Abstract
Many microorganisms have been reported as bioagents for producing ecofriendly, cost-effective, and safe products. Some Bacillus species of bacteria can be used in agricultural applications. Bacillus velezensis in particular has shown promising results for controlling destructive phytopathogens and in biofungicide manufacturing. Some B. velezensis strains can promote plant growth and display antibiotic activities against plant pathogen agents. In this review, we focus on the often-overlooked potential properties of B. velezensis as a bioagent for applications that will extend beyond the traditional agricultural uses. We delve into its versatility and future prospects, the challenges such uses may encounter, and some drawbacks associated with B. velezensis-based products.

Enhancement of polymyxin B1 production by an artificial microbial consortium of Paenibacillus polymyxa and recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum producing precursor amino acids. Synth Syst Biotechnol 2024; 9:176-185. [PMID: 38348399 PMCID: PMC10859264 DOI: 10.1016/j.synbio.2024.01.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Revised: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Polymyxin B, produced by Paenibacillus polymyxa, is used as the last line of defense clinically. In this study, exogenous mixture of precursor amino acids increased the level and proportion of polymyxin B1 in the total of polymyxin B analogs of P. polymyxa CJX518-AC (PPAC) from 0.15 g/L and 61.8 % to 0.33 g/L and 79.9 %, respectively. The co-culture of strain PPAC and recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum-leu01, which produces high levels of threonine, leucine, and isoleucine, increased polymyxin B1 production to 0.64 g/L. When strains PPAC and C. glu-leu01 simultaneously inoculated into an optimized medium with 20 g/L peptone, polymyxin B1 production was increased to 0.97 g/L. Furthermore, the polymyxin B1 production in the co-culture of strains PPAC and C. glu-leu01 increased to 2.21 g/L after optimized inoculation ratios and fermentation medium with 60 g/L peptone. This study provides a new strategy to improve polymyxin B1 production.

Abstract
Organic agriculture is a sustainable method of farming, and confers disease-suppressing abilities to disease-conducive soils via specialized soil microbiomes. This study aimed at transforming a disease-conducive soil from a conventional field into disease-suppressive soil by inoculating soil from an organic field previously established as "disease-suppressive". The effectiveness of the transformed soil was established with the model plant wheat (Triticum aestivum) grown under natural conditions, with regard to its potential in inhibiting fungal phytopathogens, Rhizoctonia solani and Fusarium oxysporum. The conducive soil inoculated with the disease-suppressive soil performed better than the control conducive soil in terms of reduced disease severity in plants, improved soil nutrient content, increased activity of hydrolytic enzymes, and increased abundance of structural and functional microbial markers. The study demonstrates the efficacy of the soil microbiome under long-term organic agriculture in transforming disease-conducive soil into disease-suppressive soils. Such practises are simple and easy to implement, and could greatly improve the sustainability and crop yield in developing countries.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is a growing concern that is affecting public health globally. The search for alternative antimicrobial agents has become increasingly important. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) produced by Bacillus spp. have emerged as a promising alternative to antibiotics, due to their broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against resistant pathogens. In this review, we provide an overview of Bacillus-derived AMPs, including their classification into ribosomal (bacteriocins) and non-ribosomal peptides (lipopeptides and polyketides). Additionally, we delve into the molecular mechanisms of AMP production and describe the key biosynthetic gene clusters involved. Despite their potential, the low yield of AMPs produced under normal laboratory conditions remains a challenge to large-scale production. This review thus concludes with a comprehensive summary of recent studies aimed at enhancing the productivity of Bacillus-derived AMPs. In addition to medium optimization and genetic manipulation, various molecular strategies have been explored to increase the production of recombinant antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). These include the selection of appropriate expression systems, the engineering of expression promoters, and metabolic engineering. Bacillus-derived AMPs offer great potential as alternative antimicrobial agents, and this review provides valuable insights on the strategies to enhance their production yield, which may have significant implications for combating antibiotic resistance. KEY POINTS: • Bacillus-derived AMP is a potential alternative therapy for resistant pathogens • Bacillus produces two main classes of AMPs: ribosomal and non-ribosomal peptides • AMP yield can be enhanced using culture optimization and molecular approaches.

Abstract
Bacillus cabrialesii TE3T is a strictly aerobic and Gram-stain-positive plant growth-promoting bacterium, motile and catalase-positive. In addition, strain TE3T was also recently described as a biological control agent. Here, we present the complete circularized genome of this type strain, as well as a whole genome analysis identifying genes of agricultural interest. Thus, a hybrid assembly method was performed using short-read sequencing through the Illumina MiSeq platform, and long-read sequencing through the MinION sequencing technology by Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT). This assembly method showed a closed circular chromosome of 4,125,766 bp and 44.2% G + C content. The strain TE3T genome annotation, based on the RAST platform, presented 4,282 Coding DNA sequences (CDS) distributed in 335 subsystems, from which 4 CDS are related to the promotion of plant growth and 28 CDS to biological control. Also, Prokka (Rapid Prokaryotic Genome Annotation) predicted a total of 119 RNAs composed of 87 tRNAs, 31 rRNA, and 1 tmRNA; and the PGAP (Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline) predicted a total of 4,212 genes (3,991 CDS). Additionally, seven putative biosynthetic gene clusters were identified by antiSMASH, such as Fengycin, Bacilysin, Subtilosin A, Bacillibactin, Bacillaene, Surfactin, and Rizocticin A, which are related to antimicrobial and antifungal properties, whose gene presence was further supported by the Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline (PGAP) annotation. Thus, the complete genome of Bacillus cabrialesii TE3T showed promising bioactivities for the use of this type strain to bioformulate bacterial inoculants for sustainable agriculture.

Identification and functional analysis of non-coding regulatory small RNA FenSr3 in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens LPB-18. PeerJ 2023; 11:e15236. [PMID: 37214100 PMCID: PMC10194069 DOI: 10.7717/peerj.15236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is an interesting microbe in the food processing and manufacturing industries. Non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs) have been shown to play a crucial role in the physiology and metabolism of bacteria by post-transcriptionally regulating gene expression. This study investigated the function of novel sRNA FenSr3 by constructing fenSr3 deficient strain and complementary strains in B. amyloliquefaciens LPB-18 , which were named LPN-18N and LPB-18P, respectively. The result showed significant differences in fengycin yield between strain LPB -18N and LPB-18P. The production of fengycin was significantly enhanced in B. amyloliquefaciens LPB-18N, compared with that of the strain LPB-18 from 190.908 mg/L to 327.598 mg/L. Moreover, the production of fengycin decreased from 190.464 mg/L to 38.6 mg/L in B . amyloliquefaciens LPB-18P. A comparative transcriptome sequencing was carried out to better understand the complex regulatory mechanism. Transcription analysis revealed that 1037 genes were differentially expressed between B. amyloliquefaciens LPB-18 and B. amyloliquefaciens LPB-18N, including the key regulatory genes in fatty acid, amino acid biosynthesis, and central carbon metabolism, which could provide sufficient quantities of building precursors for fengycin biosynthesis. The biofilm formation and sporulation was also enhanced in the strain LPB-18N, which indicates that FenSr3 could play a vital role in stress resistance and promotes survival in B. amyloliquefaciens. Some sRNAs involved in stress response have been identified in the literature, but their regulatory roles in fengycin production remain unclear. The study will contribute a novel perspective to the regulation mechanism of biosynthesis and the optimization of key metabolites of B. amyloliquefaciens.

Abstract
Acetoin was widely used in food, medicine, and other industries, because of its unique fragrance. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was recognized as a safe strain and a promising acetoin producer in fermentation. However, due to the complexity of its metabolic network, it had not been fully utilized. Therefore, a genome-scale metabolic network model (iJYQ746) of B. amyloliquefaciens was constructed in this study, containing 746 genes, 1736 reactions, and 1611 metabolites. The results showed that Mg2+, Mn2+, and Fe2+ have inhibitory effects on acetoin. When the stirring speed was 400 rpm, the maximum titer was 49.8 g L-1. Minimization of metabolic adjustments (MOMA) was used to identify potential metabolic modification targets 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (serC, EC 2.6.1.52) and glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (pgi, EC 5.3.1.9). These targets could effectively accumulate acetoin by increasing pyruvate content, and the acetoin synthesis rate was increased by 610% and 10%, respectively. This provides a theoretical basis for metabolic engineering to reasonably transform B. amyloliquefaciens and produce acetoin.
