[PMID: 38235362 PMCID: PMC10792170 DOI: 10.1016/j.csbj.2023.12.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Members of the phylum Bacteroidetes play a key role in the marine carbon cycle through their degradation of polysaccharides via carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) and polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs). The discovery of novel CAZymes and PULs is important for our understanding of the marine carbon cycle. In this study, we isolated and identified a potential new genus of the family Catalimonadaceae, in the phylum Bacteroidetes, from the southwest Indian Ocean. Strain TK19036, the type strain of the new genus, is predicted to encode CAZymes that are relatively abundant in marine Bacteroidetes genomes. Tunicatimonas pelagia NBRC 107804T, Porifericola rhodea NBRC 107748T and Catalinimonas niigatensis NBRC 109829T, which exhibit 16 S rRNA similarities exceeding 90% with strain TK19036, and belong to the same family, were selected as reference strains. These organisms possess a highly diverse repertoire of CAZymes and PULs, which may enable them to degrade a wide range of polysaccharides, especially pectin and alginate. In addition, some secretory CAZymes in strain TK19036 and its relatives were predicted to be transported by type IX secretion system (T9SS). Further, to the best of our knowledge, we propose the first reported "hybrid" PUL targeting alginates in T. pelagia NBRC 107804T. Our findings provide new insights into the polysaccharide degradation capacity of marine Bacteroidetes, and suggest that T9SS may play a more important role in this process than previously believed.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024:133474. [PMID: 38945338 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024]
Abstract
The Bacillus genus is widely distributed in nature, has bacteriostatic and growth-promoting activities, and has broad application potential in agriculture. An exopolysaccharide (EPS) was extracted and purified from Bacillus velezensis HY23. Structural characterisation of the EPS was performed by chemical and spectroscopic analyses. Methylation analysis showed that the EPS of HY23 was composed of mannose and glucose at a ratio of 82:18 and was identified as glucomannan. Combined with the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis, EPS from HY23 had a backbone of →2)-α-D-Manp-(1 → and →2,6)-α-D-Manp-(1 → branched at C-6 with terminal α-(3-O-Me)-D-Manp-(1 → and →6)-α-D-Manp-(1 → residues as the side chain. A certain amount of β-D-Glcp residues were also present in backbone. Moreover, EPS significantly improved the nitrogen-fixing activity and salt resistance of soybean seedlings by regulating the antioxidant pool and expression of ion transporters. These findings indicate that EPS from B. velezensis HY23 is a potential biostimulant for enhancing plant resistance to salt stress.

Sustainable production of heavy metal-binding levan by a subarctic permafrost thaw lake Pseudomonas strain 2ASCA. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 268:131664. [PMID: 38636757 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131664] [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: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
Pseudomonas strain 2ASCA isolated in subarctic Québec, Canada, produced a cell membrane bound levan-type exopolymer (yield 1.17 g/L), after incubation in growth media containing 6 % sucrose (w/v) at temperature of 15 °C for 96 h. The objective of this study was to optimize levan production by varying the growth parameters. Moreover, the polymer's chemical characterization has been studied with the aim of increasing knowledge and leading to future applications in many fields, including heavy metal remediation. Higher levan yields (7.37 g/L) were reached by setting up microbial fermentation conditions based on the re-use of the molasses obtained from sugar beet processing. Spectroscopy analyses confirmed the levan-type nature of the exopolymer released by strain 2ASCA, consisting of a β-(2,6)-linked fructose repeating unit. Gel permeation chromatography revealed that the polymer has a molecular weight of 13 MDa. Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) showed that the levan sequestered with a strong affinity Cr(III), which has never been previously reported, highlighting an interesting biosorption potential. In addition, SEM analysis revealed the formation of nanoparticles in acidified water solution.

Production and structural characterization of eco-friendly bioemulsifier SC04 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain MYN04 with potential applications. Microb Cell Fact 2023; 22:176. [PMID: 37679768 PMCID: PMC10485968 DOI: 10.1186/s12934-023-02186-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioemulsifiers are natural or microbial-based products with the ability to emulsify hydrophobic compounds in water. These compounds are biodegradable, eco-friendly, and find applications in various industries. RESULTS Thirteen yeasts were isolated from different sources in Alexandria, Egypt, and evaluated for their potential to produce intracellular bioemulsifiers. One yeast, isolated from a local market in Egypt, showed the highest emulsification index (EI24) value. Through 26S rRNA sequencing, this yeast was identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain MYN04. The growth kinetics of the isolate were studied, and after 36 h of incubation, the highest yield of cell dry weight (CDW) was obtained at 3.17 g/L, with an EI24 of 55.6%. Experimental designs were used to investigate the effects of culture parameters on maximizing bioemulsifier SC04 production and CDW. The study achieved a maximum EI24 of 79.0 ± 2.0%. Furthermore, the crude bioemulsifier was precipitated with 50% ethanol and purified using Sephadex G-75 gel filtration chromatography. Bioemulsifier SC04 was found to consist of 27.1% carbohydrates and 72.9% proteins. Structural determination of purified bioemulsifier SC04 was carried out using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). FTIR spectroscopy revealed characteristic bands associated with carboxyl and hydroxyl groups of carbohydrates, as well as amine groups of proteins. HPLC analysis of monosaccharide composition detected the presence of mannose, galactose, and glucose. Physicochemical characterization of the fraction after gel filtration indicated that bioemulsifier SC04 is a high molecular weight protein-oligosaccharide complex. This bioemulsifier demonstrated stability at different pH values, temperatures, and salinities. At a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL, it exhibited 51.8% scavenging of DPPH radicals. Furthermore, in vitro cytotoxicity evaluation using the MTT assay revealed a noncytotoxic effect of SC04 against normal epithelial kidney cell lines. CONCLUSIONS This study presents a new eco-friendly bioemulsifier, named SC04, which exhibits significant emulsifying ability, antioxidant and anticancer properties, and stabilizing properties. These findings suggest that SC04 is a promising candidate for applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and industrial sectors.
