Pilot market surveillance of GMM contaminations in alpha-amylase food enzyme products: A detection strategy strengthened by a newly developed qPCR method targeting a GM Bacillus licheniformis producing alpha-amylase. FOOD CHEMISTRY. MOLECULAR SCIENCES 2024; 8:100186. [PMID: 38179151 PMCID: PMC10762378 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochms.2023.100186] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 12/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
Using high-throughput metagenomics on commercial microbial fermentation products, DNA from a new unauthorized genetically modified microorganism (GMM), namely the GM B. licheniformis strain producing alpha-amylase (GMM alpha-amylase2), was recently discovered and characterized. On this basis, a new qPCR method targeting an unnatural association of sequences specific to the GMM alpha-amylase2 strain was designed and developed in this study, allowing to strengthen the current GMM detection strategy. The performance of the newly developed qPCR method was assessed for its specificity and sensitivity to comply with the minimum performance requirements established by the European Network of GMO Laboratories for GMO analysis. Moreover, the transferability of the in house validated qPCR method was demonstrated. Finally, its applicability was confirmed by a pilot market surveillance of GMM contaminations conducted for the first time on 40 alpha-amylase food enzyme products labelled as containing alpha-amylase. This pilot market surveillance allowed also to highlight numerous contaminations with GMM alpha-amylase2, including frequent cross-contaminations with other GMM strains previously characterized. In addition, the presence of full-length AMR genes, raising health concerns, was also reported.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aureobasidium pullulans is a generalist polyextremotolerant black yeast fungus. It tolerates temperatures below 0 °C or salt concentrations up to 18%, among other stresses. A. pullulans genome sequencing revealed a high potential for producing bioactive metabolites. Only few molecular tools exist to edit the genome of A. pullulans, hence it is important to make full use of its potential. Two CRISPR/Cas9 methods have been proposed for the protoplast-based transformation of A. pullulans. These methods require the integration of a marker gene into the locus of the gene to be deleted, when the deletion of this gene does not yield a selectable phenotype. We present the adaptation of a plasmid-based CRISPR/Cas9 system developed in Aspergillus niger for A. pullulans to create deletion strains. RESULTS The A. niger CRISPR/Cas9 plasmid led to efficient genomic deletions in A. pullulans. In this study, strains with deletions ranging from 30 to 862 bp were obtained by using an AMA1 plasmid-based genome editing strategy. CONCLUSION The CRISPR/Cas9 transformation system presented in this study provides new opportunities for strain engineering of A. pullulans. This system allows expression of Cas9 and antibiotic resistance while being easy to adapt. This strategy could open the path to intensive genomic engineering in A. pullulans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antibiotic-based plasmid selection and maintenance is a core tool in molecular biology; however, while convenient, this strategy has numerous drawbacks for biological manufacturing. Overuse of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) contributes to the development of antimicrobial resistance, which is a growing threat to modern medicine. Antibiotics themselves are costly and therefore often omitted in fermentations, leading to plasmid loss and a corresponding loss in product yield. Furthermore, constitutive expression of a plasmid-encoded antibiotic resistance gene imposes a significant metabolic burden on the cells. For many fermentation products (e.g., in nutrition and medicine), the use of antibiotic resistance genes is subject to strict regulations and should be avoided. We present a method for plasmid selection and maintenance with stringent selection pressure that is independent of antibiotics and ARG. Furthermore, it can be used without any restrictions regarding culture medium and temperature. RESULTS The developed method involves modification of a bacterial strain such that an essential gene is expressed genomically under the control of an inducible promoter. A copy of the same essential gene with the endogenous promoter is supplied on a plasmid for selection. In the absence of the inducer for the genomic copy of the essential gene, cells rely on expression of the plasmid-encoded gene copy, leading to tight selection for plasmid maintenance. Induction of the genomic copy of the essential gene enables the engineered strain to be propagated in the absence of a plasmid. Here, we describe the genetic setup and demonstrate long-term, tight selection for plasmid maintenance with a variety of different plasmids and E. coli strains. CONCLUSIONS This method facilitates plasmid-based fermentations by eliminating the need for antibiotic selection and improving plasmid maintenance.

Abstract
The commercialization of industrial genetically modified microorganisms (GMMs) has highlighted their impact on public health and the environment. Rapid and effective monitoring methods detecting live GMMs are essential to enhance current safety management protocols. This study aims to develop a novel cell-direct quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) method targeting two antibiotic-resistant genes, KmR and nptII, conferring resistance against kanamycin and neomycin, along with propidium monoazide, to precisely detect viable Escherichia coli. The E. coli single-copy taxon-specific gene of D-1-deoxyxylulose 5-phosphate synthase (dxs) was used as the internal control. The qPCR assays demonstrated good performance, with dual-plex primer/probe combinations exhibiting specificity, absence of matrix effects, linear dynamic ranges with acceptable amplification efficiencies, and repeatability for DNA, cells, and PMA-treated cells targeting KmR/dxs and nptII/dxs. Following the PMA-qPCR assays, the viable cell counts for KmR-resistant and nptII-resistant E. coli strains exhibited a bias% of 24.09% and 0.49%, respectively, which were within the acceptable limit of ±25%, as specified by the European Network of GMO Laboratories. This method successfully established detection limits of 69 and 67 viable genetically modified E. coli cells targeting KmR and nptII, respectively. This provides a feasible monitoring approach as an alternative to DNA processing techniques to detect viable GMMs.

Abstract
Genetically modified microorganisms (GMM) are frequently employed for manufacturing microbial fermentation products such as food enzymes or vitamins. Although the fermentation product is required to be pure, GMM contaminations have repeatedly been reported in numerous commercial microbial fermentation produce types, leading to several rapid alerts at the European level. The aim of this study was to investigate the added value of shotgun metagenomic high-throughput sequencing to confirm and extend the results of classical analysis methods for the genomic characterization of unauthorized GMM. By combining short- and long-read metagenomic sequencing, two transgenic constructs were characterized, with insertions of alpha-amylase genes originating from B. amyloliquefaciens and B. licheniformis, respectively, and a transgenic construct with a protease gene insertion originating from B. velezensis, which were all present in all four investigated samples. Additionally, the samples were contaminated with up to three unculturable Bacillus strains, carrying genetic modifications that may hamper their ability to sporulate. Moreover, several samples contained viable Bacillus strains. Altogether these contaminations constitute a considerable load of antimicrobial resistance genes, that may represent a potential public health risk. In conclusion, our study showcases the added value of metagenomics to investigate the quality and safety of complex commercial microbial fermentation products.

Abstract
Most of the bacteria that are used to produce fermentation products, such as enzymes, additives and flavorings, belong to the Bacillus subtilis group. Recently, unexpected contaminations with unauthorized genetically modified (GM) bacteria (viable cells and associated DNA) that were carrying antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes was noticed in several microbial fermentation products that have been commercialized on the food and feed market. These contaminations consisted of GM Bacillus species belonging to the B. subtilis group. In order to screen for the potential presence of such contaminations, in this study we have developed a new real-time PCR method targeting the B. subtilis group, including B. subtilis, B. licheniformis, B. amyloliquefaciens and B. velezensis. The method’s performance was successfully assessed as specific and sensitive, complying with the Minimum Performance Requirements for Analytical Methods of GMO Testing that is used as a standard by the GMO enforcement laboratories. The method’s applicability was also tested on 25 commercial microbial fermentation products. In addition, this method was developed to be compatible with the PCR-based strategy that was recently developed for the detection of unauthorized GM bacteria. This taxon-specific method allows the strengthening of the set of screening markers that are targeting key sequences that are frequently found in GM bacteria (AMR genes and shuttle vector), reinforcing control over the food and feed chain in order to guarantee its safety and traceability.

Abstract
Microbial transglutaminase (mTG) is a heavily used food additive and its industrial transamidated complexes usage is rising rapidly. It was classified as a processing aid and was granted the GRAS (generally recognized as safe) definition, thus escaping full and thorough toxic and safety evaluations. Despite the manufacturers claims, mTG or its cross-linked compounds are immunogenic, pathogenic, proinflammatory, allergenic and toxic, and pose a risk to public health. The enzyme is a member of the transglutaminase family and imitates the posttranslational modification of gluten, by the tissue transglutaminase, which is the autoantigen of celiac disease. The deamidated and transamidated gliadin peptides lose their tolerance and induce the gluten enteropathy. Microbial transglutaminase and its complexes increase intestinal permeability, suppresses enteric protective pathways, enhances microbial growth and gliadin peptide's epithelial uptake and can transcytose intra-enterocytically to face the sub-epithelial immune cells. The present review updates on the potentially detrimental side effects of mTG, aiming to interest the scientific community, induce food regulatory authorities' debates on its safety, and protect the public from the mTG unwanted effects.

Abstract
A PCR-based DNA walking analysis was performed on a protease product suspected to contain a new unauthorized genetically modified microorganism (GMM). Though the characterization of unnatural associations of sequences between the pUB110 shuttle vector and a Bacillus amyloliquefaciens gene coding for a protease, the presence of the GMM was shown. Based on these sequences of interest, a real-time PCR marker was developed to target specifically the newly discovered GMM, namely GMM protease2. The performance of the real-time PCR marker was assessed in terms of specificity and sensitivity. The applicability of the real-time PCR GMM protease2 marker was also demonstrated on microbial fermentation products. To confirm its use by other GMO enforcement laboratories, the transferability of the in-house validated real-time PCR marker was demonstrated by assays performed by an external laboratory.

Abstract
AbstractUsing a recently developed genetically modified microorganisms (GMM) detection strategy, unexpected contaminations of unauthorized GMM in commercialized microbial fermentation products have been reported. A first-line real-time PCR screening analysis was initially performed to determine the presence of key targets frequently found in genetically modified (GM) bacteria. A second-line real-time PCR analysis was subsequently applied to identify specific GMM, including to date a GM Bacillus velezensis producing protease and a GM B. subtilis producing vitamin B2. In this study, an additional real-time PCR method specific to a newly identified GMM producing alpha-amylase was developed to be integrated in such second-line real-time PCR analysis, allowing to strengthen the GMM detection strategy. This method was successfully validated based on the assessment of its specificity and sensitivity performance. In addition, its applicability was confirmed using several food enzyme products commercialized on the market. Finally, via its transfer to an external laboratory, the transferability of the in-house validated method was positively evaluated, allowing its easy implementation in enforcement laboratories.

Abstract
Recently, unexpected contaminations of unauthorized genetically modified microorganisms (GMM) carrying antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes were reported in microbial fermentation products commercialized on the food and feed chain. To guarantee the traceability and safety of the food and feed chain, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has played a key role to prove GMM contaminations via the characterization of unnatural associations of sequences. However, WGS requires a prior microbial isolation of the GMM strain, which can be difficult to successfully achieve. Therefore, in order to avoid such bottleneck, a culture-independent approach was proposed in this study. First, the screening for the aadD gene, an AMR gene conferring a resistance to kanamycin, and for the pUB110 shuttle vector, carrying the aadD gene and commonly used to produce GMM, is performed. In case of a positive signal, DNA walking methods anchored on the two borders of the detected pUB110 shuttle vector are applied to characterize unknown flanking regions. Following to the sequencing of the generated amplicons, unnatural associations of sequences can be identified, allowing to demonstrate the presence of unauthorized GMM. The developed culture-independent strategy was successfully applied on commercialized microbial fermentation products, allowing to prove the presence of GMM contaminations in the food and feed chain.
