Serra LA, Mendes TD, Marco JLD, de Almeida JRM. Application of Thermomyces lanuginosus polygalacturonase produced in Komagataella phaffii in biomass hydrolysis and textile bioscouring. Enzyme Microb Technol 2024; 177:110424. [PMID: 38479075 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2024.110424] [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: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
In this work, the polygalacturonase (TL-PG1) from the thermophilic fungus Thermomyces lanuginosus was heterologously produced for the first time in the yeast Komagataella phaffii. The TL-PG1 was successfully expressed under the control of the AOX1 promoter and sequentially purified by His-tag affinity. The purified recombinant pectinase exhibited an activity of 462.6 U/mL toward polygalacturonic acid under optimal conditions (pH 6 and 55 ˚C) with a 2.83 mg/mL and 0.063 μmol/minute for Km and Vmax, respectively. When used as supplementation for biomass hydrolysis, TL-PG1 demonstrated synergy with the enzymatic cocktail Ctec3 to depolymerize orange citrus pulp, releasing 1.43 mg/mL of reducing sugar. In addition, TL-PG1 exhibited efficiency in fabric bioscouring, showing potential usage in the textile industry. Applying a protein dosage of 7 mg/mL, the time for the fabric to absorb water was 19.77 seconds (ten times faster than the control). Adding the surfactant Triton to the treatment allowed the reduction of the enzyme dosage by 50% and the water absorption time to 6.38 seconds. Altogether, this work describes a new versatile polygalacturonase from T. lanuginosus with the potential to be employed in the hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass and bioscouring.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 267:131565. [PMID: 38614184 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131565] [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: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024]
Abstract
Endopolygalacturonases are crucial pectinases known for their efficient and sustainable pectin depolymerization activities. The present study identified a novel gene encoding endopolygalacturonase from an acidic mine tailing metagenome. The putative gene showed a maximum identity of 67.55 % with an uncharacterized peptide sequence from Flavobacterium fluvii. The gene was cloned and expressed in a heterologous host, E. coli. Biochemical characterization of the novel endopolygalacturonase enzyme variant (EPHM) showed maximum activity at 60 °C and at 5.0 pH, while retaining 50 % activity under the temperature and pH range of 20 °C to 70 °C for 6 h, and 3.0 to 10.0 for 3 h, respectively. The enzyme exhibited tolerance to different metal ions. EPHM was characterized for the depolymerization of methylated pectin into pectic oligosaccharides. Further, its utility was established for fruit juice clarification, as endorsed by high transmittance, significant viscosity reduction, and release of reducing sugars in the treated fruit juice samples.

Abstract
Maltotetraose amylase, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of amylaceous polysaccharides into maltooligosaccharides with maltotetraose as the main product, is extensively used in the food industry. However, the lack of efficient expression system for maltotetraose amylase has hampered its production and application. In this study, high-level production of a maltotetraose amylase mutant (referred to as Pp-Mta∆CBM) from Pseudomonas saccharophila was achieved in Pichia pastoris X-33. First, the gene of maltotetraose amylase with the carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) removed was codon-optimized and cloned into the pPICZαA vector, followed by transformation into P. pastoris X-33 for expression. Using the promoter PAOX1 and signal peptide α-factor, high-level production of Pp-Mta∆CBM with minimal extracellular impurity proteins was achieved, resulting in an extracellular activity of 367.9 U/mL after 7 days of cultivation in shake flasks. Next, the expressed Pp-Mta∆CBM was purified and characterized. This recombinant enzyme was glycosylated and has maximum activity at 55 ℃ and pH 7.0. Its Km for soluble starch was 4.1 g/L, and its kcat was 3237.6 s-1. Finally, the Pp-Mta∆CBM was found to produce a maximum maltotetraose yield of 57.1% in the presence of 200 g/L of substrate. The findings presented in this study demonstrate the efficient production of Pp-Mta∆CBM in P. pastoris, providing a new expression system for maltotetraose amylase and laying the foundation for its scale-up production and industrial application.

Immobilization and Application of the Recombinant Xylanase GH10 of Malbranchea pulchella in the Production of Xylooligosaccharides from Hydrothermal Liquor of the Eucalyptus ( Eucalyptus grandis) Wood Chips. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232113329. [PMID: 36362138 PMCID: PMC9656307 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232113329] [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: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Xylooligosaccharides (XOS) are widely used in the food industry as prebiotic components. XOS with high purity are required for practical prebiotic function and other biological benefits, such as antioxidant and inflammatory properties. In this work, we immobilized the recombinant endo-1,4-β-xylanase of Malbranchea pulchella (MpXyn10) in various chemical supports and evaluated its potential to produce xylooligosaccharides (XOS) from hydrothermal liquor of eucalyptus wood chips. Values >90% of immobilization yields were achieved from amino-activated supports for 120 min. The highest recovery values were found on Purolite (142%) and MANAE-MpXyn10 (137%) derivatives, which maintained more than 90% residual activity for 24 h at 70 °C, while the free-MpXyn10 maintained only 11%. In addition, active MpXyn10 derivatives were stable in the range of pH 4.0−6.0 and the presence of the furfural and HMF compounds. MpXyn10 derivatives were tested to produce XOS from xylan of various sources. Maximum values were observed for birchwood xylan at 8.6 mg mL−1 and wheat arabinoxylan at 8.9 mg mL−1, using Purolite-MpXyn10. Its derivative was also successfully applied in the hydrolysis of soluble xylan present in hydrothermal liquor, with 0.9 mg mL−1 of XOS after 3 h at 50 °C. This derivative maintained more than 80% XOS yield after six cycles of the assay. The results obtained provide a basis for the application of immobilized MpXyn10 to produce XOS with high purity and other high-value-added products in the lignocellulosic biorefinery field.

Abstract
Pectic substances cause haziness and high viscosity of fruit juices. Pectinase enzymes are biological compounds that degrade pectic compounds. Nontoxicity and ecofriendly nature make pectinases excellent biocatalysts for juice clarification. However, the poor stability and nonreusability of pectinases trim down the effectiveness of the operation. The immobilization techniques have gained the attention of researchers as it augments the properties of the enzymes. Literature has reported the stability improvement of enzymes like lipase, laccase, hydrogen peroxidase, and cellulase upon immobilization on the membrane. However, only a few research articles divulge pectinase immobilization using a membrane. The catalysis-separation synergy of membrane-reactor has put indelible imprints in industrial applications. Immobilization of pectinase on the membrane can enhance its performance in juice processing. This review delineates the importance of physicochemical and kinematic properties of pectinases relating to the juice processing parameters. It also includes the influence of metal-ion cofactors on enzymes' activity. Considering the support and catalytic-separation facets of the membrane, the prediction of the membrane as support for pectinase immobilization has also been carried out.

Abstract
Pectinases are widely used in a variety of industrial processes. However, their application is limited by low catalytic processivity, reduced stability, high cost, and poor re-use compatibility. These drawbacks may be overcome by enzyme immobilization with ferromagnetic nanoparticles, which are easily recovered by a magnetic field. In this work, an endopolygalacturonase from Chondrostereum purpureum (EndoPGCp) expressed in Pichia pastoris was immobilized on glutaraldehyde-activated chitosan ferromagnetic nanoparticles (EndoPGCp-MNP) and used to supplement a commercial enzyme cocktail. No significant differences in biochemical and kinetic properties were observed between EndoPGCp-MNP and EndoPGCp, although the EndoPGCp-MNP showed slightly increased thermostability. Cocktail supplementation with EndoPGCp-MNP increased reducing sugar release from orange wastes by 1.8-fold and showed a synergistic effect as compared to the free enzyme. Furthermore, EndoPGCp-MNP retained 65% of the initial activity after 7 cycles of re-use. These properties suggest that EndoPGCp-MNP may find applications in the processing of pectin-rich agroindustrial residues.

Abstract
Pectin, the major non-cellulosic component of primary cell wall can be degraded by polygalacturonases (PGs) and pectin methylesterases (PMEs) during pathogen attack on plants. We characterized two novel enzymes, VdPG2 and VdPME1, from the fungal plant pathogen Verticillium dahliae. VdPME1 was most active on citrus methylesterified pectin (55-70%) at pH 6 and a temperature of 40 °C, while VdPG2 was most active on polygalacturonic acid at pH 5 and a temperature of 50 °C. Using LC-MS/MS oligoprofiling, and various pectins, the mode of action of VdPME1 and VdPG2 were determined. VdPME1 was shown to be processive, in accordance with the electrostatic potential of the enzyme. VdPG2 was identified as endo-PG releasing both methylesterified and non-methylesterified oligogalacturonides (OGs). Additionally, when flax roots were used as substrate, acetylated OGs were detected. The comparisons of OGs released from Verticillium-susceptible and partially resistant flax cultivars identified new possible elicitor of plant defence responses.
