Improvement of thermostability by increasing rigidity in the finger regions and flexibility in the catalytic pocket area of Pseudoalteromonas porphyrae κ-carrageenase. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2024; 40:216. [PMID: 38802708 DOI: 10.1007/s11274-024-04029-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Poor thermostability reduces the industrial application value of κ-carrageenase. In this study, the PoPMuSiC algorithm combined with site-directed mutagenesis was applied to improve the thermostability of the alkaline κ-carrageenase from Pseudoalteromonas porphyrae. The mutant E154A with improved thermal stability was successfully obtained using this strategy after screening seven rationally designed mutants. Compared with the wild-type κ-carrageenase (WT), E154A improved the activity by 29.4% and the residual activity by 51.6% after treatment at 50 °C for 30 min. The melting temperature (Tm) values determined by circular dichroism were 66.4 °C and 64.6 °C for E154A and WT, respectively. Molecular dynamics simulation analysis of κ-carrageenase showed that the flexibility decreased within the finger regions (including F1, F2, F3, F5 and F6) and the flexibility improved in the catalytic pocket area of the mutant E154A. The catalytic tunnel dynamic simulation analysis revealed that E154A led to enlarged catalytic tunnel volume and increased rigidity of the enzyme-substrate complex. The increasing rigidity within the finger regions and more flexible catalytic pocket of P. porphyrae κ-carrageenase might be a significant factor for improvement of the thermostability of the mutant κ-carrageenase E154A. The proposed rational design strategy could be applied to improve the enzyme kinetic stability of other industrial enzymes. Moreover, the hydrolysates of κ-carrageenan digested by the mutant E154A demonstrated increased scavenging activities against hydroxyl (OH) radicals and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radicals compared with the undigested κ-carrageenan.

Abstract
A bacterium designated GXH0434T was isolated from sea shore samples collected from Weizhou Island, Beihai, Guangxi, China. The organism is motile, strictly aerobic, and possesses a rod-coccus cell cycle in association with the growth phase. It can grow at 15-45 °C (optimum 37 °C), at pH 6.0-11.0 (optimum 6.0), and at 0-20% (w/v) NaCl (optimum 5.0-8.0%). The strain is positive for peroxidase and oxidase activity, negative for Voges-Proskauer test, can hydrolyze Tween 20, Tween 60, Tween 80, casein, and is able to produce siderophore and has the function of nitrogen fixation. Molecular phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that GXH0434T was most closely related to Microbulbifer halophilus KCTC 12848T with the similarity of 97.2%, followed by Microbulbifer chitinilyticus JCM 16148T (97.1%) and Microbulbifer taiwanensis LMG 26125T (96.5%). The digital DNA-DNA hybridization and the average nucleotide identity values between GXH0434T and Microbulbifer halophilus KCTC 12848T were 28.90% and 83.38%, respectively, which were below thresholds of species delineation. The genomic DNA G+C content of the strain was 61.9%. The major fatty acids were iso-C15:0, C16:0, iso-C11:0 3-OH, iso-C11:0 and Summed features 8 (C18:0 ω7c and/or C18:0 ω6c). The major polar lipids detected in GXH0434T were diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylcholine (PC). The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-8. Based on the above polyphasic classification indicated strain GXH0434T represents a novel species of the genus Microbulbifer, for which the name Microbulbifer litoralis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GXH0434T (= MCCC 1K07158T = KCTC 92169T).

AMB Express 2024; 14:8. [PMID: 38245573 PMCID: PMC10799840 DOI: 10.1186/s13568-024-01661-z] [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: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2024] Open
Abstract
The industrial applications of the κ-carrageenases have been restricted by their poor thermostability. In this study, based on the folding free energy change (ΔΔG) and the flexibility analysis using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation for the alkaline κ-carrageenase KCgCD from Pseudoalteromonas porphyrae (WT), the mutant S190R was identified with improved thermostability. After incubation at 50 °C for 30 min, the residual activity of S190R was 63.7%, 25.7% higher than that of WT. The Tm values determined by differential scanning calorimetry were 66.2 °C and 64.4 °C for S190R and WT, respectively. The optimal temperature of S190R was 10 °C higher than that of WT. The κ-carrageenan hydrolysates produced by S190R showed higher xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity compared with the untreated κ-carrageenan. MD simulation analysis of S190R showed that the residues (V186-M194 and P196-G197) in F5 and the key residue R150 in F3 displayed the decreased flexibility, and residues of T169-N173 near the catalytic center displayed the increased flexibility. These changed flexibilities might be the reasons for the improved thermostability of mutant S190R. This study provides a useful rational design strategy of combination of ΔΔG calculation and MD simulation to improve the κ-carrageenase's thermostability for its better industrial applications.

Abstract
Alginate lyase can degrade alginate into oligosaccharides through β-elimination for various biological, biorefinery, and agricultural purposes. Here, we report a novel PL7 family exolytic alginate lyase VwAlg7A from marine bacteria Vibrio sp. W13 and achieve the heterologous expression in E. coli BL21 (DE3). VwAlg7A is 348aa with a calculated molecular weight of 36 kDa, containing an alginate lyase 2 domain. VwAlg7A exhibits specificity towards poly-guluronate. The optimal temperature and pH of VwAlg7A are 30 °C and 7.0, respectively. The activity of VwAlg7A can be significantly inhibited by the Ni2+, Zn2+, and NaCl. The Km and Vmax of VwAlg7A are 36.9 mg/ml and 395.6 μM/min, respectively. The ESI and HPAEC-PAD results indicate that VwAlg7A cleaves the sugar bond in an exolytic mode. Based on the molecular docking and mutagenesis results, we further confirmed that R98, H169, and Y303 are important catalytic residues.

Abstract
Alginate lyase is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of alginate into alginate oligoalginates. To enhance enzyme stability and recovery, a facile strategy for alginate lyase immobilization was developed. Novel magnetic chitosan microspheres were synthesized and used as carriers to immobilize alginate lyase. The immobilization of alginate lyase on magnetic chitosan microspheres was successful, as proven by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction spectra. Enzyme immobilization exhibited the best performance at an MCM dosage of 1.5 g/L, adsorption time of 2.0 h, glutaraldehyde concentration of 0.2%, and immobilization time of 2.0 h. The optimal pH of the free alginate lyase was 7.5, and this pH value was shifted to 8.0 after immobilization. No difference was observed at the optimal temperature (45 °C) for the immobilized and free enzymes. The immobilized alginate lyase displayed better thermal stability than the free alginate lyase. The Km values of the free and immobilized enzymes were 0.05 mol/L and 0.09 mol/L, respectively. The immobilized alginate lyase retained 72% of its original activity after 10 batch reactions. This strategy was found to be a promising method for immobilizing alginate lyase.

Abstract
κ-Carrageenase can degrade κ-carrageenan to produce bioactive κ-carrageenan oligosaccharides (KCOs) that have potential applications in pharmaceutical, food, agricultural, and cosmetics industries. Immobilized enzymes gain their popularity due to their good reusability, enhanced stability, and tunability. In this study, the previously characterized catalytic domain of Pseudoalteromonas purpurea κ-carrageenase was covalently immobilized on the synthesized amine-modified zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 nanoparticles with the formation of cross-linked enzyme aggregates, and the immobilized κ-carrageenase was further characterized. The immobilized κ-carrageenase demonstrated excellent pH stability and good reusability, and exhibited higher optimal reaction temperature, better thermostability, and extended storage stability compared with the free enzyme. The KCOs produced by the immobilized κ-carrageenase could significantly decrease the TC, TG, and LDL-C levels in HepG2 cells, increase the HDL-C level in HepG2 cells, and reduce the free fatty acids level in Caco-2 cells. Biochemical assays showed that the KCOs could activate AMPK activity, increase the ratios of p-AMPK/AMPK and p-ACC/ACC, and downregulate the expression of the lipid metabolism related proteins including SREBP1 and HMGCR in the hyperlipidemic HepG2 cells. This study provides a novel and effective method for immobilization of κ-carrageenase, and the KCOs produced by the immobilized enzyme could be a potential therapeutic agent to prevent hyperlipidemia.

Cost-effective production of alginate oligosaccharides from Laminaria japonica roots by Pseudoalteromonas agarivorans A3. Microb Cell Fact 2023; 22:179. [PMID: 37689719 PMCID: PMC10492272 DOI: 10.1186/s12934-023-02170-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 09/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Alginate oligosaccharides (AOs) are the degradation products of alginate, a natural polysaccharide abundant in brown algae. AOs generated by enzymatic hydrolysis have diverse bioactivities and show broad application potentials. AOs production via enzymolysis is now generally with sodium alginate as the raw material, which is chemically extracted from brown algae. In contrast, AOs production by direct degradation of brown algae is more advantageous on account of its cost reduction and is more eco-friendly. However, there have been only a few attempts reported in AOs production from direct degradation of brown algae. RESULTS In this study, an efficient Laminaria japonica-decomposing strain Pseudoalteromonas agarivorans A3 was screened. Based on the secretome and mass spectrum analyses, strain A3 showed the potential as a cell factory for AOs production by secreting alginate lyases to directly degrade L. japonica. By using the L. japonica roots, which are normally discarded in the food industry, as the raw material for both fermentation and enzymatic hydrolysis, AOs were produced by the fermentation broth supernatant of strain A3 after optimization of the alginate lyase production and hydrolysis parameters. The generated AOs mainly ranged from dimers to tetramers, among which trimers and tetramers were predominant. The degradation efficiency of the roots reached 54.58%, the AOs production was 33.11%, and the AOs purity was 85.03%. CONCLUSION An efficient, cost-effective and green process for AOs production directly from the underutilized L. japonica roots by using strain A3 was set up, which differed from the reported processes in terms of the substrate and strain used for fermentation and the AOs composition. This study provides a promising platform for scalable production of AOs, which may have application potentials in industry and agriculture.

Food Res Int 2023; 170:112990. [PMID: 37316063 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112990] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) possess versatile activities (such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and immune-regulatory activities) and have been the research topic in marine bioresource utilization fields. The degree of polymerization (DP) and the β-D-mannuronic acid (M)/α-L-guluronic acid (G)-units ratio strongly affect the functionality of AOS. Therefore, directed preparation of AOS with specific structures is essential for expanding the applications of alginate polysaccharides and has been the research topic in the marine bioresource field. Alginate lyases could efficiently degrade alginate and specifically produce AOS with specific structures. Therefore, enzymatic preparation of AOS with specific structures has drawn increasing attention. Herein, we systematically summarized the current research progress on the structure-function relation of AOS and focuses on the application of the enzymatic properties of alginate lyase to the specific preparation of various types of AOS. At the same time, current challenges and opportunities for AOS applications are presented to guide and improve the preparation and application of AOS in the future.
