Chen M, Zheng M, Chen Y, Xiao R, Zheng X, Liu B, Wang J, Zhu Y. Effect of metal ions on lipopeptide secretion from Bacillus subtilis strain FJAT-4: Negative regulation by Ca 2. J Appl Microbiol 2021; 132:2167-2176. [PMID: 34716970 DOI: 10.1111/jam.15347] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Accepted: 10/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to investigate the effect of metal ions on lipopeptide production by Bacillus subtilis strain FJAT-4 and the mechanism of negative regulation by Ca2+ . METHODS AND RESULTS The quantitative measurement of lipopeptides in response to K+ , Na+ , Mg2+ and Ca2+ addition was carried out by LC-MS. The contents of fengycin and surfactin varied within the range of 116.24-129.80 mg/L and 34.03-63.11 mg/L in the culture media containing K+ , Na+ and Mg2+ , while the levels were 0.86 and 0.63 mg/L in the media containing Ca2+ . Ca2+ at a high concentration (45 mM) did not adversely affect the growth of strain FJAT-4, but caused significant downregulation of lipopeptide synthesis-related gene expression, corresponding to a decrease in lipopeptide production. This inhibition by Ca2+ was further investigated by proteomic analysis. In total, 112 proteins were upregulated and 524 proteins were downregulated in the presence of additional Ca2+ (45 mM). Among these differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), 28 were related to phosphotransferase activity, and 42 were related to kinase activity. The proteomics results suggested that altered levels of three two-component signal-transduction systems (ResD/ResE, PhoP/PhoR and DegU/DegS) might be involved in the control of expression of the fen and srfA operons of FJAT-4 under high calcium stress. CONCLUSIONS The Ca2+ at the high concentration (45 mM) triggers a decrease in lipopeptide production, which might be attributed to the regulation of three two-component signal-transduction systems ResD/ResE, PhoP/PhoR and DegU/DegS. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The regulatory effect of calcium on the expression of genes encoding lipopeptide synthetases can be applied to optimize the production of lipopeptides.

Abstract
Surfactants are multipurpose products found in most sectors of contemporary industry. Their large-scale manufacturing has been mainly carried out using traditional chemical processes. Some of the chemical species involved in their production are considered hazardous and some industrial processes employing them categorised as "having potential negative impact on the environment". Biological surfactants have therefore been generally accepted worldwide as suitable sustainable greener alternatives. Biosurfactants exhibit the same functionalities of synthetic analogues while having the ability to synergize with other molecules improving performances; this strengthens the possibility of reaching different markets via innovative formulations. Recently, their use was suggested to help combat Covid-19. In this review, an analysis of recent bibliography is presented with descriptions, statistics, classifications, applications, advantages, and challenges; evincing the reasons why biosurfactants can be considered as the chemical specialities of the future. Finally, the uses of the solid-state fermentation as a production technology for biosurfactants is presented.

Influence of Phenotypic Dissociation in Bacillus subtilis Strain ET-1 on Iturin A Production. Curr Microbiol 2019; 76:1487-1494. [PMID: 31494740 DOI: 10.1007/s00284-019-01764-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2019] [Accepted: 08/26/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
Iturin A is a very important cyclic lipopeptide produced by several B. subtilis strains and has large commercial and therapeutic application potentials but its production on industrial scale has not been realized yet. In the present study, we have observed that the strain ET-1 of Bacillus subtilis, a producer of Iturin A, can present at least three different colony morphologies, which we arbitrarily called Rough, Smooth, and Mucoid morphotypes (R-, S-, and M-form). Performing HPLC analysis, a significant difference between the amounts of Iturin A produced by the three morphotypes was found. The morphotype R-form showed the highest productivity with yields about 10 and 100 times higher than morphotypes S and M, respectively. The results show that the production of Iturin A by B. subtilis could be strongly influenced by the phenotypic heterogeneity of cells within the inoculum. Indeed, we have observed that, pasteurizing the inoculum before seeding in order to improve the homogeneity removing the phenotypes less able to synthesize the Iturin A, its yields in a bench-scale production could be significantly improved. This can represent an important control factor also at industrial scale to improve the Iturin A yields, the robustness, the replicability, and consequently the cost-effectiveness of fermentation processes.

Study of the correlation between fengycin promoter expression and its production by Bacillus subtilis under different culture conditions and the impact on surfactin production.

Abstract
This work aimed to rely expression of the fengycin promoter to fengycin production under different culture conditions. To this end, Bacillus subtilis BBG208, derived from BBG21, which is a fengycin overproducing strain carrying the green fluorescent protein (GFP) under the control of fengycin promoter, was used to assess the effects of different carbon and nitrogen sources on surfactin and fengycin production and the fengycin promoter expression. The data showed that some carbon sources oriented synthesis of one family of lipopeptides, while most of the nitrogen sources allowed high co-production of fengycin and surfactin. High expressions of promoter Pfen and fengycin synthesis were obtained with urea or urea + ammonium mixture as nitrogen source and mannitol as carbon source. Moreover, temperature, pH and oxygenation influenced their biosynthesis based on the nutrition conditions. Optimization of the production medium increased the fengycin production to 768 mg L-1, which is the highest level reported for this strain. This study defines the suitable nutrient conditions allowing as well the highest expression of the fengycin promoter and portrays the conditions relying on the fengycin and surfactin production.

Abstract
Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by the filamentous fungus Fusarium graminearum is one of the most severe diseases threatening the production of small grains. Infected grains are often contaminated with mycotoxins such as zearalenone and trichothecences. During survey of contamination by FHB in rice grains, we found a bacterial isolate, designated as BN1, antagonistic to F. graminearum. The strain BN1 had branching vegetative hyphae and spores, and its aerial hyphae often had long, straight filaments bearing spores. The 16S rRNA gene of BN1 had 100% sequence identity with those found in several Streptomyces species. Phylogenetic analysis of ITS regions showed that BN1 grouped with S. sampsonii with 77% bootstrap value, suggesting that BN1 was not a known Streptomyces species. In addition, the efficacy of the BN1 strain against F. graminearum strains was tested both in vitro and in vivo. Wheat seedling length was significantly decreased by F. graminearum infection. However, this effect was mitigated when wheat seeds were treated with BN1 spore suspension prior to F. graminearum infection. BN1 also significantly decreased FHB severity when it was sprayed onto wheat heads, whereas BN1 was not effective when wheat heads were point inoculated. These results suggest that spraying of BN1 spores onto wheat heads during the wheat flowering season can be efficient for plant protection. Mechanistic studies on the antagonistic effect of BN1 against F. graminearum remain to be analyzed.

Abstract
The TrigoCor strain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens provides consistent control against Fusarium head blight of wheat in controlled settings but there is a lack of disease and deoxynivalenol suppression in field settings. Since production of antifungal compounds is thought to be the main mode of action of TrigoCor control, we quantified levels of a key family of antifungal metabolites, iturins, as well as monitored Bacillus populations on wheat spikes over 14 days post-application in both the greenhouse and the field. We found that initial iturin levels on spikes in the greenhouse were three times greater than on spikes in the field, but that by 3 days post-application, iturin levels were equivalent and very low in both settings. We also determined that iturins declined rapidly over a 3-day post-application period on wheat spikes in both environments, despite the presence of significant Bacillus populations. Greenhouse trials and antibiosis tests indicated that the lower iturin levels on wheat spikes in the field could be a major factor limiting disease control in field settings. Future efforts to improve Bacillus disease control on wheat spikes and in the phyllosphere of various plants should focus on maintaining higher levels of iturins over critical infection periods.
