Abstract
Considering an ever-growing global population, which hit 8 billion people in the fall of 2022, it is essential to find solutions to avoid croplands competition between human food and animal feed. Agricultural co-products such as soybean meals have become important components of the circular economy thanks to their use in animal feed. Their implementation was made possible by the addition of exogenous enzymes in the diet of monogastric animals, especially fungal carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes). Here, we describe a time-course production and analysis of Aspergillus terreus secretomes for the identification of CAZymes able to enhance the digestibility of soybean meals. Functional assays revealed that the release of nutrients and the degradation of pectins in soybean meals can be tightly interconnected. Using a comparative proteomics approach, we identified several fungal pectin-degrading enzymes leading to increased assimilable nutrients in the soluble fraction of soybean meals. Our results reinforce the importance of deconstructing pectic polysaccharides in feedstuffs and contribute to sharpen our understanding of the fungal enzymatic interplays involved in pectin hydrolysis.IMPORTANCEIn the present study, we developed a strategy to identify the key fungal enzymatic activities involved in the improvement of soybean meal (SBM) digestibility. Our data unravel the importance of pectin degradation for the release of nutrients from SBM and provide some insights regarding the degradation of rhamnogalacturonan-I (RG-I) by ascomycetes. Indeed, the hydrolysis of pectins and RG-I by human microbiota is well documented in the literature, but our knowledge of the fungal CAZymes at play for the degradation of soybean pectins remains hitherto underexplored. Due to its wide use in animal feed, improving the digestibility of SBM by enzymatic treatments is a current challenge for feed additive suppliers. Since non-starch polysaccharides and pectins have often been reported for their anti-nutritional role in SBM, we believe this study will provide new avenues toward the improvement of enzymatic cocktails for animal nutrition and health.

Appl Environ Microbiol 2024; 90:e0193123. [PMID: 38376171 PMCID: PMC10952391 DOI: 10.1128/aem.01931-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024] Open
Abstract
White-rot fungi employ secreted carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) along with reactive oxygen species (ROS), like hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), to degrade lignocellulose in wood. H2O2 serves as a co-substrate for key oxidoreductases during the initial decay phase. While the degradation of lignocellulose by CAZymes is well documented, the impact of ROS on the oxidation of the secreted proteins remains unclear, and the identity of the oxidized proteins is unknown. Methionine (Met) can be oxidized to Met sulfoxide (MetO) or Met sulfone (MetO2) with potential deleterious, antioxidant, or regulatory effects. Other residues, like proline (Pro), can undergo carbonylation. Using the white-rot Pycnoporus cinnabarinus grown on aspen wood, we analyzed the Met content of the secreted proteins and their susceptibility to oxidation combining H218O2 with deep shotgun proteomics. Strikingly, their overall Met content was significantly lower (1.4%) compared to intracellular proteins (2.1%), a feature conserved in fungi but not in metazoans or plants. We evidenced that a catalase, widespread in white-rot fungi, protects the secreted proteins from oxidation. Our redox proteomics approach allowed the identification of 49 oxidizable Met and 40 oxidizable Pro residues within few secreted proteins, mostly CAZymes. Interestingly, many of them had several oxidized residues localized in hotspots. Some Met, including those in GH7 cellobiohydrolases, were oxidized up to 47%, with a substantial percentage of sulfone (13%). These Met are conserved in fungal homologs, suggesting important functional roles. Our findings reveal that white-rot fungi safeguard their secreted proteins by minimizing their Met content and by scavenging ROS and pinpoint redox-active residues in CAZymes.IMPORTANCEThe study of lignocellulose degradation by fungi is critical for understanding the ecological and industrial implications of wood decay. While carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) play a well-established role in lignocellulose degradation, the impact of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on secreted proteins remains unclear. This study aims at evaluating the effect of H2O2 on secreted proteins, focusing on the oxidation of methionine (Met). Using the model white-rot fungi Pycnoporus cinnabarinus grown on aspen wood, we showed that fungi protect their secreted proteins from oxidation by reducing their Met content and utilizing a secreted catalase to scavenge exogenous H2O2. The research identified key oxidizable Met within secreted CAZymes. Importantly, some Met, like those of GH7 cellobiohydrolases, undergone substantial oxidation levels suggesting important roles in lignocellulose degradation. These findings highlight the adaptive mechanisms employed by white-rot fungi to safeguard their secreted proteins during wood decay and emphasize the importance of these processes in lignocellulose breakdown.

Abstract
Microbial communities thrive through interactions and communication, which are challenging to study as most microorganisms are not cultivable. To address this challenge, researchers focus on the extracellular space where communication events occur. Exometabolomics and interactome analysis provide insights into the molecules involved in communication and the dynamics of their interactions. Advances in sequencing technologies and computational methods enable the reconstruction of taxonomic and functional profiles of microbial communities using high-throughput multi-omics data. Network-based approaches, including community flux balance analysis, aim to model molecular interactions within and between communities. Despite these advances, challenges remain in computer-assisted biosynthetic capacities elucidation, requiring continued innovation and collaboration among diverse scientists. This review provides insights into the current state and future directions of computer-assisted biosynthetic capacities elucidation in studying microbial communities.

Abstract
The concept of biorefinery has been advancing globally and organosolv pretreatment strategy has seen an upsurge in research due to its efficiency in removing the recalcitrant lignin and dissolution of cellulose. The high-performance organosolv system uses green solvents and its reusability contributes concurrently to the biorefinery sector and sustainability. The major advantage of the current system involves the continuous removal of lignin to enhance cellulose accessibility, thereby easing the later biorefinery steps, which were immensely restricted due to the recalcitrant lignin. The current system process can be further explored and enhanced via the amalgamation of new technologies, which is still a work in progress. Thus, the current review summarizes organosolv pretreatment and the range of solvents used, along with a detailed mechanistic approach that results in efficient pretreatment of LCB. The latest developments for designing high-performance pretreatment systems, their pitfalls, and advanced assessments such as Life Cycle Assessment along with Techno-Economic Assessment have also been deliberated to allow an insight into its diverse potential applicability towards a sustainable future.

Abstract
White-rot basidiomycetes are the only microorganisms able to produce both hydrolytic (cellulases and hemicellulases) and oxidative (ligninolytic) enzymes for degrading all lignocellulose constituents. Their enzymatic machinery makes them ideal for the discovery of novel enzymes with desirable properties. In the present work, Abortiporus biennis, a white-rot fungus, was studied in regard to its lignocellulolytic potential. Secretomics and biochemical analyses were employed to study the strain's enzymatic arsenal, after growth in corn stover cultures and xylose-based defined media. The results revealed the presence of all the necessary enzymatic activities for complete breakdown of biomass, while the prominent role of oxidative enzymes in the lignocellulolytic strategy of the strain became evident. Two novel laccases, AbiLac1 and AbiLac2, were isolated from the culture supernatant with ion-exchange chromatography. Characterization of purified laccases revealed their ability to oxidize a wide variety of phenolic and non-phenolic substrates. AbiLac1 was found to oxidize polystyrene powder, showing high depolymerization potential, based on radical chain scission mechanism as evidenced by molecular weight decrease. The results of the present study demonstrate the biotechnological potential of the unexplored enzymatic machinery of white-rot basidiomycetes, including the design of improved lignocellulolytic cocktails, as well as the degradation and/or valorization of plastic waste materials.

Activity-based protein profiling reveals dynamic substrate-specific cellulase secretion by saprotrophic basidiomycetes. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS 2022; 15:6.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Fungal saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass occurs concurrently with the secretion of a diverse collection of proteins, together functioning as a catalytic system to liberate soluble sugars from insoluble composite biomaterials. How different fungi respond to different substrates is of fundamental interest to the developing biomass saccharification industry. Among the cornerstones of fungal enzyme systems are the highly expressed cellulases (endo-β-glucanases and cellobiohydrolases). Recently, a cyclophellitol-derived activity-based probe (ABP-Cel) was shown to be a highly sensitive tool for the detection and identification of cellulases.
Results
Here we show that ABP-Cel enables endo-β-glucanase profiling in diverse fungal secretomes. In combination with established ABPs for β-xylanases and β-d-glucosidases, we collected multiplexed in-gel fluorescence activity-based protein profiles of 240 secretomes collected over ten days from biological replicates of ten different basidiomycete fungi grown on maltose, wheat straw, or aspen pulp. Our results reveal the remarkable dynamics and unique enzyme fingerprints associated with each species substrate combination. Chemical proteomic analysis identifies significant arsenals of cellulases secreted by each fungal species during growth on lignocellulosic biomass. Recombinant production and characterization of a collection of probe-reactive enzymes from GH5, GH10, and GH12 confirm that ABP-Cel shows broad selectivity towards enzymes with endo-β-glucanase activity.
Conclusion
Using small-volume samples with minimal sample preparation, the results presented here demonstrate the ready accessibility of sensitive direct evidence for fungal enzyme secretion during early stages of growth on complex lignocellulosic substrates.

Abstract
Trametes villosa is a wood-decaying fungus with great potential to be used in the bioconversion of agro-industrial residues and to obtain high-value-added products, such as biofuels. Nonetheless, the lack of high-quality genomic data hampers studies investigating genetic mechanisms and metabolic pathways in T. villosa, hindering its application in industry. Herein, applying a hybrid assembly pipeline using short reads (Illumina HiSeq) and long reads (Oxford Nanopore MinION), we obtained a high-quality genome for the T. villosa CCMB561 and investigated its genetic potential for lignocellulose breakdown. The new genome possesses 143 contigs, N50 of 1,009,271 bp, a total length of 46,748,415 bp, 14,540 protein-coding genes, 22 secondary metabolite gene clusters, and 426 genes encoding Carbohydrate-Active enzymes. Our CAZome annotation and comparative genomic analyses of nine Trametes spp. genomes revealed T. villosa CCMB561 as the species with the highest number of genes encoding lignin-modifying enzymes and a wide array of genes encoding proteins for the breakdown of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin. These results bring to light the potential of this isolate to be applied in the bioconversion of lignocellulose and will support future studies on the expression, regulation, and evolution of genes, proteins, and metabolic pathways regarding the bioconversion of lignocellulosic residues.

Abstract
Residual biomass is acknowledged as a key sustainable feedstock for the transition towards circular and low fossil carbon economies to supply whether energy, chemical, material and food products or services. The latter is receiving increasing attention, in particular in the perspective of decoupling nutrition from arable land demand. In order to provide a comprehensive overview of the technical possibilities to convert residual biomasses into edible ingredients, we reviewed over 950 scientific and industrial records documenting existing and emerging waste-to-nutrition pathways, involving over 150 different feedstocks here grouped under 10 umbrella categories: (i) wood-related residual biomass, (ii) primary crop residues, (iii) manure, (iv) food waste, (v) sludge and wastewater, (vi) green residual biomass, (vii) slaughterhouse by-products, (viii) agrifood co-products, (ix) C1 gases and (x) others. The review includes a detailed description of these pathways, as well as the processes they involve. As a result, we proposed four generic building blocks to systematize waste-to-nutrition conversion sequence patterns, namely enhancement, cracking, extraction and bioconversion. We further introduce a multidimensional representation of the biomasses suitability as potential as nutritional sources according to (i) their content in anti-nutritional compounds, (ii) their degree of structural complexity and (iii) their concentration of macro- and micronutrients. Finally, we suggest that the different pathways can be grouped into eight large families of approaches: (i) insect biorefinery, (ii) green biorefinery, (iii) lignocellulosic biorefinery, (iv) non-soluble protein recovery, (v) gas-intermediate biorefinery, (vi) liquid substrate alternative, (vii) solid-substrate fermentation and (viii) more-out-of-slaughterhouse by-products. The proposed framework aims to support future research in waste recovery and valorization within food systems, along with stimulating reflections on the improvement of resources' cascading use.

Abstract
The recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass is a major constraint to its high-value use at industrial scale. In nature, microbes play a crucial role in biomass degradation, nutrient recycling and ecosystem functioning. Therefore, the use of microbes is an attractive way to transform biomass to produce clean energy and high-value compounds. The microbial degradation of lignocelluloses is a complex process which is dependent upon multiple secreted enzymes and their synergistic activities. The availability of the cutting edge proteomics and highly sensitive mass spectrometry tools make possible for researchers to probe the secretome of microbes and microbial consortia grown on different lignocelluloses for the identification of hydrolytic enzymes of industrial interest and their substrate-dependent expression. This review summarizes the role of secretomics in identifying enzymes involved in lignocelluloses deconstruction, the development of enzyme cocktails and the construction of synthetic microbial consortia for biomass valorization, providing our perspectives to address the current challenges.

ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2020; 28:e00541. [PMID: 33102160 PMCID: PMC7578684 DOI: 10.1016/j.btre.2020.e00541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2020] [Revised: 10/05/2020] [Accepted: 10/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
First report on lignocellulolytic activity and diversity of fungi from central Morocco. Olive Mill Waste (OMW) is a suitable biomass for local biorefinery in Meknes region. Fusaria isolates produce high and diversified lignocellulases using Consolidated Bioprocess. Fusarium oxysporum (76) achieves 2.47 g.L−1 bioethanol production and 0.84 g.g−1 yield. Bioethanol is maximally produced during the oxygen-limiting phase.
Meknes region is a Moroccan olive-processing area generating high amounts of non-valorized Olive Mill Waste (OMW). Fungi are natural decomposers producing varied enzyme classes and effectively contributing to the carbon cycle. However, structural complexity of biomass and modest performances of wild fungi are major limits for local biorefineries. The objective of current research is to assess the ability of local fungi for bioethanol production from OMW using Consolidated Bioprocessing (CBP). This is done by characterizing lignocellulolytic potential of six wood-decay and compost-inhabiting ascomycetes and selecting potent fermentation biocatalysts. High and diversified activities were expressed by Fusarium solani and Fusarium oxysporum: 9.36 IU. mL−1 and 2.88 IU. mL−1 total cellulase activity, 0.54 IU. mL−1 and 0.57 IU. mL−1 laccase activity, respectively, and 8.43 IU. mL−1 lignin peroxidase activity for the latter. F. oxysporum had maximum bioethanol production and yield of 2.47 g.L-1 and 0.84 g.g−1, respectively, qualifying it as an important bio-agent for single-pot local biorefinery.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass (LB) is an abundant and renewable resource from plants mainly composed of polysaccharides (cellulose and hemicelluloses) and an aromatic polymer (lignin). LB has a high potential as an alternative to fossil resources to produce second-generation biofuels and biosourced chemicals and materials without compromising global food security. One of the major limitations to LB valorisation is its recalcitrance to enzymatic hydrolysis caused by the heterogeneous multi-scale structure of plant cell walls. Factors affecting LB recalcitrance are strongly interconnected and difficult to dissociate. They can be divided into structural factors (cellulose specific surface area, cellulose crystallinity, degree of polymerization, pore size and volume) and chemical factors (composition and content in lignin, hemicelluloses, acetyl groups). Goal of this review is to propose an up-to-date survey of the relative impact of chemical and structural factors on biomass recalcitrance and of the most advanced techniques to evaluate these factors. Also, recent spectral and water-related measurements accurately predicting hydrolysis are presented. Overall, combination of relevant factors and specific measurements gathering simultaneously structural and chemical information should help to develop robust and efficient LB conversion processes into bioproducts.

Abstract
Lignocellulose biomass can be transformed into sustainable chemicals, materials and energy but its natural recalcitrance requires the use of pretreatment to enhance subsequent catalytic steps. Dilute acid pretreatment is one of the most common and efficient ones, however its impact has not yet been investigated simultaneously at nano- and cellular-scales. Poplar samples have been pretreated by dilute acid at different controlled severities, then characterized by combined structural and spectral techniques (scanning electron microscopy, confocal microscopy, autofluorescence, fluorescence lifetime, Raman). Results show that pretreatment favours lignin depolymerization until severity of 2.4-2.5 while at severity of 2.7 lignin seems to repolymerize as revealed by broadening of autofluorescence spectrum and strong decrease in fluorescence lifetime. Importantly, both nano-scale and cellular-scale markers can predict hydrolysis yield of pretreated samples, highlighting some connections in the multiscale recalcitrance of lignocellulose.

The secretome of two representative lignocellulose-decay basidiomycetes growing on sugarcane bagasse solid-state cultures. Enzyme Microb Technol 2019; 130:109370. [PMID: 31421724 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2019.109370] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2019] [Revised: 06/27/2019] [Accepted: 07/02/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Secretome evaluations of lignocellulose-decay basidiomycetes can reveal new enzymes in selected fungal species that degrade specific substrates. Proteins discovered in such studies can support biorefinery development. Brown-rot (Gloeophyllum trabeum) and white-rot (Pleurotus ostreatus) fungi growing in sugarcane bagasse solid-state cultures produced 119 and 63 different extracellular proteins, respectively. Several of the identified enzymes are suitable for in vitro biomass conversion, including a range of cellulases (endoglucanases, cellobiohydrolases and β-glucosidases), hemicellulases (endoxylanases, α-arabinofuranosidases, α-glucuronidases and acetylxylan esterases) and carbohydrate-active auxiliary proteins, such as AA9 lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase, AA1 laccase and AA2 versatile peroxidase. Extracellular oxalate decarboxylase was also detected in both fungal species, exclusively in media containing sugarcane bagasse. Interestingly, intracellular AA6 quinone oxidoreductases were also exclusively produced under sugarcane bagasse induction in both fungi. These enzymes promote quinone redox cycling, which is used to produce Fenton's reagents by lignocellulose-decay fungi. Hitherto undiscovered hypothetical proteins that are predicted in lignocellulose-decay fungi genomes appeared in high relative abundance in the cultures containing sugarcane bagasse, which suggests undisclosed, new biochemical mechanisms that are used by lignocellulose-decay fungi to degrade sugarcane biomass. In general, lignocellulose-decay fungi produce a number of canonical hydrolases, as well as some newly observed enzymes, that are suitable for in vitro biomass digestion in a biorefinery context.
