Nakanishi A, Zhang K, Matsumoto R, Yamamoto N. Estimation of Carbon Metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Acclimatized to Glycerol Assimilation with Quantitative PCR. Microorganisms 2022; 10:1173. [PMID: 35744691 PMCID: PMC9231053 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10061173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Revised: 05/23/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Saccharomyces cerevisiae has the potential to produce value-added chemicals; however, this strain is restricted by using glycerol as a carbon source. Although acclimatization of S. cerevisiae as a glycerol-assimilating strain was confirmed so far, the reason why S. cerevisiae can be acclimatized was not clear in detail with limited information on the metabolic changes. In this report, glycerol-assimilating strains from S. cerevisiae BY4741 were isolated, and the biomass production, ethanol fermentation, and transcription levels related to glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle under aerobic and slightly anaerobic conditions were analyzed. As the results show, although µmax was equal to 0.15 h-1 between wildtype and glycerol-assimilating strains in an aerobic culture including glucose, the differences in max biomass production and percentage yields of ethanol and transcription levels between the two strains were shown. In slightly anaerobic culture, the differences in transcription levels downstream of glycolysis were also displayed. In the case of the glycerol-assimilating strain with glycerol under aerobic conditions, although the transcription levels related to ethanol production were sufficient, the ethanol production was not detected. Additionally, the biomass production reached a plateau even in the culture containing sufficient glycerol, indicating that the redox imbalance even in the cells of the glycerol-acclimatized strain could disturb the utilization of glycerol. The obtained knowledge will promote the use of glycerol resources with the glycerol-acclimatized S. cerevisiae in view of carbon recycling.

Abstract
Great interests have recently been aroused in the independent associative domain of glycoside hydrolases that utilize insoluble polysaccharides-carbohydrate-binding module (CBM), which responds to binding while the catalytic domain reacts with the substrate. In this mini-review, we first provide a brief introduction on CBM and its subtypes including the classifications, potential sources, structures, and functions. Afterward, the applications of CBMs in substrate recognition based on different types of CBMs have been reviewed. Additionally, the progress of CBMs in paper industry as a new type of environmentally friendly auxiliary agent for fiber treatment is summarized. At last, other applications of CBMs and the future outlook have prospected. Due to the specificity in substrate recognition and diversity in structures, CBM can be a prosperous and promising 'tool' for wood and fiber processing in the future.

Abstract
The cell surface display system in yeast enables the innovative strategy for improving cellular functions in a wide range of applications such as biofuel production, bioremediation, synthesis of valuable chemicals, recovery of rare metal ions, development of biosensors, and high-throughput screening of protein/peptide library. Display of enzymes for polysaccharide degradation enables the construction of metabolically engineered whole-cell biocatalyst owing to the accessibility of the displayed enzymes to high-molecular-weight polysaccharides. In addition, along with fluorescence-based activity evaluation, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), and yeast cell chip, the cell surface display system is an effective molecular tool for high-throughput screening of mutated protein/peptide library. In this article, we describe the methods for cell surface display of proteins/peptides of interest on yeast, evaluation of display efficiency, and harvesting of the displayed proteins/peptides from cell surface.

Abstract
Cell surface display of proteins/peptides has been established based on mechanisms of localizing proteins to the cell surface. In contrast to conventional intracellular and extracellular (secretion) expression systems, this method, generally called an arming technology, is particularly effective when using yeasts as a host, because the control of protein folding that is often required for the preparation of proteins can be natural. This technology can be employed for basic and applied research purposes. In this review, I describe various strategies for the construction of engineered yeasts and provide an outline of the diverse applications of this technology to industrial processes such as the production of biofuels and chemicals, as well as bioremediation and health-related processes. Furthermore, this technology is suitable for novel protein engineering and directed evolution through high-throughput screening, because proteins/peptides displayed on the cell surface can be directly analyzed using intact cells without concentration and purification. Functional proteins/peptides with improved or novel functions can be created using this beneficial, powerful, and promising technique.

Abstract
Artificial evolution of proteins with the aim of acquiring novel or improved functionality is important for practical applications of the proteins. We have developed yeast cell surface engineering methods (or arming technology) for evolving enzymes. Here, we have described yeast cell surface engineering coupled with in vivo homologous recombination and library screening as a method for the artificial evolution of enzymes such as firefly luciferases. Using this method, novel luciferases with improved substrate specificity and substrate reactivity were engineered.

Abstract
Cell surface display of proteins/peptides, in contrast to the conventional intracellular expression, has many attractive features. This arming technology is especially effective when yeasts are used as a host, because eukaryotic modifications that are often required for functional use can be added to the surface-displayed proteins/peptides. A part of various cell wall or plasma membrane proteins can be genetically fused to the proteins/peptides of interest to be displayed. This technology, leading to the generation of so-called "arming technology", can be employed for basic and applied research purposes. In this article, we describe various strategies for the construction of arming yeasts, and outline the diverse applications of this technology to industrial processes such as biofuel and chemical productions, pollutant removal, and health-related processes, including oral vaccines. In addition, arming technology is suitable for protein engineering and directed evolution through high-throughput screening that is made possible by the feature that proteins/peptides displayed on cell surface can be directly analyzed using intact cells without concentration and purification. Actually, novel proteins/peptides with improved or developed functions have been created, and development of diagnostic/therapeutic antibodies are likely to benefit from this powerful approach.
