Extracellular Overexpression of a Neutral Pullulanase in Bacillus subtilis through Multiple Copy Genome Integration and Atypical Secretion Pathway Enhancement. Bioengineering (Basel) 2024; 11:661. [PMID: 39061743 PMCID: PMC11273987 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering11070661] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Neutral pullulanases, having a good application prospect in trehalose production, showed a limited expression level. In order to address this issue, two approaches were utilized to enhance the yield of a new neutral pullulanase variant (PulA3E) in B. subtilis. One involved using multiple copies of genome integration to increase its expression level and fermentation stability. The other focused on enhancing the PulA-type atypical secretion pathway to further improve the secretory expression of PulA3E. Several strains with different numbers of genome integrations, ranging from one to four copies, were constructed. The four-copy genome integration strain PD showed the highest extracellular pullulanase activity. Additionally, the integration sites ytxE, ytrF, and trpP were selected based on their ability to enhance the PulA-type atypical secretion pathway. Furthermore, overexpressing the predicated regulatory genes comEA and yvbW of the PulA-type atypical secretion pathway in PD further improved its extracellular expression. Three-liter fermenter scale-up production of PD and PD-ARY yielded extracellular pullulanase activity of 1767.1 U/mL at 54 h and 2465.1 U/mL at 78 h, respectively. Finally, supplementing PulA3E with 40 U/g maltodextrin in the multi-enzyme catalyzed system resulted in the highest trehalose production of 166 g/L and the substrate conversion rate of 83%, indicating its potential for industrial application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis is widely used for industrial enzyme production. Its ability to secrete a wide range of enzymes into the extracellular medium especially facilitates downstream processing since cell disruption is avoided. Although various heterologous enzymes have been successfully secreted with B. subtilis, the secretion of cytoplasmic enzymes with high molecular weight is challenging. Only a few studies report on the secretion of cytoplasmic enzymes with a molecular weight > 100 kDa. RESULTS In this study, the cytoplasmic and 120 kDa β-galactosidase of Paenibacillus wynnii (β-gal-Pw) was expressed and secreted with B. subtilis SCK6. Different strategies were focused on to identify the best secretion conditions. Tailormade codon-optimization of the β-gal-Pw gene led to an increase in extracellular β-gal-Pw production. Consequently, the optimized gene was used to test four signal peptides and two promoters in different combinations. Differences in extracellular β-gal-Pw activity between the recombinant B. subtilis strains were observed with the successful secretion being highly dependent on the specific combination of promoter and signal peptide used. Interestingly, signal peptides of both the general secretory- and the twin-arginine translocation pathway mediated secretion. The highest extracellular activity of 55.2 ± 6 µkat/Lculture was reached when secretion was mediated by the PhoD signal peptide and expression was controlled by the PAprE promoter. Production of extracellular β-gal-Pw was further enhanced 1.4-fold in a bioreactor cultivation to 77.5 ± 10 µkat/Lculture with secretion efficiencies of more than 80%. CONCLUSION For the first time, the β-gal-Pw was efficiently secreted with B. subtilis SCK6, demonstrating the potential of this strain for secretory production of cytoplasmic, high molecular weight enzymes.

Abstract
Polymyxin is a lipopeptide antibiotic that is effective against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. However, its clinical development is limited due to low titer and the presence of homologs. To address this, the polymyxin gene cluster was integrated into Bacillus subtilis, and sfp from Paenibacillus polymyxa was expressed heterologously, enabling recombinant B. subtilis to synthesize polymyxin B. Regulating NRPS domain inhibited formation of polymyxin B2 and B3. The production of polymyxin B increased to 329.7 mg/L by replacing the native promoters of pmxA, pmxB, and pmxE with PfusA, C2up, and PfusA, respectively. Further enhancement in this production, up to 616.1 mg/L, was achieved by improving the synthesis ability of 6-methyloctanoic acid compared to the original strain expressing polymyxin heterologously. Additionally, incorporating an anikasin-derived domain into the hybrid nonribosomal peptide synthase of polymyxin increased the B1 ratio in polymyxin B from 57.5% to 62.2%. Through optimization of peptone supply in the fermentation medium and fermentation in a 5.0-L bioreactor, the final polymyxin B titer reached 962.1 mg/L, with a yield of 19.24 mg/g maltodextrin and a productivity of 10.02 mg/(L·h). This study demonstrates a successful approach for enhancing polymyxin B production and increasing the B1 ratio through combinatorial metabolic engineering.

Abstract
Walnut is a significant economic tree species worldwide. Walnut anthracnose, caused by the pathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, greatly reduces walnut production and economic benefits. Our study showed that Bacillus velezensis effectively halted the growth of C. gloeosporioides, inducing noticeable abnormalities such as hyphal breakage and distortion, thereby curtailing the pathogen's virulence. A 50-100 times dilution of B. velezensis fermentation broth, applied every two to three days, served as an efficient protective layer for walnut leaves and fruits against C. gloeosporioides infection. Transcriptomic analysis of B. velezensis unveiled its dynamic response against C. gloeosporioides. On the second day, B. velezensis upregulated a significant number of differentially expressed genes related to the synthesis of metabolic products, amino acid biosynthesis, and motility. On the fourth day, continuous synthesis of metabolic products and amino acids, along with differential expression of spore-related genes, was observed. By the sixth day, the focus shifted towards environmental adaptation and carbon source utilization. Throughout the process, B. velezensis likely employed strategies such as the release of metabolic products, increased chemotaxis, and nutrient competition to exert its antagonistic effect on C. gloeosporioides. Fluorescence quantitative results showed that 15 primer pairs were up-regulated and 15 were down-regulated, with a 100% similarity rate to transcriptome sequencing results, confirming their authenticity. These findings provided a foundation for the widespread application of B. velezensis as a biocontrol agent in agriculture and forestry.

Pullulanase: unleashing the power of enzyme with a promising future in the food industry. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1139611.

Abstract
Pullulanases are the most important industrial group of enzymes in family 13 glycosyl hydrolases. They hydrolyze either α-1,6 and α-1,4 or both glycosidic bonds in pullulan as well as other carbohydrates to produce glucose, maltose, and maltotriose syrups, which have important uses in food and other related sectors. However, very less reports are available on pullulanase production from native strains because of low yield issues. In line with the increasing demands for pullulanase, it has become important to search for novel pullulanase-producing microorganisms with high yields. Moreover, high production costs and low yield are major limitations in the industrial production of pullulanase enzymes. The production cost of pullulanase by using the solid-state fermentation (SSF) process can be minimized by selecting agro-industrial waste. This review summarizes the types, sources, production strategies, and potential applications of pullulanase in different food and other related industries. Researchers should focus on fungal strains producing pullulanase for better yield and low production costs by using agro-waste. It will prove a better enzyme in different food processing industries and will surely reduce the cost of products.

Abstract
2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2G), a stable glucoside derivative of L-ascorbic acid (L-AA), can be one-step synthesized by sucrose phosphorylase (SPase). In this study, we attempted to produce extracellular SPase in Bacillus subtilis WB800 for the food-grade production of AA-2G. The results showed that the secretion of SPases did not require signal peptide. Promoter and its compatibility to target SPase gene were proved to be the key factors for high-level secretion. The strong promoter P43 and synthetic SPase gene derived from Bifidobacterium longum (BloSPase) were selected due to generate a relatively high extracellular activity (0.94 U/mL) for L-AA glycosylation. A highly active dual-promoter system PsigH-100-P43 was further constructed, which produced the highest extracellular and intracellular activity were 5.53 U/mL and 6.85 U/mL in fed-batch fermentation, respectively. Up to 113.58 g/L of AA-2G could be achieved by the supernatant of fermentation broth and a higher yield of 146.42 g/L was obtained by whole-cells biotransformation. Therefore, the optimal dual-promoter system in B. subtilis is suitable for the food-grade scale-up production of AA-2G.

Abstract
Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) are widely used plasticizers found in consumer products, which enter the environment and pose severe threats to human health. Here, a new PAE-degrading enzyme EstJ6 was modified by combining mutagenesis strategies and a strong promoter replacement to improve its catalytic activity and expression level. Four mutants with enhanced activity were obtained by random mutation, among which EstJ6M1.1 exhibited the highest catalytic activity with an increase in catalytic activity by 2.9-fold toward dibutyl phthalate (DBP) than that of the wild-type (WT) enzyme. With these mutants as a template, a variant EstJ6M2 with 3.1-fold higher catalytic activity and 4.61 times higher catalytic efficiency (Kcat/Km) was identified by staggered extension PCR. Targeting four mutation sites of EstJ6M2, a variant EstJ6M3.1 was gained by site-directed saturation mutagenesis and displayed 4.3-fold higher activity and 5.97 times higher Kcat/Km than WT. The expression level of three mutants EstJ6M1.1, EstJ6M2, and EstJ6M3.1, as well as the WT, increased nearly threefold after a strong promoter replacement. These results provide a proof-theoretical basis and practicable pipeline for applying PAE-degrading enzymes.

Abstract
During colonization of soil and plants, biocontrol bacteria can effectively regulate the physiological metabolism of plants and induce disease resistance. To illustrate the influence of Bacillus subtilis R31 on the quality, transcriptome and metabolome of sweet corn, field studies were conducted at a corn experimental base in Zhuhai City. The results show that, after application of B. subtilis R31, sweet corn was more fruitful, with a 18.3 cm ear length, 5.0 cm ear diameter, 0.4 bald head, 403.9 g fresh weight of single bud, 272.0 g net weight of single ear, and 16.5 kernels sweetness. Combined transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses indicate that differentially expressed genes related to plant-pathogen interactions, MAPK signaling pathway-plant, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, and flavonoid biosynthesis were significantly enriched. Moreover, the 110 upregulated DAMs were mainly involved in the flavonoid biosynthesis and flavone and flavonol biosynthesis pathways. Our study provides a foundation for investigating the molecular mechanisms by which biocontrol bacteria enhance crop nutrition and taste through biological means or genetic engineering at the molecular level.

BIOLOGY 2022; 12:biology12010071. [PMID: 36671763 PMCID: PMC9855843 DOI: 10.3390/biology12010071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 12/18/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
Promoters serve as the switch of gene transcription, playing an important role in regulating gene expression and metabolites production. However, the approach to screening strong constitutive promoters in microorganisms is still limited. In this study, a novel method was designed to identify strong constitutive promoters in E. coli and S. marcescens based on random genomic interruption and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) technology. First, genomes of E. coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Corynebacterium glutamicum were randomly interrupted and inserted into the upstream of reporter gene gfp to construct three promoter libraries, and a potential strong constitutive promoter (PBS) suitable for E. coli was screened via FACS technology. Second, the core promoter sequence (PBS76) of the screened promoter was identified by sequence truncation. Third, a promoter library of PBS76 was constructed by installing degenerate bases via chemical synthesis for further improving its strength, and the intensity of the produced promoter PBS76-100 was 59.56 times higher than that of the promoter PBBa_J23118. Subsequently, promoters PBBa_J23118, PBS76, PBS76-50, PBS76-75, PBS76-85, and PBS76-100 with different strengths were applied to enhance the metabolic flux of L-valine synthesis, and the L-valine yield was significantly improved. Finally, a strong constitutive promoter suitable for S. marcescens was screened by a similar method and applied to enhance prodigiosin production by 34.81%. Taken together, the construction of a promoter library based on random genomic interruption was effective to screen the strong constitutive promoters for fine-tuning gene expression and reprogramming metabolic flux in various microorganisms.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23126588. [PMID: 35743032 PMCID: PMC9224341 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23126588] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2022] [Revised: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 06/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Type I L-asparaginase from Bacillus licheniformis Z-1 (BlAase) was efficiently produced and secreted in Bacillus subtilis RIK 1285, but its low yield made it unsuitable for industrial use. Thus, a combined method was used in this study to boost BlAase synthesis in B. subtilis. First, fifteen single strong promoters were chosen to replace the original promoter P43, with PyvyD achieving the greatest BlAase activity (436.28 U/mL). Second, dual-promoter systems were built using four promoters (PyvyD, P43, PaprE, and PspoVG) with relatively high BlAase expression levels to boost BlAase output, with the engine of promoter PaprE-PyvyD reaching 502.11 U/mL. The activity of BlAase was also increased (568.59 U/mL) by modifying key portions of the PaprE-PyvyD promoter. Third, when the ribosome binding site (RBS) sequence of promoter PyvyD was replaced, BlAase activity reached 790.1 U/mL, which was 2.27 times greater than the original promoter P43 strain. After 36 h of cultivation, the BlAase expression level in a 10 L fermenter reached 2163.09 U/mL, which was 6.2 times greater than the initial strain using promoter P43. Moreover, the application potential of BlAase on acrylamide migration in potato chips was evaluated. Results showed that 89.50% of acrylamide in fried potato chips could be removed when combined with blanching and BlAase treatment. These findings revealed that combining transcription and translation techniques are effective strategies to boost recombinant protein output, and BlAase can be a great candidate for controlling acrylamide in food processing.

Abstract
Bacillus subtilis is a well-characterized Gram-positive bacterium and a valuable host for recombinant protein production because of its efficient secretion ability, high yield, and non-toxicity. Here, we comprehensively review the recent studies on recombinant protein production in B. subtilis to update and supplement other previous reviews. We have focused on several aspects, including optimization of B. subtilis strains, enhancement and regulation of expression, improvement of secretion level, surface display of proteins, and fermentation optimization. Among them, optimization of B. subtilis strains mainly involves undirected chemical/physical mutagenesis and selection and genetic manipulation; enhancement and regulation of expression comprises autonomous plasmid and integrated expression, promoter regulation and engineering, and fine-tuning gene expression based on proteases and molecular chaperones; improvement of secretion level predominantly involves secretion pathway and signal peptide screening and optimization; surface display of proteins includes surface display of proteins on spores or vegetative cells; and fermentation optimization incorporates medium optimization, process condition optimization, and feeding strategy optimization. Furthermore, we propose some novel methods and future challenges for recombinant protein production in B. subtilis.Key points• A comprehensive review on recombinant protein production in Bacillus subtilis.• Novel techniques facilitate recombinant protein expression and secretion.• Surface display of proteins has significant potential for different applications.

Abstract
Bacillus subtilis is a successful host for producing recombinant proteins. Its GRAS (generally recognized as safe) status and its remarkable innate ability to absorb and incorporate exogenous DNA into its genome make this organism an ideal platform for the heterologous expression of bioactive substances. The factors that corroborate its value can be attributed to the scientific knowledge obtained from decades of study regarding its biology that has fostered the development of several genetic engineering strategies, such as the use of different plasmids, engineering of constitutive or double promoters, chemical inducers, systems of self-inducing expression with or without a secretion system that uses a signal peptide, and so on. Tools that enrich the technological arsenal of this expression platform improve the efficiency and reduce the costs of production of proteins of biotechnological importance. Therefore, this review aims to highlight the major advances involving recombinant expression systems developed in B. subtilis, thus sustaining the generation of knowledge and its application in future research. It was verified that this bacterium is a model in constant demand and studies of the expression of recombinant proteins on a large scale are increasing in number. As such, it represents a powerful bacterial host for academic research and industrial purposes.

Microbial starch debranching enzymes: Developments and applications. Biotechnol Adv 2021; 50:107786. [PMID: 34147588 DOI: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2021.107786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2020] [Revised: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Starch debranching enzymes (SDBEs) hydrolyze the α-1,6 glycosidic bonds in polysaccharides such as starch, amylopectin, pullulan and glycogen. SDBEs are also important enzymes for the preparation of sugar syrup, resistant starch and cyclodextrin. As the synergistic catalysis of SDBEs and other starch-acting hydrolases can effectively improve the raw material utilization and production efficiency during starch processing steps such as saccharification and modification, they have attracted substantial research interest in the past decades. The substrate specificities of the two major members of SDBEs, pullulanases and isoamylases, are quite different. Pullulanases generally require at least two α-1,4 linked glucose units existing on both sugar chains linked by the α-1,6 bond, while isoamylases require at least three units of α-1,4 linked glucose. SDBEs mainly belong to glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 13 and 57. Except for GH57 type II pullulanse, GH13 pullulanases and isoamylases share plenty of similarities in sequence and structure of the core catalytic domains. However, the N-terminal domains, which might be one of the determinants contributing to the substrate binding of SDBEs, are distinct in different enzymes. In order to overcome the current defects of SDBEs in catalytic efficiency, thermostability and expression level, great efforts have been made to develop effective enzyme engineering and fermentation strategies. Herein, the diverse biochemical properties and distinct features in the sequence and structure of pullulanase and isoamylase from different sources are summarized. Up-to-date developments in the enzyme engineering, heterologous production and industrial applications of SDBEs is also reviewed. Finally, research perspective which could help understanding and broadening the applications of SDBEs are provided.

Abstract
Pullulanase is a debranching enzyme that cleaves explicitly α-1,6 glycosidic bonds, which is widely used in starch saccharification, production of glucose, maltose, and bioethanol. The thermal-resistant pullulanase is isolated from a variety of microorganisms; however, the lack of industrial production of pullulanase has hindered the transformation of the laboratory to industry. In this study, the expensive maltose syrup and soybean meal powder were replaced with cheap corn starch and corn steep liquor, exhibiting 440 U/mL of pullulanase in shake flasks by changing the C/N value and the total energy of the medium. Subsequently, the cultivation conditions were explored in a 50-L and 50-m3 bioreactor. In batch culture, the pullulanase activity reached 896 U/mL, while it increased to 1743 U/mL in fed-batch culture by controlling the dissolved oxygen, pH, reducing sugar content, and temperature. Remarkably, the cultivation volume was enlarged to 50 m3 based on the technical parameters of fed-batch culture. The industrial production of pullulanase was successful, and the activity achieved 1546 U/mL. When the product was stored at room temperature (25 °C) for 6 months, the pullulanase activity was over 90%. The half-lives at 60 and 80 °C were 119.45 h and 51.18 h, respectively, which satisfied the industrial application requirements of pullulanase.

Abstract
Undoubtedly, the food industry is undergoing a dynamic process of transformation in its continual development in order to meet the requirements and solve the great problems represented by a constantly growing global population and food claimant in both quantity and quality. In this sense, it is necessary to evaluate the technological trends and advances that will change the landscape of the food processing industry, highlighting the latest requirements for equipment functionality. In particular, it is crucial to evaluate the influence of sustainable green biotechnology-based technologies to consolidate the food industry of the future, today, and it must be done by analyzing the mega-consumption trends that shape the future of industry, which range from local sourcing to on-the-go food, to an increase in organic foods and clean labels (understanding ingredients on food labels). While these things may seem alien to food manufacturing, they have a considerable influence on the way products are manufactured. This paper reviews in detail the conditions of the food industry, and particularly analyzes the application of emerging technologies in food preservation, extraction of bioactive compounds, bioengineering tools and other bio-based strategies for the development of the food industry.
