Discovery of new strains for furfural degradation using adaptive laboratory evolution in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 459:132090. [PMID: 37480608 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.132090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/24/2023]
Abstract
In industrial production, the excessive discharge of furfural can pose harm to soil microorganisms, aquatic animals and plants, as well as humans. Therefore, it is crucial to develop efficient and cost-effective methods for degrading furfural in the environment. Currently, the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for furfural degradation in water has shown effectiveness, but there is a need to explore improved efficiency and tolerance in S. cerevisiae for this purpose. In this study, we isolated and evolved highly efficient furfural degradation strains, namely YBA_08 and F60C. These strains exhibited remarkable capabilities, degrading 59% and 99% furfural in the YPD medium after 72 h of incubation, significantly higher than the 31% achieved by the model strain S288C. Through analysis of the efficient degradation mechanism in the evolutionary strain F60C, we discovered a 326% increase in the total amount of NADH and NADPH. This increase likely promotes faster furfural degradation through intracellular aldehyde reductases. Moreover, the decrease in NADPH content led to a 406% increase in glutathione content at the background level, which protects cells from damage caused by reactive oxygen species. Mutations and differential expression related to cell cycle and cell wall synthesis were observed, enabling cell survival in the presence of furfural and facilitating rapid furfural degradation and growth recovery. Based on these findings, it is speculated that strains YBA_08 and F60C have the potential to contribute to furfural degradation in water and the production of furfuryl alcohol, ethanol, and FDCA in biorefinery processes.

Abstract
There is a potential safety risk with ethyl carbamate (EC) in Hongqu Huangjiu production; 90% of the EC in rice wine is produced by the reaction of the urea with the alcohol of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In our previous experiments, we screened and obtained a S. cerevisiae strain JH301 that offered low urea production. However, the key genes responsible for low urea production of strain JH301 remain unclear. Here, the whole genome sequencing of S. cerevisiae strain JH301 was accomplished via a next-generation high-throughput sequencing and long-read sequencing technology. There are six main pathways related to the urea metabolism of strain JH301 based on KEGG pathway mapping. Three species-specific genes are related to the urea metabolism pathways and were found in comparative genome analysis between strains JH301 and S288c during Hongqu Huangjiu production for the first time. Finally, the ARG80 gene was found to be likely a key gene responsible for low urea production of S. cerevisiae strain JH301, as determined by PCR and qRT-PCR check analyses from DNA and RNA levers. In conclusion, the results are useful for a scientific understanding of the mechanism of low urea production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae during Hongqu Huangjiu fermentation. It also is important to control the urea and EC contents in Hongqu Huangjiu production.

Whole-Genome Sequence and Comparative Analysis of Trichoderma asperellum ND-1 Reveal Its Unique Enzymatic System for Efficient Biomass Degradation. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
The lignocellulosic enzymes of Trichoderma asperellum have been intensely investigated toward efficient conversion of biomass into high-value chemicals/industrial products. However, lack of genome data is a remarkable hurdle for hydrolase systems studies. The secretory enzymes of newly isolated T. asperellum ND-1 during lignocellulose degradation are currently poorly known. Herein, a high-quality genomic sequence of ND-1, obtained by both Illumina HiSeq 2000 sequencing platforms and PacBio single-molecule real-time, has an assembly size of 35.75 Mb comprising 10,541 predicted genes. Secretome analysis showed that 895 proteins were detected, with 211 proteins associated with carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) responsible for biomass hydrolysis. Additionally, T. asperellum ND-1, T. atroviride IMI 206040, and T. virens Gv-298 shared 801 orthologues that were not identified in T. reesei QM6a, indicating that ND-1 may play critical roles in biological-control. In-depth analysis suggested that, compared with QM6a, the genome of ND-1 encoded a unique enzymatic system, especially hemicellulases and chitinases. Moreover, after comparative analysis of lignocellulase activities of ND-1 and other fungi, we found that ND-1 displayed higher hemicellulases (particularly xylanases) and comparable cellulases activities. Our analysis, combined with the whole-genome sequence information, offers a platform for designing advanced T. asperellum ND-1 strains for industrial utilizations, such as bioenergy production.

Dominance of wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains over S. kudriavzevii in industrial fermentation competitions is related to an acceleration of nutrient uptake and utilization. Environ Microbiol 2019; 21:1627-1644.

Abstract
Grape must is a sugar-rich habitat for a complex microbiota which is replaced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains during the first fermentation stages. Interest on yeast competitive interactions has recently been propelled due to the use of alternative yeasts in the wine industry to respond to new market demands. The main issue resides in the persistence of these yeasts due to the specific competitive activity of S. cerevisiae. To gather deeper knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved, we performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis during fermentation carried out by a wine S. cerevisiae strain and a strain representative of the cryophilic S. kudriavzevii, which exhibits high genetic and physiological similarities to S. cerevisiae, but also differences of biotechnological interest. In this study, we report that transcriptomic response to the presence of a competitor is stronger in S. cerevisiae than in S. kudriavzevii. Our results demonstrate that a wine S. cerevisiae industrial strain accelerates nutrient uptake and utilization to outcompete the co-inoculated yeast, and that this process requires cell-to-cell contact to occur. Finally, we propose that this competitive phenotype evolved recently, during the adaptation of S. cerevisiae to man-manipulated fermentative environments, since a non-wine S. cerevisiae strain, isolated from a North American oak, showed a remarkable low response to competition.
