Abstract
A new platform has been developed to facilitate the production of biologically active proteins and peptides in Escherichia coli. The platform includes an N-terminal self-associating L6 KD peptide fused to the SUMO protein (small ubiquitin-like protein modifier) from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is known for its chaperone activity. The target proteins are fused at the C termini of the L6 KD-SUMO fusions, and the resulting three-component fusion proteins are synthesized and self-assembled in E. coli into so-called active inclusion bodies (AIBs). In vivo, the L6 KD-SUMO platform facilitates the correct folding of the target proteins and directs them into AIBs, greatly simplifying their purification. In vitro, the platform facilitates the effective separation of AIBs by centrifugation and subsequent target protein release using SUMO-specific protease. The properties of the AIBs were determined using five proteins with different sizes, folding efficiencies, quaternary structure, and disulfide modifications. Electron microscopy shows that AIBs are synthesized in the form of complex fibrillar structures resembling "loofah sponges" with unusually thick filaments. The obtained results indicate that the new platform has promising features and could be developed to facilitate the synthesis and purification of target proteins and protein complexes without the use of renaturation.

Abstract
Galactooligosaccharides obtained via β-galactosidase transgalactosylation have health-promoting properties and are widely recognized as effective prebiotics. Trehalose-based galactooligosaccharides could be introduced into food and pharmaceutical industries similarly to trehalose. In light of this, new technological approaches are needed. Recently, in vivo enzyme immobilizations for recombinant proteins have been introduced, and physiological aggregation into active inclusion bodies (aIBs) has emerged as one such method of in vivo immobilization. To prepare LacZ β-galactosidase in the form of aIBs, we used a short 10 amino acid aggregation-prone tag. These native protein particles were simply washed from the cell lysate and applied in trehalose galactosylation in a recycled batch mode. In this study, aIBs entrapped in alginate beads, encapsulated in alginate/cellulose sulfate/poly(methylene-co-guanidine) capsules and magnetized were compared with free aIBs. Alginate/cellulose sulfate/PMCG capsules showed more suitable properties and applicability for biotransformation of trehalose at its high concentration (25%, w/v) and elevated temperature (50 °C).

Abstract
The expression of correctly folded and functional heterologous proteins is important in many biotechnological production processes, whether it is enzymes, biopharmaceuticals or biosynthetic pathways for production of sustainable chemicals. For industrial applications, bacterial platform organisms, such as E. coli, are still broadly used due to the availability of tools and proven suitability at industrial scale. However, expression of heterologous proteins in these organisms can result in protein aggregation and low amounts of functional protein. This review provides an overview of the cellular mechanisms that can influence protein folding and expression, such as co-translational folding and assembly, chaperone binding, as well as protein quality control, across different model organisms. The knowledge of these mechanisms is then linked to different experimental methods that have been applied in order to improve functional heterologous protein folding, such as codon optimization, fusion tagging, chaperone co-production, as well as strain and protein engineering strategies.

Abstract
Catalytically active inclusion bodies (CatIBs) are promising biologically produced enzyme/protein immobilizates for application in biocatalysis, synthetic chemistry, and biomedicine. CatIB formation is commonly induced by fusion of suitable aggregation-inducing tags to a given target protein. Heterologous production of the fusion protein in turn yields CatIBs. This chapter presents the methodology needed to design, produce, and characterize CatIBs.

Abstract
The covalent immobilisation of enzymes generally involves the use of highly reactive crosslinkers, such as glutaraldehyde, to couple enzyme molecules to each other or to carriers through, for example, the free amino groups of lysine residues, on the enzyme surface. Unfortunately, such methods suffer from a lack of precision. Random formation of covalent linkages with reactive functional groups in the enzyme leads to disruption of the three dimensional structure and accompanying activity losses. This review focuses on recent advances in the use of bio-orthogonal chemistry in conjunction with rec-DNA to affect highly precise immobilisation of enzymes. In this way, cost-effective combination of production, purification and immobilisation of an enzyme is achieved, in a single unit operation with a high degree of precision. Various bio-orthogonal techniques for putting this precision and elegance into enzyme immobilisation are elaborated. These include, for example, fusing (grafting) peptide or protein tags to the target enzyme that enable its immobilisation in cell lysate or incorporating non-standard amino acids that enable the application of bio-orthogonal chemistry.

Abstract
Biocatalysis and biotransformations have a broad application in industrial synthetic chemistry. In addition to the whole cell catalysis, purified recombinant enzymes are successfully used for biocatalysis of specific chemical reactions. In this contribution, we report characterization, immobilization, and application of several model target enzymes (D-amino acid oxidase, sialic acid aldolase, maltodextrin phosphorylase, polyphosphate kinase, UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase) physiologically aggregated within inclusion bodies retaining their biological activity as immobilized biocatalysts.

Abstract
The production of recombinant proteins using microbial cell factories is frequently associated with the formation of inclusion bodies (IBs). These proteinaceous entities can be sometimes a reservoir of stable and active protein, might display good biocompatibility, and are produced efficiently and cost-effectively. Thus, these submicrometric particles are increasingly exploited as functional biomaterials for biotechnological and biomedical purposes. The fusion of aggregation-prone sequences to the target protein is a successful strategy to sequester soluble recombinant polypeptides into IBs. Traditionally, the use of these IB-tags results in the formation of amyloid-like scaffolds where the protein of interest is trapped. This amyloid conformation might compromise the protein's activity and be potentially cytotoxic. One promising alternative to overcome these limitations exploits the coiled-coil fold, composed of two or more α-helices and widely used by nature to create supramolecular assemblies. In this review, we summarize the state-of-the-art of functional IBs technology, focusing on the coiled-coil-assembly strategy, describing its advantages and applications, delving into future developments and necessary improvements in the field.

Abstract
Sugar nucleotide-dependent (Leloir) glycosyltransferases are powerful catalysts for glycoside synthesis. Their applicability can be limited due to elaborate production of enzyme preparations deployable in biocatalytic processes. Here, we show that efficient enzyme formulation promotes glycosyltransferases for the synthesis of the natural C-glycoside nothofagin. Adding Brij-35 detergent (1 %, w/v) during sonication of the E. coli BL21-Gold (DE3) expression strain, recovery of Oryza sativa C-glycosyltransferase was enhanced by ∼3-fold, partly due to the release of enzyme activity trapped in insoluble pellet. Freeze drying of the resulting cell-free extract (∼17 U ml-1) reduced the volume ∼20-fold and gave ∼55 mg solids ml-1 liquid processed, with 83 % retention of the original activity and a specific activity of 0.20 U mg-1 solids. The Glycine max sucrose synthase was processed analogously, giving a solid enzyme preparation of 0.28 U mg-1 in 63 % yield. Both enzyme formulations were stable for several weeks. The glycosyltransferase cascade reaction for 3'-β-C-glucosylation of phloretin (60 mM; as inclusion complex with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin) from UDP-glucose (generated in situ by sucrose synthase from 500 mM sucrose and 0.5 mM UDP) showed excellent performance metrics (≥ 98 % yield; 3.2 g l-1 h-1 space-time yield; ∼90 regeneration cycles for UDP). Collectively, our study demonstrates a facile procedure for solid glycosyltransferase formulations practically usable in glycoside synthesis.

Abstract
Bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) have long been considered as inactive, unfolded waste material produced by heterologous overexpression of recombinant genes. In industrial applications, they are occasionally used as an alternative in cases where a protein cannot be expressed in soluble form and in high enough amounts. Then, however, refolding approaches are needed to transform inactive IBs into active soluble protein. While anecdotal reports about IBs themselves showing catalytic functionality/activity (CatIB) are found throughout literature, only recently, the use of protein engineering methods has facilitated the on-demand production of CatIBs. CatIB formation is induced usually by fusing short peptide tags or aggregation-inducing protein domains to a target protein. The resulting proteinaceous particles formed by heterologous expression of the respective genes can be regarded as a biologically produced bionanomaterial or, if enzymes are used as target protein, carrier-free enzyme immobilizates. In the present contribution, we review general concepts important for CatIB production, processing, and application. KEY POINTS: • Catalytically active inclusion bodies (CatIBs) are promising bionanomaterials. • Potential applications in biocatalysis, synthetic chemistry, and biotechnology. • CatIB formation represents a generic approach for enzyme immobilization. • CatIB formation efficiency depends on construct design and expression conditions.

Abstract
The formation of inclusion bodies (IBs) without enzyme activity in bacterial research is generally undesirable. Researchers have attempted to recovery the enzyme activities of IBs, which are commonly known as active IBs. Tyrosine phenol-lyase (TPL) is an important enzyme that can convert pyruvate and phenol into 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-DOPA) and IBs of TPL can commonly occur. To induce the correct folding and recover the enzyme activity of the IBs, peptides, such as ELK16, DKL6, L6KD, ELP10, ELP20, L6K2, EAK16, 18A, and GFIL16, were fused to the carboxyl terminus of TPL. The results showed that aggregate particles of TPL-DKL6, TPL-ELP10, TPL-EAK16, TPL-18A, and TPL-GFIL16 improved the enzyme activity by 40.9%, 50.7%, 48.9%, 86.6%, and 97.9%, respectively. The peptides TPL-DKL6, TPL-EAK16, TPL-18A, and TPL-GFIL16 displayed significantly improved thermostability compared with TPL. L-DOPA titer of TPL-ELP10, TPL-EAK16, TPL-18A, and TPL-GFIL16, with cells reaching 37.8 g/L, 53.8 g/L, 37.5 g/L, and 29.1 g/L, had an improvement of 111%, 201%, 109%, and 63%, respectively. A higher activity and L-DOPA titer of the TPL-EAK16 could be valuable for its industrial application to biosynthesize L-DOPA.

Abstract
Enzymes are nature’s catalyst of choice for the highly selective and efficient coupling of carbohydrates. Enzymatic sugar coupling is a competitive technology for industrial glycosylation reactions, since chemical synthetic routes require extensive use of laborious protection group manipulations and often lack regio- and stereoselectivity. The application of Leloir glycosyltransferases has received considerable attention in recent years and offers excellent control over the reactivity and selectivity of glycosylation reactions with unprotected carbohydrates, paving the way for previously inaccessible synthetic routes. The development of nucleotide recycling cascades has allowed for the efficient production and reuse of nucleotide sugar donors in robust one-pot multi-enzyme glycosylation cascades. In this way, large glycans and glycoconjugates with complex stereochemistry can be constructed. With recent advances, LeLoir glycosyltransferases are close to being applied industrially in multi-enzyme, programmable cascade glycosylations.

Bacterial inclusion bodies are industrially exploitable amyloids. FEMS Microbiol Rev 2019; 43:53-72.

Abstract
Understanding the structure, functionalities and biology of functional amyloids is an issue of emerging interest. Inclusion bodies, namely protein clusters formed in recombinant bacteria during protein production processes, have emerged as unanticipated, highly tunable models for the scrutiny of the physiology and architecture of functional amyloids. Based on an amyloidal skeleton combined with varying amounts of native or native-like protein forms, bacterial inclusion bodies exhibit an unusual arrangement that confers mechanical stability, biological activity and conditional protein release, being thus exploitable as versatile biomaterials. The applicability of inclusion bodies in biotechnology as enriched sources of protein and reusable catalysts, and in biomedicine as biocompatible topographies, nanopills or mimetics of endocrine secretory granules has been largely validated. Beyond these uses, the dissection of how recombinant bacteria manage the aggregation of functional protein species into structures of highly variable complexity offers insights about unsuspected connections between protein quality (conformational status compatible with functionality) and cell physiology.
