Highly efficient synergistic activity of an α-L-arabinofuranosidase for degradation of arabinoxylan in barley/wheat. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1230738.

Abstract
Here, an α-L-arabinofuranosidase (termed TtAbf62) from Thermothelomyces thermophilus is described, which efficiently removes arabinofuranosyl side chains and facilitates arabinoxylan digestion. The specific activity of TtAbf62 (179.07 U/mg) toward wheat arabinoxylan was the highest among all characterized glycoside hydrolase family 62 enzymes. TtAbf62 in combination with endoxylanase and β-xylosidase strongly promoted hydrolysis of barley and wheat. The release of reducing sugars was significantly higher for the three-enzyme combination relative to the sum of single-enzyme treatments: 85.71% for barley hydrolysis and 33.33% for wheat hydrolysis. HPLC analysis showed that TtAbf62 acted selectively on monosubstituted (C-2 or C-3) xylopyranosyl residues rather than double-substituted residues. Site-directed mutagenesis and interactional analyses of enzyme-substrate binding structures revealed the catalytic sites of TtAbf62 formed different polysaccharide-catalytic binding modes with arabinoxylo-oligosaccharides. Our findings demonstrate a "multienzyme cocktail" formed by TtAbf62 with other hydrolases strongly improves the efficiency of hemicellulose conversion and increases biomass hydrolysis through synergistic interaction.

Abstract
The Xylo-1 xylosidase, which belongs to the GH43 family, exhibits a high salt tolerance. The present study demonstrated that the catalytic activity of Xylo-1 increased by 195% in the presence of 5 M NaCl. Additionally, the half-life of Xylo-1 increased 25.9-fold in the presence of 1 M NaCl. Through comprehensive analysis including circular dichroism, fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics simulations, we elucidated that the presence of Na+ ions increased the contact frequency between the surface acidic amino acids and the surrounding water molecules. This resulted in the stabilization of the surrounding hydration layer of Xylo-1. Additionally, Na+ ions also stabilized the substrate-binding conformation and the fluctuation of water molecules within the active site, which enhanced the catalytic activity of Xylo-1 by increasing the nucleophilic attack by the water molecules. Ultimately, the optimal reaction conditions for the production of xylose by synergistic catalysis with Xylo-1 and xylanase were determined. The results demonstrated that the conversion yield of the method was high for various sources of xylan, indicating the method could have potential industrial applications. This study explored the structure-activity relationship of catalysis in Xylo-1 under high-salt conditions, provides novel insights into the mechanism of halophilic enzymes, and serves as a reference for the industrial application of Xylo-1.

Abstract
Adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl), a biologically active form of vitamin B12 (coenzyme B12), is one of the most complex metal-containing natural compounds and an essential vitamin for animals. However, AdoCbl can only be de novo synthesized by prokaryotes, and its industrial manufacturing to date was limited to bacterial fermentation. Here, we report a method for the synthesis of AdoCbl based on a cell-free reaction system performing a cascade of catalytic reactions from 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), an inexpensive compound. More than 30 biocatalytic reactions are integrated and optimized to achieve the complete cell-free synthesis of AdoCbl, after overcoming feedback inhibition, the complicated detection, instability of intermediate products, as well as imbalance and competition of cofactors. In the end, this cell-free system produces 417.41 μg/L and 5.78 mg/L of AdoCbl using 5-ALA and the purified intermediate product hydrogenobyrate as substrates, respectively. The strategies of coordinating synthetic modules of complex cell-free system describe here will be generally useful for developing cell-free platforms to produce complex natural compounds with long and complicated biosynthetic pathways.

Abstract
Enzymes have been used in the food processing industry for many years. However, the use of native enzymes is not conducive to high activity, efficiency, range of substrates, and adaptability to harsh food processing conditions. The advent of enzyme engineering approaches such as rational design, directed evolution, and semi-rational design provided much-needed impetus for tailor-made enzymes with improved or novel catalytic properties. Production of designer enzymes became further refined with the emergence of synthetic biology and gene editing techniques and a plethora of other tools such as artificial intelligence, and computational and bioinformatics analyses which have paved the way for what is referred to as precision fermentation for the production of these designer enzymes more efficiently. With all the technologies available, the bottleneck is now in the scale-up production of these enzymes. There is generally a lack of accessibility thereof of large-scale capabilities and know-how. This review is aimed at highlighting these various enzyme-engineering strategies and the associated scale-up challenges, including safety concerns surrounding genetically modified microorganisms and the use of cell-free systems to circumvent this issue. The use of solid-state fermentation (SSF) is also addressed as a potentially low-cost production system, amenable to customization and employing inexpensive feedstocks as substrate.

Abstract
In the face of increasing mobility and energy demand, as well as the mitigation of climate change, the development of sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives to fossil fuels will be one of the most important tasks facing humankind in the coming years. In order to initiate the transition from a petroleum-based economy to a new, greener future, biofuels and synthetic fuels have great potential as they can be adapted to already common processes. Thereby, especially synthetic fuels from CO2 and renewable energies are seen as the next big step for a sustainable and ecological life. In our study, we directly address the sustainable production of the most common biofuel, ethanol, and the highly interesting next-generation biofuel, isobutanol, from methanol and xylose, which are directly derivable from CO2 and lignocellulosic waste streams, respectively, such integrating synthetic fuel and biofuel production. After enzyme and reaction optimization, we succeeded in producing either 3 g L-1 ethanol or 2 g L-1 isobutanol from 7.5 g L-1 xylose and 1.6 g L-1 methanol. In our cell-free enzyme system, C1-compounds are efficiently combined and fixed by the key enzyme transketolase and converted to the intermediate pyruvate. This opens the way for a hybrid production of biofuels, platform chemicals and fine chemicals from CO2 and lignocellulosic waste streams as alternative to conventional routes depending solely either on CO2 or sugars.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The fermentation valorization of two main lignocellulosic monosaccharides, glucose and xylose, is extensively developed; however, it is restricted by limited yield and process complexity. An in vitro enzymatic cascade reaction can be an alternative approach. RESULTS In this study, a three-stage, five-enzyme cascade was developed to convert pretreated biomass to valuable chemicals. First, a ribose-5-phosphate isomerase B mutant isomerized xylose to d-xylulose with high substrate specificity, and a d-arabinose dehydrogenase continued to reduce d-xylulose to d-arabitol. Simultaneously, glucose was utilized for the coenzyme regeneration catalyzed by a glucose dehydrogenase, generating useful gluconic acid and achieving 73% of total conversion rate after 36 h. Then, six kinds of pretreated biomass lignocellulose were hydrolyzed by cellulase and hemicellulase, and corn cob was identified as the initial substrate for providing the highest monosaccharide content. A 65% conversion rate of the lignocellulosic xylose was obtained after 24 h. CONCLUSIONS This study presents a proof of concept to convert main lignocellulosic monosaccharides systematically by an enzymatic cascade at stoichiometric ratio. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The characteristics of bioliquid produced through the hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) of wood wastes and the effects of recirculation on hydrochar production were analyzed. The organic acids and total organic carbon of bioliquid increased with progressive recirculation, whereas intermediate byproducts decreased. Hydrochar production by bioliquid recirculation increased mass yield, carbon content, caloric value, and energy yield of the former, while improving its quality as a solid refuse fuel. We concluded that bioliquid recirculation promoted HTC, as demonstrated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Furthermore, contrary to predictions, a relatively constant quantity of bioliquid was generated in each step, indicating that its continuous reuse is feasible. Therefore, bioliquid recirculation can improve hydrochar production while simultaneously mitigating the environmental impact of wastewater generation. This method should be considered an important strategy toward the implementation of carbon-neutrality goals.

Abstract
Inositol is an essential intermediate in cosmetics, food, medicine and other industries. However, developing an efficient biotransformation system for large-scale production of inositol remains challenging. Herein, a tri-enzymatic cascade route with three novel enzymes including polyphosphate glucokinase (PPGK) from Thermobifida fusca, inositol 3-phosphate synthase (IPS) from Archaeoglobus profundus DSM 5631 and inositol monophosphatase (IMP) from Thermotoga petrophila RKU-1 was designed and reconstructed for the production of inositol from glucose. The problem of poor cooperativity of the cascade reactions was addressed by ribosome binding site (RBS) optimization of PPGK and replication of IPS. Under the optimum biotransformation conditions, the engineered whole-cell immobilized with colloidal chitin transformed 120 g/L glucose to 110.8 g/L inositol with 92.3% conversion in four cycles of reuse, representing the highest titer of inositol to date. Furthermore, this is the first study for inositol production using a three-enzyme coordinated immobilized single-cell.

Abstract
Environmentally friendly and sustainable processes for the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) gain increasing attention. Biocatalytic synthesis routes with enzyme cascades support many stated green production principles, for example, the reduced need for solvents or the biodegradability of enzymes. Multi-enzyme reactions have even more advantages such as the shift of the equilibrium towards the product side, no intermediate isolation, and the synthesis of complex molecules in one reaction pot. Despite the intriguing benefits, only a few enzyme cascades have been applied in the pharmaceutical industry so far. However, several new enzyme cascades are currently being developed in research that could be of great importance to the pharmaceutical industry. Here, we present multi-enzymatic reactions for API synthesis that are close to an industrial application. Their performances are comparable or exceed their chemical counterparts. A few enzyme cascades that are still in development are also introduced in this review. Economic and ecological considerations are made for some example cascades to assess their environmental friendliness and applicability.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) acts as a crucial energy currency in vivo, and it is a widely used energy and/or phosphate donor for enzyme-catalyzed reactions in vitro. In this study, we established an in vitro multi-enzyme cascade system for ATP production. Using adenosine and inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) as key substrates, we combined adenosine kinase and two functionally distinct polyphosphate kinases (PPKs) in a one-pot reaction to achieve chain-like ATP regeneration and production. Several sources of PPK were screened and characterized, and two suitable PPKs were selected to achieve high rates of ATP production. Among these, Sulfurovum lithotrophicum PPK (SlPPK) exhibited excellent activity over a wide pH range (pH 4.0-9.0) and synthesized ATP from ADP using short-chain polyP. Furthermore, it had a half-life > 155.6 h at 45 °C. After optimizing the reaction conditions, we finally carried out the coupling-catalyzed reaction with different initial adenosine concentrations of 10, 20, and 30 mM. The highest yields of ATP were 76.0, 70.5, and 61.3%, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The members of the genus Caldicellulosiruptor have the potential for future integration into a biorefinery system due to their capacity to generate hydrogen close to the theoretical limit of 4 mol H2/mol hexose, use a wide range of sugars and can grow on numerous lignocellulose hydrolysates. However, members of this genus are unable to survive in high sugar concentrations, limiting their ability to grow on more concentrated hydrolysates, thus impeding their industrial applicability. In this study five members of this genus, C. owensensis, C. kronotskyensis, C. bescii, C. acetigenus and C. kristjanssonii, were developed to tolerate higher sugar concentrations through an adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) process. The developed mixed population C. owensensis CO80 was further studied and accompanied by the development of a kinetic model based on Monod kinetics to quantitatively compare it with the parental strain. RESULTS Mixed populations of Caldicellulosiruptor tolerant to higher glucose concentrations were obtained with C. owensensis adapted to grow up to 80 g/L glucose; other strains in particular C. kristjanssonii demonstrated a greater restriction to adaptation. The C. owensensis CO80 mixed population was further studied and demonstrated the ability to grow in glucose concentrations up to 80 g/L glucose, but with reduced volumetric hydrogen productivities ([Formula: see text]) and incomplete sugar conversion at elevated glucose concentrations. In addition, the carbon yield decreased with elevated concentrations of glucose. The ability of the mixed population C. owensensis CO80 to grow in high glucose concentrations was further described with a kinetic growth model, which revealed that the critical sugar concentration of the cells increased fourfold when cultivated at higher concentrations. When co-cultured with the adapted C. saccharolyticus G5 mixed culture at a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 20 h, C. owensensis constituted only 0.09-1.58% of the population in suspension. CONCLUSIONS The adaptation of members of the Caldicellulosiruptor genus to higher sugar concentrations established that the ability to develop improved strains via ALE is species dependent, with C. owensensis adapted to grow on 80 g/L, whereas C. kristjanssonii could only be adapted to 30 g/L glucose. Although C. owensensis CO80 was adapted to a higher sugar concentration, this mixed population demonstrated reduced [Formula: see text] with elevated glucose concentrations. This would indicate that while ALE permits adaptation to elevated sugar concentrations, this approach does not result in improved fermentation performances at these higher sugar concentrations. Moreover, the observation that planktonic mixed culture of CO80 was outcompeted by an adapted C. saccharolyticus, when co-cultivated in continuous mode, indicates that the robustness of CO80 mixed culture should be improved for industrial application.

Abstract
Developing (chemo)enzymatic cascades is very attractive for green synthesis, because they streamline multistep synthetic processes. In this Feature Article, we have summarized the recent advances in in vitro or whole-cell cascade reactions with a focus on the use of renewable bio-based resources as starting materials. This includes the synthesis of rare sugars (such as ketoses, L-ribulose, D-tagatose, myo-inositol or aminosugars) from readily available carbohydrate sources (cellulose, hemi-cellulose, starch), in vitro enzyme pathways to convert glucose to various biochemicals, cascades to convert 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and furfural obtained from lignin or xylose into novel precursors for polymer synthesis, the syntheses of phenolic compounds, cascade syntheses of aliphatic and highly reduced chemicals from plant oils and fatty acids, upgrading of glycerol or ethanol as well as cascades to transform natural L-amino acids into high-value (chiral) compounds. In several examples these processes have demonstrated their efficiency with respect to high space-time yields and low E-factors enabling mature green chemistry processes. Also, the strengths and limitations are discussed and an outlook is provided for improving the existing and developing new cascades.

Abstract
Myo-inositol and its derivatives have been extensively used in the pharmaceutics, cosmetics, and food and feed industries. In recent years, compared with traditional chemical acid hydrolysis, biological methods have been taken as viable and cost-effective ways to myo-inositol production from cheap raw materials. In this review, we provide a thorough overview of the development, progress, current status, and future direction of myo-inositol production (e.g., chemical acid hydrolysis, microbial fermentation, and in vitro enzymatic biocatalysis). The chemical acid hydrolysis of phytate suffers from serious phosphorous pollution and intricate product separation, resulting in myo-inositol production at a high cost. For microbial fermentation, creative strategies have been provided for the efficient myo-inositol biosynthesis by synergetic utilization of glucose and glycerol in Escherichia coli. In vitro cascade enzymatic biocatalysis is a multienzymatic transformation of various substrates to myo-inositol. Here, the different in vitro pathways design, the source of selected enzymes, and the catalytic condition optimization have been summarized and analyzed. Also, we discuss some important existing challenges and suggest several viewpoints. The development of in vitro enzymatic biosystems featuring low cost, high volumetric productivity, flexible compatibility, and great robustness could be one of the promising strategies for future myo-inositol industrial biomanufacturing.

Abstract
Industrial biotechnology is an attractive approach to address the need for low-cost fuels and products from sustainable resources. Unfortunately, cells impose inherent limitations on the effective synthesis and release of target products. One key constraint is that cellular survival objectives often work against the production objectives of biochemical engineers. Additionally, industrial strains release CO2 and struggle to utilize sustainable, potentially profitable feedstocks. Cell-free biotechnology, which uses biological machinery harvested from cells, can address these challenges with advantages including: (i) shorter development times, (ii) higher volumetric production rates, and (iii) tolerance to otherwise toxic molecules. In this review, we highlight recent advances in cell-free technologies toward the production of non-protein products beyond lab-scale demonstrations and describe guiding principles for designing cell-free systems. Specifically, we discuss carbon and energy sources, reaction homeostasis, and scale-up. Expanding the scope of cell-free biomanufacturing practice could enable innovative approaches for the industrial production of green chemicals.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the universal energy currency of life, has a central role in numerous biochemical reactions with potential for the synthesis of numerous high-value products. ATP can be regenerated by three types of mechanisms: substrate level phosphorylation, oxidative phosphorylation, and photophosphorylation. Current ATP regeneration methods are mainly based on substrate level phosphorylation catalyzed by one enzyme, several cascade enzymes, or in vitro synthetic enzymatic pathways. Among them, polyphosphate kinases and acetate kinase, along with their respective phosphate donors, are the most popular approaches for in vitro ATP regeneration. For in vitro artificial pathways, either ATP-free or ATP-balancing strategies can be implemented via smart pathway design by choosing ATP-independent enzymes. Also, we discuss some remaining challenges and suggest perspectives, especially for industrial biomanufacturing. Development of ATP regeneration systems featuring low cost, high volumetric productivity, long lifetime, flexible compatibility, and great robustness could be one of the bottom-up strategies for cascade biocatalysis and in vitro synthetic biology.

Abstract
The wide application of xylose in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, as well as in the booming field of biorefinery, raises the demand for a rapid, accurate, and real-time xylose-sensing technique to rival the conventional methods based on chromatography, spectroscopy, and electrochemical analysis using non-specific enzymes or abiotic catalysts. Herein, a hybrid system comprising polyethylene glycerol swing-arm-tethered NAD+ and xylose dehydrogenase (XDH), coupled with platinum nanoparticles deposited on carbon nanotubes (PtNPs@MWCNTs), was constructed for the real-time sensing of xylose. The use of the PtNPs@MWCNTs composite enhanced the sensitivity of the electric response and reduced the oxidation potential of NADH significantly. Further, the NAD+ immobilization allowed an increase in its microenvironment concentration and facilitated cofactor regeneration. The screen-printed electrode cast with the hybrid system showed a wide xylose detection range of 0.5 to 10 mM or 3.33 to 66.61 mM, and a low detection limit of 0.01 mM or 3.33 mM (S/N = 3), when connected to a potentiostat or a homemade portable biosensor, respectively. The biosensor also exhibited excellent working stability as it retained 82% of its initial performance after 30 days. The analysis of various xylose-containing samples further revealed the merits of our portable xylose biosensor in real-time sensing, including its rapid response, inexpensive instrumentation, and high selectivity, suggesting its great potential in practical applications.

Abstract
The coffee industry produces over 10 billion kg beans per year and generates high amounts of different waste products. Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are an industrially underutilized waste resource, which is rich in the polysaccharide galactomannan, a polysaccharide consisting of a mannose backbone with galactose side groups. Here, we present a cell-free reaction cascade for the conversion of mannose, the most abundant sugar in SCG, into L-lactic acid. The enzymatic conversion is based on a so far unknown oxidative mannose metabolism from Thermoplasma acidophilum and uses a previously characterized mannonate dehydratase to convert mannose into lactic acid via 4 enzymatic reactions. In comparison to known in vivo metabolisms the bioconversion is free of phosphorylated intermediates and cofactors. Assessment of enzymes, adjustment of enzyme loadings, substrate and cofactor concentrations, and buffer ionic strength allowed the identification of crucial reaction parameters and bottlenecks. Moreover, reactions with isotope labeled mannose enabled the monitoring of pathway intermediates and revealed a reverse flux in the conversion process. Finally, 4.4 ± 0.1 mM lactic acid was produced from 14.57 ± 0.7 mM SCG-derived mannose. While the conversion efficiency of the process can be further improved by enzyme engineering, the reaction demonstrates the first multi-enzyme cascade for the bioconversion of SCG.

Abstract
Glucaric acid (GA) is a major value-added chemicals feedstock and additive, especially in the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries. The increasing demand for GA is driving the search for a more efficient and less costly production pathway. In this study, a new in vitro multi-enzyme cascade system was developed, which converts sucrose efficiently to GA in a single vessel. The in vitro system, which does not require adenosine triphosphate (ATP) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) supplementation, contains seven enzymes. All enzymes were chosen from the BRENDA and NCBI databases and were expressed efficiently in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). All seven enzymes were combined in an in vitro cascade system, and the reaction conditions were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the in vitro seven-enzyme cascade system converted 50 mm sucrose to 34.8 mm GA with high efficiency (75 % of the theoretical yield). This system represents an alternative pathway for more efficient and less costly production of GA, which could be adapted for the synthesis of other value-added chemicals.
