Abstract
Xylitol is an increasingly popular functional food additive, and the newly isolated yeast Wickerhamomyces anomalus WA has shown extensive substrate utilization capability, with the ability to grow on hexose (d-galactose, d-glucose, d-mannose, l-fructose, and d-sorbose) and pentose (d-xylose and l-arabinose) substrates, as well as high tolerance to xylose at concentrations of up to 300 g/L. Optimal xylitol fermentation conditions were achieved at 32 °C, 140 rpm, pH 5.0, and initial cell concentration OD600 of 2.0, with YP (yeast extract 10 g/L, peptone 20 g/L) as the optimal nitrogen source. Xylitol yield increased from 0.61 g/g to 0.91 g/g with an increase in initial substrate concentration from 20 g/L to 180 g/L. Additionally, 20 g/L glycerol was found to be the optimal co-substrate for xylitol fermentation, resulting in an increase in xylitol yield from 0.82 g/g to 0.94 g/g at 140 rpm, enabling complete conversion of xylose to xylitol.

Singh S, Arya SK, Krishania M. Bioprocess optimization for enhanced xylitol synthesis by new isolate Meyerozyma caribbica CP02 using rice straw. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS 2024; 17:31. [PMID: 38402217 PMCID: PMC10894501 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-024-02475-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 02/10/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024]
Abstract
The present work models the fermentation process parameters of the newly isolated, Meyerozyma caribbica CP02 for enhanced xylitol production and its fermentability study on rice straw hydrolysate. The study examined the impact of each of the process variables by one variable at a time optimization followed by statistical validation. Temperature of 32 °C, pH of 3.5, agitation of 200 rpm, 1.5% (v/v) inoculum, 80 gL-1 initial xylose was optimized. Subsequently, a sequential two-stage agitation approach was adopted for fermentation. At these optimized conditions, xylitol yield of 0.77 gg-1 and 0.64 gg-1 was achieved using media containing commercial and rice straw derived xylose, respectively. For scale up, in 3L batch bioreactor, the highest xylitol yield (0.63 gg-1) was attained at 72 h with rice straw hydrolysate media containing initial xylose (59.48 ± 0.82 gL-1) along with inhibitors (1.55 ± 0.10 gL-1 aliphatic acids, 0.0.048 ± 0.11 gL-1 furans, 0.64 ± 0.23 gL-1 total phenols). The results imply that even under circumstances characterized by an acidic pH and elevated initial xylose level, M. caribbica CP02, as an isolate, displays robustness and shows favorable fermentability of rice straw hydrolysate. Therefore, isolate CP02 has potential to be used in bio-refineries for high yield xylitol production with minimal hydrolysate processing requirements.

Abstract
Acid-tolerant yeasts are one of the important keys to producing ethanol from acidic substrates, especially from molasses and agricultural waste. In this study, selected cultivars of yeasts isolated from a variety of locations such as botanical gardens in Thailand urban areas, which are often found highly polluted in the air such as carbon dioxide which is a cause of acid rain. There is limited information about how tolerant yeasts, are or their functional properties related to the environment. Yeast species were determined by using the 18S rDNA sequence guide. The level of acid tolerance was evaluated by adding to the culture medium lactic acid (300-900 mM), acetic acid (100-400 mM), and propionic acid (25-100 mM). 18S rDNA analysis has shown a %similarity of the nucleotide sequence higher than 98.65% compared to the database. Schwanniomyces etchellsii strains found in urban city soil were notable for their tolerance of lactic acid up to 100 mM. There are two main types of yeasts in overall acid tolerance: S. etchellsii, which is recognized as an osmotic pressure-resistant species that is highly resistant to fermentation inhibitors and produces ethanol; and Schizosaccharomyces pombe, which cell wall has been reported to be characterized by accumulation of α-(1,3)-glucan and malic acid can be used in metabolic pathways. The results show that S. pombe, isolated from rice paddy fields, can grow efficiently in acetic and propionic acid up to 400 mM and 100 mM, respectively. This species could be cultured in ethanol at a concentration of 12.5% (v/v). Moreover, it presented high ethanol and acetic acid production of 14.5-15.9 g/L and 7-10 g/L, respectively, with or without acidic conditions. In comparison, S. etchellsii, isolated from the botanical garden soil, which is grown in acetic, propionic, and lactic acid, was also indicated to be an organic acid-tolerant species.

Abstract
Xylitol, a sugar substitute, is widely used in various food formulations and finds a steady global market. In this study, xylitol crystals were produced from corncob by fermentation (as an alternative to the chemical catalytic process) by a GRAS yeast Pichia caribbica MTCC 5703 and characterized in detail for their purity and presence of any possible contaminant that may adversely affect mammalian cell growth and proliferation. The acute and chronic oral toxicity trials demonstrated no gross pathological changes with average weekly weight gain in female Wistar rats at high xylitol loading (LD50 > 10,000 mg/kg body weight). The clinical chemistry analysis supported the evidence of no dose-dependent effect by analyzing blood biochemical parameters. The finding suggests the possible application of the crystals (> 98% purity) as a food-grade ingredient for commercial manufacture pending human trials.

Abstract
The need for a more sustainable society has prompted the development of bio-based processes to produce fuels, chemicals, and materials in substitution for fossil-based ones. In this context, microorganisms have been employed to convert renewable carbon sources into various products. The methylotrophic yeast Komagataella phaffii has been extensively used in the production of heterologous proteins. More recently, it has been explored as a host organism to produce various chemicals through new metabolic engineering and synthetic biology tools. This review first summarizes Komagataella taxonomy and diversity and then highlights the recent approaches in cell engineering to produce renewable chemicals and proteins. Finally, strategies to optimize and develop new fermentative processes using K. phaffii as a cell factory are presented and discussed. The yeast K. phaffii shows an outstanding performance for renewable chemicals and protein production due to its ability to metabolize different carbon sources and the availability of engineering tools. Indeed, it has been employed in producing alcohols, carboxylic acids, proteins, and other compounds using different carbon sources, including glycerol, glucose, xylose, methanol, and even CO2.

Abstract
Interest in the production of renewable chemicals from biomass has increased in the past years. Among these chemicals, carboxylic acids represent a significant part of the most desirable bio-based products. Xylonic acid is a five-carbon sugar-acid obtained from xylose oxidation that can be used in several industrial applications, including food, pharmaceutical, and construction industries. So far, the production of xylonic acid has not yet been available at an industrial scale; however, several microbial bio-based production processes are under development. This review summarizes the recent advances in pathway characterization, genetic engineering, and fermentative strategies to improve xylonic acid production by microorganisms from xylose or lignocellulosic hydrolysates. In addition, the strengths of the available microbial strains and processes and the major requirements for achieving biotechnological production of xylonic acid at a commercial scale are discussed. Efficient native and engineered microbial strains have been reported. Xylonic acid titers as high as 586 and 171 g L-1 were obtained from bacterial and yeast strains, respectively, in a laboratory medium. Furthermore, relevant academic and industrial players associated with xylonic acid production will be presented.

Abstract
Aiming to broaden the base of knowledge about wild yeasts, four new indigenous strains were isolated from corn residues, and phylogenetic-tree assemblings on ITS and LSU regions indicated they belong to Meyerozyma caribbica. Yeasts were cultivated under full- and micro-aerobiosis, starting with low or high cell-density inoculum, in synthetic medium or corn hydrolysate containing glucose and/or xylose. Cells were able to assimilate both monosaccharides, albeit by different metabolic routes (fermentative or respiratory). They grew faster in glucose, with lag phases ~ 10 h shorter than in xylose. The hexose exhaustion occurred between 24 and 34 h, while xylose was entirely consumed in the last few hours of cultivation (44-48 h). In batch fermentation in synthetic medium with high cell density, under full-aerobiosis, 18-20 g glucose l-1 were exhausted in 4-6 h, with a production of 6.5-7.0 g ethanol l-1. In the xylose medium, cells needed > 12 h to consume the carbohydrate, and instead of ethanol, cells released 4.4-6.4 g l-1 xylitol. Under micro-aerobiosis, yeasts were unable to assimilate xylose, and glucose was more slowly consumed, although the ethanol yield was the theoretical maximum. When inoculated into the hydrolysate, cells needed 4-6 h to deplete glucose, and xylose had a maximum consumption of 57%. Considering that the hydrolysate contained ~ 3 g l-1 acetic acid, it probably has impaired sugar metabolism. Thus, this study increases the fund of knowledge regarding indigenous yeasts and reveals the biotechnological potential of these strains.

Abstract
Floral nectar is colonised by microbes, especially yeasts which alter the scent, temperature, and chemical composition of nectar, thereby playing an essential role in pollination. The yeast communities inhabiting the nectar of tropical flowers of India are not well explored. We isolated 48 yeast strains from seven different tropical flowering plants. Post MSP-PCR-based screening, 23 yeast isolates and two yeast-like fungi were identified, which belonged to 16 species of 12 genera viz. Candida (2 species), Aureobasidium (2 species), Metschnikowia (2 species), Meyerozyma (1 species), Saitozyma (1 species), Wickerhamomyces (1 species), Kodamaea (2 species), Pseudozyma (1 species), Starmerella (1 species), Hanseniaspora (1 species), Rhodosporidiobolus (1 species), Moesziomyces (1 species), and two putative novel species. All yeast strains were assessed for their osmotolerance abilities in high salt and sugar concentration. Among all the isolates, C. nivariensis (SRA2.2, SRA1.1 and SRA2.1), M. caribbica (SRA4.8 and SRA4.6), S. flava SRA4.2, and M. reukaufii SRA3.2 showed significant growth in high concentrations of sugar (40-50% glucose), as well as salt (12-15% NaCl). All 25 strains were also screened for their ability to utilise xylose to produce xylitol. Meyerozyma caribbica was the most efficient xylitol producer, wherein three strains of this species (SRA4.6, SRA4.1, and SRA4.8) generated 18.61 to 21.56 g l-1 of xylitol, with 0.465-0.539 g g-1 yields. Through this study, we draw attention towards the tropical floral nectar as a potential niche for the isolation of diverse, osmotolerant, and xylitol-producing yeasts. Such osmotolerant yeasts have potential applications in food industries and biofuel production.

Abstract
The xylitol production was performed with acidophilic Meyerozyma caribbica. The particle size of 0.02 ± 0.01 to 0.1 ± 0.05 mm was rich in glucose (12.0 ± 0.5 g/L), whereas 0.5 ± 0.25 to 2.0 ± 0.5 mm had a high content of xylose (8.0 ± 0.5 g/L). The xylitol production in the synthetic, non-detoxified and detoxified hydrolysate media was studied (50 ± 0.5 g/L) using 10% v/v non - induced cells of M. caribbica for 120 h. At the end of fermentation with the specific growth rate of 0.056 ± 0.01 (μ), xylitol yields of 45.00 ± 1.00%, 10.00 ± 1.00% and 54.00 ± 1.00% were obtained. The detoxification of the hydrolysate prepared using an identified corncob particle size of 0.5 ± 0.25 to 2.0 ± 0.5 mm could be used as the prospective pretreatment process for ecofriendly and industrial scale production of xylitol with M. caribbica.

[PMID: 34068237 PMCID: PMC8153147 DOI: 10.3390/metabo11050312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2021] [Revised: 04/28/2021] [Accepted: 04/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Excessive use of antibiotics has detrimental consequences, including antibiotic resistance and gut microbiome destruction. Probiotic-rich diets help to restore good microbes, keeping the body healthy and preventing the onset of chronic diseases. Honey contains not only prebiotic oligosaccharides but, like yogurt and fermented foods, is an innovative natural source for probiotic discovery. Here, a collection of three honeybee samples was screened for yeast strains, aiming to characterize their potential in vitro probiotic properties and the ability to produce valuable metabolites. Ninety-four isolates out of one-hundred and four were able to grow at temperatures of 30 °C and 37 °C, while twelve isolates could grow at 42 °C. Fifty-eight and four isolates displayed the ability to grow under stimulated gastrointestinal condition, at pH 2.0-2.5, 0.3% (w/v) bile salt, and 37 °C. Twenty-four isolates showed high autoaggregation of 80-100% and could utilize various sugars, including galactose and xylose. The cell count of these isolates (7-9 log cfu/mL) was recorded and stable during 6 months of storage. Genomic characterization based on the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) also identified four isolates of Saccharomyces cerevisiae displayed good ability to produce antimicrobial acids. These results provided the basis for selecting four natural yeast isolates as starter cultures for potential probiotic application in functional foods and animal feed. Additionally, these S. cerevisiae isolates also produced high levels of acids from fermented sugarcane molasses, an abundant agricultural waste product from the sugar industry. Furthermore, one of ten identified isolates of Meyerozyma guilliermondiii displayed an excellent ability to produce a pentose sugar xylitol at a yield of 0.490 g/g of consumed xylose. Potentially, yeast isolates of honeybee samples may offer various biotechnological advantages as probiotics or metabolite producers of multiproduct-based lignocellulosic biorefinery.

Variable and dose-dependent response of Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces yeasts toward lignocellulosic hydrolysate inhibitors. Braz J Microbiol 2021; 52:575-586. [PMID: 33825150 DOI: 10.1007/s42770-021-00489-0] [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: 10/24/2020] [Accepted: 03/29/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Lignocellulosic hydrolysates will also contain compounds that inhibit microbial metabolism, such as organic acids, furaldehydes, and phenolic compounds. Understanding the response of yeasts toward such inhibitors is important to the development of different bioprocesses. In this work, the growth capacity of 7 industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae and 7 non-Saccharomyces yeasts was compared in the presence of 3 different concentrations of furaldehydes (furfural and 5-hydroxymetil-furfural), organic acids (acetic and formic acids), and phenolic compounds (vanillin, syringaldehyde, ferulic, and coumaric acids). Then, Candida tropicalis JA2, Meyerozyma caribbica JA9, Wickerhamomyces anomalus 740, S. cerevisiae JP1, B1.1, and G06 were selected for fermentation in presence of acetic acid, HMF, and vanillin because they proved to be most tolerant to the tested compounds, while Spathaspora sp. JA1 because its xylose consumption rate. The results obtained showed a dose-dependent response of the yeasts toward the eight different inhibitors. Among the compared yeasts, S. cerevisiae strains presented higher tolerance than non-Saccharomyces, 3 of them with the highest tolerance among all. Regarding the non-Saccharomyces yeasts, C. tropicalis JA2 and W. anomalus 740 appeared as the most tolerant, whereas Spathaspora strains appeared very sensitive to the different compounds.

Abstract
Xylitol is a white crystalline, amorphous sugar alcohol and low-calorie sweetener. Xylitol prevents demineralization of teeth and bones, otitis media infection, respiratory tract infections, inflammation and cancer progression. NADPH generated in xylitol metabolism aid in the treatment of glucose-6-phosphate deficiency-associated hemolytic anemia. Moreover, it has a negligible effect on blood glucose and plasma insulin levels due to its unique metabolism. Its diverse applications in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food and polymer industries fueled its market growth and made it one of the top 12 bio-products. Recently, xylitol has also been used as a drug carrier due to its high permeability and non-toxic nature. However, it become a challenge to fulfil the rapidly increasing market demand of xylitol. Xylitol is present in fruit and vegetables, but at very low concentrations, which is not adequate to satisfy the consumer demand. With the passage of time, other methods including chemical catalysis, microbial and enzymatic biotransformation, have also been developed for its large-scale production. Nevertheless, large scale production still suffers from high cost of production. In this review, we summarize some alternative approaches and recent advancements that significantly improve the yield and lower the cost of production.

Combining Xylose Reductase from Spathaspora arborariae with Xylitol Dehydrogenase from Spathaspora passalidarum to Promote Xylose Consumption and Fermentation into Xylitol by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. FERMENTATION-BASEL 2020.

Abstract
In recent years, many novel xylose-fermenting yeasts belonging to the new genus Spathaspora have been isolated from the gut of wood-feeding insects and/or wood-decaying substrates. We have cloned and expressed, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a Spathaspora arborariae xylose reductase gene (SaXYL1) that accepts both NADH and NADPH as co-substrates, as well as a Spathaspora passalidarum NADPH-dependent xylose reductase (SpXYL1.1 gene) and the SpXYL2.2 gene encoding for a NAD+-dependent xylitol dehydrogenase. These enzymes were co-expressed in a S. cerevisiae strain over-expressing the native XKS1 gene encoding xylulokinase, as well as being deleted in the alkaline phosphatase encoded by the PHO13 gene. The S. cerevisiae strains expressing the Spathaspora enzymes consumed xylose, and xylitol was the major fermentation product. Higher specific growth rates, xylose consumption and xylitol volumetric productivities were obtained by the co-expression of the SaXYL1 and SpXYL2.2 genes, when compared with the co-expression of the NADPH-dependent SpXYL1.1 xylose reductase. During glucose-xylose co-fermentation by the strain with co-expression of the SaXYL1 and SpXYL2.2 genes, both ethanol and xylitol were produced efficiently. Our results open up the possibility of using the advantageous Saccharomyces yeasts for xylitol production, a commodity with wide commercial applications in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, food and beverage industries.

Abstract
The ecology and diversity of phylloplane yeasts is less well understood in tropical regions than in temperate ones. Therefore, we investigated the yeast diversity associated with the phylloplane of corn, an economically important crop in Thailand, by a culture-dependent method. Thirty-six leaf samples were collected and 217 yeast strains were isolated by plating leaf-washings. The strains were grouped by PCR-fingerprinting and representative strains were identified by analysis of the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit rRNA gene. In total, 212 strains were identified within 10 species in the Ascomycota and 32 species in the Basidiomycota. Five strains represented potential new species in the Basidiomycota, one strain was recently described as Papiliotrema plantarum, and four strains belonged to the genera Vishniacozyma and Rhodotorula. A higher number of strains in the Basidiomycota (81.6%) was obtained. Hannaella sinensis was the species with the highest occurrence. Principal coordinates analysis ordinations of yeast communities revealed that there were no differences in the similarity of the sampling sites. The estimation of the expected species richness showed that the observed species richness was lower than expected. This work indicated that a majority of yeast associated with the phylloplane of corn plant belongs to the phylum Basidiomycota.
