Abstract
Hydroxytyrosol, a naturally occurring compound with antioxidant and antiviral activity, is widely applied in the cosmetic, food, and nutraceutical industries. The development of a biocatalytic approach for producing hydroxytyrosol from simple and readily accessible substrates remains a challenge. Here, we designed and implemented an effective biocatalytic cascade to obtain hydroxytyrosol from 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and l-threonine via a four-step enzymatic cascade composed of seven enzymes. To prevent cross-reactions and protein expression burden caused by multiple enzymes expressed in a single cell, the designed enzymatic cascade was divided into two modules and catalyzed in a stepwise manner. The first module (FM) assisted the assembly of 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and l-threonine into (2S,3R)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3-hydroxypropanoic acid, and the second module (SM) entailed converting (2S,3R)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3-hydroxypropanoic acid into hydroxytyrosol. Each module was cloned into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) and engineered in parallel by fine-tuning enzyme expression, resulting in two engineered whole-cell catalyst modules, BL21(FM01) and BL21(SM13), capable of converting 30 mM 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde to 28.7 mM hydroxytyrosol with a high space-time yield (0.88 g/L/h). To summarize, the current study proposes a simple and effective approach for biosynthesizing hydroxytyrosol from low-cost substrates and thus has great potential for industrial applications.

Abstract
Leucine dehydrogenase (LeuDH, EC 1.4.1.9) can reversibly catalyze the oxidative deamination of l-leucine and some other specific α-amino acids to form the corresponding α-ketoacids. This reaction has great significance in the field of food additives and the pharmaceutical industry. The LeuDH from Exiguobacterium sibiricum (EsLeuDH) has high catalytic efficiency but limited thermal stability, hindering its widespread industrial application. In this study, a mutant N5F/I12L/A352Y of EsLeuDH (referred to as M2) was developed with enhanced thermal stability and catalytic activity through rational modification. The M2 mutant exhibits a half-life at 60 °C (t1/2(60 °C)) of 975.7 min and a specific activity of 69.6 U mg-1, which is 5.4 and 2.1 times higher than those of EsLeuDH, respectively. This research may facilitate the utilization of EsLeuDH at elevated temperatures, enhancing its potential for industrial applications. The findings offer a practical and efficient approach for optimizing LeuDH and other industrial enzymes.

Abstract
Norepinephrine, a kind of β-adrenergic receptor agonist, is commonly used for treating shocks and hypotension caused by a variety of symptoms. The development of a straightforward, efficient and environmentally friendly biocatalytic route for manufacturing norepinephrine remains a challenge. Here, we designed and realized an artificial biocatalytic cascade to access norepinephrine starting from 3, 4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and L-threonine mediated by a tailored-made L-threonine transaldolase PsLTTA-Mu1 and a newly screened tyrosine decarboxylase ErTDC. To overcome the imbalance of multi-enzymes in a single cell, engineering of PsLTTA for improved activity and fine-tuning expression mode of multi-enzymes in single E.coli cells were combined, leading to a robust whole cell biocatalyst ES07 that could produce 100 mM norepinephrine with 99% conversion, delivering a highest time-space yield (3.38 g/L/h) ever reported. To summarized, the current study proposed an effective biocatalytic approach for the synthesis of norepinephrine from low-cost substrates, paving the way for industrial applications of enzymatic norepinephrine production.

Abstract
A novel gene encoding aspartate dehydrogenase (ASPDH) has been discovered in Achromobacter denitrificans. The product of this gene has a strict dependence on NADH and demonstrated significant reductive activity towards not only oxaloacetate (OAA) but also 2-ketobutyric acid. Further enzymatic characterization revealed the kinetic parameters of ASPDH for OAA and 2-ketobutyric acid were as follows: Km values of 4.25 mM and 0.89 mM, Vmax values of 10.67 U mg-1 and 2.10 U mg-1, and Kcat values of 3.70 s-1 and 0.72 s-1, respectively. The enzyme also showed a dependency on metal ions, with EDTA and Cu2+ exerting strong inhibitory effects, while Ca2+ and Fe2+ exhibited pronounced enhancing effects. By utilizing a whole-cell biocatalyst system comprising glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) and ASPDH as a coupled system to replenish cofactors by oxidizing glucose, enabling the effective conversion of 2-ketobutyric acid to L-2-aminobutyric acid (L-2-ABA) with 97.2% yield.

Abstract
L-serine is a high-value amino acid widely used in the food, medicine, and cosmetic industries. However, the low yield of L-serine has limited its industrial production. In this study, a cellular factory for efficient synthesis of L-serine was obtained by engineering the serine hydroxymethyltransferases (SHMT). Firstly, after screening the SHMT from Alcanivorax dieselolei by genome mining, a mutant AdSHMTE266M with high thermal stability was identified through rational design. Subsequently, an iterative saturating mutant library was constructed by using coevolutionary analysis, and a mutant AdSHMTE160L/E193Q with enzyme activity 1.35 times higher than AdSHMT was identified. Additionally, the target protein AdSHMTE160L/E193Q/E266M was efficiently overexpressed by improving its mRNA stability. Finally, combining the substrate addition strategy and system optimization, the optimized strain BL21/pET28a-AdSHMTE160L/E193Q/E266M-5'UTR-REP3S16 produced 106.06 g/L L-serine, which is the highest production to date. This study provides new ideas and insights for the engineering design of SHMT and the industrial production of L-serine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND L-Leucine is a high-value amino acid with promising applications in the medicine and feed industries. However, the complex metabolic network and intracellular redox imbalance in fermentative microbes limit their efficient biosynthesis of L-leucine. RESULTS In this study, we applied rational metabolic engineering and a dynamic regulation strategy to construct a plasmid-free, non-auxotrophic Escherichia coli strain that overproduces L-leucine. First, the L-leucine biosynthesis pathway was strengthened through multi-step rational metabolic engineering. Then, a cooperative cofactor utilization strategy was designed to ensure redox balance for L-leucine production. Finally, to further improve the L-leucine yield, a toggle switch for dynamically controlling sucAB expression was applied to accurately regulate the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the carbon flux toward L-leucine biosynthesis. Strain LEU27 produced up to 55 g/L of L-leucine, with a yield of 0.23 g/g glucose. CONCLUSIONS The combination of strategies can be applied to the development of microbial platforms that produce L-leucine and its derivatives.

Abstract
ATP, an important cofactor, is involved in many biocatalytic reactions that require energy. Polyphosphate kinases (PPK) can provide energy for ATP-consuming reactions due to their cheap and readily available substrate polyphosphate. We determined the catalytic properties of PPK from different sources and found that PPK from Cytophaga hutchinsonii (ChPPK) had the best catalytic activity for the substrates ADP and polyP6. An extracellular-intracellular dual system was constructed to high-throughput screen for better catalytic activity of ChPPK mutants. Finally, the specific activity of ChPPKD82N-K103E mutant was increased by 4.3 times. Therefore, we focused on the production of L-theanine catalyzed by GMAS as a model of ATP regeneration. Supplying 150 mM ATP, GMAS enzyme could produce 16.8 ± 1.3 g/L L-theanine from 100 mM glutamate. When 5 mM ATP and 5 U/mL ChPPKD82N-K103E were added, the yield of L-theanine was 16.6 ± 0.79 g/L with the conversion rate of 95.6 ± 4.5% at 4 h. Subsequently, this system was scaled up to 200 mM and 400 mM glutamate, resulting in the yields of L-theanine for 32.3 ± 1.6 g/L and 62.7 ± 1.1 g/L, with the conversion rate of 92.8 ± 4.6% and 90.1 ± 1.6%, respectively. In addition, we also constructed an efficient ATP regeneration system from glutamate to glutamine, and 13.8 ± 0.2 g/L glutamine was obtained with the conversion rate of 94.4 ± 1.4% in 4 h after adding 6 U/ mL GS enzyme and 5 U/ mL ChPPKD82N-K103E, which further laid the foundation from glutamine to L-theanine catalyzed by GGT enzyme. This proved that giving the reaction an efficient ATP supply driven by the mutant enzyme enhanced the conversion rate of substrate to product and maximized the substrate value. This is a positively combination of high yield, high conversion rate and high economic value of enzyme catalysis. The mutant enzyme will further power the ATP-consuming biocatalytic reaction platform sustainably.

Abstract
L-2-aminobutyric acid (L-2-ABA) is a chiral precursor for the synthesis of anti-epileptic drug levetiracetam and anti-tuberculosis drug ethambutol. Asymmetric synthesis of L-2-ABA by leucine dehydrogenases has been widely developed. However, the limitations of natural enzymes, such as poor stability, low catalytic efficiency, and inhibition of high-concentration substrates, limit large-scale applications. Herein, by directed screening of a metagenomic library from unnatural amino acid-enriched environments, a robust leucine dehydrogenase, TvLeuDH, was identified, which exhibited high substrate tolerance and excellent enzymatic activity towards 2-oxobutyric acid. In addition, TvLeuDH has strong affinity for NADH. Subsequently, a three-enzyme co-expression system containing L-threonine deaminase, TvLeuDH, and glucose dehydrogenase was established. By optimizing reaction conditions, 1.5 M L-threonine could be converted to L-2-ABA with a 99% molar conversion rate and a space-time yield of 51.5 g·L-1 ·h-1 . In this process, no external coenzyme was added. The robustness of TvLeuDH allowed the reaction to be performed without the addition of extra salt as the buffer, demonstrating the simplest reaction system currently reported. These unique properties for the efficient and environmentally friendly production of chiral amino acids make TvLeuDH a particularly promising candidate for industrial applications, which reveals the great potential of directed metagenomics for industrial biotechnology.

Abstract
2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-sn-glycerol (2-αGG) is a high value product with wide applications. Here, an efficient, safe and sustainable bioprocesses for 2-αGG production was designed. A novel sucrose phosphorylase (SPase) was firstly identified from Leuconostoc mesenteroides ATCC 8293. Subsequently, SPase mutations were processed with computer-aided engineering, of which the activity of SPaseK138C was 160% higher than that of the wild-type. Structural analysis revealed that K138C was a key functional residue moderating substrate binding pocket and thus influences catalytic activity. Furthermore, Corynebacterium glutamicum was employed to construct microbial cell factories along with ribosome binding site (RBS) fine-tuning and a two-stage substrate feeding control strategy. The maximum production of 2-αGG by these combined strategies reached 351.8 g·L-1 with 98% conversion rate from 1.4 M sucrose and 3.5 M glycerol in a 5-L bioreactor. This was one of the best performance reported in single-cell biosynthesis of 2-αGG, which paved effective ways for industrial-scale preparation of 2-αGG.

[PMID: 36921551 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2023.110225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023]
Abstract
L-Phosphinothricin (L-PPT) is the effective constituent in racemic PPT (a high-efficiency and broad-spectrum herbicide), and the exploitation of green and sustainable synthesis route for L-PPT has always been the focus in pesticide industry. In recent years, "one-pot, two-step" enzyme-mediated cascade strategy is a mainstream pathway to obtain L-PPT. Herein, RgDAAO and BsLeuDH were applied to expand "one-pot, two-step" process. Notably, a NADH-dependent leucine dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsLeuDH) was firstly characterized and attempted to generate L-PPT, achieving an excellent enantioselectivity (99.9% ee). Meanwhile, a formate dehydrogenase from Pichia pastoris (PpFDH) was utilized to implement NADH cofactor regeneration and only CO2 was by-product. Sufficient amount of the corresponding keto acid precursor PPO was obtained by oxidation of D-PPT relying on a D-amino acid oxidase from Rhodotorula gracilis (RgDAAO) with content conversion (46.1%). L-PPT was ultimately prepared from racemized PPT via oxidative deamination catalyzed by RgDAAO and reductive amination catalyzed by BsLeuDH, achieving 80.3% overall yield and > 99.9% ee value.

Abstract
Inositol is an essential intermediate in cosmetics, food, medicine and other industries. However, developing an efficient biotransformation system for large-scale production of inositol remains challenging. Herein, a tri-enzymatic cascade route with three novel enzymes including polyphosphate glucokinase (PPGK) from Thermobifida fusca, inositol 3-phosphate synthase (IPS) from Archaeoglobus profundus DSM 5631 and inositol monophosphatase (IMP) from Thermotoga petrophila RKU-1 was designed and reconstructed for the production of inositol from glucose. The problem of poor cooperativity of the cascade reactions was addressed by ribosome binding site (RBS) optimization of PPGK and replication of IPS. Under the optimum biotransformation conditions, the engineered whole-cell immobilized with colloidal chitin transformed 120 g/L glucose to 110.8 g/L inositol with 92.3% conversion in four cycles of reuse, representing the highest titer of inositol to date. Furthermore, this is the first study for inositol production using a three-enzyme coordinated immobilized single-cell.

Abstract
(R)-(+)-perillyl alcohol is a much valued supplemental compound with a wide range of agricultural and pharmacological characteristics. The aim of this study was to improve (R)-(+)-perillyl alcohol production using a whole-cell catalytic formula. In this study, we employed plasmids with varying copy numbers to identify an appropriate strain, strain 03. We demonstrated that low levels of alKL provided maximal biocatalyst stability. Upon determination of the optimal conditions, the (R)-(+)-perillyl alcohol yield reached 130 mg/L. For cofactor regeneration, we constructed strain 10, expressing FDH from Candida boidinii, and achieved (R)-(+)-perillyl alcohol production of 230 mg/L. As a result, 1.23 g/L (R)-(+)-perillyl alcohol was transformed in a 5 L fermenter. Our proposed method facilitates an alternative approach to the economical biosynthesis of (R)-(+)-perillyl alcohol.

Abstract
l-glutamine is a semi-essential amino acid widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The microbial synthesis of l-glutamine is limited by lack of effective strains with high titer and safety. First, ARTP mutagenesis combined with high-throughput screening generated an l-glutamine-producing strain of Corynebacterium glutamicum with titer of 25.7 ± 2.7 g/L. Subsequently, a series of rational metabolic approaches were used to further improve l-glutamine production, which included increasing the carbon flow to l-glutamine (proB and NCgl1221 knockout), enhancing the catalytic efficiency of the key enzyme (glnE knockout and glnA screening and overexpression) and reinforcement of ATP regeneration (ppk overexpression and RBS optimization). Finally, we proposed a two-stage pH control strategy to address the inconsistent effect of pH on cell growth and l-glutamine production. These combined strategies led to a 186.0% increase of l-glutamine titer compared to that of the initial strain, reaching 73.5 ± 3.1 g/L with a yield of 0.368 ± 0.034 g/g glucose.

Abstract
α-Amino acids and α-keto acids are versatile building blocks for the synthesis of several commercially valuable products in the food, agricultural, and pharmaceutical industries. In this study, a novel transamination-like reaction catalyzed by leucine dehydrogenase was successfully constructed for the efficient enzymatic co-synthesis of α-amino acids and α-keto acids. In this reaction mode, the α-keto acid substrate was reduced and the α-amino acid substrate was oxidized simultaneously by the enzyme, without the need for an additional coenzyme regeneration system. The thermodynamically unfavorable oxidation reaction was driven by the reduction reaction. The efficiency of the biocatalytic reaction was evaluated using 12 different substrate combinations, and a significant variation was observed in substrate conversion, which was subsequently explained by the differences in enzyme kinetics parameters. The reaction with the selected model substrates 2-oxobutanoic acid and L-leucine reached 90.3% conversion with a high total turnover number of 9.0 × 106 under the optimal reaction conditions. Furthermore, complete conversion was achieved by adjusting the ratio of addition of the two substrates. The constructed reaction mode can be applied to other amino acid dehydrogenases in future studies to synthesize a wider range of valuable products.
