Abstract
Explosives are perilous and noxious to aquatic biota disrupting their endocrinal systems. Supplementarily, they exhibit carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects on humans and animals. Henceforth, the current study has been targeted to biotransform the explosive, 2, 4, 6 trinitrophenol (TNP) by wetland peroxidase from Streptomyces coelicolor. A total peroxidase yield of 20,779 mg/l with 51.6 folds of purification was observed. In silico molecular docking cum in vitro appraisals were accomplished to assess binding energy and interacting binding site residues of peroxidase and TNP complex. TNP required a minimal binding energy of-6.91 kJ/mol and was subjected to biodeterioration (89.73%) by peroxidase in purified form, with 45 kDa and a similarity score of 34 by MASCOT protein analysis. Moreover, the peroxidase activity was confirmed with Zymogram analysis. Characterization of peroxidase revealed that optimum values of pH and temperature as 6 and 40 °C, respectively, with their corresponding stability varying from 3.5 to 7. Interestingly, the kinetic parameters such as Km and Vmax on 2,2'-azino-bis 3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) and H2O2 were 19.27 µm and 0.41 µm/min; 21.4 µm and 0.1 µm/min, respectively. Among the diverse substrates, chemicals and trace elements, ABTS (40 mM), citric acid (5 mM) and Fe2+ (5 mM) displayed the highest peroxidase activity. Computational docking and in vitro results were corroborative and UV-Vis spectroscopy, HPLC, FTIR and GC-MS indicated the presence of simple metabolites of TNP such as nitrophenols and benzoquinone, showcasing the efficacy of S. coelicolor peroxidase to biotransform TNP. Henceforth, the current study offers a promising channel for biological treatment of explosive munitions, establishing a sustainable green earth.

ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:3866-3876. [PMID: 38284010 PMCID: PMC10809370 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c07963] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
Dye-decolorizing peroxidases (DyPs) are heme-dependent enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of various substrates including environmental pollutants such as azo dyes and also lignin. DyPs often display complex non-Michaelis-Menten kinetics with substrate inhibition or positive cooperativity. Here, we performed in-depth kinetic characterization of the DyP of the bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor (ScDyPB). The activity of ScDyPB was found to be dependent on its concentration in the working stock used to initiate the reactions as well as on the pH of the working stock. Furthermore, the above-listed conditions had different effects on the oxidation of 2,2'-azino-di(3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and methylhydroquinone, suggesting that different mechanisms are used in the oxidation of these substrates. The kinetics of the oxidation of ABTS were best described by the model whereby ScDyPB exists as a mixture of two kinetically different enzyme forms. Both forms obey the ping-pong kinetic mechanism, but one form is substrate-inhibited by the ABTS, whereas the other is not. Gel filtration chromatography and dynamic light scattering analyses revealed that ScDyPB exists as a complex mixture of molecules with different sizes. We propose that ScDyPB populations with low and high degrees of oligomerization have different kinetic properties. Such enzyme oligomerization-dependent modulation of the kinetic properties adds further dimension to the complexity of the kinetics of DyPs but also suggests novel possibilities for the regulation of their catalytic activity.

Effective degradation of zearalenone by dye-decolorizing peroxidases from Pleurotus ostreatus and its metabolic pathway and toxicity analysis. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 908:168500. [PMID: 37952667 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.168500] [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: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023]
Abstract
The widespread detection of zearalenone (ZEN) in cereal crops and feeds poses a significant threat to both humans and animals. Consequently, the urgency for the international community to address this issue is evident in the demand for safe and effective measures to mitigate zearalenone contamination and explore detoxification methods. In this study, a dye-decolorizing peroxidase (PoDyP4) from Pleurotus ostreatus is characterized for its impressive ZEN degradation effectiveness. PoDyP4 was demonstrated that the ability to almost completely degrade ZEN at pH 6.0 and 40 °C for 2 h, even at high concentrations of 1 mM. The promotion of enzymatic degradation of ZEN was most pronounced in the presence of Mg2+, while Cu2+ and Fe2+ exhibited a notable inhibitory effect. The degradation mechanism elucidated the detoxification of ZEN by PoDyP4 through hydroxylation and polymerization reactions. The resulting metabolic products displayed significantly reduced toxicity and minimal impact on the viability and apoptosis of mouse spermatocytes GC-2 cells, in comparison to the original ZEN. Hydrophobic contacts and hydrogen bonds were found to be crucial for ZEN-PoDyP4 stability via molecular docking. This finding suggests that PoDyP4 may have a promising application in the field of food and feed for zearalenone detoxification.

Microorganisms 2023; 11:2872. [PMID: 38138016 PMCID: PMC10745817 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms11122872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Microbial biotechnology plays a crucial role in improving industrial processes, particularly in the production of compounds with diverse applications. In this study, we used bioinformatic approaches to analyze the genomic architecture of Streptomyces albidoflavus MGMM6 and identify genes involved in various metabolic pathways that have significant biotechnological potential. Genome mining revealed that MGMM6 consists of a linear chromosome of 6,932,303 bp, with a high G+C content of 73.5%, lacking any plasmid contigs. Among the annotated genes, several are predicted to encode enzymes such as dye peroxidase, aromatic ring-opening dioxygenase, multicopper oxidase, cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, and aromatic ring hydroxylating dioxygenases which are responsible for the biodegradation of numerous endogenous and xenobiotic pollutants. In addition, we identified genes associated with heavy metal resistance, such as arsenic, cadmium, mercury, chromium, tellurium, antimony, and bismuth, suggesting the potential of MGMM6 for environmental remediation purposes. The analysis of secondary metabolites revealed the presence of multiple biosynthesis gene clusters responsible for producing compounds with potent antimicrobial and metal-chelating activities. Furthermore, laboratory tests conducted under controlled conditions demonstrated the effectiveness of MGMM6 in inhibiting phytopathogenic microbes, decolorizing and degrading aromatic triphenylmethane dyes, particularly Blue Brilliant G250, from wastewater by up to 98 ± 0.15%. Overall, the results of our study highlight the promising biotechnological potential of S. albidoflavus MGMM6.

Abstract
Lignin modifying enzymes (LMEs) have gained widespread recognition in depolymerization of lignin polymers by oxidative cleavage. LMEs are a robust class of biocatalysts that include lignin peroxidase (LiP), manganese peroxidase (MnP), versatile peroxidase (VP), laccase (LAC), and dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP). Members of the LMEs family act on phenolic, non-phenolic substrates and have been widely researched for valorization of lignin, oxidative cleavage of xenobiotics and phenolics. LMEs implementation in the biotechnological and industrial sectors has sparked significant attention, although its potential future applications remain underexploited. To understand the mechanism of LMEs in sustainable pollution mitigation, several studies have been undertaken to assess the feasibility of LMEs in correlating to diverse pollutants for binding and intermolecular interactions at the molecular level. However, further investigation is required to fully comprehend the underlying mechanism. In this review we presented the key structural and functional features of LMEs, including the computational aspects, as well as the advanced applications in biotechnology and industrial research. Furthermore, concluding remarks and a look ahead, the use of LMEs coupled with computational frameworks, built upon artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), has been emphasized as a recent milestone in environmental research.

Abstract
AIMS Actinobacteria are known to produce extracellular enzymes including DyPs. We set out to identify and characterize novel peroxidases from Streptomyces chartreusis NRRL 3882, because S. chartreusis belongs to the small group of actinobacteria with three different DyPs. METHODS AND RESULTS The genome of the actinomycete Streptomyces chartreusis NRRL 3882 was mined for novel DyP-type peroxidases. Three genes encoding for DyP-type peroxidases were cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Subsequent characterization of the recombinant proteins included examination of operating conditions such as pH, temperature, and H2 O2 concentrations, as well as substrate spectrum. Despite their high sequence similarity, the enzymes named SCDYP1-SCDYP3 presented distinct preferences regarding their operating conditions. They showed great divergence in H2 O2 tolerance and stability, with SCDYP2 being most active at concentrations above 50 mmol l-1 . Moreover, SCDYP1 and SCDYP3 preferred acidic pH (typical for DyP-type peroxidases) whereas SCDYP2 was most active at pH 8. CONCLUSIONS Regarding the function of DyPs in nature, these results suggest that availability of different DyP variants with complementary activity profiles in one organism might convey evolutionary benefits. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF STUDY DyP-type peroxidases are able to degrade xenobiotic compounds and thus can be applied in biocatalysis and bioremediation. However, the native function of DyPs and the benefits for their producers largely remain to be elucidated.

Abstract
A new dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP) was discovered through a data mining workflow based on HMMER software and profile Hidden Markov Model (HMM) using a dataset of 1200 genomes originated from a Actinobacteria strain collection isolated from Trondheim fjord. Instead of the conserved GXXDG motif known for Dyp-type peroxidases, the enzyme contains a new conserved motif EXXDG which has been not reported before. The enzyme can oxidize an anthraquinone dye Remazol Brilliant Blue R (Reactive Blue 19) and other phenolic compounds such as ferulic acid, sinapic acid, caffeic acid, 3-methylcatechol, dopamine hydrochloride, and tannic acid. The acidic pH optimum (3 to 4) and the low temperature optimum (25 °C) were confirmed using both biochemical and electrochemical assays. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters associated with the catalytic redox center were attained by electrochemistry.

Abstract
The conversion of Kraft lignin in plant biomass into renewable chemicals, aiming at harvesting aromatic compounds, is a challenge process in biorefinery. Comparing to the traditional chemical methods, enzymatic catalysis provides a gentle way for the degradation of lignin. Alternative to natural enzymes, artificial enzymes have been received much attention for potential applications. We herein achieved the biodegradation of Kraft lignin using an artificial peroxidase rationally designed in myoglobin (Mb), F43Y/T67R Mb, with a covalently linked heme cofactor. The artificial enzyme of F43Y/T67R Mb has improved catalytic efficiencies at mild acidic pH for phenolic and aromatic amine substrates, including Kraft lignin and the model lignin dimer guaiacylglycerol-β-guaiacyl ether (GGE). We proposed a possible catalytic mechanism for the biotransformation of lignin catalyzed by the enzyme, based on the results of kinetic UV-Vis studies and UPLC-ESI-MS analysis, as well as molecular modeling studies. With the advantages of F43Y/T67R Mb, such as the high-yield by overexpression in E. coli cells and the enhanced protein stability, this study suggests that the artificial enzyme has potential applications in the biodegradation of lignin to provide sustainable bioresource.

Characterization of a Dye-Decolorizing Peroxidase from Irpex lacteus Expressed in Escherichia coli: An Enzyme with Wide Substrate Specificity Able to Transform Lignosulfonates. J Fungi (Basel) 2021; 7:jof7050325.

Abstract
A dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP) from Irpex lacteus was cloned and heterologously expressed as inclusion bodies in Escherichia coli. The protein was purified in one chromatographic step after its in vitro activation. It was active on ABTS, 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (DMP), and anthraquinoid and azo dyes as reported for other fungal DyPs, but it was also able to oxidize Mn2+ (as manganese peroxidases and versatile peroxidases) and veratryl alcohol (VA) (as lignin peroxidases and versatile peroxidases). This corroborated that I. lacteus DyPs are the only enzymes able to oxidize high redox potential dyes, VA and Mn+2. Phylogenetic analysis grouped this enzyme with other type D-DyPs from basidiomycetes. In addition to its interest for dye decolorization, the results of the transformation of softwood and hardwood lignosulfonates suggest a putative biological role of this enzyme in the degradation of phenolic lignin.
