[PMID: 38740158 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
In recent years, the process of producing bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass through biorefining has become increasingly important. However, to obtain a high yield of ethanol, the complex structures in the feedstock must be broken down into simple sugars. A cost-effective and innovative method for achieving this is ionic liquid pre-treatment, which is widely used to efficiently hydrolyze the lignocellulosic material. The study aims to produce a significant profusion of bioethanol via catalytic hydrolysis of ionic liquid-treated lignocellulose biomass. The current study reports the purification of Streptomyces sp. MS2A cellulase via ultrafiltration and gel permeation chromatography. The kinetic parameters and the biochemical nature of the purified cellulase were analyzed for the effective breakdown of the EMIM[OAC] treated lignocellulose chain. The two-step cellulase purification resulted in 6.28 and 12.44 purification folds. The purified cellulase shows a Km value of 0.82 ± 0.21 mM, and a Vmax value of 85.59 ± 8.87 μmol min-1 mg-1 with the catalytic efficiency of 1.027 S-1. The thermodynamic parameters like ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG of the system were studied along with the thermal deactivation kinetics of cellulase. The optimal temperature and pH of the purified cellulase enzyme for hydrolysis was found to be 40 °C and 7. The rice husk and wheat husk used in this study were pretreated with the EMIM [OAC] ionic liquid and the change in the structure of lignocellulosic biomass was observed via HRSEM. The ionic liquid treated biomass showed the highest catalytic hydrolysis yield of 106.66 ± 0.19 mol/ml on the third day. The obtained glucose was fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae to yield 23.43 g of ethanol/l of glucose from the rice husk (RH) and 24.28 g of ethanol/l of glucose from the wheat husk (WH).

Abstract
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a health microorganism closely related to human life, especially in food and pharmaceutical industries. S. cerevisiae W303a and CEN.PK2-1C are two commonly used strains for synthetic biology-based natural product production. Yet, the metabolomic and transcriptomic differences between these two strains have not been compared. In this study, metabolomics and transcriptomics were applied to analyze the differential metabolites and differential expression genes (DEGs) between W303a and CEN.PK2-1C cultured in YPD and SD media. The growth rate of W303a in YPD medium was the lowest compared with other groups. When cultured in YPD medium, CEN.PK2-1C produced more phenylalanine than W303a; when cultured in SD medium, W303a produced more phospholipids than CEN.PK2-1C. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that 19 out of 22 genes in glycolysis pathway were expressed at higher levels in CEN.PK2-1C than that in W303a no matter which media were used, and three key genes related to phenylalanine biosynthesis including ARO9, ARO7 and PHA2 were up-regulated in CEN.PK2-1C compared with W303a when cultured in YPD medium, whereas seven DEGs associated with phospholipid biosynthesis were up-regulated in W303a compared with CEN.PK2-1C when cultured in SD medium. The high phenylalanine produced by CEN.PK2-1C and high phospholipids produced by W303a indicated that CEN.PK2-1C may be more suitable for synthesis of natural products with phenylalanine as precursor, whereas W303a may be more appropriate for synthesis of phospholipid metabolites. This finding provides primary information for strain selection between W303a and CEN.PK2-1C for synthetic biology-based natural product production.

Ethanol mediates the interaction between Caenorhabditis elegans and the nematophagous fungus Purpureocillium lavendulum. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0127023. [PMID: 37560934 PMCID: PMC10580998 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01270-23] [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: 03/24/2023] [Accepted: 06/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Accurately recognizing pathogens by the host is vital for initiating appropriate immune response against infecting microorganisms. Caenorhabditis elegans has no known receptor to recognize pathogen-associated molecular pattern. However, recent studies showed that nematodes have a strong specificity for transcriptomes infected by different pathogens, indicating that they can identify different pathogenic microorganisms. However, the mechanism(s) for such specificity remains largely unknown. In this study, we showed that the nematophagous fungus Purpureocillium lavendulum can infect the intestinal tract of the nematode C. elegans and the infection led to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the infected intestinal tract, which suppressed fungal growth. Co-transcriptional analysis revealed that fungal genes related to anaerobic respiration and ethanol production were up-regulated during infection. Meanwhile, the ethanol dehydrogenase Sodh-1 in C. elegans was also up-regulated. Together, these results suggested that the infecting fungi encounter hypoxia stress in the nematode gut and that ethanol may play a role in the host-pathogen interaction. Ethanol production in vitro during fungal cultivation in hypoxia conditions was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Direct treatment of C. elegans with ethanol elevated the sodh-1 expression and ROS accumulation while repressing a series of immunity genes that were also repressed during fungal infection. Mutation of sodh-1 in C. elegans blocked ROS accumulation and increased the nematode's susceptibility to fungal infection. Our study revealed a new recognition and antifungal mechanism in C. elegans. The novel mechanism of ethanol-mediated interaction between the fungus and nematode provides new insights into fungal pathogenesis and for developing alternative biocontrol of pathogenic nematodes by nematophagous fungi. IMPORTANCE Nematodes are among the most abundant animals on our planet. Many of them are parasites in animals and plants and cause human and animal health problems as well as agricultural losses. Studying the interaction of nematodes and their microbial pathogens is of great importance for the biocontrol of animal and plant parasitic nematodes. In this study, we found that the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans can recognize its fungal pathogen, the nematophagous fungus Purpureocillium lavendulum, through fungal-produced ethanol. Then the nematode elevated the reactive oxygen species production in the gut to inhibit fungal growth in an ethanol dehydrogenase-dependent manner. With this mechanism, novel biocontrol strategies may be developed targeting the ethanol receptor or metabolic pathway of nematodes. Meanwhile, as a volatile organic compound, ethanol should be taken seriously as a vector molecule in the microbial-host interaction in nature.

Abstract
Saccharomyces cerevisiae has a long-standing history of biotechnological applications even before the dawn of modern biotechnology. The field is undergoing accelerated advancement with the recent systems and synthetic biology approaches. In this review, we highlight the recent findings in the field with a focus on omics studies of S. cerevisiae to investigate its stress tolerance in different industries. The latest advancements in S. cerevisiae systems and synthetic biology approaches for the development of genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) and molecular tools such as multiplex Cas9, Cas12a, Cpf1, and Csy4 genome editing tools, modular expression cassette with optimal transcription factors, promoters, and terminator libraries as well as metabolic engineering. Omics data analysis is key to the identification of exploitable native genes/proteins/pathways in S. cerevisiae with the optimization of heterologous pathway implementation and fermentation conditions. Through systems and synthetic biology, various heterologous compound productions that require non-native biosynthetic pathways in a cell factory have been established via different strategies of metabolic engineering integrated with machine learning.

Physiological and transcriptome analyses of Kluyveromyces marxianus reveal adaptive traits in stress response. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2023; 107:1421-1438.

Abstract
Kluyveromyces marxianus is a non-conventional yeast with outstanding physiological characteristics and a high potential for lignocellulosic ethanol production. However, achieving high ethanol productivity requires overcoming several biotechnological challenges due to the cellular inhibition caused by the inhibitors present in the medium. In this work, K. marxianus SLP1 was adapted to increase its tolerance to a mix of inhibitory compounds using the adaptive laboratory evolution strategy to study the adaptation and stress response mechanisms used by this non-Saccharomyces yeast. The fermentative and physiological parameters demonstrated that the adapted K. marxianus P8 had a better response against the synergistic effects of multiple inhibitors because it reduced the lag phase from 12 to 4 h, increasing the biomass by 40% and improving the volumetric ethanol productivity 16-fold than the parental K. marxianus SLP1. To reveal the effect of adaptation process in P8, transcriptome analysis was carried out; the result showed that the basal gene expression in P8 changed, suggesting the biological capability of K. marxianus to activate the adaptative prediction mechanism. Similarly, we carried out physiologic and transcriptome analyses to reveal the mechanisms involved in the stress response triggered by furfural, the most potent inhibitor in K. marxianus. Stress response studies demonstrated that P8 had a better physiologic response than SLP1, since key genes related to furfural transformation (ALD4 and ALD6) and stress response (STL1) were upregulated. Our study demonstrates the rapid adaptability of K. marxianus to stressful environments, making this yeast a promising candidate to produce lignocellulosic ethanol. KEY POINTS: • K. marxianus was adapted to increase its tolerance to a mix of inhibitory compounds • The basal gene expression of K. marxianus changed after the adaptation process • Adapted K. marxianus showed a better physiological response to stress by inhibitors • Transcriptome analyses revealed key genes involved in the stress response.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Industrial bioethanol production may involve a low pH environment caused by inorganic acids, improving the tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to a low pH environment is of industrial importance to increase ethanol yield, control bacterial contamination, and reduce production cost. In our previous study, acid tolerance of a diploid industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain KF-7 was chronically acclimatized by continuous ethanol fermentation under gradually increasing low-pH stress conditions. Two haploid strains B3 and C3 having excellent low pH tolerance were derived through the sporulation of an isolated mutant. Diploid strain BC3 was obtained by mating these two haploids. In this study, B3, C3, BC3, and the original strain KF-7 were subjected to comparison transcriptome analysis to investigate the molecular mechanism of the enhanced phenotype.
Result
The comparison transcriptome analysis results suggested that the upregulated vitamin B1 and B6 biosynthesis contributed to the low pH tolerance. Amino acid metabolism, DNA repairment, and general stress response might also alleviate low pH stress.
Conclusion
Saccharomyces cerevisiae seems to employ complex regulation strategies to tolerate low pH during ethanol production. The findings provide guides for the construction of low pH-tolerant industrial strains that can be used in industrial fermentation processes.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Wickerhamomyces anomalus (W. anomalus) is a kind of non-Saccharomyces yeast that has a variety of unique physiological characteristics and metabolic features and is widely used in many fields, such as food preservation, biomass energy, and aquaculture feed protein production. However, the mechanism of W. anomalus response to ethanol stress is still unclear, which greatly limits its application in the production of ethanol beverages and ethanol fuels. Therefore, we checked the effects of ethanol stress on the morphology, the growth, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and metabolites (DEMs) of W. anomalus.
Results
High concentrations of ethanol (9% ethanol and 12% ethanol) remarkably inhibited the growth of W. anomalus. Energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, fatty acids metabolism, and nucleic acid metabolism were significantly influenced when exposing to 9% ethanol and 12% ethanolstress, which maybe universal for W. anomalus to response to different concentrations of ethanol stressl Furthermore, extracellular addition of aspartate, glutamate, and arginine significantly abated ethanol damage and improved the survival rate of W. anomalus.
Conclusions
The results obtained in this study provide insights into the mechanisms involved in W. anomalus response to ethanol stress. Therefore, new strategies can be realized to improve the ethanol tolerance of W. anomalus through metabolic engineering.

Abstract
Various inhibitors are produced during the hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass that can interfere with the growth of yeast cells and the production of bioethanol. Formic acid is a common weak acid inhibitor present in lignocellulosic hydrolysate that has toxic effects on yeast cells. However, the mechanism of the response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to formic acid is not fully understood. In this study, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used to investigate the effects of formic acid treatment on cell metabolites of S. cerevisiae. Treatment with different concentrations of formic acid significantly inhibited the growth of yeast cells, reduced the yield of ethanol, prolonged the cell fermentation cycle, and increased the content of malondialdehyde. Principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis showed that 55 metabolites were significantly altered in S. cerevisiae after formic acid treatment. The metabolic relevance of these compounds in the response of S. cerevisiae to formic acid stress was investigated. Formic acid can cause oxidative stress, inhibit protein synthesis, and damage DNA in S. cerevisiae, and these are possible reasons for the inhibition of S. cerevisiae cell growth. In addition, the levels of several aromatic amino acids identified in the cells of formic acid-treated yeast were increased; the biosynthesis of nucleotides was slowed, and energy consumption was reduced. These mechanisms may help to improve the tolerance of yeast cells to formic acid. The results described herein highlight our current understanding of the molecular mechanism of the response of S. cerevisiae to formic acid. The study will provide a theoretical basis for research on the tolerance mechanisms of S. cerevisiae.

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 106:2029-2042. [PMID: 35194654 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-022-11840-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Revised: 02/10/2022] [Accepted: 02/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Phosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinases is the most common and important regulatory pathway in the adaptive physiological responses to the changes in nutrition and environment of yeast. This study focused on the functions of Elm1, Sak1, and Tos3, which are three upstream protein kinases of Snf1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in response to high-glucose and heat shock stresses. Results suggested that changing the gene dosage of ELM1/SAK1/TOS3 had different effects under high-glucose and heat shock stresses. ELM1 and SAK1 overexpressions could enhance the tolerance of S. cerevisiae to high-glucose and heat shock stresses, respectively. Nevertheless, the overexpression of TOS3 decreased the tolerance to high-glucose stress, and a native level of Tos3 was important for the normal adaptation to heat shock condition. The overexpression of ELM1 increased the accumulation of trehalose and ergosterol and altered the composition of fatty acids with altered gene expressions involved in the metabolism of three metabolites. Enhanced resistance to heat shock stress in SAK1 overexpression might be related to the enhanced accumulation of trehalose and ergosterol and upregulated transcription of genes related to the metabolism of trehalose and ergosterol. Furthermore, Elm1 might regulate the metabolism of trehalose, ergosterol, and fatty acids in a Snf1-independent form under high-glucose stress. A Snf1-independent pathway might be involved in the regulation of trehalose metabolism by Sak1 under heat shock condition. However, Sak1 and Snf1 may have an indirect relationship in the regulation of ergosterol synthesis. KEY POINTS: • Altering the gene dosage of ELM1/SAK1/TOS3 had different effects on stress responses • Elm1 regulated high-glucose response in a Snf1-independent manner • Sak1 and Snf1 had an indirect relationship in the regulation of heat shock response.

Abstract
A combined proteomic and metabonomic approach was used to investigate the metabolism of Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis subjected to glucose stress treatment. A proteomic method was used to determine 1,427 altered proteins, including 278 proteins with increased expression and 255 proteins with decreased expression. A metabonomic approach was adopted to identify 98 altered metabolites, including 62 metabolites with increased expression and 26 metabolites with decreased expression. The integrated analysis indicated that the RNA and DNA mismatch repair process and energy metabolism were enhanced in response to high-glucose stress in L. lactis. Lactococcus lactis responded to glucose stress by up-regulating oxidoreductase activity, which acted on glycosyl bonds, hydrolase activity, and organic acid transmembrane transporter activity. This led to an improvement in the metabolic flux from glucose to pyruvate, lactate, acetate, and maltose. Down-regulation of amino acid transmembrane transporter, aminoacyl-transfer RNA ligase, hydroxymethyl-, formyl-, and related transferase activities resulted in a decrease in the nitrogen metabolism-associated metabolic pathway, which might be related to inhibition of the production of biogenic amines. Overall, we highlight the response of metabolism to glucose stress and provide potential possibilities for the reduced formation of biogenic amines in improved level of sugar in the dairy fermentation industry. Moreover, according to the demand for industrial production, sugar concentration in fermented foods should be higher, or lower, than a set value that is dependent on bacterial strain and biogenic amine yield.

Delta-Integration of Single Gene Shapes the Whole Metabolomic Short-Term Response to Ethanol of Recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains. Metabolites 2020; 10:metabo10040140.

Abstract
In yeast engineering, metabolic burden is often linked to the reprogramming of resources from regular cellular activities to guarantee recombinant protein(s) production. Therefore, growth parameters can be significantly influenced. Two recombinant strains, previously developed by the multiple δ-integration of a glucoamylase in the industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae 27P, did not display any detectable metabolic burden. In this study, a Fourier Transform InfraRed Spectroscopy (FTIR)-based assay was employed to investigate the effect of δ-integration on yeast strains’ tolerance to the increasing ethanol levels typical of the starch-to-ethanol industry. FTIR fingerprint, indeed, offers a holistic view of the metabolome and is a well-established method to assess the stress response of microorganisms. Cell viability and metabolomic fingerprints have been considered as parameters to detecting any physiological and/or metabolomic perturbations. Quite surprisingly, the three strains did not show any difference in cell viability but metabolomic profiles were significantly altered and different when the strains were incubated both with and without ethanol. A LC/MS untargeted workflow was applied to assess the metabolites and pathways mostly involved in these strain-specific ethanol responses, further confirming the FTIR fingerprinting of the parental and recombinant strains. These results indicated that the multiple δ-integration prompted huge metabolomic changes in response to short-term ethanol exposure, calling for deeper metabolomic and genomic insights to understand how and, to what extent, genetic engineering could affect the yeast metabolome.
