Abstract
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are intracellular biopolymers that microorganisms use for energy and carbon storage. They are mechanically similar to petrochemical plastics when chemically extracted, but are completely biodegradable. While they have potential as a replacement for petrochemical plastics, their high production cost using traditional carbon sources remains a significant challenge. One potential solution is to modify heterotrophic PHA-producing strains to utilize alternative carbon sources. An alternative approach is to utilize methylotrophic or autotrophic strains. This article provides an overview of bacterial strains employed for PHA production, with a particular focus on those exhibiting the highest PHA content in dry cell mass. The strains are organized according to their carbon source utilization, encompassing autotrophy (utilizing CO2, CO) and methylotrophy (utilizing reduced single-carbon substrates) to heterotrophy (utilizing more traditional and alternative substrates).

[PMID: 38732762 PMCID: PMC11085183 DOI: 10.3390/polym16091294] [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: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 04/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
It has been established that the wild-type Cupriavidus necator B-10646 strain uses saturated fatty acids (SFAs) for growth and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthesis. It uses lauric (12:0), myristic (14:0), palmitic (16:0) and stearic (18:0) acids as carbon sources; moreover, the elongation of the C-chain negatively affects the biomass and PHA yields. When bacteria grow on C12 and C14 fatty acids, the total biomass and PHA yields are comparable up to 7.5 g/L and 75%, respectively, which twice exceed the values that occur on longer C16 and C18 acids. Regardless of the type of SFAs, bacteria synthesize poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), which have a reduced crystallinity (Cx from 40 to 57%) and a molecular weight typical for poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (P(3HB)) (Mw from 289 to 465 kDa), and obtained polymer samples demonstrate melting and degradation temperatures with a gap of about 100 °C. The ability of bacteria to assimilate SFAs opens up the possibility of attracting the synthesis of PHAs on complex fat-containing substrates, including waste.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:14919.

Abstract
The synthesis of PHA was first investigated using WFOs obtained from smoked-sprat heads, substandard fresh sprats, and fresh mackerel heads and backbones. All the WFOs ensured the growth of the wild-type strain Cupriavidus necator B-10646 and the synthesis of PHA, regardless of the degree of lipid saturation (from 0.52 to 0.65) and the set and ratio of fatty acids (FA), which was represented by acids with chain lengths from C14 to C24. The bacterial biomass concentration and PHA synthesis were comparable (4.1-4.6 g/L and about 70%) when using WFO obtained from smoked-sprat heads and fresh mackerel, and it was twice as high as the bacterial biomass concentration from the fresh sprat waste. This depended on the type of WFO, the bacteria synthesized P(3HB) homopolymer or P(3HB-co-3HV-co-3HHx) copolymer, which had a lower degree of crystallinity (Cx 71%) and a lower molecular weight (Mn 134 kDa) compared to the P(3HB) (Mn 175-209 kDa and Cx 74-78%) at comparable temperatures (Tmelt and Tdegr of 158-168 °C and 261-284 °C, respectively). The new types of WFO, studied for the first time, are suitable as a carbon substrates for PHA synthesis. The WFOs obtained in the production of canned Baltic sprat and Baltic mackerel can be considered a promising and renewable substrate for PHA biosynthesis.

Biosynthesis and Properties of Sulfur-Containing Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) Produced by Wild-Type Strain Cupriavidus necator B-10646. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15041005.

Abstract
The study addresses the growth of the wild-type strain Cupriavidus necator B-10646 and the synthesis of sulfur-containing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) by this strain on media containing fructose and three different precursors (3-mercaptopropionic acid, 3',3'-dithiodipropionic acid and 3',3'-thiodipropionic acid). By varying the concentration and number of doses of the precursors added into the bacterial culture, it was possible to find conditions that ensure the formation of 3-mercaptopropionate (3MP) monomers from the precursors and their incorporation into the C-chain of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate). A series of P(3HB-co-3MP) copolymer samples with different content of 3MP monomers (from 2.04 to 39.0 mol.%) were synthesized and the physicochemical properties were studied. The effect of 3MP monomers is manifested in a certain decrease in the molecular weight of the samples and an increase in polydispersity. Temperature changes are manifested in the appearance of two peaks in the melting region with different intervals regardless of the 3MP content. The studied P(3HB-co-3MP) samples, regardless of the content of 3MP monomers, are characterized by equalization of the ratio of the amorphous and crystalline phases and have a close degree of crystallinity with a minimum of 42%, = and a maximum of 54%.

Abstract
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), as bio-based plastics, promise a transition from petroleum products to green and sustainable alternatives. However, their commercial production is yet impeded by high production costs. In this study, we assessed synthetic culture in mono and co-culture modes for bacterial PHA production. It was demonstrated that volatile fatty acids (VFAs) derived from food waste and primary sludge are cheap carbon sources for maintaining high production yields in the synthetic cultures. The maximum obtained PHA was 77.54 ± 5.67% of cell dried weight (CDW) (1.723 g/L) from Cupriavidus necator and 54.9 ± 3.66% of CDW (1.088 g/L) from Burkholderia cepacia. The acquired results are comparable to those in literature using sugar substrates. Comparatively, lower PHA productions were obtained from the co-cultivations ranging between 36-45 CDW% (0.39-0.48 g/L). Meanwhile, the 3-hydroxyvalerate content in the biopolymers were increased up to 21%.

Abstract
Both WCO and WFO can be used as promising substrates for PHA production. First report of a fed-batch fermentation process using WFO as sole carbon source for PHA production. High PHB yields of 0.8 g/g and 0.92 g/g were produced from WCO and WFO, respectively. Highest PHB productivity (1.73 g/L/h) was achieved when using waste oil as carbon source.
The utilization of waste cooking oil (WCO) or waste fish oil (WFO) as inexpensive carbon substrate for the production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) by Cupriavidus necator H16 was investigated. Fed-batch cultivation mode in bioreactor was applied in this study. High cell dry weight (CDW) of 135.1 g/L, PHB content of 76.9 wt%, PHB productivity of 1.73 g/L/h, and PHB yield of 0.8 g/g were obtained from WCO. In the case of WFO, the CDW, PHB content, PHB productivity, and PHB yield were 114.8 g/L, 72.5 wt%, 1.73 g/L/h, and 0.92 g/g, respectively. The PHB productivity and yield obtained in the current study from WCO or WFO are among the highest reported so far for PHA production using oils as sole carbon substrate, suggesting that both WCO and WFO can be used as inexpensive carbon substrates for the production of PHA on an industrial scale.

Abstract
The synthesis of bacterial cellulose (BC) by Komagataeibacter xylinus strain B-12068 was investigated on various C-substrates, under submerged conditions with stirring and in static surface cultures. We implemented the synthesis of BC on glycerol, glucose, beet molasses, sprat oil, and a mixture of glucose with sunflower oil. The most productive process was obtained during the production of inoculum in submerged culture and subsequent growth of large BC films (up to 0.2 m2 and more) in a static surface culture. The highest productivity of the BC synthesis process was obtained with the growth of bacteria on molasses and glycerol, 1.20 and 1.45 g/L per day, respectively. We obtained BC composites with silver nanoparticles (BC/AgNPs) and antibacterial drugs (chlorhexidine, baneocin, cefotaxime, and doripenem), and investigated the structure, physicochemical, and mechanical properties of composites. The disc-diffusion method showed pronounced antibacterial activity of BC composites against E. coli ATCC 25922 and S. aureus ATCC 25923.

Abstract
To reduce anthropological pressure on the environment, the implementation of novel technologies in present and future economies is needed for sustainable development. The food industry, with dairy and meat production in particular, has a significant environmental impact. Global poultry production is one of the fastest-growing meat producing sectors and is connected with the generation of burdensome streams of manure, offal and feather waste. In 2020, the EU alone produced around 3.2 million tonnes of poultry feather waste composed primarily of keratin, a protein biopolymer resistant to conventional proteolytic enzymes. If not managed properly, keratin waste can significantly affect ecosystems, contributing to environmental pollution, and pose a serious hazard to human and livestock health. In this article, the application of keratinolytic enzymes and microorganisms for promising novel keratin waste management methods with generation of new value-added products, such as bioactive peptides, vitamins, prion decontamination agents and biomaterials were reviewed.

Abstract
The current study demonstrates the enhanced production capability of strain Cupriavidus sp. ISTL7 for polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) using acetate and glucose (4.93 ± 0.4571 g L-1) which was characterised analytically by GC-MS, FTIR and NMR analysis. Whole genome sequencing of strain ISTL7 unveiled an array of PHA metabolism genes which included phaA, phaB and phaC. Life cycle assessment of the protocol established that the production was most sustainable with the carbon source acetate. + Glucose as compared to acetate/glucose alone. It also concluded that solvent extraction of PHA and energy consumption during the process requires optimization to sustain the production on ecological fronts. Additionally, acetoacetyl-CoA reductase (phaB) gene was molecularly cloned, expressed and purified (27 KDa, 2.63 mg/ml). Conclusively, Cupriavidus sp. ISTL7 is a potential strain for PHA production with a scope of improvement on energy fronts which would transform the production environmentally and economically appealing.

Abstract
Microbial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) containing short- and medium/long-chain-length monomers, abbreviated as SCL-co-MCL/LCL PHAs, generate suitable thermal and mechanical properties. However, SCL-co-MCL/LCL PHAs with carbon chain longer than nine are difficult to synthesize due to the low specificity of PHA synthase PhaC and the lack of either SCL- or MCL/LCL monomer precursor fluxes. This study succeeds in reprogramming a β-oxidation weakened Pseudomonas entomophila containing synthesis pathways of SCL 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA (3HB) from glucose and MCL/LCL 3-hydroxyalkanoyl-CoA from fatty acids with carbon chain lengths from 9 to 18, respectively, that are polymerized under a low specificity PhaC61-3 to form P(3HB-co-MCL/LCL 3HA) copolymers. Through rational flux-tuning approaches, the optimized recombinant P. entomophila accumulates 55 wt% poly-3-hydroxybutyrate in 8.4 g L-1 cell dry weight. Combined with weakened β-oxidation, a series of novel P(3HB-co-MCL/LCL 3HA) copolymers with over 60 wt% PHA in 9 g L-1 cell dry weight have been synthesized for the first time. P. entomophila has become a high-performing platform to generate tailor-made new SCL-co-MCL/LCL PHAs.

Properties of Degradable Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) Synthesized by a New Strain, Cupriavidus necator IBP/SFU-1, from Various Carbon Sources. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:polym13183142.

Abstract
The bacterial strain isolated from soil was identified as Cupriavidus necator IBP/SFU-1 and investigated as a PHA producer. The strain was found to be able to grow and synthesize PHAs under autotrophic conditions and showed a broad organotrophic potential towards different carbon sources: sugars, glycerol, fatty acids, and plant oils. The highest cell concentrations (7–8 g/L) and PHA contents were produced from oleic acid (78%), fructose, glucose, and palm oil (over 80%). The type of the carbon source influenced the PHA chemical composition and properties: when grown on oleic acid, the strain synthesized the P(3HB-co-3HV) copolymer; on plant oils, the P(3HB-co-3HV-co-3HHx) terpolymer, and on the other substrates, the P(3HB) homopolymer. The type of the carbon source influenced molecular-weight properties of PHAs: P(3HB) synthesized under autotrophic growth conditions, from CO2, had the highest number-average (290 ± 15 kDa) and weight-average (850 ± 25 kDa) molecular weights and the lowest polydispersity (2.9 ± 0.2); polymers synthesized from organic carbon sources showed increased polydispersity and reduced molecular weight. The carbon source was not found to affect the degree of crystallinity and thermal properties of the PHAs. The type of the carbon source determined not only PHA composition and molecular weight but also surface microstructure and porosity of the polymer films. The new strain can be recommended as a promising P(3HB) producer from palm oil, oleic acid, and sugars (fructose and glucose) and as a producer of P(3HB-co-3HV) from oleic acid and P(3HB-co-3HV-co-3HHx) from palm oil.
