Understanding the mechanism of polyethyleneimine-mediated cell disintegration and protein extraction in E. coli: The role of floc network formation and PEI molecular weight. J Biotechnol 2024; 384:29-37. [PMID: 38423471 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiotec.2024.02.016] [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: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
Cell disintegration and protein extraction are crucial steps in downstream process development for biopharmaceuticals produced in E. coli. In this study, we explored the extraction mechanism of polyethyleneimine (PEI) at the cellular level and characterized the floc network that is formed upon PEI addition by Focused Beam Reflectance Measurement and Dispersion Analyzer. PEI disintegrates the cells by detachment of the outer membrane allowing protein to diffuse into the interspace of the flocs. Protein release into the supernatant occurs by diffusion out of the floc network. We could show that the type and concentrations of PEIs with varying molecular weight determines the floc properties and thus the extraction efficiency. We could demonstrate why optimal conditions, using 70 kDa PEI at 0.25 g/g cell dry mass, lead to efficient extraction while at suboptimal conditions extraction is almost negligible. Our findings provide valuable insights into the relationship between floc properties and PEI-driven protein extraction, with potential applications in bioprocessing and biotechnology.

Proteases immobilized on nanomaterials for biocatalytic, environmental and biomedical applications: Advantages and drawbacks. Biotechnol Adv 2024; 70:108304. [PMID: 38135131 DOI: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2023.108304] [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: 08/25/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
Proteases have gained significant scientific and industrial interest due to their unique biocatalytic characteristics and broad-spectrum applications in different industries. The development of robust nanobiocatalytic systems by attaching proteases onto various nanostructured materials as fascinating and novel nanocarriers has demonstrated exceptional biocatalytic performance, substantial stability, and ease of recyclability over multiple reaction cycles under different chemical and physical conditions. Proteases immobilized on nanocarriers may be much more resistant to denaturation caused by extreme temperatures or pH values, detergents, organic solvents, and other protein denaturants than free enzymes. Immobilized proteases may present a lower inhibition. The use of non-porous materials in the immobilization prevents diffusion and steric hindrances during the binding of the substrate to the active sites of enzymes compared to immobilization onto porous materials; when using very large or solid substrates, orientation of the enzyme must always be adequate. The advantages and problems of the immobilization of proteases on nanoparticles are discussed in this review. The continuous and batch reactor operations of nanocarrier-immobilized proteases have been successfully investigated for a variety of applications in the leather, detergent, biomedical, food, and pharmaceutical industries. Information about immobilized proteases on various nanocarriers and nanomaterials has been systematically compiled here. Furthermore, different industrial applications of immobilized proteases have also been highlighted in this review.

Genipin and glutaraldehyde based laccase two-layers immobilization with improved properties: New biocatalysts with high potential for enzymatic removal of trace organic contaminants. Enzyme Microb Technol 2023; 169:110261. [PMID: 37269616 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2023.110261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
This research proposes the preparation of a two-layer laccase biocatalyst using genipin or/and glutaraldehyde as cross-linking agents. The multilayer biocatalysts were prepared using different combinations of genipin and glutaraldehyde in the individual preparation of the first and second laccase layers. First, chitosan was treated with genipin or glutaraldehyde, followed by the immobilization of the first laccase layer to form a single-layer biocatalyst. Then, the immobilized laccases were coated once again with genipin or glutaraldehyde, and a new laccase layer was immobilized onto the system, resulting in the final two-layer biocatalyst. Compared to the single-layer biocatalysts, catalytic activity increased 1.7- and 3.4-fold when glutaraldehyde coating was used to prepare the second laccase layer. However, adding a second layer did not always produce more active biocatalysts, since the two-layer biocatalysts prepared with genipin (GenLacGenLac and GluLacGenLac) presented a decrease in activity of 65% and 28%, respectively. However, these two-layer biocatalysts prepared with genipin maintained 100% of their initial activity after 5 cycles of ABTS oxidation. Nevertheless, the two-layer, genipin-coated biocatalyst resulted in a higher removal of trace organic contaminants, since it removed 100% of mefenamic acid and 66% of acetaminophen, compared with the glutaraldehyde-coated biocatalyst, which removed 20% of mefenamic acid, and 18% of acetaminophen.

Development of 3D Printed Enzymatic Microreactors for Lipase-Catalyzed Reactions in Deep Eutectic Solvent-Based Media. MICROMACHINES 2022; 13:mi13111954.

Abstract
In this study, 3D printing technology was exploited for the development of immobilized enzyme microreactors that could be used for biocatalytic processes in Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES)-based media. 3D-printed polylactic acid (PLA) microwell plates or tubular microfluidic reactors were modified with polyethylenimine (PEI) and lipase from Candida antarctica (CALB) was covalently immobilized in the interior of each structure. DESs were found to have a negligible effect on the activity and stability of CALB, and the system proved highly stable and reusable in the presence of DESs for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate (p-NPB). A kinetic study under flow conditions revealed an enhancement of substrate accessibility in the presence of Betaine: Glycerol (Bet:Gly) DES, while the system was not severely affected by diffusion limitations. Incubation of microreactors in 100% Bet:Gly preserved the enzyme activity by 53% for 30 days of storage at 60 °C, while the buffer-stored sample had already been deactivated. The microfluidic enzyme reactor was efficiently used for the trans-esterification of ethyl ferulate (EF) with glycerol towards the production of glyceryl ferulate (GF), known for its antioxidant potential. The biocatalytic process under continuous flow conditions exhibited 23 times higher productivity than the batch reaction system. This study featured an effective and robust biocatalytic system with immobilized lipase that can be used both in hydrolytic and synthetic applications, while further optimization is expected to upgrade the microreactor system performance.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization on inorganic materials is gaining more attention with the potential characteristics of high-surface-area-to-volume ratios, increasing the efficiency of enzyme loading on the support. Metal oxide hybrid support was prepared by a wetness impregnation of five metal precursors, including CaO, CuO, MgO, NiO, and ZnO, on Al2O3 and used as a support for the immobilization of Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) by adsorption. Maximum activity recovery (70.6%) and immobilization efficiency (63.2%) were obtained after optimization of five parameters using response surface methodology (RSM) by Box–Behnken design (BBD). The biochemical properties of immobilized CRL showed high thermostability up to 70 °C and a wide range in pH stability (pH 4–10). TGA-DTA and FTIR analysis were conducted, verifying thermo-decomposition of lipase and the presence of an amide bond. FESEM-EDX showed the homogeneous distribution and high dispersion of magnesium and CRL on MgO-Al2O3, while a nitrogen adsorption–desorption study confirmed MgO-Al2O3 as a mesoporous material. CRL/MgO-Al2O3 can be reused for up to 12 cycles and it demonstrated high tolerance in solvents (ethanol, isopropanol, methanol, and tert-butanol) compared to free CRL.

Abstract
In a biological system, the spatiotemporal arrangement of enzymes in a dense cellular milieu, subcellular compartments, membrane-associated enzyme complexes on cell surfaces, scaffold-organized proteins, protein clusters, and modular enzymes have presented many paradigms for possible multienzyme immobilization designs that were adapted artificially. In metabolic channeling, the catalytic sites of participating enzymes are close enough to channelize the transient compound, creating a high local concentration of the metabolite and minimizing the interference of a competing pathway for the same precursor. Over the years, these phenomena had motivated researchers to make their immobilization approach naturally realistic by generating multienzyme fusion, cluster formation via affinity domain-ligand binding, cross-linking, conjugation on/in the biomolecular scaffold of the protein and nucleic acids, and self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules. This review begins with the discussion of substrate channeling strategies and recent empirical efforts to build it synthetically. After that, an elaborate discussion covering prevalent concepts related to the enhancement of immobilized enzymes' catalytic performance is presented. Further, the central part of the review summarizes the progress in nature motivated multienzyme assembly over the past decade. In this section, special attention has been rendered by classifying the nature-inspired strategies into three main categories: (i) multienzyme/domain complex mimic (scaffold-free), (ii) immobilization on the biomolecular scaffold, and (iii) compartmentalization. In particular, a detailed overview is correlated to the natural counterpart with advances made in the field. We have then discussed the beneficial account of coassembly of multienzymes and provided a synopsis of the essential parameters in the rational coimmobilization design.

Multi-Combilipases: Co-Immobilizing Lipases with Very Different Stabilities Combining Immobilization via Interfacial Activation and Ion Exchange.

Abstract
The lipases A and B from Candida antarctica (CALA and CALB), Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) or Rhizomucor miehei (RML), and the commercial and artificial phospholipase Lecitase ultra (LEU) may be co-immobilized on octyl agarose beads. However, LEU and RML became almost fully inactivated under conditions where CALA, CALB and TLL retained full activity. This means that, to have a five components co-immobilized combi-lipase, we should discard 3 fully active and immobilized enzymes when the other two enzymes are inactivated. To solve this situation, CALA, CALB and TLL have been co-immobilized on octyl-vinyl sulfone agarose beads, coated with polyethylenimine (PEI) and the least stable enzymes, RML and LEU have been co-immobilized over these immobilized enzymes. The coating with PEI is even favorable for the activity of the immobilized enzymes. It was checked that RML and LEU could be released from the enzyme-PEI coated biocatalyst, although this also produced some release of the PEI. That way, a protocol was developed to co-immobilize the five enzymes, in a way that the most stable could be reused after the inactivation of the least stable ones. After RML and LEU inactivation, the combi-biocatalysts were incubated in 0.5 M of ammonium sulfate to release the inactivated enzymes, incubated again with PEI and a new RML and LEU batch could be immobilized, maintaining the activity of the three most stable enzymes for at least five cycles of incubation at pH 7.0 and 60 °C for 3 h, incubation on ammonium sulfate, incubation in PEI and co-immobilization of new enzymes. The effect of the order of co-immobilization of the different enzymes on the co-immobilized biocatalyst activity was also investigated using different substrates, finding that when the most active enzyme versus one substrate was immobilized first (nearer to the surface of the particle), the activity was higher than when this enzyme was co-immobilized last (nearer to the particle core).

Abstract
Eversa® Transform (ET), and the lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL), liquid commercial lipases formulations, have been immobilized on octyl agarose beads and their stabilities were compared. Immobilized and free ET forms were more thermostable than TLL formulations at pH 5.0, 7.0, and 9.0, and the ET immobilized form was more stable in the presence of 90% methanol or dioxane at 25 °C and pH 7. Specific activity versus p-nitrophenyl butyrate was higher for ET than for TLL. However, after immobilization the differences almost disappeared because TLL was very hyperactivated (2.5-fold) and ET increased the activity only by 1.6 times. The enzymes were also immobilized in octadecyl methacrylate beads. In both cases, the loading was around 20 mg/g. In this instance, activity was similar for immobilized TLL and ET using triacetin, while the activity of immobilized ET was lower using (S)-methyl mandelate. When the immobilized enzymes were used to produce biodiesel from sunflower oil and methanol in tert-butanol medium, their performance was fairly similar.

Abstract
Exploiting carbonic anhydrase (CA), an enzyme that catalyzes the hydration of CO2, is a powerful route for eco-friendly and cost-effective carbon capture and utilization. For successful industrial applications, the stability and reusability of CA should be improved, which necessitates enzyme immobilization. Herein, the ribosomal protein L2 (Si-tag) from Escherichia coli was utilized for the immobilization of CA onto diatom biosilica, a promising renewable support material. The Si-tag was redesigned (L2NC) and genetically fused to CA from the marine bacterium Hydrogenovibrio marinus (hmCA). One-step self-immobilization of hmCA-L2NC onto diatom biosilica by simple mixing was successfully achieved via Si-tag-mediated strong binding, showing multilayer adsorption with a maximal loading of 1.4 wt %. The immobilized enzyme showed high reusability and no enzyme leakage even under high temperature conditions. The activity of hmCA-L2NC was inversely proportional to the enzyme loading, while the stability was directly proportional to the enzyme loading. This discovered activity-stability trade-off phenomenon could be attributed to macromolecular crowding on the highly dense surface of the enzyme-immobilized biosilica. Collectively, our system not only facilitates the stability-controllable self-immobilization of enzyme via Si-tag on a diatom biosilica support for the robust, facile, and green construction of stable biocatalysts, but is also a unique model for studying the macromolecular crowding effect on surface-immobilized enzymes.

Abstract
Lipases are among the most utilized enzymes in biocatalysis. In many instances, the main reason for their use is their high specificity or selectivity. However, when full modification of a multifunctional and heterogeneous substrate is pursued, enzyme selectivity and specificity become a problem. This is the case of hydrolysis of oils and fats to produce free fatty acids or their alcoholysis to produce biodiesel, which can be considered cascade reactions. In these cases, to the original heterogeneity of the substrate, the presence of intermediate products, such as diglycerides or monoglycerides, can be an additional drawback. Using these heterogeneous substrates, enzyme specificity can promote that some substrates (initial substrates or intermediate products) may not be recognized as such (in the worst case scenario they may be acting as inhibitors) by the enzyme, causing yields and reaction rates to drop. To solve this situation, a mixture of lipases with different specificity, selectivity and differently affected by the reaction conditions can offer much better results than the use of a single lipase exhibiting a very high initial activity or even the best global reaction course. This mixture of lipases from different sources has been called “combilipases” and is becoming increasingly popular. They include the use of liquid lipase formulations or immobilized lipases. In some instances, the lipases have been coimmobilized. Some discussion is offered regarding the problems that this coimmobilization may give rise to, and some strategies to solve some of these problems are proposed. The use of combilipases in the future may be extended to other processes and enzymes.

Polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) are attractive materials for immobilizing enzymes due to their unique ionic environment, which can prevent unfolding. Here, we demonstrated that the stability to dry storage and elevated pH were significantly enhanced when negatively charged nitroreductase (NfsB) was embedded in a PEM by depositing alternating layers of the enzyme and polycation (PC) onto porous silica particles. The PC strength (i.e., pKa) and the surface charge of the film were varied to probe the effects that internal and surface chemistry had on the pH stability of the entrapped NfsB. All films showed enhanced activity retention at elevated pH (>6), and inactivation at reduced pH (<6) similar to NfsB in solution, indicating that the primary stabilizing effect of immobilization was achieved through ionic interactions between NfsB and the PC and not through changes to the surface charge of the NfsB. Additionally, films that were stored dry at 4 °C for 1 month retained full activity, while those stored at room temperature lost 30% activity. Remarkably, at 50 °C, above the NfsB melting temperature, 40% activity was retained after 1 month of dry storage. Our results suggest that internal film properties are significantly more important than surface charge, which had minor effects on activity. Specifically, immobilization with the weak PC, poly(l-lysine), increased the optimal pH and the activity of immobilized NfsB (which we attribute to greater permeability), relative to immobilization with the strong PC, poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride). However, NfsB was leached from the PLL film to a greater extent. Overall, these observations demonstrate that internal ionic cross-linking is key to the stabilizing effects of PEMs and that the pH response can be tuned by controlling the number of cross-links (e.g., by changing the strength of the PC). However, this may be at the cost of reduced loading, illustrating the necessity of simultaneously optimizing enzyme loading, internal ionic cross-linking, and substrate transport.

Effects of Enzyme Loading and Immobilization Conditions on the Catalytic Features of Lipase From Pseudomonas fluorescens Immobilized on Octyl-Agarose Beads. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2020; 8:36. [PMID: 32181245 PMCID: PMC7059646 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2020.00036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 50] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2019] [Accepted: 01/15/2020] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The lipase from Pseudomonas fluorescens (PFL) has been immobilized on octyl-agarose beads under 16 different conditions (varying pH, ionic strength, buffer, adding some additives) at two different loadings, 1 and 60 mg of enzyme/g of support with the objective of check if this can alter the biocatalyst features. The activity of the biocatalysts versus p-nitrophenyl butyrate and triacetin and their thermal stability were studied. The different immobilization conditions produced biocatalysts with very different features. Considering the extreme cases, using 1 mg/g preparations, PFL stability changed more than fourfolds, while their activities versus pNPB or triacetin varied a 50-60%. Curiously, PFL specific activity versus triacetin was higher using highly enzyme loaded biocatalysts than using lowly loaded biocatalysts (even by a twofold factor). Moreover, stability of the highly loaded preparations was higher than that of the lowly loaded preparations, in many instances even when using 5°C higher temperatures (e.g., immobilized in the presence of calcium, the highly loaded biocatalysts maintained after 24 h at 75°c a 85% of the initial activity, while the lowly loaded preparation maintained only 27% at 70°C). Using the highly loaded preparations, activity of the different biocatalysts versus pNPB varied almost 1.7-folds and versus triacetin 1.9-folds. In this instance, the changes in stability caused by the immobilization conditions were much more significant, some preparations were almost fully inactivated under conditions where the most stable one maintained more than 80% of the initial activity. Results suggested that immobilization conditions greatly affected the properties of the immobilized PFL, partially by individual molecule different conformation (observed using lowly loaded preparations) but much more relevantly using highly loaded preparations, very likely by altering some enzyme-enzyme intermolecular interactions. There is not an optimal biocatalyst considering all parameters. That way, preparation of biocatalysts using this support may be a powerful tool to tune enzyme features, if carefully controlled.

Abstract
The design of immobilized enzyme preparations is an important and relevant area of modern sciences and technologies. Immobilization of enzymes from animal sources (component I) on natural carriers (component II) increases the system stability by protecting the active site of the enzyme from deactivation; facilitates the separation and accelerates the recovery of the enzyme. This makes reuse possible and provides a significant reduction in operating costs. Hydrolytic enzymes (such as lipases) and polysaccharides (such as chitosan) are the most promising of such pairs of components. The main attention here is devoted to the discussion on lipase immobilization on polysaccharide (mainly - chitin and chitosan). Based on the analysis of the available literature, the most adequate method is the immobilization of lipase from porcine pancreas (LPP) on polysaccharide particles (such as chitin or chitosan) pre-treated with ultrasound (to increase the particle surface area) and glutaraldehyde (for particle activation) that shows reasonably high LPP activity and stability. In order to increase further the activity of the lipase, some authors proposed to incorporate a spacer in the form of 1,3-diaminopropane (or 1,3-diaminobutane) prior to activation of the surface of the chitosan particles. In particular cases, the use of chitin (instead of chitosan) may be an alternative solution for biotechnological applications. Recently the idea of constructing "supramolecular enzyme systems" realized in the so-called "coimmobilized multienzymatic systems" strategy. The most fascinating example is the combined assay of a mixture of native LPP, glycerol kinase (from Cellulomonas) and glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase (from Aerococcus viridans) linked by glutaraldehyde to chitosan (as shell for inorganic nanoparticle core). This material was placed on a Pt-electrode as biosensor and was successfully applied for amperometric determination of the triglyceride level in the serum of healthy and diseased person. Thus, the whole innovative research-production sequence is described by Aggarwal V. and Pundir C.S.: from simple components to advanced material and further biomedical application. Thus, the following approach of lipase immobilization appears the most promising for future applications: a few types of lipases or the combination of LPP with some other enzymes immobilized simultaneously on multifunctional carriers (as nanohybrids of inorganic core and polysaccharide shell).
