Abstract
Invertases, or β-fructofuranosidases, are metabolic enzymes widely distributed among plants and microorganisms that hydrolyze sucrose and release fructose from various substrates. Invertase was one of the earliest discovered enzymes, first investigated in the mid-nineteenth century, becoming a classical model used in the primary biochemical studies on protein synthesis, activity, and the secretion of glycoproteins. However, it was not until 20 years ago that a member of this family of enzymes was structurally characterized, showing a bimodular arrangement with a β-propeller catalytic domain, and a β-sandwich domain with unknown function. Since then, many studies on related plant and fungal enzymes have revealed them as basically monomeric. By contrast, all yeast enzymes in this family that have been characterized so far have shown sophisticated oligomeric structures mediated by the non-catalytic domain, which is also involved in substrate binding, and how this assembly determines the particular specificity of each enzyme. In this chapter, we will review the available structures of yeast invertases to elucidate the mechanism regulating oligomer formation and compare them with other reported dimeric invertases in which the oligomeric assembly has no apparent functional implications. In addition, recent work on a new family of invertases with absolute specificity for the α-(1,2)-bond of sucrose found in cyanobacteria and plant invertases is highlighted.

Successive Fermentation of Aguamiel and Molasses by Aspergillus oryzae and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to Obtain High Purity Fructooligosaccharides. Foods 2022; 11:foods11121786.

Abstract
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are usually synthesized with pure enzymes using highly concentrated sucrose solutions. In this work, low-cost aguamiel and molasses were explored as sucrose alternatives to produce FOS, via whole-cell fermentation, with an Aspergillus oryzae DIA-MF strain. FOS production process was optimized through a central composite experimental design, with two independent variables: initial sucrose concentration in a medium composed of aguamiel and molasses (AgMe), and inoculum concentration. The optimized process—165 g/L initial sucrose in AgMe (adjusted with concentrated molasses) and 1 × 107 spores/mL inoculum concentration—resulted in an FOS production of 119 ± 12 g/L and a yield of 0.64 ± 0.05 g FOS/g GFi. Among the FOSs produced were kestose, nystose, 1-fructofuranosyl-nystose, and potentially a novel trisaccharide produced by this strain. To reduce the content of mono- and disaccharides in the mixture, run a successive fermentation was run with two Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. Fermentations run with S. cerevisiae S227 improved FOS purity in the mixture from 39 ± 3% to 61.0 ± 0.6% (w/w) after 16 h of fermentation. This study showed that agro-industrial wastes such as molasses with aguamiel are excellent alternatives as substrate sources for the production of prebiotic FOS, resulting in a lower-cost process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fructosyltransferases (FTases) are drawing increasing attention due to their application in prebiotic fructooligosaccharide (FOS) generation. FTases have been reported to occur in a variety of microorganisms but are predominantly found in filamentous fungi. These are employed at the industrial scale for generating FOS which make the key ingredient in functional food supplements and nutraceuticals due to their bifidogenic and various other health-promoting properties. SCOPE AND APPROACH This review is aimed to discuss recent developments made in the area of FTase production, characterization, and application in order to present a comprehensive account of their present status to the reader. Structural features, catalytic mechanisms, and FTase improvement strategies have also been discussed in order to provide insight into these aspects. KEY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS Although FTases occur in several plants and microorganisms, fungal FTases are being exploited commercially for industrial-scale FOS generation. Several fungal FTases have been characterized and heterologously expressed. However, considerable scope exists for improved production and application of FTases for cost-effective production of prebiotic FOS.HIGHLIGHTSFructosyltrasferase (FTase) is a key enzyme in fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) generationDevelopments in the production, properties, and functional aspects of FTasesMolecular modification and immobilization strategies for improved FOS generationFructosyltransferases are innovation hotspots in the food and nutraceutical industries.

Abstract
The β-fructofuranosidase from the yeast Rhodotorula dairenensis (RdINV) produces a mixture of potential prebiotic fructooligosaccharides (FOS) of the levan-, inulin- and neo-FOS series by transfructosylation of sucrose. In this work, the gene responsible for this activity was characterized and its functionality proved in Pichia pastoris. The amino acid sequence of the new protein contained most of the characteristic elements of β-fructofuranosidases included in the family 32 of the glycosyl hydrolases (GH32). The heterologous yeast produced a protein of about 170 kDa, where N-linked and O-linked carbohydrates constituted about 15% and 38% of the total protein mass, respectively. Biochemical and kinetic properties of the heterologous protein were similar to the native enzyme, including its ability to produce prebiotic sugars. The maximum concentration of FOS obtained was 82.2 g/L, of which 6-kestose represented about 59% (w/w) of the total products synthesized. The potential of RdINV to fructosylate 19 hydroxylated compounds was also explored, of which eight sugars and four alditols were modified. The flexibility to recognize diverse fructosyl acceptors makes this protein valuable to produce novel glycosyl-compounds with potential applications in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
The β-fructofuranosidase from Schwanniomyces occidentalis (Ffase) is a useful biotechnological tool for the fructosylation of different acceptors to produce fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and fructo-conjugates. In this work, the structural determinants of Ffase involved in the transfructosylating reaction of the alditols mannitol and erythritol have been studied in detail. Complexes with fructosyl-erythritol or sucrose were analyzed by crystallography and the effect of mutational changes in positions Gln-176, Gln-228, and Asn-254 studied to explore their role in modulating this biocatalytic process. Interestingly, N254T variant enhanced the wild-type protein production of fructosyl-erythritol and FOS by \documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

Noteworthy, N254D and Q176E replacements turned the specificity of Ffase transferase activity towards the synthesis of the fructosylated polyols at the expense of FOS production, but without increasing the total reaction efficiency. The results presented here highlight the relevance of the pair Gln-228/Asn-254 for Ffase donor-sucrose binding and opens new windows of opportunity for optimizing the generation of fructosyl-derivatives by this enzyme enhancing its biotechnological applicability.

Abstract
Kestoses, the smallest fructooligosaccharides, are trisaccharides composed of a fructose molecule and a sucrose molecule linked by either β-(2,1) or β-(2,6) linkage. 1-kestose, 6-kestose and neokestose are the three types of kestoses occurring in nature. As the main kind of fructooligosaccharide, kestoses share similar physiological effects with other fructooligosaccharides, and they have recently been determined to show more notable effects in promoting the growth of probiotics including Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Bifidobacterium than those of other fructooligosaccharides. Kestoses exist in many plants, but the relatively low content and the isolation and purification are the main barriers limiting their industrial application. The production of kestoses by enzymatic biosynthesis and microbial fermentation has the potential to facilitate its production and industrial use. In this article, the recent advances in the research of kestoses were overviewed, including those studying their functions and production. Kestose-producing enzymes were introduced in detail, and microbial production and fermentation optimization techniques for enhancing the yield of kestoses were addressed. β-Fructofuranosidase is the main one used to produce kestoses because of the extensive range of microbial sources. Therefore, the production of kestoses by microorganisms containing β-fructofuranosidase has also been reviewed. However, few molecular modification studies have attempted to change the production profile of some enzymes and improve the yield of kestoses, which is a topic that should garner more attention. Additionally, the production of kestoses using food-grade microorganisms may be beneficial to their application in the food industry.

Abstract
A new isolated P. citreonigrum URM 4459 was selected to produce fructooligosaccharides (FOS) in an efficient, economical and fast one-step fermentation. Optimal culture conditions were stablished by experimental design. Experiments run in bioreactor resulted in a high yield, content, productivity and purity of FOS (0.65 ± 0.06 gFOS/ginitial Sucrose, 126.3 ± 0.1 g/L, 2.28 ± 0.08 g/L.h and 61 ± 0%). The FOS mixture was purified up to 92% (w/w) with an activated charcoal column. FOS produced were able to promote lactobacilli and bifidobacteria growth. Higher bacteria cell density was obtained for microbial-FOS mixtures than commercial Raftilose® P95. Some strains grew even faster in the FOS mixture produced than in all other carbon sources. FOS were resistant to the simulated gastrointestinal conditions. A high amount of a reducing trisaccharide was identified in the FOS produced mixture, possibly neokestose, which may explain the great prebiotic potential of the FOS.

Abstract
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are fructose-based oligosaccharides employed as additives to improve the nutritional and technological properties of foods. The rhizosphere of inulin-accumulating plants from the Cerrado (Brazilian savanna) harbor fungi capable of synthesizing FOS from sucrose through the transfructosylating activity of β-fructosyltransferases and/or β-fructofuranosidases. Here, we investigated the ability of Penicillium janczewskii Zaleski CCIBt 3352, a fungus isolated from the rhizosphere of Chrysolaena obovata (Asteraceae), to produce FOS in a medium supplemented with sucrose concentrations of 30, 100, or 150 g L-1 . Hydrolytic activity on sucrose was observed in culture filtrates; however, at 150 g L-1 sucrose, the accumulation of 8 g L-1 1-kestose (inulin-type FOS) and 7.3 g L-1 neokestose (neolevan-type FOS) was observed, the latter being a type of FOS not commonly produced by filamentous fungi. In addition, minor amounts of four unidentified oligosaccharides, with a high degree of polymerization, were detected. The production of FOS was also observed in enzymatic assays, indicating the presence of extracellular enzymes with transfructosylating activity in the culture filtrates. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of isolating promising microorganisms, for the production of FOS-synthesizing enzymes, from the rhizosphere of fructan-producing plants of the Brazilian Cerrado.

Abstract
Fructofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.26) from Aureobasidium sp. ATCC 20524, recovered from 5 L fermented medium, purified by two simple steps with a yield of 65 % and a purification factor of 16, was immobilized by adsorption onto titanium dioxide (FTIO). The enzyme was also covalently immobilized onto TiO2 coated with polyethyleneimine (FTIOP) and encapsulated in gellan gum (FTIOPG). FTIO and FTIOP recorded an activity of 903 U g−1 and 9212 U g−1, respectively. The immobilized enzyme showed high activity and stability at pH levels ranging from 4.0 to 8.0 and there were no changes in the temperature profile for either methodology when compared with free fructofuranosidase. The immobilized biocatalysts were reused 7 times for FOS production without significant activity loss, except FTIO at pH 5.0. Gellan gum was used for FTIOP encapsulation. FOS production was performed in a batch and a continuous reactor using FTIOPG as a biocatalyst. Batch conversion (gFOS/ginitial sucrose) was around 60 % for initial sucrose concentrations of 100, 300 and 600 g L−1, at a time of maximum conversion. Fixed-bed reactor operational stability was remarkable, providing a constant FOS production in the outlet of the column during 720 h.

Abstract
The immobilization of β-fructofuranosidase for short-chain fructooligosaccharide (scFOS) synthesis holds the potential for a more efficient use of the biocatalyst. However, the choice of carrier and immobilization technique is a key to achieving that efficiency. In this study, calcium alginate (CA), Amberlite IRA 900 (AI900) and Dowex Marathon MSA (DMM) were tested as supports for immobilizing a novel engineered β-fructofuranosidase from Aspergillus japonicus for scFOS synthesis. Several immobilization parameters were estimated to ascertain the effectiveness of the carriers in immobilizing the enzyme. The performance of the immobilized biocatalysts are compared in terms of the yield of scFOS produced and reusability. The selection of carriers and reagents was motivated by the need to ensure safety of application in the production of food-grade products. The CA and AI900 both recorded impressive immobilization yields of 82 and 62%, respectively, while the DMM recorded 47%. Enzyme immobilizations on CA, AI900 and DMM showed activity recoveries of 23, 27, and 17%, respectively. The CA, AI900 immobilized and the free enzymes recorded their highest scFOS yields of 59, 53, and 61%, respectively. The AI900 immobilized enzyme produced a consistent scFOS yield and composition for 12 batch cycles but for the CA immobilized enzyme, only 6 batch cycles gave a consistent scFOS yield. In its first record of application in scFOS production, the AI900 anion exchange resin exhibited potential as an adequate carrier for industrial application with possible savings on cost of immobilization and reduced technical difficulty.

Abstract
An efficient system for biotransformation of sucrose to fructooligosaccharides (FOS) was obtained using Aspergillus tamarii NKRC 1229 mycelial fructosyltransferase (m-FTase). Zymographic analysis confirmed mycelial localization of the FTase (36 U/g) and lyophilized fungal pellets were used for bioconversion. m-FTase had molecular weight ∼75 kDa with optimum activity at pH 7.0 and 20 °C. FOS production after parametric optimization (sucrose - 50% w/v, m-FTase dose - 4.5% w/v, inoculum age - 48 h and incubation time - 24 h) reached 325 g/L (55% yield) with 14% residual sucrose, 25% glucose and 6% fructose. FTase activity was enhanced after pre-treatment with organic solvents and SDS. FOS was purified in a single step using gel filtration matrix, Bio-Gel P2. FOS was characterized using Diffusion ordered spectroscopy-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H DOSY-NMR) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Continuous generation of FOS was achieved using recyclable mycelia upto 10 consecutive cycles.

Abstract
Two new records of Trichocomaceae, namely Aspergillus allahabadii and Penicillium sizovae, were isolated in 2016 during a survey of fungal diversity in different crop fields locations in Gyeongnam, Korea. These species were identified based on morphological characters and phylogenetic analysis using internal transcribed spacer region and β-tubulin-encoding gene sequence data. A. allahabadii and P. sizovae have not yet been reported in Korea. Thus, this is the first report of these species in Korea, and their descriptions as well as details of their morphological characters are presented.

Exploring the transferase activity of Ffase from Schwanniomyces occidentalis, a β-fructofuranosidase showing high fructosyl-acceptor promiscuity. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2016; 100:8769-78.

Abstract
The β-fructofuranosidase from the yeast Schwanniomyces occidentalis (Ffase) produces the prebiotic sugars 6-kestose and 1-kestose by transfructosylation of sucrose, which makes it of biotechnological interest. In this study, the hydrolase and transferase activity of this enzyme was kinetically characterized and its potential to synthesize new fructosylated products explored. A total of 40 hydroxylated compounds were used as potential fructosyl-acceptor alternatives to sucrose. Only 17 of them, including some monosaccharides, disaccharides, and oligosaccharides as well as alditols and glycosides were fructosylated. The best alternative acceptors were the alditols. The major transfer product of the reaction including mannitol was purified and characterized as 1-O-β-D-fructofuranosyl-D-mannitol, whose maximum concentration reached 44 g/L, representing about 7.3 % of total compounds in the mixture and 89 % of all products generated by transfructosylation. The reactions including erythritol produced 35 g/L of an isomer mixture comprising 1- and 4-O-β-D-fructofuranosyl-D-erythritol. In addition, Ffase produced 24 g/L of the disaccharide blastose by direct fructosylation of glucose, which makes it the first enzyme characterized from yeast showing this ability. Thus, novel fructosylated compounds with potential applications in food and pharmaceutical industries can be obtained due to the Ffase fructosyl-acceptor promiscuity.

Abstract
A sustainable and scalable process for the production of a new mixture of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) was developed using a continuous-flow approach based on an immobilized whole cells-packed bed reactor. The technological transfer from a classical batch system to an innovative flow environment allowed a significant improvement of the productivity. Moreover, the stability of this production system was ascertained by up to 7 days of continuous working. These results suggest the suitability of the proposed method for a large-scale production of the desired FOS mixture, in view of a foreseeable use as a novel prebiotic preparation.
