Tsuda M, Nonaka K. Recent progress on heterologous protein production in methylotrophic yeast systems. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2024; 40:200.

Abstract
Recombinant protein production technology is widely applied to the manufacture of biologics used as drug substances and industrial proteins such as recombinant enzymes and bioactive proteins. Various heterologous protein production systems have been developed using prokaryotic and eukaryotic hosts. Especially methylotrophic yeast in eukaryotic hosts is suggested to be particularly valuable because such systems have the following advantages: protein secretion into culture broth, eukaryotic quality control systems, a post-translational modification system, rapid growth, and established recombinant DNA tools and technologies such as strong promoters, effective selection markers, and gene knock-in and -out systems. Many methylotrophic yeasts such as the genera Candida, Ogataea, and Komagataella have been studied since methylotrophic yeast was first isolated in 1969. The methanol-consumption-related genes in methylotrophic yeast are strongly and strictly regulated under methanol-containing conditions. The well-regulated gene expression systems under the methanol-inducible gene promoter lead to the potential application of heterologous protein production in methylotrophic yeast. In this review, we describe the recent progress of heterologous protein production technology in methylotrophic yeast and introduce Ogataea minuta as an alternative production host as a substitute for K. phaffii and O. polymorpha.

PLoS Negl Trop Dis 2024; 18:e0012092. [PMID: 38578808 PMCID: PMC11108199 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0012092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Madurella mycetomatis is the main cause of mycetoma, a chronic granulomatous infection for which currently no adequate therapy is available. To improve therapy, more knowledge on a molecular level is required to understand how M. mycetomatis is able to cause this disease. However, the genetic toolbox for M. mycetomatis is limited. To date, no method is available to genetically modify M. mycetomatis. In this paper, a protoplast-mediated transformation protocol was successfully developed for this fungal species, using hygromycin as a selection marker. Furthermore, using this method, a cytoplasmic-GFP-expressing M. mycetomatis strain was created. The reported methodology will be invaluable to explore the pathogenicity of M. mycetomatis and to develop reporter strains which can be useful in drug discovery as well as in genetic studies.

Abstract
Textile industry is one of the oldest industries existing from several centuries. Major concern of the industry is to design, produce, and distribute yarn, cloth, and clothing. Diverse physical and chemical operations are required in order to achieve this. Environmental concerns related to textile industry have attained attention all around the world as it is generating large amounts of effluents having various toxic agents and chemicals. Enzymes have been suggested as the best possible alternative to replace or reduce these hazardous and toxic chemicals. Enzymes like amylase, cellulase, catalase, protease, pectinase, laccase, and lipase have widely been used in textile manufacturing processes. Use of enzymatic approach is very promising as they are eco-friendly, produce high-quality products, and lead to the reduction of energy, water, and time. This review highlights the significance of different enzymes employed in the textile industry at various stages along with the conventional textile processing.

Abstract
Human population growth, industrialization, and globalization have caused several pressures on the planet's natural resources, culminating in the severe climate and environmental crisis which we are facing. Aiming to remedy and mitigate the impact of human activities on the environment, the use of lignocellulolytic enzymes for biofuel production, food, bioremediation, and other various industries, is presented as a more sustainable alternative. These enzymes are characterized as a group of enzymes capable of breaking down lignocellulosic biomass into its different monomer units, making it accessible for bioconversion into various products and applications in the most diverse industries. Among all the organisms that produce lignocellulolytic enzymes, microorganisms are seen as the primary sources for obtaining them. Therefore, this review proposes to discuss the fundamental aspects of the enzymes forming lignocellulolytic systems and the main microorganisms used to obtain them. In addition, different possible industrial applications for these enzymes will be discussed, as well as information about their production modes and considerations about recent advances and future perspectives in research in pursuit of expanding lignocellulolytic enzyme uses at an industrial scale.

Abstract
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are compounds possessing various health properties and are added to functional foods as prebiotics. The commercial production of FOS is done through the enzymatic transfructolysation of sucrose by β-fructofuranosidases which is found in various organisms of which Aureobasidium pullulans and Aspergillus niger are the most well known. This study overexpressed two differently codon-optimized variations of the Aspergillus fijiensis β-fructofuranosidase-encoding gene (fopA) under the transcriptional control of either the alcohol oxidase (AOX1) or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAP) promoters. When cultivated in shake flasks, the two codon-optimized variants displayed similar volumetric enzyme activities when expressed under control of the same promoter with the GAP strains producing 11.7 U/ml and 12.7 U/ml, respectively, and the AOX1 strains 95.8 U/ml and 98.6 U/ml, respectively. However, the highest production levels were achieved for both codon-optimized genes when expressed under control of the AOX1 promoter. The AOX1 promoter was superior to the GAP promoter in bioreactor cultivations for both codon-optimized genes with 13,702 U/ml and 2718 U/ml for the AOX1 promoter for ATUM and GeneArt®, respectively, and 6057 U/ml and 1790 U/ml for the GAP promoter for ATUM and GeneArt®, respectively. The ATUM-optimized gene produced higher enzyme activities when compared to the one from GeneArt®, under the control of both promoters.

Abstract
In this study, a laccase from Madurella mycetomatis (MmLac) was produced heterologously in Pichia pastoris; the initial immobilization in a metal-organic framework (MOF) (MmLac/ZIF-8) was achieved using zinc nitrate and 2-methylimidazole. Due to the instability of MmLac/ZIF-8 in an acidic medium, a silica layer was created on the surface of MmLac/MOF-8. The immobilized laccase composite (silica@MmLac/ZIF-8) obtained was further treated with glutaraldehyde (silica@Glu-MmLac/ZIF-8) to increase stability of composite. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques were used to confirm the immobilization of MmLac and to investigate the morphology of the immobilized laccase samples. The MmLac samples were also characterised in terms of optimum pH, temperature and thermal stability. The optimum pH of all the MmLac samples was determined to be 4.0. The free MmLac showed maximum activity at 55 °C, whereas both silica@MmLac/ZIF-8 and silica@Glu-MmLac/ZIF-8 were maximumly active at 65 °C. The silica@MmLac/ZIF-8 and silica@Glu-MmLac/ZIF-8 were 9.3- and 11.8-fold higher in stability, respectively, than the free MmLac at 65 °C. Furthermore, both silica@MmLac/ZIF-8 and silica@Glu-MmLac/ZIF-8 showed a higher bleaching performance than free MmLac on cotton woven fabric. According to these results, silica@MmLac/ZIF-8 and silica@Glu-MmLac/ZIF-8 may be promising candidates for biocatalysts in laccase-based biotechnological applications.
