Abstract
l-threonine dehydrogenase (Tdh) is an enzyme that links threonine metabolism to epigenetic modifications and mitochondria biogenesis. In vitro studies show that it is critical for the regulation of trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) levels and cell fate determination of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). However, whether Tdh regulates a developmental process in vivo and, if it does, whether it also primarily regulates H3K4me3 levels in this process as it does in mESCs, remains elusive. Here, we revealed that, in zebrafish hematopoiesis, tdh is preferentially expressed in neutrophils. Knockout of tdh causes a decrease in neutrophil number and slightly suppresses their acute injury-induced migration, but, unlike the mESCs, the level of H3K4me3 is not evidently reduced in neutrophils sorted from the kidney marrow of adult tdh-null zebrafish. These phenotypes are dependent on the enzymatic activity of Tdh. Importantly, a soluble supplement of nutrients that are able to fuel the acetyl-CoA pool, such as pyruvate, glucose and branched-chain amino acids, is sufficient to rescue the reduction in neutrophils caused by tdh deletion. In summary, our study presents evidence for the functional requirement of Tdh-mediated threonine metabolism in a developmental process in vivo. It also provides an animal model for investigating the nutritional regulation of myelopoiesis and immune response, as well as a useful tool for high-throughput drug/nutrition screening.

Abstract
Consensus design (CD) is a representative sequence-based protein design method that enables the design of highly functional proteins by analyzing vast amounts of protein sequence data. This study proposes a partial consensus design (PCD) of a protein as a derivative approach of CD. The method replaces the target protein sequence with a consensus sequence in a secondary-structure-dependent manner (i.e., regionally dependent and divided into α-helix, β-sheet, and loop regions). In this study, we generated several artificial partial consensus l-threonine 3-dehydrogenases (PcTDHs) by PCD using the TDH from Cupriavidus necator (CnTDH) as a target protein. Structural and functional analysis of PcTDHs suggested that thermostability would be independently improved when consensus mutations are introduced into the loop region of TDHs. On the other hand, enzyme kinetic parameters (kcat/Km) and average productivity would be synergistically enhanced by changing the combination of the mutations-replacement of one region of CnTDH with a consensus sequence provided only negative effects, but the negative effects were nullified when the two regions were replaced simultaneously. Taken together, we propose the hypothesis that there are protein regions that encode individual protein properties, such as thermostability and activity, and that the introduction of consensus mutations into these regions could additively or synergistically modify their functions.

Abstract
2,5-Dimethylpyrazine (2,5-DMP) is an important pharmaceutical intermediate and an important essence. Conventional chemical synthesis methods are often accompanied by toxic substances as by-products, and the biosynthesis efficiency of 2,5-DMP is insufficient for industrial applications. In this study, the tdh and soaao genes were overexpressed to enhance enzymatic and nonenzymatic reactions in metabolic pathways, and kbl was knocked out to block competitive branching carbon flow metabolic pathways. Finally, a genetically engineered Escherichia coli strain with the highest carbon recovery rate (30.18%) and the highest yield reported to date was successfully constructed, and 9.21 g·L-1 threonine was able to produce 1682 mg·L-1 2,5-DMP after 24 h. At the same time, an expression regulation strategy and whole-cell biocatalysis helped to eliminate the damage to cells caused by 2,5-DMP, aminoacetone, and reactive oxygen species generated by aminoacetone oxidase from S. oligofermentans, and the negative effect of 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate CoA ligase on the yield of 2,5-DMP in E. coli was also demonstrated.

Abstract
Exponentially increasing protein sequence data enables artificial enzyme design using sequence-based protein design methods, including full-consensus protein design (FCD). The success of artificial enzyme design is strongly dependent on the nature of the sequences used. Hence, sequences must be selected from databases and curated libraries prepared to enable a successful design by FCD. In this study, we proposed a selection approach regarding several key residues as sequence motifs. We used l-threonine 3-dehydrogenase (TDH) as a model to test the validity of this approach. In the classification, four residues (143, 174, 188, and 214) were used as key residues. We classified thousands of TDH homologous sequences into five groups containing hundreds of sequences. Utilizing sequences in the libraries, we designed five artificial TDHs by FCD. Among the five, we successfully expressed four in soluble form. Biochemical analysis of artificial TDHs indicated that their enzymatic properties vary; half of the maximum measured enzyme activity (t1/2) and activation energies were distributed from 53 to 65 °C and from 38 to 125 kJ/mol, respectively. The artificial TDHs had unique kinetic parameters, distinct from one another. Structural analysis indicates that consensus mutations are mainly introduced in the secondary or outer shell. The functional diversity of the artificial TDHs is due to the accumulation of mutations that affect their physicochemical properties. Taken together, our findings indicate that our proposed approach can help generate artificial enzymes with unique enzymatic properties.

Abstract
2,5-Dimethylpyrazine (2,5-DMP) is an indispensable additive for flavoring in the food industry and an important substrate for producing hypoglycemic and antilipolytic drugs. However, 2,5-DMP is produced by chemical synthesis in industry. Herein, a "green" strategy to produce 2,5-DMP has been reported for the first time. To do this, we rewrote the de novo 2,5-DMP biosynthesis pathway and substrate transmembrane transport in an l-threonine high-yielding strain to promote highly efficient 2,5-DMP production from glucose by submerged fermentation. The final strain T6-47-7 could produce 1.43 ± 0.07 g/L of 2,5-DMP with a carbon yield of 6.78% and productivity of 0.715 g/(L·d) in shake-flask fermentation using a phase-wise manner of hypoxia-inducible expression. The design-based strategy for constructing the 2,5-DMP high-yielding strain reported here could serve as a general concept for breeding high-yielding strains that produce some other type of alkylpyrazine.

Abstract
Two of the world's most neglected tropical diseases, human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) and Chagas disease, are caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Trypanosoma. These organisms possess specialized metabolic pathways, frequently distinct from those in humans, which have potential to be exploited as novel drug targets. This study elucidates the structure and function of L-threonine-3-dehydrogenase (TDH) from T. brucei, the causative pathogen of HAT. TDH is a key enzyme in the metabolism of L-threonine, and an inhibitor of TDH has been shown to have trypanocidal activity in the procyclic form of T. brucei. TDH is a nonfunctional pseudogene in humans, suggesting that it may be possible to rationally design safe and specific therapies for trypanosomiasis by targeting this parasite enzyme. As an initial step, the TDH gene from T. brucei was expressed and the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme was solved by X-ray crystallography. In multiple crystallographic structures, T. brucei TDH is revealed to be a dimeric short-chain dehydrogenase that displays a considerable degree of conformational variation in its ligand-binding regions. Geometric simulations of the structure have provided insight into the dynamic behaviour of this enzyme. Furthermore, structures of TDH bound to its natural substrates and known inhibitors have been determined, giving an indication of the mechanism of catalysis of the enzyme. Collectively, these results provide vital details for future drug design to target TDH or related enzymes.

Abstract
The expansion of protein sequence databases has enabled us to design artificial proteins by sequence-based design methods, such as full-consensus design (FCD) and ancestral-sequence reconstruction (ASR). Artificial proteins with enhanced activity levels compared with native ones can potentially be generated by such methods, but successful design is rare because preparing a sequence library by curating the database and selecting a method is difficult. Utilizing a curated library prepared by reducing conservation energies, we successfully designed two artificial l-threonine 3-dehydrogenases (SDR-TDH) with higher activity levels than native SDR-TDH, FcTDH-N1, and AncTDH, using FCD and ASR, respectively. The artificial SDR-TDHs had excellent thermal stability and NAD+ recognition compared to native SDR-TDH from Cupriavidus necator (CnTDH); the melting temperatures of FcTDH-N1 and AncTDH were about 10 and 5 °C higher than that of CnTDH, respectively, and the dissociation constants toward NAD+ of FcTDH-N1 and AncTDH were 2- and 7-fold lower than that of CnTDH, respectively. Enzymatic efficiency of the artificial SDR-TDHs were comparable to that of CnTDH. Crystal structures of FcTDH-N1 and AncTDH were determined at 2.8 and 2.1 Å resolution, respectively. Structural and MD simulation analysis of the SDR-TDHs indicated that only the flexibility at specific regions was changed, suggesting that multiple mutations introduced in the artificial SDR-TDHs altered their flexibility and thereby affected their enzymatic properties. Benchmark analysis of the SDR-TDHs indicated that both FCD and ASR can generate highly functional proteins if a curated library is prepared appropriately.
