Erkanli ME, El-Halabi K, Kim JR. Exploring the diversity of β-glucosidase: Classification, catalytic mechanism, molecular characteristics, kinetic models, and applications. Enzyme Microb Technol 2024; 173:110363. [PMID: 38041879 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2023.110363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/04/2023]
Abstract
High-value chemicals and energy-related products can be produced from biomass. Biorefinery technology offers a sustainable and cost-effective method for this high-value conversion. β-glucosidase is one of the key enzymes in biorefinery processes, catalyzing the production of glucose from aryl-glycosides and cello-oligosaccharides via the hydrolysis of β-glycosidic bonds. Although β-glucosidase plays a critical catalytic role in the utilization of cellulosic biomass, its efficacy is often limited by substrate or product inhibitions, low thermostability, and/or insufficient catalytic activity. To provide a detailed overview of β-glucosidases and their benefits in certain desired applications, we collected and summarized extensive information from literature and public databases, covering β-glucosidases in different glycosidase hydrolase families and biological kingdoms. These β-glucosidases show differences in amino acid sequence, which are translated into varying degrees of the molecular properties critical in enzymatic applications. This review describes studies on the diversity of β-glucosidases related to the classification, catalytic mechanisms, key molecular characteristics, kinetics models, and applications, and highlights several β-glucosidases displaying high stability, activity, and resistance to glucose inhibition suitable for desired biotechnological applications.

Abstract
β-glucosidases (BGLs) play a crucial role in the degradation of lignocellulosic biomass as well as in industrial applications such as pharmaceuticals, foods, and flavors. However, the application of BGLs has been largely hindered by issues such as low enzyme activity, product inhibition, low stability, etc. Many approaches have been developed to engineer BGLs to improve these enzymatic characteristics to facilitate industrial production. In this article, we review the recent advances in BGL engineering in the field, including the efforts from our laboratory. We summarize and discuss the BGL engineering studies according to the targeted functions as well as the specific strategies used for BGL engineering.

Abstract
The performance of β-glucosidase during cellulose saccharification is determined by thermostability, activity and glucose tolerance. However, conflicts between them make it challenging to simultaneously optimize three properties. In this work, such a case was reported using Bgl6-M3 as a starting point. Firstly, four thermostability-enhancing mutations were obtained using computer-aided engineering strategies (mutant M7). Secondly, substrate binding pocket of M7 was reshaped, generating two mutations that increased activity but decreased glucose tolerance (mutant M9). Then a key region lining active site cavity was redesigned, resulting in three mutations that boosted glucose tolerance and activity. Finally, mutant M12 with simultaneously improved thermostability (half-life of 20-fold), activity (kcat/Km of 5.6-fold) and glucose tolerance (ΔIC50 of 200 mM) was obtained. Mechanisms for property improvement were elucidated by structural analysis and molecular dynamics simulations. Overall, the strategies used here and new insights into the underlying mechanisms may provide guidance for multi-property engineering of other enzymes.

Abstract
This study reports a novel BglA9 gene of 1345 bp encoding β-glucosidase from Anoxybacillus ayderensis A9, which was amplified and expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3): pLysS cells, purified with Ni-NTA column having molecular weight of 52.6 kDa and was used in the bioconversion of polydatin to resveratrol. The kinetic parameters values using pNPG as substrate were Km (0.28 mM), Vmax (43.8 μmol/min/mg), kcat (38.43 s-1) and kcat/Km (135.5 s-1 mM-1). The BglA9 was active in a broad pH range and had an activity half-life around 24 h at 50 °C. The de-glycosylation efficiency of BglA9 for polydatin was determined by estimating the amount of glucose released after enzymatic reaction by a dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) assay. The kinetic parameters of BglA9 for polydatin were 5.5 mM, 20.84 μmol/min/mg, 18.28 s-1and 3.27 s-1 mM-1 for Km, Vmax, kcat, and kcat/Km values, respectively. The Ki value for glucose was determined to be 1.7 M. The residues Gln19, His120, Glu355, Glu409, Glu178, Asn222 may play a crucial role in the deglycosylation as revealed by the 3D structure of enzyme docked with polydatin.

Abstract
Glucose-tolerant and/or glucose-stimulated β-glucosidase is of great interest for its industrial utilization in enzymatic digestion of lignocellulosic biomass for biofuel production. In this study, a new gene of β-glucosidase MaGlu1A was cloned from an alginate-degrading marine bacterium Microbulbifer sp. ALW1. The gene of MaGlu1A encoded a 472-amino acid protein classified into the glycosyl hydrolase family 1 (GH1). The recombinant β-glucosidase was overexpressed and purified from Escherichia coli with a molecular mass of 65.0 kDa. Structure analysis illustrated the catalytic acid/base residue Glu186 and nucleophilic residue Glu370 in the enzyme. MaGlu1A displayed optimal activity at 40 °C and pH 4.5, respectively. It had substrate preference to the aryl-β-glycosidic bonds with glucose, fucose, and galactose moieties, in addition to cellobiose. MaGlu1A demonstrated strong stimulation to the supplemental glucose. Site-directed mutagenesis suggested an essential role of Asn242 in glucose stimulation. The enzymatic characterization of MaGlu1A provides general information about its catalytic properties facilitating its practical applications.

Abstract
Second-generation ethanol production involves the use of agricultural and forestry waste as feedstock, being an alternative to the first-generation technology as it relies on low-cost abundant residues and does not affect food agriculture. However, the success of second-generation biorefineries relies on energetically efficient processes and effective enzyme cocktails to convert cellulose into fermentable sugars. β-glucosidases catalyze the last step on the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose; however, they are often inhibited by glucose. Previous studies demonstrated that glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) is a positive allosteric modulator of Bacillus polymyxa β-glucosidase A, improving enzymatic efficiency, providing thermoresistance, and imparting glucose tolerance. However, the precise molecular details of G6P-β-glucosidase A interactions have not yet been described so far. We investigated the molecular details of G6P binding into B. polymyxa β-glucosidase A through in silico docking using the site identification by ligand competitive saturation technology followed by site-directed mutagenesis studies, from which an allosteric binding site for G6P was identified. In addition, a mechanistic shift toward the transglycosylation reaction as opposed to hydrolysis was observed in the presence of G6P, suggesting a new role of G6P allosteric modulation of the catalytic activity of β-glucosidase A.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable and sustainable energy source. Cellulases are the enzymes that cleave β-1, 4-glycosidic linkages in cellulose to liberate sugars that can be fermented to ethanol, butanol, and other products. Low enzyme activity and yield, and thermostability are, however, some of the limitations posing hurdles in saccharification of lignocellulosic residues. Recent advancements in synthetic and systems biology have generated immense interest in metabolic and genetic engineering that has led to the development of sustainable technology for saccharification of lignocellulosics in the last couple of decades. There have been several attempts in applying genetic engineering in the production of a repertoire of cellulases at a low cost with a high biomass saccharification. A diverse range of cellulases are produced by different microbes, some of which are being engineered to evolve robust cellulases. This review summarizes various successful genetic engineering strategies employed for improving cellulase kinetics and cellulolytic efficiency.

Abstract
In this study, a Petri-dish-based double-layer high-throughput screening method was established to improve glucose tolerance of β-glucosidase Bgl15. Two beneficial mutations were identified, and the joint mutant 2R1 improved the half-maximal inhibitory concentration of glucose from 0.04 to 2.1 M. The crystal structure of 2R1 was subsequently determined at 2.7 Å. Structure analysis revealed that enhancement of glucose tolerance may be due to improved transglycosylation activity made possible by a hydrophobic binding site for glucose as an acceptor and more stringent control of a putative water channel. To further ameliorate the application potential of the enzyme, it was engineered to increase the half-life at 50 °C from 0.8 h (Bgl15) to 180 h (mutant 5R1). Furthermore, supplementation of 5R1 to the cellulase cocktail significantly improved glucose production from pretreated sugar cane bagasse by 38%. Consequently, this study provided an efficient approach to enhance glucose tolerance and generated a promising catalyst for cellulose saccharification.

Abstract
Chimera (CtGH1-L1-CtGH5-F194A) developed by fusing β-glucosidase (CtGH1) at N-terminal and endoglucanase (CtGH5-F194A) at C-terminal was structurally characterized. Its secondary structure analysis by CD showed 38% α-helix, 9.3% β-sheets and 52.7% random coils corroborating with prediction. In-silico modeled structure of Chimera comprised two modules, CtGH1 and CtGH5-F194A displaying (α/β)8 fold. Ramachandran plot of Chimera showed 99.9% residues in allowed region. Binding interaction of Chimera with cello-oligosaccharides suggested active forms of CtGH1 and CtGH5-F194A and their involvement in catalysis. MD simulation of cellohexaose bound endoglucanase module of Chimera showed favourable flexibility in loops, LA with H-bond formation with Asn510 and in loop LC relocation of Tyr687 away from active site efficiently releasing the product after catalysis. Higher short range interaction energy of Chimera, -383 kJ/mol than the individual endoglucanase, 254 kJ/mol against cellohexaose suggested higher efficient catalysis by Chimera. β-Glucosidase module of Chimera showed fluctuations in outer loops suggesting conformational changes that might be contributing to improved hydrolysis. SAXS analysis of Chimera displayed monodispersed state. Guinier analysis of Chimera showed globular shape (Rg= 3.15 ± 0.10 nm). Kratky plot confirmed fully folded and flexible behaviour in solution. Gasbor modeled structure of Chimera displayed an elongated structure with two modules having shape similar to bean-bag contour.

The production of biofuels from biomass is an enzyme mediated process, wherein β-glucosidase (BGL) enzymes play a key role in biomass hydrolysis by producing monomeric sugars from cellulose-based oligosaccharides. However, the production and availability of these enzymes realize their major role to increase the overall production cost of biomass to biofuels production technology. Therefore, the present review is focused on evaluating the production and efficiency of β-glucosidase enzymes in the bioconversion of cellulosic biomass for biofuel production at an industrial scale, providing its mechanism and classification. The application of BGL enzymes in the biomass conversion process has been discussed along with the recent developments and existing issues. Moreover, the production and development of microbial BGL enzymes have been explained in detail, along with the recent advancements made in the field. Finally, current hurdles and future suggestions have been provided for the future developments. This review is likely to set a benchmark in the area of cost effective BGL enzyme production, specifically in the biorefinery area.

Abstract
A high-performance β-glucosidase for efficient cellulose hydrolysis needs to excel in thermostability, catalytic efficiency, and resistance to glucose inhibition. However, it is challenging to achieve superb properties in all three aspects in a single enzyme. In this study, a hyperactive and glucose-tolerant β-glucosidase Ks5A7 was employed as the starting point. Four rounds of random mutagenesis were then performed, giving rise to a thermostable mutant 4R1 with five amino acid substitutions. The half-life of 4R1 at 50 °C is 8640-fold that of Ks5A7 (144 h vs 1 min). Meanwhile, 4R1 had a higher specific activity (374.26 vs 243.18 units·mg-1) than the wild type with a similar glucose tolerance. When supplemented to Celluclast 1.5L, the mutant significantly enhanced the hydrolysis of pretreated sugar cane bagasse, improving the released glucose concentration by 44%. With excellent performance in thermostability, activity, and glucose tolerance, 4R1 will serve as an exceptional catalyst for industrial applications.

Abstract
The β-glucosidases (β-D-glucoside glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.21) hydrolyze glycosidic bonds of alkyl-, amino-, or aryl-β-D-glucosides, cyanogenic glucosides, disaccharides and short oligosaccharides and can also catalyze the synthesis of glycosyl-bonds between different molecules via transglycosylation. Due to their ubiquitous phylogenetic distribution, substrate diversity and ability to both hydrolyze and synthesize glycosidic bonds, the catalysis and regulation of β-glucosidases have been extensively studied. Many β-glucosidases are inhibited by the reaction product glucose, and reduced catalytic activity may limit the biotechnological and industrial applications of these enzymes and this has stimulated the search for β-glucosidases that maintain their activity at high glucose concentrations. Studies of many glucose tolerant enzymes have been reported and due to the ongoing interest in these enzymes, here it has been reviewed this accumulated body of knowledge which provides valuable insights as to the kinetics, structure, regulation and evolution of glucose tolerant and glucose stimulated β-glucosidases.

Abstract
The traditional concept of the genus Humicola includes species that produce pigmented, thick-walled and single-celled spores laterally or terminally on hyphae or minimally differentiated conidiophores. More than 50 species have been described in the genus. Species commonly occur in soil, indoor environments, and compost habitats. The taxonomy of Humicola and morphologically similar genera is poorly understood in modern terms. Based on a four-locus phylogeny, the morphological concept of Humicola proved to be polyphyletic. The type of Humicola, H. fuscoatra, belongs to the Chaetomiaceae. In the Chaetomiaceae, species producing humicola-like thick-walled spores are distributed among four lineages: Humicola sensu stricto, Mycothermus, Staphylotrichum, and Trichocladium. In our revised concept of Humicola, asexual and sexually reproducing species both occur. The re-defined Humicola contains 24 species (seven new and thirteen new combinations), which are described and illustrated in this study. The species in this genus produce conidia that are lateral, intercalary or terminal on/in hyphae, and conidiophores are not formed or are minimally developed (micronematous). The ascospores of sexual Humicola species are limoniform to quadrangular in face view and bilaterally flattened with one apical germ pore. Seven species are accepted in Staphylotrichum (four new species, one new combination). Thick-walled conidia of Staphylotrichum species usually arise either from hyphae (micronematous) or from apically branched, seta-like conidiophores (macronematous). The sexual morph represented by Staphylotrichum longicolleum (= Chaetomium longicolleum) produces ascomata with long necks composed of a fused basal part of the terminal hairs, and ascospores that are broad limoniform to nearly globose, bilaterally flattened, with an apical germ pore. The Trichocladium lineage has a high morphological diversity in both asexual and sexual structures. Phylogenetic analysis revealed four subclades in this lineage. However, these subclades are genetically closely related, and no distinctive phenotypic characters are linked to any of them. Fourteen species are accepted in Trichocladium, including one new species, twelve new combinations. The type species of Gilmaniella, G. humicola, belongs to the polyphyletic family Lasiosphaeriaceae (Sordariales), but G. macrospora phylogenetically belongs to Trichocladium. The thermophilic genus Mycothermus and the type species My. thermophilum are validated, and one new Mycothermus species is described. Phylogenetic analyses show that Remersonia, another thermophilic genus, is sister to Mycothermus and two species are known, including one new species. Thermomyces verrucosus produces humicola-like conidia and is transferred to Botryotrichum based on phylogenetic affinities. This study is a first attempt to establish an inclusive modern classification of Humicola and humicola-like genera of the Chaetomiaceae. More research is needed to determine the phylogenetic relationships of “humicola”-like species outside the Chaetomiaceae.

Purification and characterization of a novel GH1 beta-glucosidase from Jeotgalibacillus malaysiensis. Int J Biol Macromol 2018; 115:1094-1102. [PMID: 29723622 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2018.04.156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2018] [Revised: 04/24/2018] [Accepted: 04/28/2018] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
Beta-glucosidase (BGL) is an important industrial enzyme for food, waste and biofuel processing. Jeotgalibacillus is an understudied halophilic genus, and no beta-glucosidase from this genus has been reported. A novel beta-glucosidase gene (1344 bp) from J. malaysiensis DSM 28777T was cloned and expressed in E. coli. The recombinant protein, referred to as BglD5, consists of a total 447 amino acids. BglD5 purified using a Ni-NTA column has an apparent molecular mass of 52 kDa. It achieved the highest activity at pH 7 and 65 °C. The activity and stability were increased when CaCl2 was supplemented to the enzyme. The enzyme efficiently hydrolyzed salicin and (1 → 4)-beta-glycosidic linkages such as in cellobiose, cellotriose, cellotetraose, cellopentose, and cellohexanose. Similar to many BGLs, BglD5 was not active towards polysaccharides such as Avicel, carboxymethyl cellulose, Sigmacell cellulose 101, alpha-cellulose and xylan. When BglD5 blended with Cellic® Ctec2, the total sugars saccharified from oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) was enhanced by 4.5%. Based on sequence signatures and tree analyses, BglD5 belongs to the Glycoside Hydrolase family 1. This enzyme is a novel beta-glucosidase attributable to its relatively low sequence similarity with currently known beta-glucosidases, where the closest characterized enzyme is the DT-Bgl from Anoxybacillus sp. DT3-1.
