Abstract
Polyacrylamide (PAM) hydrogels are widely used in wide-ranging applications in biology, medicine, pharmaceuticals and environmental sectors. However, achieving the requisite mechanical properties, fatigue resistance, self-recovery, biocompatibility, and biodegradability remains a challenge. Herein, we present a facile method to construct a nanocomposite hydrogel by integrating short linear glucan (SLG), obtained by debranching waxy corn starch, into a PAM network through self-assembly. The resulting composite hydrogel with 10 % SLG content exhibited satisfactory stretchability (withstanding over 1200 % strain), along with maximum compressive and shear strengths of about 490 kPa and 39 kPa at 90 % deformation, respectively. The hydrogel demonstrated remarkable resilience and could endure repeated compression and stretching. Notably, the nanocomposite hydrogel with 10 % SLG content exhibited full stress recovery at 90 % compression deformation after 20 s, without requiring specific environmental conditions, achieving an energy dissipation recovery rate of 98 %. Meanwhile, these hydrogels exhibited strong adhesion to various soft and hard substrates, including skin, glasses and metals. Furthermore, they maintain solid integrity at both 37 °C and 50 °C after swelling equilibrium, unlike traditional PAM hydrogels, which exhibited softening under similar conditions. We hope that this PAM-SLG hydrogel will open up new avenues for the development of multifunctional electronic devices, offering enhanced performance and versatility.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are important starch derivatives and commonly comprise α-, β-, and γ-CDs. Their hydrophilic surface and hydrophobic inner cavity enable regulation of enzyme catalysis through direct or indirect interactions. Clarifying interactions between CDs and enzyme is of great value for enzyme screening, mechanism exploration, regulation of catalysis, and applications. We summarize the interactions between CDs and glycoside hydrolases (GHs) according to two aspects: 1) CD as products, substrates, inhibitors and activators of enzymes, directly affecting the reaction process; 2) CDs indirectly affecting the enzymatic reaction by solubilizing substrates, relieving substrate/product inhibition, increasing recombinant enzyme production and storage stability, isolating and purifying enzymes, and serving as ligands in crystal structure to identify functional amino acid residues. Additionally, CD enzyme mimetics are developed and used as catalysts in traditional artificial enzymes as well as nanozymes, making the application of CDs no longer limited to GHs. This review concerns the regulation of GHs catalysis by CDs, and gives insights into research on interactions between enzymes and ligands.

Abstract
Efficient production of cyclodextrins (CDs) has always been challenging. CDs are primarily produced from starch via cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase), which acts on α-1,4 glucosidic bonds; however, α-1,6 glucosidic bonds in starch suppress the enzymatic production of CDs. In this study, a glycogen debranching enzyme from Saccharolobus solfataricus STB09 (SsGDE) was utilized to promote the production of β-CD by hydrolyzing α-1,6 glucosidic bonds. The addition of SsGDE (750 U/g of starch) at the liquefaction stage remarkably improved the β-CD yield, with a 43.9% increase. Further mechanism exploration revealed that SsGDE addition could hydrolyze specific branches with less generation of byproducts, thereby promoting CD production. The chain segments of a degree of polymerization ≥13 produced by SsGDE debranching could also be utilized by β-CGTase to convert into CDs. Overall, these findings proposed a new approach of combining SsGDE with β-CGTase to enhance the CD yield.

Abstract
Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) is a significant extracellular enzyme with diverse functions. CGTase is widely used in production of cyclic α-(1,4)-linked oligosaccharides (cyclodextrins) from starch via transglycosylation reaction. Recent discoveries of novel CGTases from different microorganisms have expanded its applications but natural CGTase have lower yield, leading to heterologous expression for increased production to meet various needs. Moreover, significant advancements in directed evolution approach have been explored to alter the molecular structure of CGTase to enhance its performance. This review comprehensively summarizes the strategies employed in heterologous expression to boost CGTase production and secretion in various host. It also outlines molecular engineering approaches aimed to improving CGTase properties, including product and substrate specificity, catalytic efficiency, and thermal stability. Additionally, a considerable stability against changes in temperature and organic solvents can be obtained by immobilization.

Abstract
Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) is a crucial enzyme for various biotechnology applications, such as producing phenols, antioxidants, and nutraceuticals. However, feedback inhibition from its product, cinnamic acid, limits its forward reaction rate. Therefore, this study aims to address the feedback inhibition in PAL using enzyme engineering strategies. Random and site-directed mutagenesis approaches were utilized to screen mutant enzymes with ameliorated tolerance against cinnamic acid. A thermotolerant and cinnamate-tolerant mutant was rationally identified using a high throughput screening method and subsequent biochemical characterization. We evaluated cinnamate affinity among the seven rationally selected mutations, and the T102E mutation was identified as the most promising mutant. This mutant showed a six-fold reduction in the affinity of PAL for cinnamic acid and a two-fold increase in operational stability compared with native PAL. Furthermore, the enzyme was immobilized on carbon nanotubes to increase its robustness and reusability. The immobilized mutant PAL showed greater efficiency in the deamination of phenylalanine present in protein hydrolysate than its free form. The rationale behind the enhancement of cinnamate tolerance was validated using molecular dynamic simulations. Overall, the knowledge of the sequence-function relationship of PAL was applied to drive enzyme engineering to develop highly tolerant PAL.

Engineering of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase improves the conversion efficiency of rebaudioside A to glucosylated steviol glycosides and increases the content of short-chain glycosylated steviol glycoside. Microb Cell Fact 2023; 22:113. [PMID: 37312096 DOI: 10.1186/s12934-023-02121-2] [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: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Compared with steviol glycosides, the taste of glucosylated steviol glycosides is better and more similar to that of sucrose. At present, cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) is primarily used to catalyze the conversion of steviol glycosides to glucosylated steviol glycosides, with soluble starch serving as a glycosyl donor. The main disadvantages of enzymatic transglycosylation are the limited number of enzymes available, the low conversion rates that result in low yields, and the lack of selectivity in the degree of glycosylation of the products. In order to fill these gaps, the proteome of Alkalihalobacillus oshimensis (also named Bacillus oshimensis) was used for mining novel CGTases. RESULTS Here, CGTase-15, a novel β-CGTase with a wide pH adaptation range, was identified and characterized. The catalyzed product of CGTase-15 tasted better than that of the commercial enzyme (Toruzyme® 3.0 L). In addition, two amino acid sites, Y199 and G265, which play important roles in the conversion of steviol glycosides to glucosylated steviol glycosides were identified by site-directed mutagenesis. Compared with CGTase-15, CGTase-15-Y199F mutant significantly increased the conversion rate of rebaudioside A (RA) to glucosylated steviol glycosides. Compared with CGTase-15, the content of short-chain glycosylated steviol glycosides catalyzed by CGTase-15-G265A mutant was significantly increased. Moreover, the function of Y199 and G265 was verified in other CGTases. The above mutation pattern has also been applied to CGTase-13 (a CGTase discovered by our laboratory with great potential in the production of glycosylated steviol glycosides), confirming that the catalytic product of CGTase-13-Y189F/G255A mutant has a better taste than that of CGTase-13. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report on the improvement of the sensory profiles of glycosylated steviol glycosides through site-directed mutagenesis of CGTase, which is significant for the production of glycosylated steviol glycosides.

Abstract
Cyclodextrinase (CDase) and cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase (CGTase) were synergistically used to provide a novel enzymatic method in lowing in vitro digestibility of waxy maize starch. The molecular structure, malto-oligosaccharide composition, and digestibility properties of the generated products were investigated. The molecular weight was reduced to 0.3 × 105 g/mol and 0.2 × 105 g/mol by simultaneous and sequential treatment with CDase and CGTase, while the highest proportion of chains with degree of polymerization (DP) < 13 was obtained by simultaneous treatment. The resistant starch contents were increased to 27.5% and 36.9% by simultaneous and sequential treatments respectively. Dual-enzyme treatment significantly promoted the content of malto-oligosaccharides (MOSs) by hydrolyzing cyclodextrins from CGTase with CDase. However, the replacement of cyclodextrins by MOSs did not obviously influence the digestibility of the products. The starch digestion kinetics further revealed the hydrolysis pattern of these two enzymes on the starch hydrolysate. It was proved that the starch digestibility could be lowered by modulating the molecular structure and beneficial MOSs content by this dual-enzyme treatment.

Maltose binding site 2 mutations affect product inhibition of Bacillus circulans STB01 cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 175:254-261.

Abstract
The efficiency of enzymatic cyclodextrin production using cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases (CGTases) is limited by product inhibition. In this study, maltose binding site 2 (MBS2) of the β-CGTase from Bacillus circulans STB01 was modified to decrease product inhibition. First, two point mutants were prepared at position 599 (A599V and A599N). Then, two double mutants incorporating alanine at position 633 (A599N/Y633A and A599V/Y633A) were prepared. Finally, the entire MBS2 region was replaced by that of the α-CGTase from Paenibacillus macerans JFB05-01 to form multipoint mutant MBS2 β → α. All five mutants exhibited mixed-type product inhibition, although both the competitive and uncompetitive components of this inhibition were decreased. The total cyclization activities of A599N, A599V and A599V/Y633A were 15.6%, 76.8% and 70.9% lower than that of the wild-type, respectively, while that of A599N/Y633A was 22.4% higher. Among the mutants, only MBS2 β → α showed catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) comparable with that of the wild-type. Moreover, A599N, A599N/Y633A and MBS2 β → α produced cyclodextrin yields 13.1%, 15.8% and 19.7% greater than that of the wild-type, respectively. These results suggest that A599N, A599N/Y633A and MBS2 β → α may be more suitable than the wild-type for cyclodextrin production.

Abstract
Verticillium wilt is a plant vascular disease caused by the soilborne fungus Verticillium dahliae that severely limits cotton production. In a previous study, we screened Bacillus cereus YUPP-10, an efficient antagonistic bacterium, to uncover mechanisms for controlling verticillium wilt. Here, we report a novel antimicrobial cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) from YUPP-10. Compared to other CGTases, six different conserved domains were identified, and six mutants were constructed by gene splicing with overlap extension PCR. Functional analysis showed that domain D was important for hydrolysis activity and domains A1 and C were important for inducing disease resistance. Direct effects of recombinant CGTase on V. dahliae included reduced mycelial growth, spore germination, spore production, and microsclerotia germination. In addition, CGTase also elicited cotton's innate defence reactions. Transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana lines that overexpress CGTase showed higher resistance to verticillium wilt. Transgenic CGTase A. thaliana plants grew faster and resisted disease better. CGTase overexpression enabled a burst of reactive oxygen species production and activated pathogenesis-related gene expression, indicating that the transgenic cotton was better prepared to protect itself from infection. Our work revealed that CGTase could inhibit the growth of V. dahliae, activate innate immunity, and play a major role in the biocontrol of fungal pathogens.
