzymatic properties in detail. Biochemical characterization revealed that arylesterase LggEst presented high activity at a wide range of temperatures from 25 to 65 °C with maximum activity at 50 °C. LggEst maintained high activity in the pH range from 5.5 to 7.5 with optimum pH of 6.5. LggEst might efficiently hydrolyze a series of aryl substrates p-nitrophenyl esters with different acyl chain lengths. LggEst displayed the Vmax from 2.8 to 77.3 μmol min-1 mg-1 protein and the k cat from 1.8 to 48.8 s-1 with the highest catalytic activity on pNPC6. The K M of LggEst on different substrates varied significantly from 4.9 μM to 5.6 mM with the highest affinity on pNPC10. LggEst exhibited the preference for medium- and long-chain p-nitrophenyl esters. LggEst showed remarkable thermostability at 45 °C. LggEst could be tolerant of several organic solvents at the concentration of 10% and DMSO and methanol at the concentration of 20%. Catalytic activity of LggEst was improved by 12% in the presence of 20% ethylene glycol. LggEst was resistant to high concentrations of sodium citrate and sodium chloride. Notably, enzymatic activity of LggEst was significantly enhanced in the presence of 0.1% sodium deoxycholate at high temperatures.

Abstract
The present study focused on isolating an efficient enzyme production microorganism for ferulic acid (FA) production from wheat bran. A wild-type cellulase-, xylanase-, and feruloyl esterase-producing strain was isolated and identified as Penicillium oxalicum M1816. The genome was sequenced and assembled into 30.5 Mb containing 8301 predicted protein-coding genes. In total, 553 genes were associated with carbohydrate metabolism. Genomic CAZymes analysis indicated that P. oxalicum M1816, comprising 39 cellulolytic enzymes and 111 hemicellulases (including 5 feruloyl esterase genes), may play a vital role in wheat bran degradation and FA production. The crude enzyme of strain M1816 could release 1.85 ± 0.08 mg·g-1 FA from de-starched wheat bran (DSWB) at 12 h, which was significantly higher than other commercial enzymes. Meanwhile, when the strain M1816 was cultured in medium supplemented with DSWB, up to 92.89% of the total alkali-extractable FA was released. The process parameters of solid-state fermentation were optimized to enhance enzyme production. The optimized wheat bran Qu of P. oxalicum M1816 was applied to huangjiu fermentation, and the FA content was increased 12.4-fold compared to the control group. These results suggest that P. oxalicum M1816 is a good candidate for the development of fermented foods bio-fortified with FA.

Abstract
Background Feruloyl esterase is a multifunctional esterase with potential industrial applications. In the present study, we found the Lactobacillus amylovorus feruloyl esterase (FaeLam) could be secreted by L. plantarum and Escherichia coli. However, no signal peptide was detected in this protein as predicted by SignalP-5.0. Therefore, experiments were carried out to propose an explanation for the extracellular release of FaeLam. Results Here, we identified that the FaeLam could be secreted to the culture medium of L. plantarum CGMCC6888 and E. coli DH5α, respectively. To exclude the possibility that FaeLam secretion was caused by its hydrolytic activity on the cell membrane, the inactive FaeLamS106A was constructed and it could still be secreted out of L. plantarum and E. coli cells. Furthermore, the truncated version of the FaeLam without the N-terminal residues was constructed and demonstrated the importance of the 20 amino acids of N-terminus (N20) on FaeLam secretion. In addition, fusion of heterologous proteins with N20 or FaeLam could carry the target protein out of the cells. These results indicated the N-terminus of FaeLam played the key role in the export process. Conclusions We proved the N-terminus of L. amylovorus FaeLam plays an important role in its secretion by L. plantarum and E. coli. To our best knowledge, this is the first reported protein which can be secreted out of the cells of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Furthermore, the results of this study may provide a new method for protein secretion in L. plantarum and E. coli through fusion the target protein to N20 of FaeLam.

Abstract
Bioprocess, a biocatalysis-based technology, is becoming popular in many research fields and widely applied in industrial manufacturing. However, low bioconversion, low productivity, and high costs during industrial processes are usually the limitation in bioprocess. Therefore, many biocatalyst strategies have been developed to meet these challenges in recent years. In this review, we firstly discuss protein engineering strategies, which are emerged for improving the biocatalysis activity of biocatalysts. Then, we summarize metabolic engineering strategies that are promoting the development of microbial cell factories. Next, we illustrate the necessity of using the combining strategy of protein engineering and metabolic engineering for efficient biocatalysts. Lastly, future perspectives about the development and application of novel biocatalyst strategies are discussed. This review provides theoretical guidance for the development of efficient, sustainable, and economical bioprocesses mediated by novel biocatalysts.

Abstract
Producing ferulic acid (FA) from the natural substrate with feruloyl esterase is promising in industries, screening and engineering new enzymes with high efficiency to increase the FA yield is of great concern. Here, the feruloyl esterase of Lactobacillus acidophilus (FAELac) was heterologous expressed and the FAELac with different oligomerization states was separated. Interestingly, the activity of dimer was 37-fold higher than high-polymer. To further enhance the efficiency of FAELac, eight mutants were generated based on the simulated structure, of which Q198A, Q134T enhanced the catalytic efficiency by 5.4- and 4.3-fold in comparison with the wild type. Moreover, higher yields of FA (2.21, 6.60, and 1.67 mg/g substrate, respectively) were released by the mutants from de-starched wheat bran, insoluble wheat arabinoxylan, and steam-exploded corn stover. These results indicated that improving the purification process, engineering new FAELac and substrates bias studies hold great potential for increasing FA production yield.

Abstract
Feruloyl esterase is an indispensable biocatalyst in food processing, pesticide and pharmaceutical industries, catalyzing the cleavage of the ester bond cross-linked between the polysaccharide side chain of hemicellulose and ferulic acid in plant cell walls. LP_0796 from Lactobacillus plantarum was identified as a feruloyl esterase that may have potential applications in the food industry, but the lack of the substrate recognition and catalytic mechanisms limits its application. Here, LP_0796 showed the highest activity towards methyl caffeate at pH 6.6 and 40 °C. The crystal structure of LP_0796 was determined at 2.5 Å resolution and featured a catalytic triad Asp195-containing loop facing the opposite direction, thus forming a wider substrate binding pocket. Molecular docking simulation and site-directed mutagenesis studies further demonstrated that in addition to the catalytic triad (Ser94, Asp195, His225), Arg125 and Val128 played essential roles in the function of the active site. Our data also showed that Asp mutation of Ala23 and Ile198 increased the catalytic efficiency to 4- and 5-fold, respectively. Collectively, this work provided a better understanding of the substrate recognition and catalytic mechanisms of LP_0796 and may facilitate the future protein design of this important feruloyl esterase.

Abstract
The human gut microbiota regulates nutritional metabolism, especially by encoding specific ferulic acid esterases (FAEs) to release functional ferulic acid (FA) from dietary fiber. In our previous study, we observed seven upregulated FAE genes during in vitro fecal slurry fermentation using wheat bran. Here, a 29 kDa FAE (AsFAE) from Alistipes shahii of Bacteroides was characterized and identified as the type-A FAE. The X-ray structure of AsFAE has been determined, revealing a unique α-helical domain comprising five α-helices, which was first characterized in FAEs from the gut microbiota. Further molecular docking analysis and biochemical studies revealed that Tyr100, Thr122, Tyr219, and Ile220 are essential for substrate binding and catalytic efficiency. Additionally, Glu129 and Lys130 in the cap domain shaped the substrate-binding pocket and affected the substrate preference. This is the first report on A. shahii FAE, providing a theoretical basis for the dietary metabolism in the human gut.

Abstract
Feruloyl esterase (FAE; EC 3.1.1.73) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamoyl group in an esterified sugar to assist in waste biomass degradation or to release ferulic acid (FA). An FAE-producing strain was isolated from humus soil samples and identified as Bacillus pumilus SK52.001. The BpFAE gene from B. pumilus SK52.001 was speculated and heterogeneously expressed in Bacillus subtilis WB800 for the first time. The enzyme exists as a monomer with 303 amino acids and a molecular mass of 33.6 kDa. Its specific activity was 377.9 ± 10.3 U/ (mg protein), using methyl ferulate as a substrate. It displays an optimal alkaline pH of 9.0, an optimal temperature of 50 °C, and half-lives of 1434, 327, 235, and 68 min at 50, 55, 60, and 65 °C, respectively. Moreover, the purified BpFAE released 4.98% FA of the alkali-acidic extractable FA from de-starched wheat bran (DSWB). When the DSWB was enzymatically degraded by the synergistic effect of the BpFAE and commercial xylanase, the FA amount reached 49.47%. It suggested that the alkaline BpFAE from B. pumilus SK52.001, which was heterologously expressed in B. subtilis WB800, possesses great potential for biomass degradation and achieving high-added value FA production from food by-products.

Lignocellulosic Waste Pretreatment Solely via Biocatalysis as a Partial Simultaneous Lignino-Holocellulolysis Process. Catalysts 2021.

Abstract
Human endeavors generate a significant quantity of bio-waste, even lignocellulosic waste, due to rapid industrialization and urbanization, and can cause pollution to aquatic ecosystems, and contribute to detrimental animal and human health because of the toxicity of consequent hydrolysis products. This paper contributes to a new understanding of the lignocellulosic waste bio-pretreatment process from a literature review, which can provide better biorefinery operational outcomes. The simultaneous partial biological lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose lysis, i.e., simultaneous semi-lignino-holocellulolysis, is aimed at suggesting that when ligninolysis ensues, holocellulolysis is simultaneously performed for milled lignocellulosic waste instead of having a sequential process of initial ligninolysis and subsequent holocellulolysis as is currently the norm. It is presumed that such a process can be solely performed by digestive enzyme cocktails from the monkey cups of species such as Nepenthes, white and brown rot fungi, and some plant exudates. From the literature review, it was evident that the pretreatment of milled lignocellulosic waste is largely incomplete, and ligninolysis including holocellulolysis ensues simultaneously when the waste is milled. It is further proposed that lignocellulosic waste pretreatment can be facilitated using an environmentally friendly approach solely using biological means. For such a process to be understood and applied on an industrial scale, an interdisciplinary approach using process engineering and microbiology techniques is required.

Abstract
In Lactobacillus plantarum the metabolism of hydroxybenzoic and hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives follows a similar two-step pathway, an esterase action followed by a decarboxylation. The L. plantarum esterase genes involved in these reactions have been cloned into pNZ8048 or pT1NX plasmids and transformed into technologically relevant lactic acid bacteria. None of the strains assayed can hydrolyse methyl gallate, a hydroxybenzoic ester. The presence of the L. plantarum tannase encoding genes (tanALp or tanBLp) on these bacteria conferred their detectable esterase (tannase) activity. Similarly, on hydroxycinnamic compounds, esterase activity for the hydrolysis of ferulic acid was acquired by lactic acid bacteria when L. plantarum esterase (JDM1_1092) was present. This study showed that the heterologous expression of L. plantarum esterase genes involved in the metabolism of phenolic acids allowed the production of healthy compounds which increase the bioavailability of these dietary compounds in food relevant lactic acid bacteria.

Abstract
Dicaffeoylquinic acids (DiCQAs), the main components of kudingcha made from the leaves of Ilex kudingcha, could be transformed by gut microbiota. However, the information about the related microorganisms and enzymes involved in the biotransformation of DiCQAs in the human gut is limited. Therefore, a strain of bacteria that could hydrolyze DiCQAs, belonging to Lactobacillus fermentum named L. fermentum LF-12, was isolated from human feces in the present study. Furthermore, an esterase for the hydrolysis of DiCQAs was purified from L. fermentum LF-12 and heterogeneously expressed in Escherichia coli. The esterase could be induced to exert superior hydrolytic activity in the presence of lactose as the carbon source. The molecular weight of the purified esterase was determined to be 31.9 kDa, and the isoelectric point, optimal pH and temperature for the esterase were 4.71, 6.5 and 45 °C, respectively. The enzyme activity was improved by Mg2+ and Ca2+, and reduced by Co2+, Cu2+, EDTA and some kinds of organic solvents. The present results provide new insights into the metabolism of DiCQAs by the human gut.

Abstract
Construction of recombinant Escherichia coli strains carrying feruloyl esterase genes for secretory expression offers an attractive way to facilitate enzyme purification and one-step production of ferulic acid from agricultural waste. A total of 10 feruloyl esterases derived from nine Lactobacillus species were expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) to investigate their secretion and ferulic acid production. Extracellular activity determination showed all these Lactobacillus feruloyl esterases could be secreted out of E. coli cells. However, protein analysis indicated that they could be classified as three types. The first type presented a low secretion level, including feruloyl esterases derived from Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus johnsonii. The second type showed a high secretion level, including feruloyl esterases derived from Lactobacillus amylovorus, Lactobacillus crispatus, Lactobacillus gasseri, and Lactobacillus helveticus. The third type also behaved a high secretion level but easy degradation, including feruloyl esterases derived from Lactobacillus farciminis, Lactobacillus fermentum, and Lactobacillus reuteri. Moreover, these recombinant E. coli strains could directly release ferulic acid from agricultural waste. The highest yield was 140 μg on the basis of 0.1 g de-starched wheat bran by using E. coli expressed L. amylovorus feruloyl esterase. These results provided a solid basis for the production of feruloyl esterase and ferulic acid.

Abstract
Biotechnological production of phenolic acids is attracting increased interest due to their superior antioxidant activity, as well as other antimicrobial, dietary, and health benefits. As secondary metabolites, primarily found in plants and fungi, they are effective free radical scavengers due to the phenolic group available in their structure. Therefore, phenolic acids are widely utilised by pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and chemical industries. A demand for phenolic acids is mostly satisfied by utilising chemically synthesised compounds, with only a low quantity obtained from natural sources. As an alternative to chemical synthesis, environmentally friendly bio-based technologies are necessary for development in large-scale production. One of the most promising sustainable technologies is the utilisation of microbial cell factories for biosynthesis of phenolic acids. In this paper, we perform a systematic comparison of the best known natural sources of phenolic acids. The advances and prospects in the development of microbial cell factories for biosynthesis of these bioactive compounds are discussed in more detail. A special consideration is given to the modern production methods and analytics of phenolic acids.

Abstract
Statistical experimental designs were used to optimize conditions for recombinant Burkholderia pyrrocinia feruloyl esterase (BpFae) production in bacteria under lactose induction. After optimization by single factor design, Plackett-Burman design, steepest ascent design and the response surface method, the optimal conditions for BpFae production were: 6 g/L lactose, pH 5.5, pre-induced period 5 h, 23 °C, shaker rotational speed of 240 rpm, medium volume of 50 mL/250 mL, inoculum size 0.2% (v/v), and a post-induced period of 32 h in a Luria-Bertani culture. The produced BpFae activity was 7.43 U/mL, which is 2.92 times higher than that obtained under optimal conditions using IPTG as the inducer. BpFae activity was 4.82 U/mL in a 5 L fermenter under the abovementioned optimal conditions. BpFae produced a small amount of ethyl acetate but had no effect on the synthesis of other important esters in Baijiu. The results underpin further investigations into BpFae characterization and potential applications.

Efficient ferulic acid and xylo-oligosaccharides production by a novel multi-modular bifunctional xylanase/feruloyl esterase using agricultural residues as substrates. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2020; 297:122487.

Abstract
Liberating high value-added compounds ferulic acid (FA) and xylo-oligosaccharides (XOSs) from agricultural residues is a promising strategy for the utilization of lignocellulose. In this study, a bifunctional xylanase/feruloyl esterase from bacterial consortium EMSD5 was heterogeneously expressed in Escherichia coli. Depending on the inter-domain synergism of the recombinant enzyme rXyn10A/Fae1A, high yields of FA (2.78, 1.82, 1.15 and 7.31 mg/g substrate, respectively) were obtained from 20 mg in-soluble wheat arabinoxylan, de-starched wheat bran, ultrafine-grinding corn stover and steam-exploded corncob. Meanwhile, 3.210, 1.235, 1.215 and 0.823 mg xylose/XOSs were also released. For cost-saving enzyme production, we firstly constructed a recombinant E. coli, which could secrete the bifunctional xylanase/feruloyl esterase out of cells. When the recombinant E. coli was cultured in medium containing 200 mg de-starched wheat bran, 474 μg FA and 18.2 mg xylose/XOSs were also detected. Hence, rXyn10A/Fae1A and the recombinant strain showed great applied potential for FA and XOSs production.
