Abstract
BACKGROUND Isomaltulose is a 'generally recognized as safe' ingredient and is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The exploration and development of efficient technologies is essential for enhancing isomaltulose yield. RESULTS In the present study, a simple and efficient surface display platform mediated by a non-yeast signal peptide was developed in Yarrowia lipolytica and utilized to efficiently produce isomaltulose from sucrose. We discovered that the signal peptide SP1 of sucrose isomerase from Pantoea dispersa UQ68J (PdSI) could guide SIs anchoring to the cell surface of Y. lipolytica, demonstrating a novel and simple cell surface display strategy. Furthermore, the PdSI expression level was significantly increased through optimizing the promoters and multi-site integrating genes into chromosome. The final strain gained 451.7 g L-1 isomaltulose with a conversion rate of 90.3% and a space-time yield of 50.2 g L-1 h-1. CONCLUSION The present study provides an efficient way for manufacturing isomaltulose with a high space-time yield. This heterogenous signal peptide-mediated cell surface display strategy featured with small fusion tag (approximately 2.2 kDa of SP1), absence of enzyme leakage in fermentation broth and ample room for optimization, providing a convenient way to construct whole-cell biocatalysts to synthesize other products and broadening the array of molecular toolboxes accessible for engineering Y. lipolytica. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Lactose intolerance affects approximately 65% of the global adult population, leading to the demand for lactose-free products. The enzyme β-galactosidase (βG) is commonly used in the industry to produce such products, but its recovery after lactose hydrolysis is challenging. In this scenario, the study aims to encapsulate βG within capsules, varying in dimensions and wall materials, to ensure their suitability for efficient industrial recovery. The enzyme βG was encapsulated through ionic gelation using alginate and its blends with pectin, maltodextrin, starch, or whey protein as wall materials. The capsules produced underwent evaluation for encapsulation efficiency, release profiles, activity of the βG enzyme, and the decline in enzyme activity when reused over multiple cycles. Alginate at 5% wt/vol concentrations, alone or combined with polymers such as maltodextrin, starch, or whey protein, achieved encapsulation efficiencies of approximately 98%, 98%, 80%, and 88%, respectively. The corresponding enzyme recovery rates were 34%, 19%, 31%, and 48%. Capsules made with an alginate-pectin blend exhibited no significant hydrolysis and maintained an encapsulation efficiency of 79%. Encapsulation with alginate alone demonstrated on poor retention of enzyme activity, showing a loss of 74% after just 4 cycles of reuse. Conversely, when alginate was mixed with starch or whey protein concentrate, the loss of enzyme activity was less than 40% after 4 reuses. These results highlight the benefits of combining encapsulation materials to improve enzyme recovery and reuse, offering potential economic advantages for the dairy industry.

Abstract
β-Galactosidases are crucial carbohydrate-active enzymes that naturally catalyze the hydrolysis of galactoside bonds in oligo- and disaccharides. These enzymes are commonly used to degrade lactose and produce low-lactose and lactose-free dairy products that are beneficial for lactose-intolerant people. β-galactosidases exhibit transgalactosylation activity, and they have been employed in the synthesis of galactose-containing compounds such as galactooligosaccharides. However, most β-galactosidases have intrinsic limitations, such as low transglycosylation efficiency, significant product inhibition effects, weak thermal stability, and a narrow substrate spectrum, which greatly hinder their applications. Enzyme engineering offers a solution for optimizing their catalytic performance. The study of the enzyme's structure paves the way toward explaining catalytic mechanisms and increasing the efficiency of enzyme engineering. In this review, the structure features of β-galactosidases from different glycosyl hydrolase families and the catalytic mechanisms are summarized in detail to offer guidance for protein engineering. The properties and applications of β-galactosidases are discussed. Additionally, the latest progress in β-galactosidase engineering and the strategies employed are highlighted. Based on the combined analysis of structure information and catalytic mechanisms, the ultimate goal of this review is to furnish a thorough direction for β-galactosidases engineering and promote their application in the food and dairy industries.

Abstract
Natural sugar substitutes are safe, stable, and nearly calorie-free. Thus, they are gradually replacing the traditional high-calorie and artificial sweeteners in the food industry. Currently, the majority of natural sugar substitutes are extracted from plants, which often requires high levels of energy and causes environmental pollution. Recently, biosynthesis via engineered microbial cell factories has emerged as a green alternative for producing natural sugar substitutes. In this review, recent advances in the biosynthesis of natural sugar substitutes in yeasts are summarized. The metabolic engineering approaches reported for the biosynthesis of oligosaccharides, sugar alcohols, glycosides, and rare monosaccharides in various yeast strains are described. Meanwhile, some unresolved challenges in the bioproduction of natural sugar substitutes in yeast are discussed to offer guidance for future engineering.

Abstract
While the expansion of the erythritol production industry has resulted in unprecedented production of yeast cells, it also suffers from a lack of effective utilization. β-Carotene is a value-added compound that can be synthesized by engineered Yarrowia lipolytica. Here, we first evaluated the production performance of erythritol-producing yeast strains under two different morphologies and then successfully constructed a chassis with yeast-like morphology by deleting Mhy1 and Cla4 genes. Subsequently, β-carotene synthesis pathway genes, CarRA and CarB from Blakeslea trispora, were introduced to construct the β-carotene and erythritol coproducing Y. lipolytica strain ylmcc. The rate-limiting genes GGS1 and tHMG1 were overexpressed to increase the β-carotene yield by 45.32-fold compared with the strain ylmcc. However, increased β-carotene accumulation led to prolonged fermentation time; therefore, transporter engineering through overexpression of YTH1 and YTH3 genes was used to alleviate fermentation delays. Using batch fermentation in a 3 L bioreactor, this engineered Y. lipolytica strain produced erythritol with production, yield, and productivity values of 171 g/L, 0.56 g/g glucose, and 2.38 g/(L·h), respectively, with a concomitant β-carotene yield of 47.36 ± 0.06 mg/g DCW. The approach presented here improves the value of erythritol-producing cells and offers a low-cost technique to obtain hydrophobic terpenoids.

Abstract
Yeasts have been a part of human life since ancient times in the fermentation of many natural products used for food. In addition, in the 20th century, they became powerful tools to elucidate the functions of eukaryotic cells as soon as the techniques of molecular biology developed. Our molecular understandings of metabolism, cellular transport, DNA repair, gene expression and regulation, and the cell division cycle have all been obtained through biochemistry and genetic analysis using different yeasts. In this review, we summarize the role that yeasts have had in biological discoveries, the use of yeasts as biological tools, as well as past and on-going research projects on HMGB proteins along the way from yeast to cancer.

Abstract
Yeast surface display is an appealing technique for constructing multienzyme cascades. This technique is commonly achieved using a scaffold for the ordered arrangement of various enzymes. However, this method is typically complicated because scaffold use may engender extra metabolic burden on the cell host. Here, we established a direct yeast surface codisplay strategy by employing two complementary anchor motifs, Agα1 and Pir1. These motifs allow for the codisplay of sequential uridine diphosphate-glycosyltransferase (UGT) and sucrose synthase (SUS) on the surface of Pichia pastoris (syn. Komagataella phaffii) for the glycosylation of natural products. We manipulated the displayed stoichiometry, amount, and assembly order of UGT and SUS by coupling them with anchor motifs. Furthermore, their effect on enzyme activity was thoroughly investigated. The surface-codisplayed strain UGT-Pir-SUS-Agα exhibited greater thermostability than the single-displayed strains and their free counterparts. Moreover, the strain UGT-Pir-SUS-Agα was successfully applied to glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) glycosylation to produce GA-3-O-Glc, with sucrose being the sugar donor in this process. This generated 7.5- to 20- and 5.3-fold higher GA-3-O-Glc concentration compared with the free counterparts (enzyme mass loading of 20-fold in excess) and mixed single-displayed strains of UGT-Agα and SUS-Pir, respectively. This increase was due to the improved biochemical properties and substrate channeling effect of strain UGT-Pir-SUS-Agα. This controllable direct surface codisplay strategy, based on complementary anchor motifs, is readily extendable to other enzyme cascades.

Abstract
Microbial cell surface display technology provides a powerful platform for engineering proteins/peptides with enhanced properties. Compared to the classical intracellular and extracellular expression (secretion) systems, this technology avoids enzyme purification, substrate transport processes, and is an effective solution to enzyme instability. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is well suited to cell surface display as a common cell factory for the production of various fuels and chemicals, with the advantages of large cell size, being a Generally Regarded As Safe (GRAS) organism, and post-translational processing of secreted proteins. In this review, we describe various strategies for constructing modified S. cerevisiae using cell surface display technology and outline various applications of this technology in industrial processes, such as biofuels and chemical products, environmental pollution treatment, and immunization processes. The approaches for enhancing the efficiency of cell surface display are also discussed.

Abstract
The sugar alcohols and functional sugars have wide applications in food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. However, the smaller quantities of natural occurring sugar alcohols and functional sugars restricted their applications. The enzymatic and whole-cell catalyst production is emerging as the predominant alternatives. The properties of Yarrowia lipolytica make it a promising sugar alcohol and functional sugar producer. However, there are still some issues to be resolved. As there exist reviews about the chemical structures, physicochemical properties, biological functions, applications, and biosynthesis of sugar alcohols and/or functional sugars in Y. lipolytica, this mini review will not only update the recent advances in enzymatic and microbial production of sugar alcohols (erythritol, D-threitol, and xylitol) and functional sugars (isomaltulose, trehalose, fructo-oligosaccharides, and galacto-oligosaccharides) by using recombinant Y. lipolytica but also focus on the studies of gene discovery, pathway engineering, expanding substrate scope, bioprocess engineering, and novel breeding methods to resolve the aforementioned issues.

Abstract
With the demand for green, safe, and continuous biocatalysis, bioscaffolds, compared with synthetic scaffolds, have become a desirable candidate for constructing enzyme assemblages because of their biocompatibility and regenerability. Biocompatibility makes bioscaffolds more suitable for safe and green production, especially in food processing, production of bioactive agents, and diagnosis. The regenerability can enable the engineered biocatalysts regenerate through simple self-proliferation without complex re-modification, which is attractive for continuous biocatalytic processes. In view of the unique biocompatibility and regenerability of bioscaffolds, they can be classified into non-living (polysaccharide, nucleic acid, and protein) and living (virus, bacteria, fungi, spore, and biofilm) bioscaffolds, which can fully satisfy these two unique properties, respectively. Enzymes assembled onto non-living bioscaffolds are based on single or complex components, while enzymes assembled onto living bioscaffolds are based on living bodies.

Abstract
Functional sugars have unique structural and physiological characteristics with applied perspectives for modern biomedical and biotechnological sectors, such as biomedicine, pharmaceutical, cosmeceuticals, green chemistry, and agro-food. They can also be used as starting matrices to produce biologically active metabolites of interests. Though numerous chemical synthesis routes have been proposed and deployed for the synthesis of rare sugars, however, many of them are limited and economically incompetent because of expensive raw starting feedstocks. Whereas, the biosynthesis by enzymatic means are often associated with high catalyst costs and low space-time yields. Microbial production of rare sugars via green routes using bio-renewable resources offers noteworthy solutions to overcome the aforementioned limitations of synthetic and enzymatic synthesis routes. From the microbial-based synthesis perspective, the lipogenic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica is rapidly evolving as the most prevalent and unique "non-model organism" in the bio-production arena. Due to high flux tendency through the tri-carboxylic acid cycle intermediates and precursors such as acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, this yeast has been widely investigated to meet the increasing demand of industrially relevant fine chemicals, including functional sugars. Incredible interest in Y. lipolytica originates from its robust tolerance to unstable pH, salt levels, and organic compounds, which subsequently enable easy bioprocess optimization. Meaningfully, GRAS (generally recognized as safe) status creates Y. lipolytica as an attractive and environmentally friendly microbial host for the manufacturing of nutraceuticals, fermented food, and dietary supplements. In this review, we highlight the recent and state-of-the-art research progress on Y. lipolytica as a host to synthesize bio-based compounds of interest beyond the realm of well-known fatty acid production. The unique physicochemical properties, biotechnological applications, and biosynthesis of an array of value-added functional sugars including erythritol, threitol, fructooligosaccharides, galactooligosaccharides, isomalto-oligosaccharides, isomaltulose, trehalose, erythrulose, xylitol, and mannitol using sustainable carbon sources are thoroughly vetted. Finally, we conclude with perspectives that would be helpful to engineer Y. lipolytica in greening the twenty-first century biomedical and biotechnological sectors of the modern world.

Abstract
Whey, a byproduct of cheese production, is often treated as an industrial dairy waste. A large volume of this product is disposed of annually due to inadequate bioconversion approaches. With its high pollutant load, disposal without pretreatment has raised a lot of environmental concerns alerting the need to seek optimal methods for adequately extracting and utilizing its organic content. In recent years, several techniques for whey valorization have emerged which may serve as interventionary measures against its environmental effects after disposal. In this review, we discuss five major approaches, by which whey can be converted into eco-friendly products, to significantly cut whey wastage. The approaches to whey valorization are therefore examined under the following perspectives: whey as a raw material for the production of bioethanol and prebiotic oligosaccharides via β-galactosidase and microbe catalyzed reactions, for the production of refined lactose as an excipient for pharmaceutical purposes, and the clinical significance of whey hydrolysates and their antifungal activity in food processing.

Abstract
Tripeptide glutathione, which plays important roles in many cellular mechanisms, is also a biotechnology-oriented molecule with applications in medicine, food and cosmetic. Here, the engineering of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica for the production of this metabolite at high titer values from various agro-industrial by-products is reported. The constitutive overexpression of the glutathione biosynthetic genes GSH1 and GSH2 encoding respectively γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase, together with the INU1 gene from Kluyveromyces marxianus encoding inulinase yielded a glutathione titer value and a productivity of 644 nmol/mg protein and 510 µmol/gDCW, respectively. These values were obtained during bioreactor batch cultures in a medium exclusively comprising an extract of Jerusalem artichoke tuber, used as a source of inulin, and ammonium sulfate, used as a nitrogen source.

Abstract
Acid whey, a byproduct in cheese and yogurt production, demands high costs in disposal at large quantities. Nonetheless, it contains abundant sugars and nutrients that can potentially be utilized by microorganisms. Here we report a novel platform technology that converts acid whey into value-added products using Yarrowia lipolytica. Since wild type strains do not assimilate lactose, a major carbon source in whey, a secreted β-galactosidase was introduced. Additionally, to accelerate galactose metabolism, we overexpressed the relevant native four genes of the Leloir pathway. The engineered strain could achieve rapid total conversion of all carbon sources in acid whey, producing 6.61 g/L of fatty acids (FAs) with a yield of 0.146 g-FAs/g-substrates. Further engineering to introduce an omega-3 desaturase enabled the synthesis of α-linolenic acid from acid whey, producing 10.5 mg/gDCW within a short fermentation time. Finally, PEX10 knockout in our platform strain was shown to minimize hyphal formation in concentrated acid whey cultures, greatly improving fatty acid content. These results demonstrate the feasibility of using acid whey as a previously untapped resource for biotechnology.

Abstract
Protein display approaches have been useful to endow the cell surface of yeasts with new catalytic activities so that they can act as enhanced whole-cell biocatalysts. Despite their biotechnological potential, protein display technologies remain poorly developed for filamentous fungi. The lignocellulolytic character of some of them coupled to the cell surface biosynthesis of valuable molecules by a single or a cascade of several displayed enzymes is an appealing prospect. Cell surface protein display consists in the co-translational fusion of a functional protein (passenger) to an anchor one, usually a cell-wall-resident protein. The abundance, spacing, and local environment of the displayed enzymes-determined by the relationship of the anchor protein with the structure and dynamics of the engineered cell wall-are factors that influence the performance of display-based biocatalysts. The development of protein display strategies in filamentous fungi could be based on the field advances in yeasts; however, the unique composition, structure, and biology of filamentous fungi cell walls require the customization of the approach to those microorganisms. In this prospective review, the cellular bases, the design principles, and the available tools to foster the development of cell surface protein display technologies in filamentous fungi are discussed.

Identification, characterization of two NADPH-dependent erythrose reductases in the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica and improvement of erythritol productivity using metabolic engineering. Microb Cell Fact 2018; 17:133. [PMID: 30157840 PMCID: PMC6114734 DOI: 10.1186/s12934-018-0982-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2018] [Accepted: 08/24/2018] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Erythritol is a four-carbon sugar alcohol with sweetening properties that is used by the agro-food industry as a food additive. In the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, the last step of erythritol synthesis involves the reduction of erythrose by specific erythrose reductase(s). In the earlier report, an erythrose reductase gene (YALI0F18590g) from erythritol-producing yeast Y. lipolytica MK1 was identified (Janek et al. in Microb Cell Fact 16:118, 2017). However, deletion of the gene in Y. lipolytica MK1 only resulted in some lower erythritol production but the erythritol synthesis process was still maintained, indicating that other erythrose reductase gene(s) might exist in the genome of Y. lipolytica. RESULTS In this study, we have isolated genes g141.t1 (YALI0D07634g) and g3023.t1 (YALI0C13508g) encoding two novel erythrose reductases (ER). The biochemical characterization of the purified enzymes showed that they have a strong affinity for erythrose. Deletion of the two ER genes plus g801.t1 (YALI0F18590g) did not prevent erythritol synthesis, suggesting that other ER or ER-like enzymes remain to be discovered in this yeast. Overexpression of the newly isolated two genes (ER10 or ER25) led to an average 14.7% higher erythritol yield and 31.2% higher productivity compared to the wild-type strain. Finally, engineering NADPH cofactor metabolism by overexpression of genes ZWF1 and GND1 encoding glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, respectively, allowed a 23.5% higher erythritol yield and 50% higher productivity compared to the wild-type strain. The best of our constructed strains produced an erythritol titer of 190 g/L in baffled flasks using glucose as main carbon source. CONCLUSIONS Our results highlight that in the Y. lipolytica genome several genes encode enzymes able to reduce erythrose into erythritol. The catalytic properties of these enzymes and their cofactor dependency are different from that of already known erythrose reductase of Y. lipolytica. Constitutive expression of the newly isolated genes and engineering of NADPH cofactor metabolism led to an increase in erythritol titer. Development of fermentation strategies will allow further improvement of this productivity in the future.

Abstract
Yeast display is a powerful strategy that consists in exposing peptides or proteins of interest on the cell surface of this microorganism. Ever since initial experiments with this methodology were carried out, its scope has extended and many applications have been successfully developed in different science and technology fields. Several yeast display systems have been designed, which all involve introducting into yeast cells the gene fusions that contain the coding regions of a signal peptide, an anchor protein, to properly attach the target to the cell surface, and the protein of interest to be exposed, all of which are controlled by a strong promoter. In this work, we report the description of such elements for the alternative systems introduced by focusing particularly on anchor proteins. The comparisons made between them are included whenever possible, and the main advantages and inconveniences of each one are discussed. Despite the huge number of publications on yeast surface display and the revisions published to date, this topic has not yet been widely considered. Finally, given the growing interest in developing systems for non-Saccharomyces yeasts, the main strategies reported for some are also summarized.

Abstract
Erythritol, a natural sugar alcohol, is produced industrially by fermentation and crystallization, but this process leaves a large amount of waste erythritol mother liquor (WEML) which contains more than 200 g/L erythritol as well as other polyol byproducts. These impurities make it very difficult to crystallize more erythritol. In our study, an efficient process for the recovery of erythritol from the WEML is described. The polyol impurities were first identified by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and a yeast strain Candida maltosa CGMCC 7323 was then isolated to metabolize those impurities to purify erythritol. Our results demonstrated that the process could remarkably improve the purity of erythritol and thus make the subsequent crystallization easier. This newly developed strategy is expected to have advantages in WEML treatment and provide helpful information with regard to green cell factories and zero-waste processing.

Abstract
An alternative strategy that integrated enzyme production, trehalose biotransformation, and bioremoval in one bioreactor was developed in this study, thus simplifying the traditional procedures used for trehalose production. The trehalose synthase gene from a thermophilic archaea, Picrophilus torridus, was first fused to the YlPir1 anchor gene and then inserted into the genome of Yarrowia lipolytica, thus yielding an engineered yeast strain. The trehalose yield reached 73% under optimal conditions. The thermal and pH stabilities of the displayed enzyme were improved compared to those of its free form purified from recombinant Escherichia coli. After biotransformation, the glucose byproduct and residual maltose were directly fermented to ethanol by a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain. Ethanol can be separated by distillation, and high-purity trehalose can easily be obtained from the fermentation broth. The results show that this one-pot procedure is an efficient approach to the economical production of trehalose from maltose.
