Abstract
An efficient cofactor regeneration system has been developed to provide a hydride source for the preparation of optically pure alcohols by carbonyl reductase-catalyzed asymmetric reduction. This system employed a novel glucose dehydrogenase (BcGDH90) from Bacillus cereus HBL-AI. The gene encoding BcGDH90 was found through the genome-wide functional annotation. Homology-built model study revealed that BcGDH90 was a homo-tetramer, and each subunit was composed of βD-αE-αF-αG-βG motif, which was responsible for substrate binding and tetramer formation. The gene of BcGDH90 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant BcGDH90 exhibited maximum activity of 45.3 U/mg at pH 9.0 and 40 °C. BcGDH90 showed high stability in a wide pH range of 4.0-10.0 and was stable after the incubation at 55 °C for 5 h. BcGDH90 was not a metal ion-dependent enzyme, but Zn2+ could seriously inhibit its activity. BcGDH90 displayed excellent tolerance to 90% of acetone, methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, and isopropanol. Furthermore, BcGDH90 was applied to regenerate NADPH for the asymmetric biosynthesis of (S)-(+)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol ((S)-PED) from hydroxyacetophenone (2-HAP) with high concentration, which increased the final efficiency by 59.4%. These results suggest that BcGDH90 is potentially useful for coenzyme regeneration in the biological reduction.

[PMID: 34507253 DOI: 10.1016/j.ghir.2021.101429] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2021] [Revised: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 09/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The hormone secretion of GHRH-GH-IGF-1 axis in animals was decreased as aging. These hormones play an important role in maintaining bone mass and bone structure, and also affect the normal structure and function of the skin. We used plasmid-based technology to deliver growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) to elderly mice. In the current study, 80 and 120 μg/kg pVAX-GHRH plasmid expression plasmid were injected into old mice, the serum GHRH and insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1) content were increased within three weeks (P < 0.05). In the groups of 80 and 120 μg/kg plasmid, the content of procollagen type I N-terminal pro-peptide (PINP) in the serum was increased(P < 0.05), and the content of C-terminal telopeptides of type I collagen (CTX-1) in the serum was reduced significantly (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and osteocalcin (OCN) in the femur also was increased(P < 0.05). The bone mineral density(BMD)、trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) and trabecular number(Tb.N) of mouse femur were increased significantly (P < 0.05) and trabecular separation(Tb.Sp) was decreased(P < 0.05). There were more trabecular bones in the bone marrow cavity and the trabecular bones are thicker in the groups of 80 and 120 μg/kg plasmid relative to control. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) content in the skin was increased(P < 0.05), and the malondialdehyde (MDA) content was reduced significantly (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the skin moisture content also increased significantly(P < 0.05). Moreover, the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 3(MMP3) and matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP9) was decreased in the skin(P < 0.05). The thickness of the dermis and epidermis of the skin had increased significantly(P < 0.05). Skin structure is more dense and complete in the two groups. These results indicate that 80 and 120 μg/kg plasmid-mediated GHRH supplementation can improve osteoporosis and skin aging in aged mice.

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2020; 104:4093-4107. [PMID: 32162090 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-020-10509-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2019] [Revised: 02/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/28/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
2-Phenylethanol (2-PE) is an important flavor compound but also impairs cell growth severely, which in turn blocks its bioproduction. However, the molecular mechanism of 2-PE tolerance is unclear. In this study, a superb 2-PE stress-tolerant and producing yeast, Candida glycerinogenes, was selected to uncover the underlying mechanism of 2-PE tolerance. We discovered that Hap5 is an essential regulator to 2-PE resistance, and its induction by 2-PE stress occurs at the post-transcriptional level, rather than at the transcriptional level. Under 2-PE stress, Hap5 is activated and imported into the nucleus rapidly. Then, the nuclear Hap5 binds to the glutathione synthetase (gsh2) promoter via CCAAT box, to induce the expression of gsh2 gene. The increased gsh2 expression contributes to enhanced cellular glutathione content, and consequently alleviates ROS accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and cell membrane damage caused by 2-PE toxicity. Specifically, increasing the expression of gsh2 is effective in improving not just 2-PE tolerance (33.7% higher biomass under 29 mM 2-PE), but also 2-PE production (16.2% higher). This study extends our knowledge of 2-PE tolerance mechanism and also provides a promising strategy to improve 2-PE production.
