Yu S, Li Q, Wang Z, Zhao W. Innovative application of a novel and thermostable inulin fructotransferase from Arthrobacter sp. ISL-85 to fructan inulin in burdock root to improve nutrition. Food Chem 2024; 441:138336. [PMID: 38183723 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138336] [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: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2024]
Abstract
Inulin fructotransferase converts prebiotic polysaccharide inulin to difructose anhydride III, known for its numerous beneficial physiological effects. While previous studies focused on using inulin extracts under optimal conditions, this study delves into the enzyme's behavior when dealing with more complex food materials, inulin-rich burdock root, which possesses greater nutritional value but may influence the enzymatic reaction. An inulin fructotransferase from Arthrobacter sp. ISL-85 was identified and characterized, which has the highest activity of 783 U mg-1 at pH 6.5 and 65 °C and remains stable even up to 80 °C. When applied to inulin-rich burdock root (pH 4.7) at 80 °C for 2 h, the enzyme yielded 4.1 g of difructose anhydride III, concurrently increasing fructo-oligosaccharides. This study demonstrates the potential of this enzyme as a valuable tool for efficiently processing inulin within whole food materials under high temperatures. Such an approach could pave the way for enhancing nutrition and promoting health benefits.

Abstract
Vegetables, cereals and fruit are foods rich in fibre with beneficial and nutritional effects as their consumption reduces the onset of degenerative diseases, especially cardiovascular ones. Among fibres, inulin, oligofructose or fructooligosaccharide (FOS) are the best-studied. Inulin is a generic term to cover all linear β(2-1) fructans, with a variable degree of polymerization. In this review a better understanding of the importance of the degree of polymerization of inulin as a dietary fibre, functions, health benefits, classifications, types and its applications in the food industry was considered in different fortified foods. Inulin has been used to increase the nutritional and healthy properties of the product as a sweetener and as a substitute for fats and carbohydrates, improving the nutritional value and decreasing the glycemic index, with the advantage of not compromising taste and consistency of the product. Bifidogenic and prebiotic effects of inulin have been well established, inulin-type fructans are fermented by the colon to produce short-chain fatty acids, with important local and systemic actions. Addition of inulin with different degrees of polymerization to daily foods for the production of fortified pasta and bread was reviewed, and the impact on sensorial, technological and organoleptic characteristics even of gluten-free bread was also reported.

Abstract
This study aimed to produce enzymes (beta (β)-mannanase using a recombinant Aspergillus sojae AsT3 and inulinase using Aspergillus niger A42) and oligosaccharides (mannooligosaccharides (MOS), fructooligosaccharides (FOS)) using coffee waste, ground coffee, and coffee extract by solid-state fermentation (SSF). Plackett-Burman Design (PBD) was used to create a design for enzyme production with four different parameters (temperature, pH, solid-to-liquid ratio (SLR), and mix with coffee wastes and ground coffee). The highest β-mannanase and inulinase activities were 71.17 and 564.07 U/mg of protein respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the temperature was statistically significant for the production of both enzymes (P < 0.05). The produced enzymes were utilized in French Pressed coffee extracts to produce oligosaccharides. As a result of the enzymatic hydrolyzation, the highest mannobiose, mannotriose, mannotetraose, and total MOS levels were 109.66, 101.11, 391.02, and 600.64 ppm, respectively. For the FOS production, the maximal 1,1,1-kestopentaose was 38.34 ppm. Consequently, this study demonstrates that a recombinant Aspergillus sojae AsT3 β-mannanase and Aspergillus niger A42 inulinase produced from coffee wastes and ground coffee can be used in coffee extracts to increase the amount of oligosaccharides in coffee extracts.

Abstract
The studies have revealed alkaline exoinulinase produced by haloalkaliphilic phototrophic bacteria Ectothiorhodospirea mobilis Al-2 for the first time. A new method for the isolation of a homogeneous exoinulinase from the culture broth was developed and the properties of this enzyme have been investigated. It was shown that specified exoinulinase in contrast to the studied exoinulinases produced by microorganisms exhibits catalytic activity at the wide range of pH (7.0-10) and a temperature (20-60 °C) with a maximum of the inulolitic activity at pH 9.0 and 50 °C. The studied exoinulinase possessing also invertase activity (I/S1.4) is a monomeric protein with molecular mass 57Kda, as well as Km and Vmax for inulin 3.8 mM/ml and 10 µmol/ml/min-1, respectively. The studies of the influence of different metal ions on enzyme activity have shown that Mn+2, Cu+2, Co+2, Mg+2, NaCl 5-7% promote relatively higher catalytic activity while Zn+2, Cu+2 and Fe+2 partially suppress the enzyme activity and Hg2+completely inactivates the enzyme.The formation of only fructose and glucose at the enzymatic hydrolysis of inulin confirms that the studied exoinulinase belongs to the exo-type of enzymes. The obtained results supplement our fundamental knowledge in biochemistry-enzymology, as well as the biodiversity of microorganisms expressing exoinulinase. The studied exoinulinase exhibits activity at salinity of the medium and can potentially be used in the biotechnology of inulin bioconversion into bioproducts under alkaline conditions.

Abstract
Fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAPs) have emerged as key contributors to digestive discomfort and intolerance to certain vegetables, fruits, and plant-based foods. Although strategies exist to minimize FODMAP consumption and exposure, exogenous enzyme supplementation targeting the fructan-type FODMAPs has been underexploited. The objective of this study was to test the hydrolytic efficacy of a food-grade, non-genetically engineered microbial inulinase preparation toward inulin-type fructans in the INFOGEST in vitro static simulation of gastrointestinal (GI) digestion. Purified inulin was shown to undergo acid-mediated hydrolysis at high gastric acidity as well as predominantly inulinase-mediated hydrolysis at lower gastric acidity. Inulinase dose-response simulations of inulin, garlic, and high-fructan meal digestion in the gastric phase suggest that as little as 50 inulinase units (INU) and up to 800 INU per serving promote fructan hydrolysis better than the control simulations without inulinase. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) profiling of fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) in the gastric digestas following inulinase treatment confirms the fructolytic activity of inulinase under simulated digestive conditions. Altogether, these in vitro digestion data support the use of microbial inulinase as an exogenous enzyme supplement for reducing dietary fructan-type FODMAP exposure.

Abstract
Carbohydrates such as fructans can be involved in priming or defence stimulation, and hence potentially provide new strategies for crop protection against biotic stress. Chicory (Cichorium intybus) is a model plant for fructan research and is a crop with many known health benefits. Using the chicory-Botrytis cinerea pathosystem, we tested the effectiveness of fructan-induced immunity, focussing on different plant and microbial fructans. Sugar dynamics were followed after priming and subsequent pathogen infection. Our results indicated that many higher plants might detect extracellular levan oligosaccharides (LOS) of microbial origin, while chicory also detects extracellular small inulin-type fructooligosaccharides (FOS) of endogenous origin, thus differing from the findings of previous fructan priming studies. No clear positive effects were observed for inulin or mixed-type fructans. An elicitor-specific burst of reactive oxygen species was observed for sulfated LOS, while FOS and LOS both behaved as genuine priming agents. In addition, a direct antifungal effect was observed for sulfated LOS. Intriguingly, LOS priming led to a temporary increase in apoplastic sugar concentrations, mainly glucose, which could trigger downstream responses. Total sugar and starch contents in total extracts of LOS-primed leaves were higher after leaf detachment, indicating they could maintain their metabolic activity. Our results indicate the importance of balancing intra- and extracellular sugar levels (osmotic balance) in the context of 'sweet immunity' pathways.

Abstract
Inulin can be hydrolyzed by inulinases to yield inulo-oligosaccharides (IOSs), which have great application potential in the food and nutraceutical industries. However, conventional enzymatic production of IOSs is limited by long hydrolysis times and poor thermo-stability of inulinases. Here, the self-assembling protein scaffold EutM was engineered to co-immobilize exo-inulinase (EXINU) and endo-inulinase (ENINU) for synergistic hydrolysis of inulin to produce IOSs with 3 to 5 monosaccharide units (DP3-5 IOSs). The immobilization of EXINU/ENINU onto the EutM scaffold resulted in an increase of catalytic efficiency, a 65% increase of the Vmax of ENINU, as well as an increase of thermo-stability, with 4.26-fold higher residual activity of EXINU after 22 h-incubation at 50 °C. After optimization, two efficient production protocols were obtained, in which the yield and productivity of DP3-5 IOSs reached 80.38% and 70.86 g·(L·h)-1, respectively, which were at a high level in similar studies. Overall, this study provides an attractive self-assembling protein platform for the co-immobilization of inulinases, as well as optimized bioprocesses with great promise for the industrial production of DP3-5 IOSs.

Abstract
Current work describes the enhancement of immobilization efficacy of Aspergillus tritici endoinulinase onto halloysite nanoclay using crosslinker glutaraldehyde. Under statistical optimized immobilization conditions, viz. glutaraldehyde 1.50% (v/v), enzyme coupling-time 2.20 h, glutaraldehyde activation-time 1.00 h and endoinulinase load 50 IU, maximum activity yield (65.77%) and immobilization yield (82.45%) was obtained. An enhancement of 1.15- and 1.23-fold in both enzyme activity yield and immobilization yield of endoinulinase was observed, when compared with APTES-functionalized halloysite nanoclay immobilized endoinulinase. Immobilized biocatalyst showed maximum activity at pH 5.0 and temperature 60 °C with broad pH (4.0-8.5) and temperature (50-75 °C) stability. Further, optimal hydrolytic conditions (inulin concentration 8.0%; endoinulinase load 80 IU; agitation 125 rpm and hydrolysis-time 13 h) supported fructooligosaccharides yield (95.44%) in a batch system. HPTLC studies blueprint confirmed 95.44% fructooligosaccharides containing 35.41% kestose, 26.19% nystose and 9.69% fructofuranosylnystose. The developed immobilized biocatalyst shown good stability of 8 cycles for inulin hydrolysis.

Abstract
Biofuels are considered as a pre-eminent alternate to fossil fuels to meet the demand of future energy supply in a sustainable manner. Conventionally, they are produced from lignocellulosic raw materials. Saccharification of lignocellulosic raw materials for bioethanol production is a cumbersome process as compared to inulin-rich feedstocks. Various inulin-rich feedstocks, viz. jerusalem artichoke, chicory, dahlia, asparagus sp., etc. has also been exploited for the production of biofuels, viz. bioethanol, acetone, butanol, etc. The ubiquitous availability of inulin-rich feedstocks and presence of large amount of inulin makes them a robust substrate for biofuels production. Different strategies, viz. separate hydrolysis and fermentation, simultaneous saccharification and fermentation and consolidated bioprocessing have been explored for the conversion of inulin-rich feedstocks into biofuels. These bioprocess strategies are simple and efficient. The present review elaborates the prospective of inulin-rich feedstocks for biofuels production. Bioprocess strategies exploited for the conversion of inulin-rich feedstocks have also been highlighted.

Abstract
The current commercial plastic manufactures have been produced using petroleum-based resource. However, due to concerns over the resource depletion and the environmental sustainability, bioresource-based manufacturing processes have been developed to cope against these concerns. Bioresource-derived 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) can be utilized as a building block material for plastic manufactures. To date, numerous technologies have been developed for the production of FDCA using various types of bio-based feedstocks such as hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), 6-C sugars, and polysaccharides. The commercial companies produce FDCA using HMF-based production processes due to their high production efficiency, but the high price of HMF is a problem bottleneck. Our review affords important information on breakthrough approaches for the cost-efficient and sustainable production of FDCA using raw plant feedstocks rich in inulin. These approaches include bioprocessing technology based on the direct use of raw plant feedstocks and biomodification of the target plant sources. For the former, an ionic liquid-based processing system is proposed for efficient pretreatment of raw plant feedstocks. For the latter, the genes encoding the key enzymes; sucrose:sucrose 1-fructoyltransferase (1-SST), fructan:fructan 1-fryuctosyltransferase (1-FFT), fructan 1-exohydrolase (1-FEH), and microbe-derived endoinulinase, are introduced for biomodification conducive to facilitating bioprocess and improving inulin content. These approaches would contribute to cost-efficiently and sustainably producing bio-based FDCA.

Abstract
Inulin, a polydisperse fructan found as a common storage polysaccharide in the roots of several plants, represents a renewable non-food biomass resource for the synthesis of bio-based products. Exploitation of inulin-containing feedstocks requires the integration of different processes, including inulinase production, saccharification of inulin, and microbial fermentation for the conversion of released sugars into added-value products. In this work paper, a new microbial source of inulinase, Penicillium lanosocoeruleum, was identified through the screening of a fungal library. Inulinase production using inulin as C-source was optimized, reaching up to 28 U mL-1 at the 4th day of growth. The fungal inulinase mixture (PlaI) was characterized for pH and temperature stability and activity profile, and its isoenzymes composition was investigated by proteomic strategies. Statistical optimization of inulin hydrolysis was performed using a central composite rotatable design (CCRD), by analyzing the effect of four factors. In the optimized conditions (T, 45.5°C; pH, 5.1; substrate concentration, 60 g L-1; enzyme loading, 50 U gsubstrate -1), up to 96% inulin is converted in fructose within 20 h. The integration of PlaI in a process for polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production by Cupriavidus necator from inulin was tested in both separated hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). A maximum of 3.2 g L-1 of PHB accumulation, corresponding to 82% polymer content, was achieved in the SSF. The proved efficiency in inulin hydrolysis and its effective integration into a SSF process pave the way to a profitable exploitation of the PlaI enzymatic mixture in inulin-based biorefineries.

Abstract
The objective of present research was to develop an easy, precise and accurate HPTLC densitometry method for quantification of fructooligosaccharides (FOSs) from inulin hydrolysate. The chromatographic separation of FOSs was performed on pre-coated silica gel (60, F254) TLC plates using a mobile phase (butanol:ethanol:water, 60:24:16), and densitometry evaluation of FOSs was performed at A500. Both kestose and nystose were successfully resolved with Rf value of 0.43 and 0.34, respectively. The accuracy, reliability and reproducibility of developed method was assessed by percent relative standard deviation of kestose and nystose for instrument precision (1.43% and 1.50%), repeatability (1.48% and 1.56%), intra-day precision (1.60% and 1.63%), inter-day precision (1.62% and 1.66%), limit of detection (4.58 ng/spot and 4.58 ng/spot), limit of quantification (13.87 ng/spot and 13.89 ng/spot) and recovery (98.81% and 98.69%). Moreover, overlapping spectra of test sample with standard confirms the specificity of developed method, which was validated as per ICH guidelines.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2021; 8:626861. [PMID: 33553130 PMCID: PMC7855583 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2020.626861] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2020] [Accepted: 12/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Freshly harvested Jerusalem artichoke tubers contain inulinase, an enzyme that requires inactivation, because of its ability to hydrolysis inulin into fructose, which can be consumed by microorganism during marination. As the traditional pickling process takes 6 months, and involves the addition of a large amount of salt (18-20%), this production strategy is uneconomical and increases the nitrite intake. Additionally, miscellaneous bacteria produced during pickling affect the product taste. In this study, the enzyme inactivation effects of NaCl, NaHCO3, and ultrasound were evaluated. NaHCO3 treatment results in the highest degree of enzyme inactivation; however, the quality and flavor of the obtained Jerusalem artichoke pickles were not ideal. The Jerusalem artichoke pickles in which the enzymes were inactivated using a combination of NaCl and ultrasound exhibited better flavor than those exposed to NaHCO3; further, this combination reduced the inulinase activity of the Jerusalem artichokes to 2.50 U/mL, and maintained the inulin content at 61.22%. The strains LS3 and YS2, identified as Enterococcus faecalis and the salt-tolerant yeast Meyerozyma guilliermondii, respectively, were the dominant microorganisms isolated from the pickle juice. Jerusalem artichokes with inactivated inulinase were pickled with microbial powder, separated, purified, and dried to remove the natural Jerusalem artichoke sauce. This process shortened the fermentation cycle and improved product quality.

Abstract
Statistical optimization of hydrolytic conditions for the production of fructooligosaccharides (FOSs) from pure inulin using Aspergillus tritici endoinulinase was carried out in a batch system. FOSs yield 99.19% was obtained under the optimized hydrolytic conditions i.e. inulin concentration (7.3%), enzyme load (65 IU), hydrolysis time (13 h) and agitation (100 rpm). The closeness of value of co-efficient of determination (R2) to 1, good agreement between model's predicted and experimental values, low percentage error (<5%), high adequate precision (>4%) and F value (11,634.32), and low Lack of fit (0.60) of the designed model authenticates its fitness. High substrate concentration, low enzyme load and short hydrolysis span justifies efficiency of developed process for the preparation of FOSs from inulin using fungal endoinulinase. TLC chromatographic and densitometry studies confirmed the synthesis of short-chain length FOSs. FOSs preparation contained 33.85% GF2 (ketose), 24.50% GF3 (nystose), 7.26% GF4 (fructofuranosylnystose) and 33.58% FOSs of DP5-9.
