Metab Eng 2024; 84:180-190. [PMID: 38969164 DOI: 10.1016/j.ymben.2024.07.001] [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: 04/01/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/07/2024]
Abstract
Glutathione is a tripeptide of excellent value in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries that is currently produced during yeast fermentation. In this case, glutathione accumulates intracellularly, which hinders high production. Here, we engineered Escherichia coli for the efficient production of glutathione. A total of 4.3 g/L glutathione was produced by overexpressing gshA and gshB, which encode cysteine glutamate ligase and glutathione synthetase, respectively, and most of the glutathione was excreted into the culture medium. Further improvements were achieved by inhibiting degradation (Δggt and ΔpepT); deleting gor (Δgor), which encodes glutathione oxide reductase; attenuating glutathione uptake (ΔyliABCD); and enhancing cysteine production (PompF-cysE). The engineered strain KG06 produced 19.6 g/L glutathione after 48 h of fed-batch fermentation with continuous addition of ammonium sulfate as the sulfur source. We also found that continuous feeding of glycine had a crucial role for effective glutathione production. The results of metabolic flux and metabolomic analyses suggested that the conversion of O-acetylserine to cysteine is the rate-limiting step in glutathione production by KG06. The use of sodium thiosulfate largely overcame this limitation, increasing the glutathione titer to 22.0 g/L, which is, to our knowledge, the highest titer reported to date in the literature. This study is the first report of glutathione fermentation without adding cysteine in E. coli. Our findings provide a great potential of E. coli fermentation process for the industrial production of glutathione.

Abstract
Geotrichum candidum is a dimorphic yeast used in cheese processing. To our knowledge, no major metabolites have been identified to date in G. candidum except for some amino acid and fatty acid metabolites. This has limited research on the commercial use of G. candidum. In this study, we aimed to analyze temporal changes in the intra- and extra-cellular metabolites of G. candidum and Saccharomyces cerevisiae cultured in YM medium as reference. As a result of metabolite analysis, it was observed that G. candidum tends to accumulate pentose phosphate pathway compounds, which are involved in nucleic acid synthesis, after 48 h of cultivation when compared to S. cerevisiae. In addition, G. candidum accumulated higher amounts of the antioxidant glutathione in the medium than did S. cerevisiae. In addition, G. candidum accumulated large amounts of B vitamins such as pantothenic acid and nicotinic acid in the medium. Finally, we examined the potential of G. candidum as a host for the production of useful compounds such as pantothenic acid. When cultured in medium supplemented with the pantothenic acid precursor β-alanine, G. candidum produced 12-fold higher amounts of pantothenic acid (30 μM) than that by S. cerevisiae. This study indicates that G. candidum accumulates various useful compounds that are dissimilar to those produced by S. cerevisiae. Furthermore, G. candidum has the potential to produce useful chemicals under appropriate culture conditions.

Abstract
Quality control of Radix Bupleuri (RB) can be challenging due to the complexity of origin, the similar morphological characteristics, and the diversity of the multiple components. In this study, an integrated strategy for extensive identification of metabolites in plants based on multiple data processing methods was proposed to distinguish four commercially available RB species. First, the pre-processed mass spectrometry data was uploaded to Global Natural Products Social Molecular Networking (GNPS) for spectral library search and molecular network analysis, which can effectively differentiate isomers and reduce molecular redundancy. Second, the possible cleavage mode was summarized from the characteristic MS/MS fragment ions of saikoside standard, and then the possible structure of saikoside in the sample was deduced according to the cleavage patterns. Third, collected all kinds of RB components reported in the literature and matched the information in the samples to obtain more comprehensive information about metabolites. Finally, chemical markers were found employing chemometrics. This strategy not only increases the variety and number of identified components, but also improves the accuracy of the data. Based on this strategy, a total of 132 components were identified from different species of RB, and 14 chemical constituents were considered to be potential chemical markers to distinguish four kinds of RB. Among them, saikogenin a, hydroxy-saikosaponin a, hydroxy-saikosaponin d, and rutinum were of great significance for identification. The method proposed in this study not only successfully identified and distinguished four species of RB, but also laid a good theoretical foundation for regulating the RB market. This strategy provides promising perspectives in the accurate analysis of the ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine.

Abstract
Microbial metabolomics has gained significant interest as it reflects the physiological state of microorganisms. Due to the great variability of biological organisms, in terms of physicochemical characteristics and variable range of concentration of metabolites, the choice of sample preparation methods is a crucial step in the metabolomics workflow and will reflect on the quality and reliability of the results generated. The procedures applied to the preparation of microbial samples will vary according to the type of microorganism studied, the metabolomics approach (untargeted or targeted), and the analytical platform of choice. This chapter aims to provide an overview of the sample preparation workflow for microbial metabolomics, highlighting the pre-analytical factors associated with cultivation, harvesting, metabolic quenching, and extraction. Discussions focus on obtaining intracellular and extracellular metabolites. Finally, we introduced advanced sample preparation methods based on automated systems.

Abstract
Metabolomics, an essential tool in modern synthetic biology based on the design-build-test-learn platform, is useful for obtaining a detailed understanding of cellular metabolic mechanisms through comprehensive analyses of the metabolite pool size and its dynamic changes. Metabolomics is critical to the design of a rational metabolic engineering strategy by determining the rate-limiting reaction and assimilated carbon distribution in a biosynthetic pathway of interest. Microalgae and cyanobacteria are promising photosynthetic producers of biofuels and bio-based chemicals, with high potential for developing a bioeconomic society through bio-based carbon neutral manufacturing. Metabolomics technologies optimized for photosynthetic organisms have been developed and utilized in various microalgal and cyanobacterial species. This review provides a concise overview of recent achievements in photosynthetic metabolomics, emphasizing the importance of microalgal and cyanobacterial cell factories that satisfy industrial requirements.

Abstract
Nitrogen is essential for the biosynthesis of various molecules in cells, such as amino acids and nucleotides, as well as several types of lipids and sugars. Cyanobacteria can assimilate several forms of nitrogen, including nitrate, ammonium, and urea, and the physiological and genetic responses to these nitrogen sources have been studied previously. However, the metabolic changes in cyanobacteria caused by different nitrogen sources have not yet been characterized. This study aimed to elucidate the influence of nitrate and ammonium on the metabolic profiles of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803. When supplemented with NaNO3 or NH4Cl as the nitrogen source, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 grew faster in NH4Cl medium than in NaNO3 medium. Metabolome analysis indicated that some metabolites in the CBB cycle, glycolysis, and TCA cycle, and amino acids were more abundant when grown in NH4Cl medium than NaNO3 medium. 15N turnover rate analysis revealed that the nitrogen assimilation rate in NH4Cl medium was higher than in NaNO3 medium. These results indicate that the mechanism of nitrogen assimilation in the GS-GOGAT cycle differs between NaNO3 and NH4Cl. We conclude that the amounts and biosynthetic rate of cyanobacterial metabolites varies depending on the type of nitrogen.

Abstract
In the host, pathogenic microorganisms have developed stress responses to cope with constantly changing environments. Stress responses are directly related to changes in several metabolomic pathways, which could hamper microorganisms' unequivocal identification. We evaluated the effect of various in vitro stress conditions (acidic, basic, oxidative, ethanolic, and saline conditions) on the metabolism of Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which are common lung pathogens. The metabolite profiles of the bacteria were analyzed using liquid chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The advantages of targeted and untargeted analysis combined with univariate and multivariate statistical analysis (principal component analysis, hierarchical cluster analysis, partial least square discriminant analysis, random forest) were combined to unequivocally identify bacterial species. In normal in vitro conditions, the targeted methodology, based on the analysis of primary metabolites, enabled the rapid and efficient discrimination of the three bacteria. In changing in vitro conditions and specifically in presence of the various stressors, the untargeted methodology proved to be more valuable for the global and accurate differentiation of the three bacteria, also considering the type of stress environment within each species. In addition, species-specific metabolites (i.e., fatty acids, polysaccharides, peptides, and nucleotide bases derivatives) were putatively identified. Good intra-day repeatability and inter-day repeatability (< 10% RSD and < 15% RSD, respectively) were obtained for the targeted and the untargeted methods. This untargeted approach highlights its importance in unusual (and less known) bacterial growth environments, being a powerful tool for infectious disease diagnosis, where the accurate classification of microorganisms is sought.

Abstract
Mesaconitine is the predominant active ingredient in Aconitum carmichaelii Debx. The compound 10-hydroxy mesaconitine is one known metabolite of mesaconitine and is toxic. In order to better understand its pharmacokinetics, UPLC-MS/MS was used in this paper to measure the concentration of 10-hydroxy mesaconitine in the plasma of rats after oral (5 mg/kg) and intravenous (0.1 mg/kg) administration of 10-hydroxy mesaconitine. The concentrations of 10-hydroxy mesaconitine in rat plasma measured in the standard curve covered the range of 0.3-60 ng/mL. The intraday and interday precisions of the samples of 10-hydroxy mesaconitine in rat plasma were lower than 15%. In addition, the accuracies ranged between 96.0% and 109.3%, the matrix effects ranged between 88.9% and 98.1%, and the recoveries were all higher than 79.1%. The AUC(0 - t) values were 23.6 ± 5.9 and 207.6 ± 72.9 ng/mL·h for intravenous and oral administration, respectively, and the bioavailability of 10-hydroxy mesaconitine was 17.6%. Lastly, t 1/2 was 1.3 ± 0.6 h and 3.1 ± 0.4 h for intravenous and oral administration, respectively.
