Abstract
Site-directed mutagenesis was employed to investigate the structure-function relationship of nattokinase (NK) and its effect on the enzymatic activity, thermostability, pH tolerance, and fibrinolytic properties of NK. Specific mutations (T270S, V271I, E262D, and A259T) were introduced within the nk gene, targeting regions predicted to be involved in substrate binding. The NK(E262D) mutant exhibited a significant increase in enzymatic activity (2-fold) and catalytic efficiency (2.2-fold) as assessed by N-Succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe p-nitroanilide (Suc-AAPF-pNA) hydrolysis, compared to the wild type. In silico analysis supported these findings, demonstrating lower binding energy for the NK(E262D) mutant, suggesting stronger fibrin affinity. Thermostability assays revealed that NK(E262D) and NK(A259T) displayed exceptional stability, retaining enzyme activity at 60 °C. All mutants exhibited a broader pH tolerance range (pH 5.0-10.0) compared to the wild-type NK. The fibrinolytic activity assay revealed that the E262D mutant possessed the highest fibrinolytic activity (2414 U/mg), surpassing the wild-type. This study reported an NK variant with improved enzymatic activity, thermostability, and fibrinolytic properties.

Abstract
Due to the growing demand for natural carotenoids, researchers have been searching for strains that are capable of efficient synthesis of these compounds. This study tested 114 red yeast strains collected from various natural environments and food specimens in Poland. The strains were isolated by their ability to produce red or yellow pigments in rich nutrient media. According to potential industrial significance of the carotenoids, both their total production and share of individual carotenoids (β-carotene, γ-carotene, torulene, and torularhodin) were analyzed. The total content of carotenoid pigments in the yeast dry matter ranged from 13.88 to 406.50 µg/g, and the percentages of individual carotenoids highly varied among the strains. Most of the yeast isolates synthesized torulene at the highest amount. Among the studied strains, isolates with a total carotenoid content in biomass greater than 200 µg/g and those containing more than 60% torularhodin were selected for identification (48 strains). The identified strains belonged to six genera: Rhodotorula, Sporidiobolus, Sporobolomyces, Buckleyzyma, Cystofilobasidium, and Erythrobasidium. The largest number of isolates belonged to Rhodotorula babjevae (18), Rhodotorula mucilaginosa (7), Sporidiobolus pararoseus (4), and Rhodotorula glutinis (4).

Biotechnol Bioeng 2021; 118:2493-2502. [PMID: 33760222 DOI: 10.1002/bit.27761] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2020] [Revised: 03/16/2021] [Accepted: 03/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
Enzymatic synthesis of l-alanine has the advantages of less byproducts, strong stereoselectivity, and high catalytic efficiency. Aspartate 4-decarboxylase (ASD) is used industrially in DL-aspartic acid resolution and l-alanine production because it catalyzes the decarboxylation of l-aspartic acid. In this study, the ASD gene from Acinetobacter radioresistens (ArASD) was cloned, and its enzymatic properties were analyzed. ArASD is a dodecamer and has the highest enzyme activity ever reported to date. The optimal conditions for ArASD catalysis are 50°C and pH 4.5. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to improve ArASD stability under acidic conditions to compensate for its weak acid resistance, and the variant N35D with higher catalytic ability was obtained. The conversion by N35 recombinant cells of l-aspartic acid to l-alanine was 92.5% at pH 4.5% and 99.9% at pH 6.0, whereas that of the wild-type recombinant cells was 29.7% and 31.4%, respectively. Aspartase from Escherichia coli (AspA) was employed with ArASD to construct a dual-enzyme system that catalyzes fumaric acid to l-alanine, and the conversion reached 97.1% using recombinant cells harboring the dual-enzyme system. This study explored the enzymatic properties of ArASD and an effective strategy for the acidic resistance modification of ASD. Moreover, the strain expressing the ArASD variant and AspA engineered in this study has great potential application for the l-alanine production industry, especially in the case of high optical purity requirements.

Biomedical applications of microbial phenylalanine ammonia lyase: Current status and future prospects. Biochimie 2020; 177:142-152.

Abstract
Phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) has recently emerged as an important therapeutic enzyme with several biomedical applications. The enzyme catabolizes l-phenylalanine to trans-cinnamate and ammonia. PAL is widely distributed in higher plants, some algae, ferns, and microorganisms, but absent in animals. Although microbial PAL has been extensively exploited in the past for producing industrially important metabolites, its high substrate specificity and catalytic efficacy lately spurred interest in its biomedical applications. PEG-PAL drug named Palynziq™, isolated from Anabaena variabilis has been recently approved for the treatment of adult phenylketonuria (PKU) patients. Further, it has exhibited high potency in regressing tumors and treating tyrosine related metabolic abnormalities like tyrosinemia. Several therapeutically valuable metabolites have been biosynthesized via its catalytic action including dietary supplements, antimicrobial peptides, aspartame, amino-acids, and their derivatives. This review focuses on all the prospective biomedical applications of PAL. It also provides an overview of the structure, production parameters, and various strategies to improve the therapeutic potential of this enzyme. Engineered PAL with improved pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties will further establish this enzyme as a highly efficient biological drug.

Exploring the therapeutic potential of modern and ancestral phenylalanine/tyrosine ammonia-lyases as supplementary treatment of hereditary tyrosinemia. Sci Rep 2020; 10:1315.

Abstract
Phenylalanine/tyrosine ammonia-lyases (PAL/TALs) have been approved by the FDA for treatment of phenylketonuria and may harbour potential for complementary treatment of hereditary tyrosinemia Type I. Herein, we explore ancestral sequence reconstruction as an enzyme engineering tool to enhance the therapeutic potential of PAL/TALs. We reconstructed putative ancestors from fungi and compared their catalytic activity and stability to two modern fungal PAL/TALs. Surprisingly, most putative ancestors could be expressed as functional tetramers in Escherichia coli and thus retained their ability to oligomerize. All ancestral enzymes displayed increased thermostability compared to both modern enzymes, however, the increase in thermostability was accompanied by a loss in catalytic turnover. One reconstructed ancestral enzyme in particular could be interesting for further drug development, as its ratio of specific activities is more favourable towards tyrosine and it is more thermostable than both modern enzymes. Moreover, long-term stability assessment showed that this variant retained substantially more activity after prolonged incubation at 25 °C and 37 °C, as well as an increased resistance to incubation at 60 °C. Both of these factors are indicative of an extended shelf-life of biopharmaceuticals. We believe that ancestral sequence reconstruction has potential for enhancing the properties of enzyme therapeutics, especially with respect to stability. This work further illustrates that resurrection of putative ancestral oligomeric proteins is feasible and provides insight into the extent of conservation of a functional oligomerization surface area from ancestor to modern enzyme.

[PMID: 30448740 DOI: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2018.11.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2018] [Revised: 11/06/2018] [Accepted: 11/08/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
Coumarins exhibit many biological activities and are the main specialised metabolites of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn, an important plant used in traditional Chinese medicine. In preliminary studies, we cloned several genes involved in coumarin biosynthesis in P. praeruptorum, such as 4-coumarate: CoA ligase (4CL), p-coumaroyl CoA 2'-hydroxylase (C2'H), feruloyl CoA 6'-hydroxylase (F6'H) and bergaptol O-methyltransferase (BMT). However, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) in P. praeruptorum (PpPAL) has not yet been studied. In the present study, we cloned one novel PpPAL gene. Subsequently, the relationship between gene and compounds was studied using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis. Then, enzyme function was analyzed with L-phenylalanine (L-Phe) as substrate. These experiments showed that the coumarin content could be upregulated by methyl jasmonate (MeJA), UV irradiation and cold, which was consistent with increased expression levels of PpPAL. In addition, correlation analysis indicated that coumarins were partially related to PpPAL. And the recombinant protein could catalyze the conversion of L-Phe to trans-cinnamic acid (t-CA) with a Km of 120 ± 33 μM and a Kcat of 117 ± 32 min-1. Besides, Tyr110, Phe116, Gly117, Ser206, Leu209, Leu259, Tyr354, Arg357, Asn387 and Phe403 were essential for enzymatic activity based on three-dimensional modeling and site-directed mutagenesis experiments. Altogether these results highlight the importance of PpPAL in abiotically induced coumarin biosynthesis and provide further insights regarding the structure-function relationships of this protein.

Abstract
Rhodotorula glutinis is capable of synthesizing numerous valuable compounds with a wide industrial usage. Biomass of this yeast constitutes sources of microbiological oils, and the whole pool of fatty acids is dominated by oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acid. Due to its composition, the lipids may be useful as a source for the production of the so-called third-generation biodiesel. These yeasts are also capable of synthesizing carotenoids such as β-carotene, torulene, and torularhodin. Due to their health-promoting characteristics, carotenoids are commonly used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries. They are also used as additives in fodders for livestock, fish, and crustaceans. A significant characteristic of R. glutinis is its capability to produce numerous enzymes, in particular, phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL). This enzyme is used in the food industry in the production of l-phenylalanine that constitutes the substrate for the synthesis of aspartame—a sweetener commonly used in the food industry.

Abstract
Phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) from Rhodotorula glutinis was encapsulated within polyethyleneimine-mediated biomimetic silica. The main factors in the preparation of biomimetic silica were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). Compared to free PAL (about 2 U), the encapsulated PAL retained more than 43 % of their initial activity after 1 h of incubation time at 60 °C, whereas free PAL lost most of activity in the same conditions. It was clearly indicated that the thermal stability of PAL was improved by encapsulation. Moreover, the encapsulated PAL exhibited the excellent stability of the enzyme against denaturants and storage stability, and pH stability was improved by encapsulation. Operational stability of 7 reaction cycles showed that the encapsulated PAL was stable. Nevertheless, the K m value of encapsulated PAL in biomimetic silica was higher than that of the free PAL due to lower total surface area and increased mass transfer resistance.
