Abstract
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the functional activity and storage viability (at 4 °C and 35 °C) of an immobilized as well as lyophilized multienzyme, viz., pectinase, cellulase, and amylase (PCA) that was produced by Bacillus subtilis NG105 under solid state fermentation (SSF) at 35 ℃ for 10 days using mosambi peel as a substrate. After SSF, the culture media was divided into two aliquots. From the first aliquot, the produced ME was extracted, precipitated, and further immobilized on calcium alginate beads (MEICA). In order to immobilize on mosambi peel matrix, the second aliquot was mixed with acetone and subsequently lyophilized (MELMP). Thus, ready MEICA and MELMP extracted 87.5 and 91.5% juice from mango pulp, respectively. In the reusability study, after 5 cycles, MEICA exhibited 23.8%, 24.4%, and 36.5% PCA activity, respectively. The PCA activity of MEICA and MELMP was examined after 60 days of storage at 4 ℃. The result revealed that the PCA for MEICA declined from 100 to 66%, 58.2%, and 64.5%, respectively, while for MELMP, it dropped from 100 to 84.2%, 82.1%, and 69.7%, respectively. Further, after 60 days of storage, the reduction of total protein content (TPC) in free multienzyme (FME), MEICA, and MELMP was 92.2%, 91.5%, and 36.3% observed, respectively. In the localization study, the maximum levels of multienzyme activity were found in cell exudates. This study demonstrated that immobilizing of multienzyme through lyophilization on waste substrates like mosambi peel boosted its stability and shelf-life along with greatly reducing the cost of products.

Sakai K, Okada M, Yamaguchi S. Protein-glutaminase improves water-/oil-holding capacity and beany off-flavor profiles of plant-based meat analogs. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0294637. [PMID: 38055653 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0294637] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023] Open
Abstract
An unresolved challenge for plant-based meat analogs (PBMAs) is their lack of juiciness. Saturated fats significantly contribute to the juiciness of PBMAs, but there are concerns about the undesirable health effects related to saturated fats; thus, demand for their replacement with vegetable unsaturated oils has increased. Although many food additives are used to reduce the leakage of unsaturated oils, this solution cannot meet the clean-label requirements that have been trending in recent years. In this study, we aimed to develop better consumer-acceptable methods using protein-glutaminase (PG) to improve the juiciness of PBMA patties to meet clean-label trends. We found no significant difference between the visual surface of control and PG-treated textured vegetable proteins (TVPs). However, the microstructure of PG-treated TVP had a more rounded shape than that of the control TVP as observed under a scanning electron microscope. After grilling process, the PBMA patties composed of PG-treated TVP showed significantly higher liquid-holding capacities (a juiciness indicator) than the control patties. This suggested that PG treatment could potentially produce PBMA patties with increased juiciness. Interestingly, after the PG-treated TVP underwent the wash process, we found that PG treatment of TVP easily reduced the various beany off-flavor compounds by 58-85%. Moreover, the results of the in vitro protein digestion test showed that the amounts of free amino nitrogen released from PBMA patties composed of PG-treated TVP were 1.5- and 1.7-fold higher than those from control patties in the gastric and intestinal phases, respectively. These findings indicate that PG treatment of TVP could enhance the physical, sensory, and nutritional properties of PBMA patties and meet the clean-label requirements.

Abstract
Mycotoxins are toxic substances produced by fungi and, frequently, different mycotoxins cooccur in food commodities. Ochratoxin A (OTA) and Ochratoxin B (OTB) may co-occur in a variety of foods, like red wines and wheat, presenting a significant risk of population exposure. In this study, we investigated the potential of five lipases (Candida rugosa Lipase, Candida antarctica B Lipase, Thermomyces lanuginosus Lipase, Amano Lipase A from Aspergillus niger (ANL) and Porcine Pancreas Lipase (PPL)) to hydrolyze OTA and OTB into non-hazardous products. Only ANL and PPL degraded both substrates, however, with varying degrees of efficiency. PPL completely degraded OTB (9 h), but only 43% of OTA (25 h). Molecular simulations indicated a high binding energy of OTA to PPL, that can be explained by the impact of the chlorine group, impairing hydrolysis. ANL was able to completely degrade both mycotoxins, OTA in 3 h and OTB in 10 h. The ANL enzyme showed also high specificity to OTA, however, the activity of this enzyme is not affected by chlorine and hydrolyzes OTA faster than OTB. These two enzymes were found to be able to detoxify co-occurring ochratoxins A and B, making isolated enzymes an alternative to the direct use of microorganisms for mycotoxin mitigation in food.

Abstract
Food enzymes have an important role in the improvement of certain food characteristics, such as texture improvement, elimination of toxins and allergens, production of carbohydrates, enhancing flavor/appearance characteristics. Recently, along with the development of artificial meats, food enzymes have been employed to achieve more diverse functions, especially in converting non-edible biomass to delicious foods. Reported food enzyme modifications for specific applications have highlighted the significance of enzyme engineering. However, using direct evolution or rational design showed inherent limitations due to the mutation rates, which made it difficult to satisfy the stability or specific activity needs for certain applications. Generating functional enzymes using de novo design, which highly assembles naturally existing enzymes, provides potential solutions for screening desired enzymes. Here, we describe the functions and applications of food enzymes to introduce the need for food enzymes engineering. To illustrate the possibilities of using de novo design for generating diverse functional proteins, we reviewed protein modelling and de novo design methods and their implementations. The future directions for adding structural data for de novo design model training, acquiring diversified training data, and investigating the relationship between enzyme-substrate binding and activity were highlighted as challenges to overcome for the de novo design of food enzymes.

Abstract
Enzyme kinetics is normally assessed by performing individual kinetic measurements using batch-type reactors (test tubes, microtiter plates), in which enzymes are mixed with different substrates. Some drawbacks of conventional methods are the large amounts of experimental materials, long analysis times, and limitations of spectrophotometry. Therefore, we have developed a method for facile determination of enzyme kinetics using online flow-based mass spectrometry. A concentration ramp of substrate or product was created by dynamically adjusting flow rates of pumps delivering stock solution of substrate and diluent. Precise kinetic measurements were performed by reaction product quantification and initial rate calculation. In the presence of ascending substrate concentrations, the rate of a target enzyme (penicillinase)-catalyzed hydrolysis was varied. By measuring the reaction product continuously, Michaelis constants (KM) could be calculated. The enzyme kinetic measurements for hydrolysis of penicillins were conducted based on this simple, rapid, and low sample consumption online flow device. In the homogeneous reaction, the KM values for amoxicillin, ampicillin, penicillin G, and penicillin V were 254.9 ± 14.5, 29.2 ± 0.3, 2.6 ± 0.1, and 5.4 ± 0.1 μM, respectively. In the heterogeneous reaction, the KM values for amoxicillin, ampicillin, penicillin G, and penicillin V were 408.9 ± 75.1, 114.4 ± 8.0, 21.8 ± 0.7, and 83.3 ± 4.8 μM, respectively. Apart from enzyme assay, the showcased method for the generation of temporal concentration ramps can be utilized to perform rapid quantity calibrations for mass spectrometric analyses.

Abstract
In vitro biotransformation (ivBT) refers to the use of an artificial biological reaction system that employs purified enzymes for the one-pot conversion of low-cost materials into biocommodities such as ethanol, organic acids, and amino acids. Unshackled from cell growth and metabolism, ivBT exhibits distinct advantages compared with metabolic engineering, including but not limited to high engineering flexibility, ease of operation, fast reaction rate, high product yields, and good scalability. These characteristics position ivBT as a promising next-generation biomanufacturing platform. Nevertheless, challenges persist in the enhancement of bulk enzyme preparation methods, the acquisition of enzymes with superior catalytic properties, and the development of sophisticated approaches for pathway design and system optimization. In alignment with the workflow of ivBT development, this chapter presents a systematic introduction to pathway design, enzyme mining and engineering, system construction, and system optimization. The chapter also proffers perspectives on ivBT development.

Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of the main factors accompanying the use of aroma precursors, in particular, of a lipid nature, in food raw materials. The prerequisites for the impact on the precursors of aroma with the help of plant enzymes are given. The purpose of the article is to analyze the biotechnological aspect, which is based on enzymatic reactions with aroma precursors and enzymes of plant origin. Features of the mechanism of action of lipid precursors are highlighted, their diversity causing various characteristic reactions is analyzed, and possible end products of reactions with certain odors are noted. The attention is paid to the issue of the status of the naturalness of flavor precursors in food products, which varies in different countries. A scheme of factors influencing the formation of aroma from lipid precursors has been developed. The influence of pigments of carotenoid nature on the aroma is considered, namely: examples of instantaneous change of watermelon aroma to pumpkin one due to isomerization of carotenoids are given. The main factors of enzymatic formation of aroma from precursors of polyunsaturated fatty acids for their effective use by creating micromicelles are summarized. A way to overcome the barrier of interaction between lipid precursors of a hydrophobic nature and hydrophilic enzymes has been substantiated. It is proposed to accelerate enzymatic reactions under in vitro conditions and use the vacuum effect to overcome the barrier between enzymes and precursors. To explain the effect of vacuum in a system with enzymes, ideas about disjoining pressure and the reasonable expediency of its use are considered. A schematic process flow diagram for the restoration of aroma lost during the technological processing of raw materials is given; it demonstrates the factors for ensuring interfacial activation conditions for enzymes and aroma precursors.

Abstract
Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are secondary metabolites commonly found in members of the family Solanaceae, including potatoes, and are toxic to pests and humans. The predominant SGAs in potato are α-chaconine and α-solanine. We previously reported that Glutamicibacter halophytocola S2, a gut bacterium of the pest Phthorimaea operculella (potato tuber moth), can degrade α-chaconine and α-solanine in potatoes, which can improve the fitness of P. operculella to feed on potatoes with a high content of toxic SGAs. Glutamicibacter halophytocola S2 harbored a gene cluster containing three deglycosylase genes-GE000599, GE000600, and GE000601-that were predicted encode α-rhamnosidase (RhaA), β-glucosidase (GluA), and β-galactosidase (GalA). However, there is limited information is available on the enzyme activities of the three enzymes expressed by this gene cluster and how they degrade the major toxic α-chaconine and α-solanine. In the current study, each enzyme of this gene cluster was produced by a prokaryotic expression approach and the activity of the recombinant enzymes for their target substrate and α-chaconine and α-solanine were evaluated by EPOCH microplate spectrophotometer and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The three enzymes had multifunctional activities, with RhaA and GluA could hydrolyze α-rhamnose, β-glucose, and β-galactose, while GalA can hydrolyze β-glucose and β-galactose. The degradation of α-chaconine and α-solanine was consistent with the results of the enzyme activity assays. The final product solanidine could be generated by adding RhaA or GluA alone. In conclusion, this study characterized the multifunctional activity and specific degradation pathway of these three enzymes in G. halophytocola S2. The three multifunctional enzymes have high glycosidic hydrolysis activity and clear gene sequence information, which help facilitates understanding the detoxification mechanism of insect gut microbes. The enzymes have a broad application potential and may be valuable in the removal of toxic SGAs from for potato food consumption.

Abstract
Increasing foodborne illnesses have led to global health and economic burdens. E. coli O157:H7 is one of the most common disease-provoking pathogens and known to be lethal Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) strains. With a low infection dose in addition to person-to-person transmission, STEC infections are easily spread. As a result, specific and rapid testing methods to identify foodborne pathogens are urgently needed. Nanozymes have emerged as enzyme-mimetic nanoparticles, demonstrating intrinsic catalytic activity that could allow for rapid, specific, and accurate pathogen identification in the agrifood industry. In this study, we developed a sensitive nanoplatform based on the traditional ELISA assay with the synergistic properties of gold and iron oxide nanozymes, replacing the conventional enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP). We designed an easily interchangeable sandwich ELISA composed of a novel, multifunctional magneto-plasmonic nanosensor (MPnS) with target antibodies (MPnS-Ab). Our experiments demonstrate a 100-fold increase in catalytic activity in comparison to HRP with observable color changes within 15 min. Results further indicate that the MPnS-Ab is highly specific for E. coli O157:H7. Additionally, effective translatability of catalytic activity of the MPnS technology in the lateral flow assay (LFA) platform is also demonstrated for E. coli O157:H7 detection. As nanozymes display more stability, tunable activity, and multi-functionality than natural enzymes, our platform could provide customizable, low-cost assay that combines high specificity with rapid detection for a variety of pathogens in a point-of-care setup.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of flavones has drawn considerable attention. However, the presence of flavones and their biosynthesis in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) remain unclear. Here, we confirmed that flavones are present in MicroTom tomato and unexpectedly found that a tomato polyphenol oxidase (SlPPO F) possesses a flavone synthase-like activity and catalyzes the conversion of eriodictyol to luteolin without the need for any cofactor. SlPPO F showed a similar Km value to that of other polyphenol oxidases, and could be inhibited by ascorbic acid. The flavone synthase-like activity of SlPPO F exhibited strict substrate specificity and only accepted flavanones with two hydroxyl groups (3' and 4') on the B ring as substrates. SlPPO F showed higher catalytic efficiency and better thermostability than type I flavone synthase from Apium graveolens, suggesting its possible application in enzyme engineering. In summary, we identified flavones in tomato and unraveled a polyphenol oxidase exhibiting flavone synthase-like activity.

Abstract
There is an intricate network of relations between endophytic fungi and their hosts that affects the production of various bioactive compounds. Plant-associated endophytic contain industrially important enzymes and have the potential to fulfill their rapid demand in the international market to boost business in technology. Being safe and metabolically active, they have replaced the usage of toxic and harmful chemicals and hold a credible application in biotransformation, bioremediation, and industrial processes. Despite these, there are limited reports on fungal endophytes that can directly cater to the demand and supply of industrially stable enzymes. The underlying reasons include low endogenous production and secretion of enzymes from fungal endophytes which have raised concern for widely accepted applications. Hence it is imperative to augment the biosynthetic and secretory potential of fungal endophytes. Modern state-of-the-art biotechnological technologies aiming at strain improvement using cell factory engineering as well as precise gene editing like Clustered Regularly Interspaced Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) and its Associated proteins (Cas) systems which can provide a boost in fungal endophyte enzyme production. Additionally, it is vital to characterize optimum conditions to grow one strain with multiple enzymes (OSME). The present review encompasses various plants-derived endophytic fungal enzymes and their applications in various sectors. Further, we postulate the feasibility of new precision approaches with an aim for strain improvement and enhanced enzyme production.

Abstract
Laccase gene from Bacillus licheniformis NS2324 was cloned and expressed in E. coli by using pUC 18 as cloning vector and pet 15b as expression vector. The purified recombinant laccase (rLacNS2324) showed a molecular mass of 66 KDa. The optimum pH and temperature for rLacNS2324 was found to be pH 8 and 40 °C respectively. The half life of rLacNS2324 at pH 7, 8 and 9 is 24 h. The half life of laccase at 45 °C is 8 h. Laccase activity was increased in the presence of Cu2+ (135.3%), Mn2+ (283.76%), and Co2+ (199.96%) at 5 mM of concentration, but inhibited to 17.01% in the presence of 5 mM Zn2+ ions. rLacNS2324 was found tolerant to NaCl and NaI. Among the inhibitors, it was found to be tolerant to EDTA, however, its activity was inhibited in the presence of sodium azide, dithiothreitol and β-mercapethanol. rLacNS2324 was able to decolorize a bromophenol blue by 85% and phenol red by 75% in 1 h without any mediator. Methylene blue was almost completely degraded (99.28% decolorization) by 10 IUml-1 of laccase at 40 °C, pH 8.0 and in time 4 h. Overall rLacNS2324 showed ability to be used industrially to decolorize dyes in an eco-friendly and cost effective way.

Abstract
The sharp increase in the use of cellulose seems to be in increasing demand in wood; much more research related to sustainable or alternative materials is necessary as a lot of the arable land and natural resources use is unsustainable. In accordance, attention has focused on bacterial cellulose as a new functional material. It possesses a three-dimensional, gelatinous structure consisting of cellulose with mechanical and thermal properties. Moreover, while a plant-originated cellulose is composed of cellulose, hemi-cellulose, and lignin, bacterial cellulose attributable to the composition of a pure cellulose nanofiber mesh spun is not necessary in the elimination of other components. Moreover, due to its hydrophilic nature caused by binding water, consequently being a hydrogel as well as biocompatibility, it has only not only used in medical fields including artificial skin, cartilage, vessel, and wound dressing, but also in delivery; some products have even been commercialized. In addition, it is widely used in various technologies including food, paper, textile, electronic and electrical applications, and is being considered as a highly versatile green material with tremendous potential. However, many efforts have been conducted for the evolution of novel and sophisticated materials with environmental affinity, which accompany the empowerment and enhancement of specific properties. In this review article, we summarized only industry and research status regarding BC and contemplated its potential in the use of BC.

Abstract
Enzymes suffer from high cost, complex purification, and low stability. Development of low-cost artificial enzymes of comparative or higher effectiveness is desired. Given its complexity, it is desired to presume their activities prior to experiments. While computational approaches demonstrate success in modeling nanozyme activities, they require assumptions about the system to be made. Machine learning (ML) is an alternative approach towards data-driven material property prediction achieving high performance even on multicomponent complex systems. Despite the growing demand for customized nanozymes, there is no open access nanozyme database. Here, a user-friendly expandable database of >300 existing inorganic nanozymes is developed by data collection from >100 articles. Data analysis is performed to reveal the features responsible for catalytic activities of nanozymes, and new descriptors are proposed for its ML-assisted prediction. A random forest regression (RFR) model for evaluation of nanozyme peroxidase activity is developed and optimized by correlation-based feature selection and hyperparameter tuning, achieving performance up to R2 = 0.796 for Kcat and R2 = 0.627 for Km . Experiment-confirmed unknown nanozyme activity prediction is also demonstrated. Moreover, the DiZyme expandable, open-access resource containing the database, predictive algorithm, and visualization tool is developed to boost novel nanozyme discovery worldwide (https://dizyme.net).

Abstract
The intensification of processes is essential for the sustainability of the biorefinery concept. Enzyme catalysis assisted by ultrasound (US) may offer interesting opportunities in the agri-food sector because the cavitation effect provided by this technology has been shown to improve the efficiency of the biocatalysts. This review presents the recent advances in this field, focused on three main applications: ultrasound-assisted enzymatic extractions (UAEE), US hydrolysis reactions, and synthesis reactions assisted by US for the manufacturing of agri-food produce and ingredients, enabling the upgrading of agro-industrial waste. Some theoretical and experimental aspects of US that must be considered are also reviewed. Ultrasonic intensity (UI) is the main parameter affecting the catalytic activity of enzymes, but a lack of standardization for its quantification makes it unsuitable to properly compare results. Applications of enzyme catalysis assisted by US in agri-foods have been mostly concentrated in UAEE of bioactive compounds. In second place, US hydrolysis reactions have been applied for juice and beverage manufacturing, with some interesting applications for producing bioactive peptides. In last place, a few efforts have been performed regarding synthesis reactions, mainly through trans and esterification to produce structured lipids and sugar esters, while incipient applications for the synthesis of oligosaccharides show promising results. In most cases, US has improved the reaction yield, but much information is lacking on how different sonication conditions affect kinetic parameters. Future research should be performed under a multidisciplinary approach for better comprehension of a very complex phenomenon that occurs in very short time periods.

Abstract
Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) composting is a treatment in which biodegradable food waste is converted into animal-feed protein and organic fertiliser. BSFL composting has greatest potential for mixed food waste, but under European Union regulations only plant-based waste is permitted as feed for larvae. Biomass conversion efficiency (BCE) in BSFL composting is lower for plant-based waste than for mixed food waste. One way of improving BCE for plant-based waste is to add enzymes to make the waste more available to the larvae, but enzyme pre-treatment is not commonly applied prior to BSFL composting. Therefore this study examined the impact of enzyme pre-treatment duration on process efficiency in BSFL composting of lettuce-cabbage waste pre-treated with enzymes for 0-4 days. The results showed that total solids (TS) in larvae decreased with longer enzyme pre-treatment. Direct addition of enzymes at the start of BSFL treatment (0 day pre-treatment) resulted in 22% higher BCE on a volatile solids (VS) basis compared with the control, while longer pre-treatment did not improve BCE further. Much of the VS was respired in the 0-day pre-treatment, resulting in lower mass of residues at the end of treatment. Longer pre-treatment increased microbial respiration, suggesting that the microbial community consumed more easily available carbohydrates during the pre-treatment step, which counteracted the purpose of enzyme pre-treatment, i.e. increasing BCE during BSFL composting.

Abstract
Microorganisms striving in extreme environments and exhibiting optimal growth and reproduction at low temperatures, otherwise known as psychrophilic microorganisms, are potential sources of cold-active enzymes. Owing to higher stability and cold activity, these enzymes are gaining enormous attention in numerous industrial bioprocesses. Applications of several cold-active enzymes have been established in the food industry, e.g., β-galactosidase, pectinase, proteases, amylases, xylanases, pullulanases, lipases, and β-mannanases. The enzyme engineering approaches and the accumulating knowledge of protein structure and function have made it possible to improve the catalytic properties of interest and express the candidate enzyme in a heterologous host for a higher level of enzyme production. This review compiles the relevant and recent information on the potential uses of different cold-active enzymes in the food industry.

Abstract
How the three-dimensional (3D) chiral environment affects the biocatalysis remains an important issue, thereby inspiring the development of a microenvironment that highly mimics the natural features of enzyme to guarantee enhanced biocatalysis. In this study, two gelators bearing d/l-phenylalanine as chiral centers are designed to construct the 3D chiral catalytic microenvironment for enhancing the biocatalysis of lipase. Such a microenvironment is programmed through chiral transmission of chirality from molecular chirality to achiral polymers. It shows that the chirality of the microenvironment evidently influences the catalytic efficiency of immobilized lipase inside the system, and the 3D microenvironment constructed by right-handed helical nanostructures can enhance the catalytic activity of lipase inside as high as 10-fold for catalyzing 4-nitrophenyl palmitate (NPP) to 4-nitrophenol (NP) and 1.4-fold for catalyzing lipids to triglycerides (TGs) in 3T3-L1 cells than that of the achiral microenvironment. Moreover, the 3D chiral microenvironment has the merits of good catalytic efficiency, high storage stability, and efficient recyclability. This strategy of designing a 3D chiral microenvironment suitable for biocatalysis will overcome the present limitations of enzymatic immobilization in traditional materials and enhance the understanding of biocatalysis.

Abstract
β-Galactosidase (β-Gal) is a widely used enzyme as a reporter gene in the field of molecular biology which hydrolyzes the β-galactosides into monosaccharides. β-Gal is an essential enzyme in humans and its deficiency or its overexpression results in several rare diseases. Cellular senescence is probably one of the most relevant physiological disorders that involve β-Gal enzyme. In this review, we assess the progress made to date in the design of molecular-based probes for the detection of β-Gal both in vitro and in vivo. Most of the reported molecular probes for the detection of β-Gal consist of a galactopyranoside residue attached to a signalling unit through glycosidic bonds. The β-Gal-induced hydrolysis of the glycosidic bonds released the signalling unit with remarkable changes in color and/or emission. Additional examples based on other approaches are also described. The wide applicability of these probes for the rapid and in situ detection of de-regulation β-Gal-related diseases has boosted the research in this fertile field.

Abstract
With a growing amount of structural information of proteins, deciphering the linkage between the structure and function of these proteins is the next important task in structural genomics. To characterize the function of an enzyme at molecular level, placing a reporter on the active site of an enzyme can be a strategy to examine the dynamics of the interaction between enzyme and its substrate/inhibitor. In this chapter, we describe an approach of active-site labeling of enzyme for this purpose. Provided with the fabrication of a fluorescein-labeled AmpC β-lactamase as an example, we herein depict the methodology of a structure-based selection of the location in an enzyme's active site for bioconjugation and the preparation of the active-site labeled enzyme.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to make the point on the fortieth years study on the β-glycosidase from Sulfolobus solfataricus. This enzyme represents one of the thermophilic biocatalysts, which is more extensively studied as witnessed by the numerous literature reports available since 1980. Comprehensive biochemical studies highlighted its broad substrate specificity for β-d-galacto-, gluco-, and fuco-sides and also showed its remarkable exo-glucosidase and transglycosidase activities. The enzyme demonstrated to be active and stable over a wide range of temperature and pHs, withstanding to several drastic conditions comprising solvents and detergents. Over the years, a great deal of studies were focused on its homotetrameric tridimensional structure, elucidating several structural features involved in the enzyme stability, such as ion pairs and post-translational modifications. Several β-glycosidase mutants were produced in the years in order to understand its peculiar behavior in extreme conditions and/or to improve its functional properties. The β-glycosidase overproduction was also afforded reporting numerous studies dealing with its production in the mesophilic host Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, and Lactococcus lactis. Relevant applications in food, beverages, bioenergy, pharmaceuticals, and nutraceutical fields of this enzyme, both in free and immobilized forms, highlighted its biotechnological relevance.

Su L, Yang Y, Wu J. Recombinant expression, characterization and application of maltotetraohydrolase from Pseudomonas saccharophila. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2020; 100:3456-3464. [PMID: 32167164 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.10381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2019] [Revised: 12/03/2019] [Accepted: 03/13/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Maltotetraohydrolase, widely used in food and medical fields, possesses the ability to hydrolyze starch to produce maltooligosaccharides with maltotetraose as the main product. It also has the potential usage in delaying bread aging. RESULTS Pseudomonas saccharophila maltotetraohydrolase was expressed in Bacillus subtilis WS11. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis revealed obvious bands at 57 kDa (maltotetraohydrolase I) and 47 kDa (maltotetraohydrolase II). Both showed similar enzymatic properties, although the catalytic efficiency of maltotetraohydrolase I was 4.93 fold higher than that of maltotetraohydrolase II using soluble starch as substrate. In addition, the maltotetraohydrolase production was further scaled up in a 3-L fermentor, and the highest activity reached 1907 U mL-1 . Then, the recombinant maltotetraohydrolase was used to produce maltotetraose. The maltotetraose yields catalyzed by maltotetraohydrolase I and II reached 73.2% and 69.7%, respectively. Finally, when recombinant maltotetraohydrolase was used in bread-making, texture profile analysis of the bread indicated recombinant maltotetraohydrolase I exhibited a significant anti-aging effect. CONCLUSION This is the first describing high-efficient expression of P. saccharophila maltotetraohydrolase in the food safety strain B. subtilis, and the yield represented the highest level ever reported. Excellent results were also obtained with respect to the preparation of maltotetraose and delaying bread aging using the recombinant maltotetraohydrolase. The present study will help lay the foundation for the industrial production and application of maltotetraohydrolase. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Cyclomaltodextrinase (CDase) is a member of the alpha-amylase family GH13, the subfamily GH13_20. In addition to CDase and neopullulanase, this subfamily also contains maltogenic amylase. They have common structural features, but different substrate specificity. In current work, a combination of bioinformatics and experimental tools were used for designing and constructions of single and double mutants of a new variant of CDase from Anoxybacillus flavithermus. Considering the evolutionary variable positions 123 and 127 at the dimer interface of subunits in the alpha-amylase family, these positions in CDase were modified and three mutants, including A123V, C127Q and A123V/C127Q were constructed. The tertiary structure of WT and mutants were made with the MODELLER program, and the phylogenetic tree of homologous protein sequences was built with selected programs in Phylip package. Enzyme kinetic studies revealed that the catalytic efficiency of mutants, especially double one, is lower than the WT enzyme. Heat-induced denaturation experiments were monitored by measuring the UV/Vis signal at 280 nm, and it was found that WT protein is structurally more stable at 25 °C. However, it is more susceptible to changes in temperature compared to the double mutant. It was concluded that the positions 123 and 127 at the dimeric interface of CDase, not only could affect the conformational stability; but also; the catalytic properties of the enzyme by setting up the active site configuration in the dimeric state.

Abstract
The use of food enzymes (FE) by the industrial food industry is continuously increasing. These FE are mainly obtained by microbial fermentation, for which both wild-type (WT) and genetically modified (GM) strains are used. The FE production yield can be increased by optimizing the fermentation process, either by using genetically modified micro-organism (GMM) strains or by producing recombinant enzymes. This review provides a general overview of the different methods used to produce FE preparations and how the use of GMM can increase the production yield. Additionally, information regarding the construction of these GMM strains is provided. Thereafter, an overview of the different European regulations concerning the authorization of FE preparations on the European market and the use of GMM strains is given. Potential issues related to the authorization and control of FE preparations sold on the European market are then identified and illustrated by a case study. This process highlighted the importance for control of FE preparations and the consequent need for appropriate detection methods targeting the presence of GMM, which is used in fermentation products.

Abstract
As a highly efficient and environmentally friendly biocatalyst, immobilized lipase has received incredible interest among the biotechnology community for the production of biodiesel. Nanomaterials possess high enzyme loading, low mass transfer limitation, and good dispersibility, making them suitable biocatalytic supports for biodiesel production. In addition to traditional nanomaterials such as nano‑silicon, magnetic nanoparticles and nano metal particles, novel nanostructured forms such as nanoflowers, carbon nanotubes, nanofibers and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have also been studied for biodiesel production in the recent years. However, some problems still exist that need to be overcome in achieving large-scale biodiesel production using immobilized lipase on/in nanomaterials. This article mainly presents an overview of the current and state-of-the-art research on biodiesel production by immobilized lipases in/on nanomaterials. Various immobilization strategies of lipase on various advanced nanomaterial supports and its applications in biodiesel production are highlighted. Influential factors such as source of lipase, immobilization methods, feedstocks, and production process are also critically discussed. Finally, the current challenges and future directions in developing immobilized lipase-based biocatalytic systems for high-level production of biodiesel from waste resources are also recommended.

Abstract
Potato juice is a byproduct of starch processing currently used as feed. However, potato proteins are an untapped source of high-protein food for human nutrition if harmful constituents notably glycoalkaloids (GAs) are detoxified. The two principle GAs found in potato are α-chaconine and α-solanine, both consisting of a solanidine aglycone with a carbohydrate side chain. The first step in the detoxification of these compounds is the removal of the trisaccharide. Whole-genome sequencing of a bacterial isolate, Arthrobacter sp. S41, capable of completely degrading α-chaconine and α-solanine, revealed the presence of a gene cluster possibly involved in the deglycosylation of GAs. Functional characterization confirmed the enzymatic activity of the gene cluster involved in the complete deglycosylation of both α-chaconine and α-solanine. The novel enzymes described here may find value in the bioconversion of feed proteins to food proteins suitable for human nutrition.

Abstract
In the present study, Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) decorated with two different nanoparticles namely tungsten disulfide (WS2) and tin oxide (SnO2), nanocomposites (NCs) were synthesized via hydrothermal method. Spectroscopic studies showed that both synthesized NCs possess nearly same functional groups but MWCNT-SnO2 NCs are rich in O-functional group. Microscopic studies revealed that both NCs have different morphological microstructure. Lens culinaris β-galactosidase (Lcβ-gal) was immobilized using glutaraldehyde cross-linker resulted in immobilization efficiency of 91.5% and 88% with MWCNT-WS2 and MWCNT-SnO2 NCs, respectively. Remarkable increase in rate of hydrolysis of whey lactose has been observed with both NCs i.e. Lcβ-gal immobilized MWCNT-WS2 hydrolyzes the 97% whey lactose in 1.5 h while MWCNT-SnO2 showed maximum 92% of whey hydrolysis in 2 h at optimum conditions. Both nanobiocatalyst could serve as a promising candidates for dairy industries and would offer a potential platform for enzyme based biosensor fabrication.

Abstract
The transglutaminases form a large family of intracellular and extracellular enzymes that catalyze cross-links between protein molecules. Transglutaminases crosslinking properties are widely applied to various industrial processes, to improve the firmness, viscosity, elasticity, and water-holding capacity of products in the food and pharmaceutical industries. However, the extremely high costs of obtaining transglutaminases from animal sources have prompted scientists to search for new sources of these enzymes. Therefore, research has been focused on producing transglutaminases by microorganisms, which may present wider scope of use, based on enzyme-specific characteristics. In this review, we present an overview of the literature addressing the origins, types, reactions, and general characterizations of this important enzyme family. A second review will deal with transglutaminases applications in the area of food industry, medicine, pharmaceuticals and biomaterials, as well as applications in the textile and leather industries.

Abstract
With the recent progress in biotechnology, a wide variety of novel enzymes with unique physicochemical properties and diverse applications has been introduced, and new application list continues to extend in the future. Enzymes obtained from microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, yeast are widely applied in numerous food formulations for intensifying their texture and taste. Owing to several desirable characteristics such as easy, cost-efficient and stable production, microbial-derived enzymes are preferred source in contrast to animals or plants. Enzymatic processes have a considerable impact in controlling the characteristics such as (1) physiochemical properties, (2) rheological functionalities, (3) facile process as compared to the chemical-based processing, (4) no or minimal consumption of harsh chemicals, (5) overall cost-effective ratio, (6) sensory and flavor qualities, and (7) intensifying the stability, shelf life and overall quality of the product, etc. in the food industry. Also, enzyme-catalyzed processing has also been designed for new food applications such as extraction of bioactive compounds, nutrient-rich and texture improved foods production, and eliminating food safety hazards. Herein, we reviewed recent applications of food-processing enzymes and highlighted promising technologies to diversify their application range in food industries. Immobilization technology enabled biocatalysts to be used cost-effectively due to reusability with negligible or no activity loss. Integrated progress in novel enzyme discovery, and recombinant DNA technology, as well as protein engineering and bioprocess engineering strategies, are believed to rapidly propagate biocatalysis at industrial-scale food processing or green and sustainable chemical manufacturing.

Abstract
Knowledge of Antarctic habitat biodiversity, both marine and terrestrial, has increased considerably in recent years, causing considerable development in the studies of life science related to Antarctica. In the Austral summer 1986–1987, a new thermophilic bacterium, Parageobacillus thermantarcticus strain M1 was isolated from geothermal soil of the crater of Mount Melbourne (74°22′ S, 164°40′ E) during the Italian Antarctic Expedition. In addition to the biotechnological potential due to the production of exopolysaccharides and thermostable enzymes, successful studies have demonstrated its use in the green chemistry for the transformation and valorization of residual biomass and its employment as a suitable microbial model for astrobiology studies. The recent acquisition of its genome sequence opens up new opportunities for the use of this versatile bacterium in still unexplored biotechnology sectors.

Abstract
Enzymes are essential components of biological reactions and play important roles in the scaling and optimization of many industrial processes. Due to the growing commercial demand for new and more efficient enzymes to help further optimize these processes, many studies are now focusing their attention on more renewable and environmentally sustainable sources for the production of these enzymes. Microalgae are very promising from this perspective since they can be cultivated in photobioreactors, allowing the production of high biomass levels in a cost-efficient manner. This is reflected in the increased number of publications in this area, especially in the use of microalgae as a source of novel enzymes. In particular, various microalgal enzymes with different industrial applications (e.g., lipids and biofuel production, healthcare, and bioremediation) have been studied to date, and the modification of enzymatic sequences involved in lipid and carotenoid production has resulted in promising results. However, the entire biosynthetic pathways/systems leading to synthesis of potentially important bioactive compounds have in many cases yet to be fully characterized (e.g., for the synthesis of polyketides). Nonetheless, with recent advances in microalgal genomics and transcriptomic approaches, it is becoming easier to identify sequences encoding targeted enzymes, increasing the likelihood of the identification, heterologous expression, and characterization of these enzymes of interest. This review provides an overview of the state of the art in marine and freshwater microalgal enzymes with potential biotechnological applications and provides future perspectives for this field.
