[PMID: 38798797 PMCID: PMC11127159 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Probiotic Bacillus strains can solve the problems of single flavor and long fermentation time of fermented products caused by the lack of certain functional genes and insufficient metabolism ability of fermenter strains (Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium) at the present stage. There is a lack of systematic evaluation and review of probiotic Bacillus as food fermentation agents. In this paper, it is observed that probiotic Bacillus strains are involved to varying degrees in liquid-state, semi-solid state, and solid-state fermentation and are widely present in solid-state fermented foods. Probiotic Bacillus strains not only produce abundant proteases and lipases, but also effective antifungal lipopeptides and extracellular polymers, thus enhancing the flavor, nutritional value and safety of fermented foods. Bacillus with probiotic qualities is an underutilized group of probiotic food fermentation agents, which give a potential for the development of fermentation technology in the food business and the integration of ancient traditional fermentation techniques.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) with potent anti-listerial activity were characterized from a novel marine Bacillus velezensis FTL7. A Box-Behnken statistical experimental design was used to study the combined impact of culture conditions on the production of AMPs by B. velezensis FTL7. The conditions optimized by statistical experimental design were 34.5 °C incubation temperature, 23 h incubation time, and 7.6 initial pH of the medium. AMP purification was performed by ammonium sulphate fractionation and butanol extraction followed by reversed-phase C18 solid-phase extraction. Tricine-SDS-PAGE analysis revealed a peptide with a molecular mass of ~ 6.5 kDa in an active AMPs fraction, whereas the mass spectrometry (MS) analysis showed the presence of AMPs in the mass range of 1-1.6 kDa, along with a 6.5 kDa peptide. Both MS and MS/MS analysis confirmed the AMPs as lipopeptides including surfactin, fengycins and iturin A and a circular bacteriocin amylocyclicin. The minimum inhibitory concentration of these AMPs against L. monocytogenes Scott A was 2.5 µg/mL. Further, the in-silico docking studies showed that the AMPs from B. velezensis FTL7 have high binding energy and stable binding patterns towards L. monocytogenes target proteins. Thus, this new combination of AMPs can serve as an effective food bio-preservative.

Abstract
The rapid proliferation of antibiotic-resistant microbes has imposed an urgent need for development of novel antimicrobial agents with diverse mechanisms. This study reports a novel extraction method with salting-in and salting-out method for obtaining potential bacteriocin from Bacillus subtilis (MK733983) of ethnomedicinal origin. This technique extracted bacteriocin with desired antimicrobial peptide moieties that showed creditable minimum inhibitory concentrations, thermostability and efficacy compared to all other extraction protocols attempted. Further study used a unique scheme of steps in RP-HPLC purification process using methanol-water as solvents for the bacteriocin that achieved an outstanding antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 737). The bacteriocin is sensitive to proteases, confirming its proteinaceous nature and showed promising heat stability up to 70 °C for 10 min. Bacteriocin extracted from a series of ammonium sulphate precipitation showed MIC values 350 µg and 300 µg for Mycobacterium smegmatis and Staphylococcus aureus respectively. On the other hand, bacteriocin extracted by using chloroform showed MIC values 400 µg and 300 µg for M. smegmatis and Staphylococcus aureus. All the results implicate the efficacy of bacteriocin and future prospect as an effective antimicrobial agent.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria metabolites can be used as a clean-label strategy for meat products due to their "natural" and antibacterial properties. In this study, the feasibility of using cell-free supernatant of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 90 (LCFS) as a natural antibacterial agent in ground beef was investigated. The sensitivity of LCFS to pH, heat and protease, as well as the changes of enzyme activities of alkaline phosphatase (AKP) and Na+/K+-ATP together with the morphology of indicator bacteria after LCFS treatment, were analyzed to further explore the antibacterial mechanism of LCFS. The results showed that the addition of 0.5% LCFS inhibited the growth of microorganisms in the ground beef gel and extended its shelf-life without affecting the pH, cooking loss, color and texture characteristics of the product. In addition, the antibacterial effect of LCFS was the result of the interaction of organic acids and protein antibacterial substances in destroying cell structures (cell membrane, etc.) to achieve the purpose of bacteriostasis. This study provides a theoretical basis for the application of LCFS in meat products and a new clean-label strategy for the food industry.

Gene expression and molecular characterization of recombinant subtilisin from Bacillus subtilis with antibacterial, antioxidant and anticancer properties. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 249:125960. [PMID: 37517759 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125960] [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: 01/08/2023] [Revised: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023]
Abstract
This study investigated the multifunctional attributes such as, antibacterial, antioxidant and anticancer potential of recombinant subtilisin. A codon-optimized subtilisin gene was synthesized from Bacillus subtilis and was successfully transformed into E. coli DH5α cells which was further induced for high level expression in E. coli BL21 (DE3). An affinity purified ~40 kDa recombinant subtilisin was obtained that revealed to be highly alkali-thermostable based on the thermodynamic parameters. The kinetic parameters were deduced that indicated higher affinity of N-Suc-F-A-A-F-pNA substrate towards subtilisin. Recombinant subtilisin demonstrated strong antibacterial activity against several pathogens and showed minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.06 μg/mL against B. licheniformis and also revealed high stability under the influence of several biochemical factors. It also displayed antioxidant potential in a dose dependent manner and exhibited cell cytotoxicity against A549 and MCF-7 cancerous cell lines with IC50 of 5 μM and 12 μM respectively. The identity of recombinant subtilisin was established by MALDI-TOF mass spectrum depicting desired mass peaks and N-terminal sequence as MRSK by MALDI-TOF-MS. The deduced N- terminal amino acid sequence by Edman degradation revealed high sequence similarity with subtilisins from Bacillus strains. The structural and functional analysis of recombinant antibacterial subtilisin was elucidated by Raman, circular dichroism and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The results contribute to the development of highly efficient subtilisin with enhanced catalytic properties making it a promising candidate for therapeutic applications in healthcare industries.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) found in a wide range of animal, insect, and plant species are host defense peptides forming an integral part of their innate immunity. Although the exact mode of action of some AMPs is yet to be deciphered, many exhibit membrane lytic activity or interact with intracellular targets. The ever-growing threat of antibiotic resistance has brought attention to research on AMPs to enhance their clinical use as a therapeutic alternative. AMPs have several advantages over antibiotics such as broad range of antimicrobial activities including anti-fungal, anti-viral and anti-bacterial, and have not reported to contribute to resistance development. Despite the numerous studies to develop efficient production methods for AMPs, limitations including low yield, degradation, and loss of activity persists in many recombinant approaches. In this review, we outline available approaches for AMP production and various expression systems used to achieve higher yield and quality. In addition, recent advances in recombinant strategies, suitable fusion protein partners, and other molecular engineering strategies for improved AMP production are surveyed.

Abstract
Potato common scab is a main soil-borne disease of potato that can significantly reduce its quality. At present, it is still a challenge to control potato common scab in the field. To address this problem, the 972 family lactococcin (Lcn972) was screened from Bacillus velezensis HN-Q-8 in this study, and an Escherichia coli overexpression system was used to obtain Lcn972, which showed a significant inhibitory effect on Streptomyces scabies, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 10.58 μg/mL. The stability test showed that Lcn972 is stable against UV radiation and high temperature. In addition, long-term storage at room temperature and 4°C had limited effects on its activity level. The antibacterial activity of Lcn972 was enhanced by Cu2+ and Ca2+, but decreased by protease K. The protein was completely inactivated by Fe2+. Cell membrane staining showed that Lcn972 damaged the cell membrane integrity of S. scabies. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) observations revealed that the hyphae of S. scabies treated with Lcn972 were deformed and adhered, the cell membrane was incomplete, the cytoplasm distribution was uneven, and the cell appeared hollow inside, which led to the death of S. scabies. In conclusion, we used bacteriocin for controlling potato common scab for the first time in this study, and it provides theoretical support for the further application of bacteriocin in the control of plant diseases.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are inherently occurring proteins that are produced by microorganisms as secondary metabolites. Members of genus Bacillus produce many types of AMPs by ribosomal (bacteriocins) and non-ribosomal (polymyxins and iturins) mechanisms. Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized peptides that inhibit the growth of closely related bacterial strains. Moreover, bacteriocins produced by Bacillus species have been widely used in pharmaceutical, food industry, fishery, livestock as well as in agriculture sector. The objective of this review is to assess the characterization of the Bacillus-derived bacteriocins, their potential use in different sectors and structure-activity relationships.

Abstract
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common vaginal infection in reproductive women, which is characterized by depleted level of lactic acid bacteria and overgrowth of anaerobes such as Gardnerella vaginalis spp. Lactic acid bacteria have been known to be beneficial for amelioration of BV, since they produce antimicrobial substances against G. vaginalis spp. The objectives of this study were to characterize different fractions of cell-free supernatant of Lactobacillus paracasei CH88 (LCFS) and investigate antibacterial activity of the LCFS fractions against G. vaginalis in-vitro and in-vivo. Antibacterial activity of the LCFS was stable during thermal treatment up to 120 °C for 30 min and maintained at pH ranging from 3.0 to 13.0 except pH 5.0. Fraction below 3 kDa of the LCFS partially lost its antibacterial activity after treatment with proteolytic enzymes. Precipitated protein fraction below 3 kDa of the LCFS (< 3 kDa LCFSP) inhibited the growth and biofilm formation of G. vaginalis. Treatment of L. paracasei CH88 or the < 3 kDa LCFSP attenuated G. vaginalis-induced BV in mice by inhibiting the growth of G. vaginalis, reducing exfoliation of vaginal epithelial cells, and regulating immune response. These results suggest that L. paracasei CH88 may have potential in ameliorating G. vaginalis-induced BV.

Abstract
A variety of bacteriocins originate from lactic acid bacteria, which have recently been modified by scientists. Many strains of lactic acid bacteria related to food groups could produce bacteriocins or antibacterial proteins highly effective against foodborne pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Shigella flexneri, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Clostridium botulinum. A wide range of bacteria belonging primarily to the genera Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus have been characterized with different health‐promoting attributes. Extensive studies and in‐depth understanding of these antimicrobials mechanisms of action could enable scientists to determine their production in specific probiotic lactic acid bacteria, as they are potentially crucial for the final preservation of functional foods or for medicinal applications. In this review study, the structure, classification, mode of operation, safety, and antibacterial properties of bacteriocins as well as their effect on foodborne pathogens and antibiotic‐resistant bacteria were extensively studied.

Abstract
Bacteria of the genus Bacillus sp. present the potential for inhibiting various pathogens, making them a promising starting point in the search for new antimicrobial substances. In this study, bacteria were isolated from sediment samples from humid areas of a Natural Conservation Unit in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The isolate Bacillus sp. sed 1.4 was selected for production of antimicrobial activity, and was characterized by MALDI-TOF and 16S rDNA sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Bacillus sed 1.4 was closely related to Bacillus altitudinis and Bacillus pumilus. The cell-free supernatant was partially purified using ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration chromatography (Sephadex G-200) and an ultrafiltration membrane. Partial purification resulted in specific activity of 769.23 AU/mg, with a molecular mass of approximately 148 kDa. This antimicrobial substance showed stability at 100°C for 5 min, and was inactivated by proteolytic enzymes. An antimicrobial effect against Listeria species was observed. Considering the importance of the Listeria genus in the area of food safety, this antimicrobial activity should be further explored, specifically in the field of dairy products and with a focus on food biopreservation studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacteria are emerging as an important health problem worldwide. The search for new compounds with antibiotic characteristics is the most promising alternative. Bacteriocins are natural compounds that are inhibitory against pathogens, and Bacillus species are the major producers of these compounds, which have shown antimicrobial activity against clinically important bacteria. These peptides not only have potential in the pharmaceutical industry but also in food and agricultural sectors. OBJECTIVE We provide an overview of the recent bacteriocins isolated from different species of Bacillus including their applications and the older bacteriocins. RESULTS In this review, we have revised some works about the improvements carried out in the production of bacteriocins. CONCLUSION These applications make bacteriocins very promising compounds that need to study for industrial production.

Abstract
A bacteriocin from Bacillus subtilis (MK733983) originated from ethnomedicinal plant was purified using Preparative RP-HPLC. The HPLC fraction eluted with 65% acetonitrile showed the highest antimicrobial activity with Mycobacterium smegmatis as an indicator. Its specific activity and purification fold increased by 70.5% and 44%, respectively, compared to the crude bacteriocin. The bacteriocin showed stability over a wide range of pH (3.0-8.0) and preservation (- 20 °C and 4 °C), also thermal stability up to 80 °C for 20 min. Its proteinaceous nature was confirmed with complete loss of activity on its treatment with Trypsin, Proteinase K, and α-Chymotrypsin. Nevertheless, the bacteriocin retained up to 45% activity with Papainase treatment and was unaffected by salivary Amylase. It maintained ~ 95% activity on UV exposure up to 3 h and its activity was augmented by ethyl alcohol and metal ions like Fe2+ and Mn2+. Most of the common organic solvents, general surfactants, preservatives, and detergents like Sulfobetaine-14, Deoxy-cholic-acid did not affect the bacteriocin's action. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 3.4KDa by LC-ESI-MS/MS analysis. The bacteriocin is non-hemolytic and exhibited a broad inhibition spectrum with standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli and Chromobacterium violaceum with MICs ranging 0.225 ± 0.02-0.55 ± 0.05 mg/mL. Scanning Electron Microscopy showed cell annihilation with pores in cell membranes of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa treated with the bacteriocin, implicating bactericidal mode of action. These promising results suggest that the bacteriocin is significant and has wide-ranging application prospects.

Abstract
AIM The present study aims to evaluate the potential antioxidant and antiproliferative properties of probiotic bacterial isolates Weissella cibaria p3B, Bacillus subtilis CS, and Bacillus tequilensis CL, isolated from South Indian fermented tomato pickle (homemade) and gut content of indigenous country chicken. METHODS AND RESULTS The bacterial isolates exhibited antimicrobial activity against food-borne, human pathogenic bacteria, along with better survival under different bile and acidic conditions, hydrophobicity towards several hydrocarbons, and adherence to intestinal epithelial cells (INT-407 cells). Also, the intact cell (IC) mixture of the three species showed better DPPH, ABTS, and Fe2+ chelating activity as compared to the individual IC or cell extract (CE) activity. Among the three bacterial species, W. cibaria p3B revealed maximum antiproliferative activity against HeLa and Caco-2 cancer cells, all of which were nontoxic to INT-407 cells. Apart from being non-hemolytic, the bacterial isolates did not display any necrotic inhibition in HeLa and Caco-2 cells. The cell free supernatant (CFS) of the three bacterial isolates were tested for the production of antimicrobial peptides or bacteriocins. It found that the CFS of bacterial isolates was stable at various temperature, pH and sensitive to proteolytic enzymes confirms protenoius in nature of the antimicrobil peptides or bacteriocins. CONCLUSION The bacterial isolates showed promising antimicrobial, antioxidant as well as antiproliferative activities with better survival ability at different pH and bile concentrations. The three bacterial isolates were able to produce potential antimicrobial peptides or bacteriocins. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY These results indicate better compatibility of our bacterial isolates against synthetic drugs to avoid adverse side effects and can be processed as dietary supplements against food and human pathogens. They can also provide antioxidative and antiproliferative benefits to humans and animals.

Abstract
Microorganisms isolated from various traditionally fermented food products prepared in households without commercial starter cultures are designated as natural isolates. In addition, this term is also used for microorganisms collected from various natural habitats or products (silage, soil, manure, plant and animal material, etc.) that do not contain any commercial starters or bacterial formulations. They are characterized by unique traits that are the result of the selective pressure of environmental conditions, as well as interactions with other organisms. The synthesis of antimicrobial molecules, including bacteriocins, is an evolutionary advantage and an adaptive feature that sets them apart from other microorganisms from a common environment. This review aims to underline the knowledge of bacteriocins produced by natural isolates, with a particular emphasis on the most common location of their genes and operons, plasmids, and the importance of the relationship between the plasmidome and the adaptive potential of the isolate. Applications of bacteriocins, ranging from natural food preservatives to supplements and drugs in pharmacology and medicine, will also be addressed. The latest challenges faced by researchers in isolating new natural isolates with desired characteristics will be discussed, as well as the production of new antimicrobials, nearly one century since the first discovery of colicins in 1925. KEY POINTS: • Natural bacterial isolates harbor unique properties shaped by diverse interactions. • Horizontal gene transfer enables constant engineering of new antimicrobials. • Fermented food products are important source of bacteriocin-producing natural isolates.

Abstract
Bacteriocins are generally considered as low-molecular-weight ribosomal peptides or proteins synthesized by G+ and G- bacteria that inhibit or kill other related or unrelated microorganisms. However, low yield is an important factor restricting the application of bacteriocins. This paper reviews mining methods, heterologous expression in different systems, the purification technologies applied to bacteriocins, and identification methods, as well as the antibacterial mechanism and applications in three different food systems. Bioinformatics improves the efficiency of bacteriocins mining. Bacteriocins can be heterologously expressed in different expression systems (e.g., Escherichia coli, Lactobacillus, and yeast). Ammonium sulfate precipitation, dialysis membrane, pH-mediated cell adsorption/desorption, solvent extraction, macroporous resin column, and chromatography are always used as purification methods for bacteriocins. The bacteriocins are identified through electrophoresis and mass spectrum. Cell envelope (e.g., cell permeabilization and pore formation) and inhibition of gene expression are common antibacterial mechanisms of bacteriocins. Bacteriocins can be added to protect meat products (e.g., beef and sausages), dairy products (e.g., cheese, milk, and yogurt), and vegetables and fruits (e.g., salad, apple juice, and soybean sprouts). The future research directions are also prospected.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of Lactobacillus plantarum EM as a starter culture to control cabbage-apple juice fermentation and to explore the cholesterol-lowering effects of the fermented juice (EM juice) in rats. L. plantarum EM produced strong antimicrobial activities against bacteria and fungi, suppressing other microorganisms in the fermented juice, and was the dominant organism during fermentation and storage. The EM juice also showed strong and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. Rats fed a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet and administered EM juice showed significantly reduced total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride, and LDL-cholesterol levels, as well as a reduced atherogenic index, lower cardiac factors in serum, and lower TC levels in the liver, while total lipid and TC levels in the rat feces increased. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that the hepatic mRNA expression of HMG-CoA reductase decreased and the expressions of cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase and low-density lipoprotein receptor increased in rats administered EM juice. The effects of EM juice on rats included inhibition of cholesterol synthesis as well as enhancement of cholesterol uptake and cholesterol excretion. The results of this study indicate that the use of L. plantarum EM as a functional starter culture for juice fermentation exerts microbial control, enhances sanitary safety, and provides beneficial food effects against hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract
Microbial fibrinolytic enzyme is a promising candidate for thrombolytic therapy. Non-sterile production of fibrinolytic enzyme by marine Bacillus subtilis D21-8 under submerged fermentation was realized at a mild temperature of 34°C, using a unique combination of starvation strategy and self-production of antibacterial agents. A medium composed of 18.5 g/L glucose, 6.3 g/L yeast extract, 7.9 g/L tryptone, and 5 g/L NaCl was achieved by conventional and statistical methods. Results showed efficient synthesis of fibrinolytic enzyme and antibacterial compounds required the presence of both yeast extract and tryptone in the medium. At shake-flask level, the non-sterile optimized medium resulted in higher productivity of fibrinolytic enzyme than the sterile one, with an enhanced yield of 3,129 U/mL and a production cost reduced by 24%. This is the first report dealing with non-sterile submerged fermentation of fibrinolytic enzyme, which may facilitate the development of feasible techniques for non-sterile production of raw materials for the preparation of potential drugs with low operation cost.

Abstract
Bacteriocins are low molecular weight peptides secreted by the predator bacterial cells to kill sensitive cells present in the same ecosystem competing for food and other nutrients. Exceptionally few bacteriocins along with their native antibacterial property also exhibit additional anti-viral and anti-fungal properties. Bacteriocins are generally produced by Gm+, Gm- and archaea bacteria. Bacteriocins from Gm + bacteria especially from lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been thoroughly investigated considering their great biosafety and broad industrial applications. LAB expressing bacteriocins were isolated from fermented milk and milk products, rumen of animals and soil using deferred antagonism assay. Nisin is the only bacteriocin that has got FDA approval for application as a food preservative, which is produced by Lactococcus lactis subsp. Lactis. Its crystal structure explains that its antimicrobial properties are due to the binding of NH2 terminal to lipid II molecule inhibiting the peptidoglycan synthesis and carboxy terminal forming pores in bacterial cell membrane leading to cell lysis. The hinge region connecting NH2 and carboxy terminus has been mutated to generate mutant variants with higher antimicrobial activity. In a 50 ton fermentation of the mutant strain 3807 derived from L. lactis subsp. lactis ATCC 11454, 9,960 IU/mL of nisin was produced. Currently, high purity of nisin (>99%) is very expensive and hardly commercially available. Development of more advanced tools for cost-effective separation and purification of nisin would be commercially attractive. Chemical synthesis and heterologous expression of bacteriocins ended in low yields of pure proteins. At present, bacteriocins are almost solely applied in food industries, but they have a great potential to be used in other fields such as feeds, organic fertilizers, environmental protection and personal care products. The future of bacteriocins is largely dependent on getting FDA approval for use of other bacteriocins in addition to nisin to promote the research and applications.
