Abstract
Wood-rotting fungi play an important role in the global carbon cycle because they are the only known organisms that digest wood, the largest carbon stock in nature. In the present study, we used linear discriminant analysis and random forest (RF) machine learning algorithms to predict white- or brown-rot decay modes from the numbers of genes encoding Carbohydrate-Active enZymes with over 98% accuracy. Unlike other algorithms, RF identified specific genes involved in cellulose and lignin degradation, including auxiliary activities (AAs) family 9 lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases, glycoside hydrolase family 7 cellobiohydrolases, and AA family 2 peroxidases, as critical factors. This study sheds light on the complex interplay between genetic information and decay modes and underscores the potential of RF for comparative genomics studies of wood-rotting fungi. IMPORTANCE Wood-rotting fungi are categorized as either white- or brown-rot modes based on the coloration of decomposed wood. The process of classification can be influenced by human biases. The random forest machine learning algorithm effectively distinguishes between white- and brown-rot fungi based on the presence of Carbohydrate-Active enZyme genes. These findings not only aid in the classification of wood-rotting fungi but also facilitate the identification of the enzymes responsible for degrading woody biomass.

Abstract
Single-molecule catalysis reflects the heterogeneity of each molecule, providing a unique insight into the complex catalytic mechanism through the statistics of stochastic individuals. However, the present study methods for single-molecule catalysis are either complicated or have low throughput, limiting their rapid acquisition of single-molecule reaction kinetics with statistical significance. Here, a label-free imaging method is developed for the study of single-molecule catalysis in microdroplets with high throughput based on the absorption of the reaction molecules. A wide distribution of the catalytic reaction rate constant value of 238-2026 molecules s-1 is observed from 68 single enzymes. Interestingly, an exponential decayed distribution of the enzyme activity can be clearly observed due to the rapid denaturation of the enzymes. The denaturation mechanism of the Horse Radish Peroxidase (HRP) enzyme is clarified. It is revealed that the denaturation of each enzyme goes through a gradual decay rather than a truncated turn-off process from a single molecule point of view. This absorption-based method can be applied to most of the catalytic reactions with high throughput, which offers an indispensable route for the rapid statistical analysis of various single-molecule catalytic reactions, making it particularly suitable for the acquisition of catalytic kinetics from highly unstable enzymes.

Abstract
Cellulose reducing ends are believed to play a vital role in the cellulose recalcitrance to enzymatic conversion. However, their role in insoluble cellulose accessibility and hydrolysis is not clear. Thus, in this study, reducing ends of insoluble cellulose derived from various sources were modified by applying reducing and/or oxidizing agents. The effects of cellulose reducing ends modification on cellulose reducing ends, cellulose structure, and cellulose accessibility to cellulase were evaluated along with the impact on cellulose hydrolysis with complete as well purified cellulase components. Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) reduction and sodium chlorite-acetic acid (SC/AA) oxidation were able to modify more than 90% and 60% of the reducing ends, respectively, while the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) reagent applied for various cycles oxidized cellulose reducing ends to various extents. X-ray diffractograms of the treated solids showed that these treatments did not change the cellulose crystalline structure and the change in crystallinity index was insignificant. Surprisingly, it was found that the cellulose reducing ends modification, either through selective NaBH4 reduction or BCA oxidation, had a negligible impact on cellulose accessibility as well on cellulose hydrolysis rates or final conversions with complete cellulase at loadings as low as 0.5 mg protein/g cellulose. In fact, in contrast to what is traditionally believed, modifications of cellulose reducing ends by these two methods had no apparent impact on cellulose conversion with purified cellulase components and their synergy. However, SC/AA oxidation resulted in significant drop in cellulose conversion (10%-50%) with complete as well purified cellulase components. Nonetheless, further research revealed that the cause for drop in cellulose conversion for the SC/AA oxidation case was due to primary hydroxyl groups (PHGs) oxidation and not the oxidation of reducing ends. Furthermore, it was found that the PHGs modification affects cellulose accessibility and slows the cellulase uptake as well resulting in significant drop in cellulose conversions.

Abstract
The whole enzymatic conversion of chitin is a green and promising alternative to current strategies, which are based on lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) and chitinases. However, the lack of LPMOs with high activity toward α-chitin limits the efficient bioconversion of α-chitin. Herein, we characterized a high chitin-active LPMO from Oceanobacillus sp. J11TS1 (OsLPMO10A), which could promote the decrystallization of the α-chitin surface. Furthermore, when coupled with OsLPMO10A, the conversion rate of α-chitin to N-acetyl chitobiose [(GlcNAc)2] by three chitinases (Serratia marcescens, ChiA, -B, and -C) reached 30.86%, which was 2.03-folds that without the addition of OsLPMO10A. Moreover, the results of synergistic reactions indicated that OsLPMO10A and chitinases promoted the degradation of α-chitin each other mainly on the surface. To the best of our knowledge, this study achieved the highest yield of N-acetyl chitooligosaccharides (N-acetyl COSs) among reported LPMOs-driven bioconversion systems, which could be regarded as a promising candidate for α-chitin bioconversion.

BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS 2024; 17:39.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The polysaccharides in lignocellulosic biomass hold potential for production of biofuels and biochemicals. However, achieving efficient conversion of this resource into fermentable sugars faces challenges, especially when operating at industrially relevant high solid loadings. While it is clear that combining classical hydrolytic enzymes and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) is necessary to achieve high saccharification yields, exactly how these enzymes synergize at high solid loadings remains unclear. RESULTS An LPMO-poor cellulase cocktail, Celluclast 1.5 L, was spiked with one or both of two fungal LPMOs from Thermothielavioides terrestris and Thermoascus aurantiacus, TtAA9E and TaAA9A, respectively, to assess their impact on cellulose saccharification efficiency at high dry matter loading, using Avicel and steam-exploded wheat straw as substrates. The results demonstrate that LPMOs can mitigate the reduction in saccharification efficiency associated with high dry matter contents. The positive effect of LPMO inclusion depends on the type of feedstock and the type of LPMO and increases with the increasing dry matter content and reaction time. Furthermore, our results show that chelating free copper, which may leak out of the active site of inactivated LPMOs during saccharification, with EDTA prevents side reactions with in situ generated H2O2 and the reductant (ascorbic acid). CONCLUSIONS This study shows that sustaining LPMO activity is vital for efficient cellulose solubilization at high substrate loadings. LPMO cleavage of cellulose at high dry matter loadings results in new chain ends and thus increased water accessibility leading to decrystallization of the substrate, all factors making the substrate more accessible to cellulase action. Additionally, this work highlights the importance of preventing LPMO inactivation and its potential detrimental impact on all enzymes in the reaction.

Abstract
Plants synthesize large amounts of stored and structural polysaccharides. Aspergillus oryzae is used in traditional Japanese fermentation and produces many types of plant polysaccharide degradation-related enzymes. The carbohydrate-active enzymes of A. oryzae are important in the fermentation process and biotechnological applications. Because plant polysaccharides have a complex structure, cooperative and synergistic actions of enzymes are crucial for the degradation of plant polysaccharides. For example, the cooperative action of isoprimeverose-producing oligoxyloglucan hydrolase, β-galactosidase, and α-xylosidase is important for the degradation of xyloglucan, and A. oryzae coordinates these enzymes at the expression level. In this review, I focus on the plant polysaccharide degradation-related enzymes identified in A. oryzae.

Abstract
Cellobiohydrolases are crucial for cellulose breakdown, but their efficiency on crystalline cellulose is hampered by limited access to single chain ends to initiate hydrolysis. As a result, they depend on enzymes like lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs), which directly target the crystalline cellulose surface. This study investigated how LPMO pretreatment affected the productive binding capacity of a Trichoderma longibrachiatum cellobiohydrolase, TlCBHI, on crystalline cellulose by applying an amperometric cellobiose dehydrogenase biosensor. After the 24-hour of LPMO pretreatment, the productive binding capacity of TlCBHI significantly increased in all reactions. However, with a shorter 5-hour LPMO pretreatment, minimal to no effect on productive binding capacity was observed. Of note, all LPMO reactions were inactivated around this time point. This delayed LPMO effect suggests that the improved binding capacity for cellulases does not directly result from cellulose chain cleavage by LPMOs but rather from the cellulose decrystallization following the oxidative cleavage.

J Biol Chem 2023; 299:105094.

Abstract
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are monocopper enzymes that degrade the insoluble crystalline polysaccharides cellulose and chitin. Besides the H2O2 cosubstrate, the cleavage of glycosidic bonds by LPMOs depends on the presence of a reductant needed to bring the enzyme into its reduced, catalytically active Cu(I) state. Reduced LPMOs that are not bound to substrate catalyze reductant peroxidase reactions, which may lead to oxidative damage and irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. However, the kinetics of this reaction remain largely unknown, as do possible variations between LPMOs belonging to different families. Here, we describe the kinetic characterization of two fungal family AA9 LPMOs, TrAA9A of Trichoderma reesei and NcAA9C of Neurospora crassa, and two bacterial AA10 LPMOs, ScAA10C of Streptomyces coelicolor and SmAA10A of Serratia marcescens. We found peroxidation of ascorbic acid and methyl-hydroquinone resulted in the same probability of LPMO inactivation (pi), suggesting that inactivation is independent of the nature of the reductant. We showed the fungal enzymes were clearly more resistant toward inactivation, having pi values of less than 0.01, whereas the pi for SmAA10A was an order of magnitude higher. However, the fungal enzymes also showed higher catalytic efficiencies (kcat/KM(H2O2)) for the reductant peroxidase reaction. This inverse linear correlation between the kcat/KM(H2O2) and pi suggests that, although having different life spans in terms of the number of turnovers in the reductant peroxidase reaction, LPMOs that are not bound to substrates have similar half-lives. These findings have not only potential biological but also industrial implications.

Abstract
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) enzymes have recently shaken up our knowledge of the enzymatic degradation of biopolymers and cellulose in particular. This unique class of metalloenzymes cleaves cellulose and other recalcitrant polysaccharides using an oxidative mechanism. Despite their potential in biomass saccharification and cellulose fibrillation, the detailed mode of action of LPMOs at the surface of cellulose fibers still remains poorly understood and highly challenging to investigate. In this study, we first determined the optimal parameters (temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, and pulp consistency) of LPMO action on the cellulose fibers by analyzing the changes in molar mass distribution of solubilized fibers using high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). Using an experimental design approach with a fungal LPMO from the AA9 family (PaLPMO9H) and cotton fibers, we revealed a maximum decrease in molar mass at 26.6 °C and pH 5.5, with 1.6% w/w enzyme loading in dilute cellulose dispersions (100 mg of cellulose at 0.5% w/v). These optimal conditions were used to further investigate the effect of PaLPMO9H on the cellulosic fiber structure. Direct visualization of the fiber surface by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that PaLPMO9H created cracks on the cellulose surface while it attacked tension regions that triggered the rearrangement of cellulose chains. Solid-state NMR indicated that PaLPMO9H increased the lateral fibril dimension and created novel accessible surfaces. This study confirms the LPMO-driven disruption of cellulose fibers and extends our knowledge of the mechanism underlying such modifications. We hypothesize that the oxidative cleavage at the surface of the fibers releases the tension stress with loosening of the fiber structure and peeling of the surface, thereby increasing the accessibility and facilitating fibrillation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The combination of cellulase and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) is known to boost enzymatic saccharification of cellulose. Although the synergy between cellulases (GH5, 6 or 7) and LPMOs (AA9) has been extensively studied, the interplay between other glycoside hydrolase and LPMO families remains poorly understood. RESULTS In this study, two cellulolytic enzyme-encoding genes SmBglu12A and SmLpmo10A from Streptomyces megaspores were identified and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant SmBglu12A is a non-typical endo-β-1,4-glucanase that preferentially hydrolyzed β-1,3-1,4-glucans and slightly hydrolyzed β-1,4-glucans and belongs to GH12 family. The recombinant SmLpmo10A belongs to a C1-oxidizing cellulose-active LPMO that catalyzed the oxidation of phosphoric acid swollen cellulose to produce celloaldonic acids. Moreover, individual SmBglu12A and SmLpmo10A were both active on barley β-1,3-1,4-glucan, lichenan, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, phosphoric acid swollen cellulose, as well as Avicel. Furthermore, the combination of SmBglu12A and SmLpmo10A enhanced enzymatic saccharification of phosphoric acid swollen cellulose by improving the native and oxidized cello-oligosaccharides yields. CONCLUSIONS These results proved for the first time that the AA10 LPMO was able to boost the catalytic efficiency of GH12 glycoside hydrolases on cellulosic substrates, providing another novel combination of glycoside hydrolase and LPMO for cellulose enzymatic saccharification.

Abstract
Valorizing plant cell wall, marine and algal polysaccharides is of utmost importance for the development of the circular bioeconomy. This is because polysaccharides are by far the most abundant organic molecules found in nature with complex chemical structures that require a large set of enzymes for their degradation. Microorganisms produce polysaccharide-specific enzymes that act in synergy when performing hydrolysis. Although discovered since decades enzyme synergy is still poorly understood at the molecular level and thus it is difficult to harness and optimize. In the last few years, more attention has been given to improve and characterize enzyme synergy for polysaccharide valorization. In this review, we summarize literature to provide an overview of the different type of synergy involving carbohydrate modifying enzymes and the recent advances in the field exemplified by plant cell-wall degradation.
