Abstract
Cellular agriculture is a rapidly emerging field, within which cultured meat has attracted the majority of media attention in recent years. An equally promising area of cellular agriculture, and one that has produced far more actual food ingredients that have been incorporated into commercially available products, is the use of cellular hosts to produce soluble proteins, herein referred to as precision cellular agriculture (PCAg). In PCAg, specific animal- or plant-sourced proteins are expressed recombinantly in unicellular hosts-the majority of which are yeast-and harvested for food use. The numerous advantages of PCAg over traditional agriculture, including a smaller carbon footprint and more consistent products, have led to extensive research on its utility. This review is the first to survey proteins currently being expressed using PCAg for food purposes. A growing number of viable expression hosts and recent advances for increased protein yields and process optimization have led to its application for producing milk, egg, and muscle proteins; plant hemoglobin; sweet-tasting plant proteins; and ice-binding proteins. Current knowledge gaps present research opportunities for optimizing expression hosts, tailoring posttranslational modifications, and expanding the scope of proteins produced. Considerations for the expansion of PCAg and its implications on food regulation, society, ethics, and the environment are also discussed. Considering the current trajectory of PCAg, food proteins from any biological source can likely be expressed recombinantly and used as purified food ingredients to create novel and tailored food products.

Abstract
α-Galactosidase (α-D-galactosidase galactohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.22), is an industrially important enzyme that hydrolyzes the galactose residues in galactooligosaccharides and polysaccharides. The industrial production of α-galactosidase is currently insufficient owing to the high production cost, low production efficiency and low enzyme activity. Recent years have witnessed an increase in the worldwide research on molecular techniques to improve the production efficiency of microbial α-galactosidases. Cloning and overexpression of the gene sequences coding for α-galactosidases can not only increase the enzyme yield but can confer industrially beneficial characteristics to the enzyme protein. This review focuses on the molecular advances in the overexpression of α-galactosidases in bacterial and yeast/fungal expression systems. Recombinant α-galactosidases have improved biochemical and hydrolytic properties compared to their native counterparts. Metabolic engineering of microorganisms to produce high yields of α-galactosidase can also assist in the production of value-added products. Developing new variants of α-galactosidases through directed evolution can yield enzymes with increased catalytic activity and altered regioselectivity. The bottlenecks in the recombinant production of α-galactosidases are also discussed. The knowledge about the hurdles in the overexpression of recombinant proteins illuminates the emerging possibilities of developing a successful microbial cell factory and widens the opportunities for the production of industrially beneficial α-galactosidases.

Abstract
Galactomannans, abundantly present in plant biomass, can be used as renewable fermentation feedstock for biorefineries working for the production of bioethanol and other value-added products. The complete and efficient bioconversion of biomass to fermentable sugars for the generation of biofuels and other value-added products require the concerted action of accessory enzymes like α-galactosidases, which can work in cohesion with other carbohydrases in an enzyme cocktail. In the paper industry, α-galactosidases enhance the bleaching effect of endo-β-1,4-mannanases on softwood kraft pulp. Microbial α-galactosidases also find applications in the treatment of legume foods, recovery of sucrose from sugar beet syrup, improving the rheological properties of galactomannans, and synthesis of α-galactooligosaccharides to be used as functional food ingredients. Owing to their industrial applications, there is a surge in the research focused on α-galactosidases. The current review illustrates the diverse industrial applications of microbial α-galactosidases and their challenges and prospects.

Abstract
Filamentous fungi possess versatile capabilities for synthesizing a variety of valuable bio compounds, including enzymes, organic acids and small molecule secondary metabolites. The advancements of genetic and metabolic engineering techniques and the availability of sequenced genomes discovered their potential as expression hosts for recombinant protein production. Remarkably, plant-biomass degrading filamentous fungi show the unique capability to decompose lignocellulose, an extremely recalcitrant biopolymer. The basic biochemical approaches have motivated several industrial processes for lignocellulose biomass valorisation into fermentable sugars and other biochemical for biofuels, biomolecules, and biomaterials. The review gives insight into current trends in engineering filamentous fungi for enzymes, fuels, and chemicals from lignocellulose biomass. This review describes the variety of enzymes and compounds that filamentous fungi produce, engineering of filamentous fungi for biomass valorisation with a special focus on lignocellulolytic enzymes and other bulk chemicals.

Enzyme Microb Technol 2021; 150:109870. [PMID: 34489029 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2021.109870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2021] [Revised: 06/28/2021] [Accepted: 07/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The propeptide is a short sequence that facilitates protein folding. In this study, four highly active Rhizomucor miehei lipase (RML) mutants were obtained through saturation mutagenesis at three propeptide positions: Ser8, Pro35, and Pro47. The enzyme activities of mutants P35 N, P47 G, P47 N, and S8E/P35S/P47A observed at 40 °C, and pH 8.0 were 10.19, 7.53, 6.15, and 8.24 times of that wild-type RML, respectively. The S8E/P35S/P47A mutant showed good thermostability. After incubation at 40 °C for 1 h, 98.98 % of its initial activity remained, whereas wild-type RML retained only 78.76 %. This result indicated that the enhancement of hydrophilicity of 35- and 47- amino-acid residues could promote the interaction between the propeptide and the mature peptide and the enzyme activity and expression level. Highly conserved sites had a more significant impact on enzyme performance than did other sites, similar to the Pro35 and Pro47 mutants showed in this study. This study provides a new idea for protein modification: enzyme performance can be improved through propeptide regulation.

Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 158:708-720. [PMID: 32387605 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.04.256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2020] [Revised: 04/27/2020] [Accepted: 04/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The α-galactosidase gene (galC) was cloned from Aspergillus oryzae YZ1 and expressed in Pichia pastoris. The galC (2319 bp) containing two introns encoded a protein of 726 amino acids. The activity of the α-galactosidase (GalC) increased 1-fold after coding sequence optimization. Purified GalC exhibited a single protein band (100 kDa) in SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH and temperature of GalC were pH 4.66 and 50 °C, respectively. Like many GH36 family α-galactosidases, GalC displayed its activities towards raffinose and stachyose. The Km values for pNPG, raffinose and stachyose were 2.16, 4.63 and 8.54 mM, respectively. The GalC retained about 90% activity within the pH range 3.0-8.0. The activity of GalC was inhibited by Cu2+, while Ca2+ increased the enzyme activity. Different concentrations of glucose, mannose, galactose, xylose and sucrose slightly affected the activity of GalC. The GalC displayed strong resistance to trypsin, α-chymotrypsin, and proteinase K. Under simulated gastric conditions, GalC maintained most of its native activity after pepsin treatment for 3 h. The GalC could also effectively degrade raffinose and stachyose in soymilk. The GalC with high hydrolysis efficiency towards raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) and strong resistance to proteases is considered to have great potential in food and feed industries.

Abstract
A novel GH36 α-galactosidase gene (LrAgal36A) from Lichtheimia ramosa was synthesized and highly expressed in Pichia pastoris. The enzyme titer and protein yield for high-density fermentation in a 5 L fermentor were up to 953.6 U mL-1 and 4.36 g L-1. Purified recombinant LrAgal36A showed the maximum activity at pH 6.0 and 65 °C and was thermostable with a half-life of 70 min at 60 °C. LrAgal36A displayed the highest specific activity (353.17 ± 4.19 U mg-1) toward p-nitrophenyl-α-d-galactopyranoside (pNPGal) followed by galacto-oligosaccharides and could act slightly on galactomannans. The Km and catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) of LrAgal36A for pNPGal were 0.33 mM and 1569.50 mM-1 s-1, respectively. LrAgal36A and GH5 β-mannanase from L. ramosa showed a significant synergistic effect on the degradation of locust bean gum (LBG), resulting in release more reducing sugars (1.56 folds) and galactose (7.6 folds) by simultaneous or sequential reactions. Due to its hydrolysis properties, LrAgal36A might have potential applications in the area of pulp biobleaching, feed and food processing.

Abstract
α-Galactosidases are important industrial enzymes for hemicellulosic biomass degradation or modification. In this study, six novel extracellular α-galactosidases from Penicillium subrubescens were produced in Pichia pastoris and characterized. All α-galactosidases exhibited high affinity to pNPαGal, and only AglE was not active towards galacto-oligomers. Especially AglB and AglD released high amounts of galactose from guar gum, carob galactomannan and locust bean, but combining α-galactosidases with an endomannanase dramatically improved galactose release. Structural comparisons to other α-galactosidases and homology modelling showed high sequence similarities, albeit significant differences in mechanisms of productive binding, including discrimination between various galactosides. To our knowledge, this is the first study of such an extensive repertoire of extracellular fungal α-galactosidases, to demonstrate their potential for degradation of galactomannan-rich biomass. These findings contribute to understanding the differences within glycoside hydrolase families, to facilitate the development of new strategies to generate tailor-made enzymes for new industrial bioprocesses.

Abstract
α-Galactosidase, (E.C. 3.2.1.22) is an exoglycosidase that target galactooligosaccharides such as raffinose, melibiose, stachyose and branched polysaccharides like galactomannans and galacto-glucomannans by catalysing the hydrolysis of α-1,6 linked terminal galactose residues. The enzyme has been isolated and characterized from microbial, plant and animal sources. This ubiquitous enzyme possesses physiological significance and immense industrial potential. Optimization of the growth conditions and efficient purification strategies can lead to a significant increase in the enzyme production. To boost commercial productivity, cloning of novel α-galactosidase genes and their heterologous expression in suitable host has gained popularity. Enzyme immobilization leads to its greater reutilization, superior thermostability, pH tolerance and increased activity. The enzyme is well explored in food industry in the removal of raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) in soymilk and sugar crystallization process. It also improves animal feed quality and biomass processing. Applications of the enzyme is in the area of biomedicine includes therapeutic advances in treatment of Fabry disease, blood group conversion and removal of α-gal type immunogenic epitopes in xenotransplantation. With considerable biotechnological applications, this enzyme has been vastly commercialized and holds greater future prospects.

Abstract
The Aspergillus niger AS3.350 protease gene (pepD) was successfully cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris KM71. The rPepD activity was 331.5 U/ml, and the optimum temperature and pH were 45 °C and 8-9 respectively. In addition, enzyme activity was significantly inhibited by PMSF, EDTA, Mg2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ ions, and stimulated by Ca2+ which selectively bound to the T302 and D323 residues. Mutation in either or both of the residues inhibited rPepD expression, indicating that binding to Ca2+ is necessary for PepD expression and activity. The rPepD showed a wide substrate range, and was particularly selective to those with hydrophobic amino acids. The degree of rPepD-mediated hydrolysis of soy protein isolate, corn flour and gluten meal were 8.7%, 38.1% and 33.6% respectively, which was higher than that by Alcalase, indicating that rPepD has potential applications in the food processing industry.

Abstract
In this study, submerged fermentation mode for preparing instant dark tea production was developed through utilizing industrial low grade green tea as raw material and Aspergillus niger as fermentation microbe starter. The fermentation parameters (inoculum size, liquid-solid ratio and rotation speed) were optimized by using Box-Behnken design and response surface methodology (RSM) with desirability function, the theabrownins content, redness and turbidity value as responses. The optimal conditions were set as follow: inoculum size of 5.3% (v/v), liquid-solid ratio of 27.78 mL/g, and rotation speed of 182 r/min. The optimized conditions model showed a good correlation between the predicted and experimental values. Further, the optimum product of instant dark was achieved in a 3-L laboratory fermenter, and the main parameters of product were theabrownins content of 140.92 g/kg and redness value of 40.78 and turbidity of 90.98 NTU. Sensory evaluation showed that the instant dark tea infusion approached mellow mouthfeel, an aroma of mint and a good overall acceptance.

Abstract
Streptomyces griseus trypsin (SGT) possesses enzymatic properties similar to mammalian trypsins and has great potential applications in the leather processing, bioethanol, detergent and pharmaceutical industry. Here, a new strategy was reported for improving its stable, active secretory production through engineering of its propeptide and self-degradation sites. By rationally introducing hydrophobic mutations into the N-terminus of SGT Exmt (R145I), replacing the propeptide with FPVDDDDK and engineering the α-factor signal peptide, trypsin production (amidase activity) was improved to 177.85±2.83U·mL-1 in a 3-L fermenter (a 3.75-fold increase). Subsequently, all of the residues involved in autolysis that were identified by mass spectrometry were mutated and the resulting proteins were evaluated. In particular, the variant tbcf (K101A) demonstrated high stability and production (227.65±6.51U·mL-1 and 185.71±5.68mg·L-1, respectively). The recombinant strain constructed here has great potential for large-scale production of active trypsin.
