Abstract
Understanding structure-function relationships in proteins is pivotal in their development as industrial biocatalysts. In this regard, rational engineering of protein active site access pathways and various tunnels and channels plays a central role in designing competent enzymes with high stability and enhanced efficiency. Here, we report the rational evolution of a thermostable cytochrome P450, CYP175A1, to catalyze the C-H activation reaction of longer-chain alkanes. A strategy combining computational tools with experiments has shown that the substrate scope and enzymatic activity can be enhanced by rational engineering of certain important channels such as the substrate entry and water channels along with the active site of the enzyme. The evolved enzymes showed an improved catalytic rate for hexadecane hydroxylation with high regioselectivity. The Q67L/Y68F mutation showed binding of the substrate in the active site, water channel mutation L80F/V220T showed improved catalytic activity through the peroxide shunt pathway and substrate entry channel mutation W269F/I270A showed better substrate accessibility to the active pocket. All-atom MD simulations provided the rationale for the inactivity of the wild-type CYP175A1 for hexadecane hydroxylation and predicted the above hot-spot residues to enhance the activity. The reaction mechanism was studied by QM/MM calculations for enzyme-substrate complexes and reaction intermediates. Detailed thermal and thermodynamic stability of all the mutants were analyzed and the results showed that the evolved enzymes were thermally stable. The present strategy showed promising results, and insights gained from this work can be applied to the general enzymatic system to expand substrate scope and improve catalytic activity.

Abstract
As some of the most widely used biocatalysts, lipases have exhibited extreme advantages in many processes, such as esterification, amidation, and transesterification reactions, which causes them to be widely used in food industrial production. However, natural lipases have drawbacks in terms of organic solvent resistance, thermostability, selectivity, etc., which limits some of their applications in the field of foods. In this systematic review, the application of lipases in various food processes was summarized. Moreover, the general structure of lipases is discussed in-depth, and the engineering strategies that can be used in lipase engineering are also summarized. The protocols of some classical methods are compared and discussed, which can provide some information about how to choose methods of lipase engineering. Thermostability engineering and solvent tolerance engineering are highlighted in this review, and the basic principles for improving thermostability and solvent tolerance are summarized. In the future, comput er-aided technology should be more emphasized in the investigation of the mechanisms of reactions catalyzed by lipases and guide the engineering of lipases. The engineering of lipase tunnels to improve the diffusion of substrates is also a promising prospect for further enhanced lipase activity and selectivity.

Abstract
The self-assembled ferritin nanocages, nature's solution to iron toxicity and its low solubility, scavenge free iron to synthesize hydrated ferric oxyhydroxide mineral inside their central cavity by protein-mediated ferroxidase and hydrolytic/nucleation reactions. These complex processes in ferritin commence with the rapid influx of Fe2+ ions via the inter-subunit contact points (i.e., pores/channels). Investigation of these pores as Fe2+ uptake routes in ferritins remains a subject of intense research, in iron metabolism, toxicity, and bacterial pathogenesis, which are yet to be established in the bacterioferritin (BfrA) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The electrostatic properties of this protein indicate that the 4-fold and B-pores might serve as potential Fe2+ entry routes. Therefore, in the current work, electrostatics at/along these pores was altered by site-directed mutagenesis to establish their role in Fe2+ uptake/oxidation (ferroxidase activity) in Mtb BfrA. Despite forming self-assembled protein nanocompartment, these 4-fold and B-pore variants exhibited partial loss of ferroxidase activity and lower accumulation of transient species, which not only indicated their role in Fe2+ entry but also suggested the existence of multiple pathways. Although the B-pore variants inhibited the rapid ferroxidase activity to a larger extent, they had minimal impact on their cage stability. The current work revealed the relative contribution of these pores toward rapid Fe2+ uptake/oxidation and cage stability, possibly as consequences of their differential symmetry, number of modified residues (at each pore), and heme content. Therefore, these findings may help to understand the role of these pores in iron acquisition and Mtb proliferation under iron-limiting conditions to control its pathogenesis.

Abstract
Thermostable cytochrome P450 (CYP175A1) cloned from Thermus thermophilus shows mid-point unfolding temperature (Tm) of 88 °C (361 K) along with high thermodynamic stability making it a potential industrially viable biocatalyst. Molecular docking analyses, and structural superposition with steroidogenic and fatty acid metabolizing cytochrome P450 s suggested that the tyrosine 68 may have important role in binding as well as metabolism of substrates by the enzyme. Site-saturation mutation of the tyrosine 68 residue was carried out and several unique mutations were obtained that were properly folded and showed high thermostability. We investigated the effects of variation of the single residue, Tyr68 at the substrate binding pocket of the enzyme on the substrate specificity of CYP175A1. Screening of the mutant colonies of CYP175A1 obtained after saturation mutagenesis of Tyr68 using saturated fatty acid, myristic acid and poly unsaturated fatty acids showed that the Y68K had notable binding and catalytic activity for mono-oxygenation of the saturated fatty acid (myristic acid), which had no major detectable binding affinity towards the WT enzyme. The Y68R mutant of CYP175A1, on the other hand was found to selectively bind and catalyse reaction of cholesterol. The wild type as well as both the mutants of the enzyme however bind poly unsaturated fatty acids. The results thus show that saturation mutation of a single amino acid at the substrate binding pocket of the thermostable cytochrome P450 could induce sufficient changes in the substrate binding pocket of the enzyme that can efficiently change substrate specificity of the enzyme.

Abstract
The uptake and utilization of iron remains critical for the survival/virulence of the host/pathogens in spite of the limitations (low bioavailability/high toxicity) associated with this nutrient. Both the host and pathogens manage to overcome these problems by utilizing the iron repository protein nanocages, ferritins, which not only sequester and detoxify the free Fe(II) ions but also decrease the iron solubility gap by synthesizing/encapsulating the Fe(III)-oxyhydroxide biomineral in its central hollow nanocavity. Bacterial pathogens including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis, encode a distinct subclass of ferritins called bacterioferritin (BfrA), which binds heme, the versatile redox cofactor, via coaxial, conserved methionine (M52) residues at its subunit-dimer interfaces. However, the exact role of heme in Mtb BfrA remains yet to be established. Therefore, its coaxial ligands were altered via site-directed mutagenesis, which resulted in both heme-bound (M52C; ∼1 heme per cage) and heme-free (M52H and M52L) variants, indicating the importance of M52 residues as preferential heme binding axial ligands in Mtb BfrA. All these variants formed intact nanocages of similar size and iron-loading ability as that of wild-type (WT) Mtb BfrA. However, the as-isolated heme-bound variants (WT and M52C) exhibited enhanced protein stability and reductive iron mobilization as compared to their heme-free analogues (M52H and M52L). Further, increasing the heme content in BfrA variants by reconstitution not only enhanced the cage stability but also facilitated the iron mobilization, suggesting the role of heme. In contrary, heme altered the ferroxidase activity to a lesser extent despite facilitating the accumulation of the reactive intermediates formed during the course of the reaction. The current study suggests that heme in Mtb BfrA enhances the overall stability of the protein and possibly acts as an intrinsic electron relay station to influence the iron mineral dissolution and thus may be associated with Mtb's pathogenicity.

Abstract
Biocatalysis for the synthesis of fine chemicals is highly attractive but usually requires organic (co-)solvents (OSs). However, native enzymes often have low activity and resistance in OSs and at elevated temperatures. Herein, we report a smart salt bridge design strategy for simultaneously improving OS resistance and thermostability of the model enzyme, Bacillus subtilits Lipase A (BSLA). We combined comprehensive experimental studies of 3450 BSLA variants and molecular dynamics simulations of 36 systems. Iterative recombination of four beneficial substitutions yielded superior resistant variants with up to 7.6-fold (D64K/D144K) improved resistance toward three OSs while exhibiting significant thermostability (thermal resistance up to 137-fold, and half-life up to 3.3-fold). Molecular dynamics simulations revealed that locally refined flexibility and strengthened hydration jointly govern the highly increased resistance in OSs and at 50-100 °C. The salt bridge redesign provides protein engineers with a powerful and likely general approach to design OSs- and/or thermal-resistant lipases and other α/β-hydrolases.

Abstract
The enhanced thermostability of thermophilic proteins with respect to their mesophilic counterparts is often attributed to the enthalpy effect, arising from strong interactions between protein residues. Intuitively, these strong interresidue interactions will rigidify the biomolecules. However, the present work utilizing neutron scattering and solution NMR spectroscopy measurements demonstrates a contrary example that the thermophilic cytochrome P450, CYP119, is much more flexible than its mesophilic counterpart, CYP101A1, something which is not apparent just from structural comparison of the two proteins. A mechanism to explain this apparent contradiction is that higher flexibility in the folded state of CYP119 increases its conformational entropy and thereby reduces the entropy gain during denaturation, which will increase the free energy needed for unfolding and thus stabilize the protein. This scenario is supported by thermodynamic data on the temperature dependence of unfolding free energy, which shows a significant entropic contribution to the thermostability of CYP119 and lends an added dimension to enhanced stability, previously attributed only to presence of aromatic stacking interactions and salt bridge networks. Our experimental data also support the notion that highly thermophilic P450s such as CYP119 may use a mechanism that partitions flexibility differently from mesophilic P450s between ligand binding and thermal stability.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 are found throughout the biosphere in a wide range of environments, serving a multitude of physiological functions. The ubiquity of the P450 fold suggests that it has been co-opted by evolution many times, and likely presents a useful compromise between structural stability and conformational flexibility. The diversity of substrates metabolized and reactions catalyzed by P450s makes them attractive starting materials for use as biocatalysts of commercially useful reactions. However, process conditions impose different requirements on enzymes to those in which they have evolved naturally. Most natural environments are relatively mild, and therefore most P450s have not been selected in Nature for the ability to withstand temperatures above ~40°C, yet industrial processes frequently require extended incubations at much higher temperatures. Thus, there has been considerable interest and effort invested in finding or engineering thermostable P450 systems. Numerous P450s have now been identified in thermophilic organisms and analysis of their structures provides information as to mechanisms by which the P450 fold can be stabilized. In addition, protein engineering, particularly by directed or artificial evolution, has revealed mutations that serve to stabilize particular mesophilic enzymes of interest. Here we review the current understanding of thermostability as it applies to the P450 fold, gleaned from the analysis of P450s characterized from thermophilic organisms and the parallel engineering of mesophilic forms for greater thermostability. We then present a perspective on how this information might be used to design stable P450 enzymes for industrial application. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Cytochrome P450 biodiversity and biotechnology, edited by Erika Plettner, Gianfranco Gilardi, Luet Wong, Vlada Urlacher, Jared Goldstone.

Abstract
Detailed spectroscopic and kinetic studies of incorporation of copper ion in the wild type (WT) and the D111AA (AA = K, N, or E) mutants of the metal ion binding site of the soluble fragment of subunit II of cytochrome c oxidase from Thermus thermophilus (TtCuA) showed the formation of at least two distinct intermediates. The global analyses of the multiwavelength kinetic results suggested a four-step reaction scheme involving two distinct intermediates in the pathway of incorporation of copper ions into the apoprotein forming the purple dinuclear CuA. An early intermediate similar to the red copper binding proteins was detected in the WT as well as in all the mutants. The second intermediate was a green copper species in the case of WT TtCuA. Mutation of Asp111, however, formed a second intermediate that is distinctly different from that formed in the case of the WT protein, suggesting that mutants follow pathways of copper ion incorporation different from that in the WT protein. The electrostatic interaction between Asp111 and the coordinating His114 possibly plays a subtle role in the mechanism of incorporation of metal ion into the protein. The overall Kd for WT TtCuA was found to be ~8 nM, which changed with mutation of the Asp111 residue. The activation and thermodynamic parameters were also determined from the temperature- and pH-dependent multiwavelength kinetics, and the results are discussed to unravel the role of Asp111 in the mechanism of formation of the dinuclear CuA center in cytochrome c oxidase.
