Abstract
Microbial polysaccharides (MPs) are biopolymers secreted by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi during their metabolic processes. Compared to polysaccharides derived from plants and animals, MPs have advantages such as wide sources, high production efficiency, and less susceptibility to natural environmental influences. The most attractive feature of MPs lies in their diverse biological activities, such as antioxidative, anti-tumor, antibacterial, and immunomodulatory activities, which have demonstrated immense potential for applications in functional foods, cosmetics, and biomedicine. These bioactivities are precisely regulated by their sophisticated molecular structure. However, the mechanisms underlying this precise regulation are not yet fully understood and continue to evolve. This article presents a comprehensive review of the most representative species of MPs, including their fermentation and purification processes and their biomedical applications in recent years. In particular, this work presents an in-depth analysis into the structure-activity relationships of MPs across multiple molecular levels. Additionally, this review discusses the challenges and prospects of investigating the structure-activity relationships, providing valuable insights into the broad and high-value utilization of MPs.

Abstract
The manufacture, purification, and applications of hyaluronic acid (HA) are discussed in this article. Concerning the growing need for affordable, high-quality HA, it is essential to consider diverse production techniques using renewable resources that pose little risk of cross-contamination. Many microorganisms can now be used to produce HA without limiting the availability of raw materials and in an environmentally friendly manner. The production of HA has been associated with Streptococci A and C, explicitly S. zooepidemicus and S. equi. Different fermentation techniques, including the continuous, batch, fed-batch, and repeated batch culture, have been explored to increase the formation of HA, particularly from S. zooepidemicus. The topic of current interest also involves a complex broth rich in metabolites and residual substrates, intensifying downstream processes to achieve high recovery rates and purity. Although there are already established methods for commercial HA production, the anticipated growth in trade and the diversification of application opportunities necessitate the development of new procedures to produce HA with escalated productivity, specified molecular weights, and purity. In this report, we have enacted the advancement of HA technical research by analyzing bacterial biomanufacturing elements, upstream and downstream methodologies, and commercial-scale HA scenarios.

Abstract
Currently, microbial manufacturing is widely used in various fields, such as food, medicine and energy, for its advantages of greenness and sustainable development. Process optimization is the committed step enabling the commercialization of microbial manufacturing products. However, the present optimization processes mainly rely on experience or trial-and-error method ignoring the intrinsic connection between cellular physiological requirement and production performance, so in many cases the productivity of microbial manufacturing could not been fully exploited at economically feasible cost. Recently, the rapid development of omics technologies facilitates the comprehensive analysis of microbial metabolism and fermentation performance from multi-levels of molecules, cells and microenvironment. The use of omics technologies makes the process optimization more explicit, boosting microbial manufacturing performance and bringing significant economic benefits and social value. In this paper, the traditional and omics technologies-guided process optimization of microbial manufacturing are systematically reviewed, and the future trend of process optimization is prospected.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA), an anionic and nonsulfated glycosaminoglycan, is the main structural component of various tissues and plays an important role in various biological processes. Given the promising properties of HA, such as high cellular compatibility, moisture retention, antiaging, proper interaction with cells, and CD44 targeting, HA can be widely used extensively in drug delivery, tissue engineering, wound healing, and cancer therapy. HA can obtain from animal tissues and microbial fermentation, but its applications depend on its molecular weight. Microbial fermentation is a common method for HA production on an industrial scale and S. zooepidemicus is the most frequently used strain in HA production. Culture conditions including pH, temperature, agitation rate, aeration speed, shear stress, dissolved oxygen, and bioreactor type significantly affect HA biosynthesis properties. In this review all the HA production methods and purification techniques to improve its physicochemical and biological properties for various biomedical applications are discussed in details. In addition, we showed that how HA molecular weight can significantly affect its properties and applications.

Abstract
This study reveals the genetic and biochemical changes underlying the enhanced hyaluronan (HA) biosynthesis in Streptococcus zooepidemicus. After multiple rounds of atmospheric and room temperature plasma (ARTP) mutagenesis combined with novel bovine serum albumin/cetyltrimethylammonium bromide coupled high-throughput screening assay, the HA yield of the mutant was increased by 42.9% and reached 0.813 g L-1 with a molecular weight of 0.54 × 106 Da within 18 h by shaking flask culture. HA production was increased to 4.56 g L-1 by batch culture in 5-L fermenter. Transcriptome sequencing exhibits that distinct mutants have similar genetic changes. Regulation in direction of metabolic flow into the HA biosynthesis, by enhancing genes responsible for the biosynthesis of HA including hasB, glmU and glmM, weaking downstream gene (nagA and nagB) of UDP-GlcNAc and significantly down-regulating transcription of wall-synthesizing genes, resulting in the accumulation of precursors (UDP-GlcA and UDP-GlcNAc) increased by 39.74% and 119.22%, respectively. These associated regulatory genes may provide control point for engineering of the efficient HA-producing cell factory.

Development of In Situ Product Recovery (ISPR) System Using Amberlite IRA67 for Enhanced Biosynthesis of Hyaluronic Acid by Streptococcus zooepidemicus. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:life13020558.

Abstract
High broth viscosity due to the accumulation of hyaluronic acid (HA) causes a limited yield of HA. It is a major problem of HA production using Streptococcus zooepidemicus. Extractive fermentation via in situ product recovery (ISPR) was utilized to enhance the HA production. Resins from Amberlite: IRA400 Cl; IRA900 Cl; IRA410 Cl; IRA402 Cl; and IRA67 were tested for the HA adsorption. IRA67 showed high adsorption capacity on HA. The study of the adsorption via a 2 L stirred tank bioreactor of S. zooepidemicus fermentation was investigated to elucidate the adsorption of HA onto IRA67 in dispersed and integrated internal column systems. The application of a dispersed IRA67 improved the HA production compared to the fermentation without resin addition by 1.37-fold. The HA production was further improved by 1.36-fold with an internal column (3.928 g/L) over that obtained with dispersed IRA67. The cultivation with an internal column shows the highest reduction of viscosity value after the addition of IRA67 resin: from 58.8 to 23.7 (mPa·s), suggesting the most effective ISPR of HA. The improved biosynthesis of HA indicated that an extractive fermentation by ISPR adsorption is effective and may streamline the HA purification.

Abstract
The unique biological and rheological properties make hyaluronic acid a sought-after material for medicine and cosmetology. Due to very high purity requirements for hyaluronic acid in medical applications, the profitability of streptococcal fermentation is reduced. Production of hyaluronic acid by recombinant systems is considered a promising alternative. Variations in combinations of expressed genes and fermentation conditions alter the yield and molecular weight of produced hyaluronic acid. This review is devoted to the current state of hyaluronic acid production by recombinant bacterial and fungal organisms.

Abstract
Background Background: Hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural polymer with wide applications in biomedicine and cosmetics, is mainly produced by Streptococcal fermentation at industrial scale. In the present study, chemical random mutagenesis was used for development of Streptococcus equisimilis group G mutant strains with high HA productivity. Methods Methods: The optimum of the pH of culture condition and cultivation time for HA production by wild strain group G were assessed. At first, two rounds of mutation at different concentrations of NTG was used for mutagenesis. Then, the nonhemolytic and hyaluronidase-negative mutants were screened on the blood and HA agar. HA productivity and molecular weight were determined by carbazole assay, agarose gel electrophoresis and specific staining. Moreover, stability of the high producer mutants was evaluated within 10 generations. Results Results: The results showed that the wild-type strain produced 1241 ± 2.1 µg/ml of HA at pH 5.5 and 4 hours of cultivation, while the screened mutants showed a 16.1-45.5% increase in HA production. Two mutant strains, named Gm2-120-21-3 (2470 ± 8.1 µg/ml) and Gm2-120-21-4 (2856 ± 4.2 µg/ml), indicated the highest titer and a consistent production. The molecular weight (Mw) of HA for the mutants was less than 160 kDa, considering as a low Mw HA. Conclusion Conclusion: The mutant strains producing a low polydisperse, as well as low Mw of HA with high titer might be regarded as potential industrial strains for HA production after further safety investigations.

Abstract
Since it is known that hyaluronic acid contributes to soft tissue growth, elasticity, and scar reduction, different strategies of producing HA have been explored in order to satisfy the current demand of HA in pharmaceutical products and formulations. The current interest deals with production via bacterial and yeast fermentation and extraction from animal sources; however, the main challenge is the right extraction technique and strategy since the original sources (e.g., fermentation broth) represent a complex system containing a number of components and solutes, which complicates the achievement of high extraction rates and purity. This review sheds light on the main pathways for the production of HA, advantages, and disadvantages, along with the current efforts in extracting and purifying this high-added-value molecule from different sources. Particular emphasis has been placed on specific case studies attempting production and successful recovery. For such works, full details are given together with their relevant outcomes.

Recently, the possibility of producing HA from harmless microorganisms appeared, which offers the opportunity to make HA more economical, without raw material limitations, and environmentally friendly. HA production is mainly reported with Lancefield Streptococci A and C, particularly from S. equi and S. zooepidemicus. Various modes of fermentation such as batch, repeated batch, fed-batch, and continuous culture have been investigated to optimize HA production, particularly from S. zooepidemicus, obtaining a HA yield of 2.5 g L−1 – 7.0 g L−1. Among the different utilized DSP approaches of HA production, recovery with cold ethanol (4°C) and cetylpyridinium chloride is the ideal strategy for lab-scale HA production. On the industrial scale, besides using isopropanol, filtration (0.22 um), ultrafiltration (100 kDa), and activated carbon absorption are employed to obtain HA of low molecular weight and additional ultrafiltration to purify HA of higher MW. Even though mature technologies have already been developed for the industrial production of HA, the projections of increased sales volume and the expansion of application possibilities require new processes to obtain HA with higher productivity, purity, and specific molecular weights. In this review, we have put forth the progress of HA technological research by discussing the microbial biosynthetic aspects, fermentation and downstream strategies, industrial-scale scenarios of HA, and the prospects of HA production to meet the current and ongoing market demands.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally formed acidic mucopolysaccharide, with excellent moisturising properties and used widely in the medicine, cosmetics, and food industries. The industrial production of specific molecular weight HA has become imperative. Different biological activities and physiological functions of HA mainly depend on the degree of polymerisation. This article reviews the research status and development prospects of the green biosynthesis and molecular weight regulation of HA. There is an application-based prerequisite of specific molecular weight of HA that could be regulated either during the fermentation process or via a controlled HA degradation process. This work provides an important theoretical basis for the downstream efficient production of diversified HA, which will further accelerate the research applications of HA and provide a good scientific basis and method reference for the study of the molecular weight regulation of similar biopolymers.

Abstract
Owing to its outstanding water-retention ability, viscoelasticity, biocompatibility and non-immunogenicity, Hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural linear polymer alternating linked by d-glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine, has been widely employed in cosmetic, medical and clinical applications. With the development of synthetic biology and bioprocessing optimization, HA production via microbial fermentation is an economical and sustainable alternative over traditional animal extraction methods. Indeed, recently Streptococci and other recombinant systems for HA synthesis has received increasing interests due to its technical advantages. This review summarizes the production of HA by microorganisms and demonstrates its synthesis mechanism, focusing on the current status in various production systems, as well as common synthetic biology strategies include driving more carbon flux into HA biosynthesis and regulating the molecular weight (MW), and finally discusses the major challenges and prospects.

Abstract
Oligosaccharides and polysaccharides constitute the principal components of carbohydrates, which are important biomacromolecules that demonstrate considerable bioactivities. However, the variety and structural complexity of oligo/polysaccharides represent a major challenge for biological and structural explorations. To access structurally defined oligo/polysaccharides, biological strategies using glycoenzyme biocatalysts have shown remarkable synthetic potential attributed to their regioselectivity and stereoselectivity that allow mild, structurally controlled reaction without addition of protecting groups necessary in chemical strategies. This review summarizes recent biotechnological approaches of oligo/polysaccharide synthesis, which mainly includes in vitro enzymatic synthesis and cell factory synthesis. We have discussed the important factors involved in the production of nucleotide sugars. Furthermore, the strategies established in the cell factory and enzymatic syntheses are summarized, and we have highlighted concepts like metabolic flux rebuilding and regulation, enzyme engineering, and route design as important strategies. The research challenges and prospects are also outlined and discussed.

Deciphering the role of dissolved oxygen and N-acetyl glucosamine in governing higher molecular weight hyaluronic acid synthesis in Streptococcus zooepidemicus cell factory. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2020; 104:3349-3365. [PMID: 32078020 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-020-10445-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2019] [Revised: 01/27/2020] [Accepted: 02/06/2020] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
The present study is focused on systematic process and kinetic investigation of hyaluronic acid (HA) production strategy unraveling the role of dissolved oxygen (DO) and N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) towards the enhancement of HA titer and its molecular weight. Maintaining excess DO levels (10-40% DO) through DO-stat control and the substitution of GlcNAc at a range (5-20 g/L) with glucose (Glc) critically influenced HA production. DO-stat control strategy yielded a promising HA titer (2.4 g/L) at 40% DO concentration. Controlling DO level at 20% (DO-stat) was observed to be optimum resulting in a significant HA production (2.1 g/L) and its molecular weight ranging 0.98-1.45 MDa with a consistent polydispersity index (PDI) (1.57-1.69). Substitution of GlcNAc with Glc at different proportions explicitly addressed the metabolic trade-off between HA titer and its molecular weight. GlcNAc substitution positively influenced the molecular weight of HA. The highest HA molecular weight (2.53 MDa) of two-fold increase compared with glucose as sole carbon substrate and narrower PDI (1.35 ± 0.18) was achieved for the 10:20 (Glc:GlcNAc) proportion. A novice attempt on modeling the uptake of dual substrates (Glc and GlcNAc) by Streptococcus zooepidemicus for HA production was successfully accomplished using double Andrew's growth model and the kinetic parameters were estimated reliably.
