Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 260:129506. [PMID: 38244735 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129506] [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: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 01/22/2024]
Abstract
Alginate is mainly a linear polysaccharide composed of randomly arranged β-D-mannuronic acid and α-L-guluronic acid linked by α, β-(1,4)-glycosidic bonds. Alginate lyases degrade alginate mainly adopting a β-elimination mechanism, breaking the glycosidic bonds between the monomers and forming a double bond between the C4 and C5 sugar rings to produce alginate oligosaccharides consisting of 2-25 monomers, which have various physiological functions. Thus, it can be used for the continuous industrial production of alginate oligosaccharides with a specific degree of polymerization, in accordance with the requirements of green exploitation of marine resources. With the development of structural analysis, the quantity of characterized alginate lyase structures is progressively growing, leading to a concomitant improvement in understanding the catalytic mechanism. Additionally, the use of molecular modification methods including rational design, truncated expression of non-catalytic domains, and recombination of conserved domains can improve the catalytic properties of the original enzyme, enabling researchers to screen out the enzyme with the expected excellent performance with high success rate and less workload. This review presents the latest findings on the catalytic mechanism of alginate lyases and outlines the methods for molecular modifications. Moreover, it explores the connection between the degree of polymerization and the physiological functions of alginate oligosaccharides, providing a reference for enzymatic preparation development and utilization.

Abstract
Alginate, an acidic polysaccharide, is formed by β-d-mannuronate (M) and α-l-guluronate (G). As a type of polysaccharide lyase, alginate lyase can efficiently degrade alginate into alginate oligosaccharides, having potential applications in the food, medicine, and agriculture fields. However, the application of alginate lyase has been limited due to its low catalytic efficiency and poor temperature stability. In recent years, various structural features of alginate lyase have been determined, resulting in modification strategies that can increase the applicability of alginate lyase, making it important to summarize and discuss the current evidence. In this review, we summarized the structural features and catalytic mechanisms of alginate lyase. Molecular modification strategies, such as rational design, directed evolution, conserved domain recombination, and non-catalytic domain truncation, are also described in detail. Lastly, the application of alginate lyase is discussed. This comprehensive summary can inform future applications of alginate lyases.

Abstract
Alginate, the most abundant polysaccharides of brown algae, consists of various proportions of uronic acid epimers α-L-guluronic acid (G) and β-D-mannuronic acid (M). Alginate oligosaccharides (AOs), the degradation products of alginates, exhibit excellent bioactivities and a great potential for broad applications in pharmaceutical fields. Alginate lyases can degrade alginate to functional AOs with unsaturated bonds or monosaccharides, which can facilitate the biorefinery of brown algae. On account of the increasing applications of AOs and biorefinery of brown algae, there is a scientific need to explore the important aspects of alginate lyase, such as catalytic mechanism, structure, and property. This review covers fundamental aspects and recent developments in basic information, structural characteristics, the structure-substrate specificity or catalytic efficiency relationship, property, molecular modification, and applications. To meet the needs of biorefinery systems of a broad array of biochemical products, alginate lyases with special properties, such as salt-activated, wide pH adaptation range, and cold adaptation are outlined. Withal, various challenges in alginate lyase research are traced out, and future directions, specifically on the molecular biology part of alginate lyases, are delineated to further widen the horizon of these exceptional alginate lyases.

Abstract
Brown macroalgae have attracted great attention as an alternative feedstock for biorefining. Although direct conversion of ethanol from alginates (major components of brown macroalgae cell walls) is not amenable for industrial production, significant progress has been made not only on enzymes involved in alginate degradation, but also on metabolic pathways for biorefining at the laboratory level. In this article, we summarise recent advances on four aspects: alginate, alginate lyases, different alginate-degrading systems, and application of alginate lyases and associated pathways. This knowledge will likely inspire sustainable solutions for further application of both alginate lyases and their associated pathways.

Abstract
Alginate, a kind of linear acidic polysaccharide, consists of α-L-guluronate (G) and β-D-mannuronate (M). Both alginate and its degradation products (alginate oligosaccharides) possess abundant biological activities such as antioxidant activity, antitumor activity, and antimicrobial activity. Therefore, alginate and alginate oligosaccharides have great value in food, pharmaceutical, and agricultural fields. Alginate lyase can degrade alginate into alginate oligosaccharides via the β-elimination reaction. It plays an important role in marine carbon recycling and the deep utilization of brown algae. Elucidating the structural features of alginate lyase can improve our knowledge of its catalytic mechanisms. With the development of structural analysis techniques, increasing numbers of alginate lyases have been characterized at the structural level. Hence, it is essential and helpful to summarize and discuss the up-to-date findings. In this review, we have summarized progress on the structural features and the catalytic mechanisms of alginate lyases. Furthermore, the molecular modification strategies and the applications of alginate lyases have also been discussed. This comprehensive information should be helpful to expand the applications of alginate lyases.

Characterization of a New Biofunctional, Exolytic Alginate Lyase from Tamlana sp. s12 with High Catalytic Activity and Cold-Adapted Features. Mar Drugs 2021; 19:md19040191.

Abstract
Alginate, a major acidic polysaccharide in brown algae, has attracted great attention as a promising carbon source for biorefinery systems. Alginate lyases, especially exo-type alginate lyase, play a critical role in the biorefinery process. Although a large number of alginate lyases have been characterized, few can efficiently degrade alginate comprised of mannuronate (M) and guluronate (G) at low temperatures by means of an exolytic mode. In this study, the gene of a new exo-alginate lyase-Alys1-with high activity (1350 U/mg) was cloned from a marine strain, Tamlana sp. s12. When sodium alginate was used as a substrate, the recombinant enzyme showed optimal activity at 35 °C and pH 7.0-8.0. Noticeably, recombinant Alys1 was unstable at temperatures above 30 °C and had a low melting temperature of 56.0 °C. SDS and EDTA significantly inhibit its activity. These data indicate that Alys1 is a cold-adapted enzyme. Moreover, the enzyme can depolymerize alginates polyM and polyG, and produce a monosaccharide as the minimal alginate oligosaccharide. Primary substrate preference tests and identification of the final oligosaccharide products demonstrated that Alys1 is a bifunctional alginate lyase and prefers M to G. These properties make Alys1 a valuable candidate in both basic research and industrial applications.

Abstract
The semisynthetic polysaccharide cellouronate is a β-1,4-linked polyglucuronic acid prepared from regenerated cellulose by chemical oxidation. Here, we isolated a novel enzyme, MyAly, as a cellouronate lyase from a scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis. Its optimum temperature, pH, and NaCl concentration for cellouronate degradation were determined to be 30 °C, 6.9, and 200-500 mM, respectively. MyAly endolytically degraded cellouronate into unsaturated di-, tri-, and tetrasaccharides with kcat of 31.1 s-1. MyAly also showed an alginate-degradation activity with a kcat value of 0.58 s-1. However, there was no significant difference in Km values between cellouronate and alginate. MyAly consisted of 280 amino acids and shared 36.5-44.1 % identity with known marine gastropod alginate lyases belonging to the polysaccharide lyase family 14. This is the first study to identify and characterize a cellouronate-degrading lyase from a marine organism, providing a better understanding of the biodegradability of the industrially important polysaccharide, cellouronate, in marine environments.

Abstract
3-Hydroxyarginine (3-OH-Arg) is an important intermediate for the synthesis of viomycin, an important antibiotic for the clinical treatment of tuberculosis. An efficient strategy for 3-OH-Arg production based on protein engineering and recombinant whole-cell biocatalysis was demonstrated for the first time. To avoid challenging product separation due to the generation of α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) in the system, the molar ratio of the substrates L-Arg and L-Glu was optimized to ensure the efficient production of 3-OH-Arg as well as the complete consumption of α-KG. Through the establishment of a fed-batch process, 3-OH-Arg and succinic acid (SA) production reached to 9.9 g/L and 5.98 g/L after 36 h of reaction under the optimized conditions. This is the highest biosynthetic yield of 3-OH-Arg achieved to date, potentially offering a promising strategy for commercial production of hydroxylated amino acids.

Abstract
2'-Fucosyllactose (2-FL) is a fucose-containing oligosaccharide that is found in humans and is believed to have potential nutraceutical and pharmaceutical uses. Here, a promising in vitro multienzyme cascade catalysis system (MECCS) was designed to convert L-fucose and lactose to 2-FL. The cascade comprises L-fucokinase/GDP-L-fucose phosphorylase (FKP), α-1,2-fucosyltransferase (FucT), and pyruvate kinase (PK). This MECCS was able to efficiently regenerate ATP or GTP with 5.67-fold improvement of GDP-L-fucose. To address the rate-limiting step in the MECCS, various FucT orthologues were screened, and HpFucT from Helicobacter pylori showed the highest catalytic efficiency, with a (kcat/KM) of 39.28 min-1 mM-1, while TeFucT from Thermosynechococcus elongatus showed the highest thermostability, with a melting temperature (Tm) of 48 °C. The dissociation constant (KD) of TeFucT (1.34 ± 0.41 μM) was 15-fold lower than that of HpFucT (20.24 ± 1.81 μM), suggesting that TeFucT had much higher affinity for GDP. Structural analysis of HpFucT indicated that Arg169 is part of a unique substrate-binding site that interacts with two oxygen atoms from the phosphate group of GDP-L-fucose. The 2-FL productivities of the MECCS in fed-batch reached 0.67 and 0.73 g/L/h with TeFucT and HpFucT, respectively. This research provides an alternative pathway for efficient production of 2-FL.

Biochemical characteristics and molecular mechanism of an exo-type alginate lyase VxAly7D and its use for the preparation of unsaturated monosaccharides. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS 2020; 13:99. [PMID: 32514311 PMCID: PMC7268478 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-020-01738-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2020] [Accepted: 05/22/2020] [Indexed: 05/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND As the most abundant polysaccharide in brown algae, alginate has become a promising economical material for bioethanol production. Recently, exo-type alginate lyases have received extensive attention because the unsaturated monosaccharides produced by their degradation of alginate can be easily converted into 4-deoxy-l-erythro-5-hexoseulose uronate (DEH), a promising material for bioethanol production and biorefinery systems. RESULTS In this study, we cloned and characterized an exo-type polysaccharide lyase family 7 (PL7) alginate lyase VxAly7D from the marine bacterium Vibrio xiamenensis QY104. Recombinant VxAly7D was most active at 30 °C and exhibited 21%, 46% and 90% of its highest activity at 0, 10 and 20 °C, respectively. Compared with other exo-type alginate lyases, recombinant VxAly7D was shown to be a bifunctional alginate lyase with higher specific activity towards sodium alginate, polyG and polyM (462.4 ± 0.64, 357.37 ± 0.53 and 441.94 ± 2.46 U/mg, respectively). A total of 13 μg recombinant VxAly7D could convert 3 mg sodium alginate to unsaturated monosaccharides in 1 min with a yield of 37.6%, and the yield reached 95% in 1 h. In addition, the three-dimensional structure of VxAly7D was modelled using the crystal structure of AlyA5 from Zobellia galactanivorans DsijT as the template. The action mode and the end products of the W295A mutant revealed that Trp295 is a key amino acid residue responsible for the exolytic action mode of VxAly7D. CONCLUSION Overall, our results show that VxAly7D is a PL7 exo-type alginate lyase with high activity and a high conversion rate at low/moderate temperatures, which provides a useful enzymatic tool for the development of biofuel production from brown algae and enriches the understanding of the structure and functional relationships of polysaccharide lyases.

Abstract
Marine macroalgae have gained considerable attention as renewable biomass sources. Ulvan is a water-soluble anionic polysaccharide, and its depolymerization into fermentable monosaccharides has great potential for the production of bioethanol or high-value food additives. Ulvan lyase from Alteromonas sp. (AsPL) utilizes a β-elimination mechanism to cleave the glycosidic bond between rhamnose 3-sulfate and glucuronic acid, forming an unsaturated uronic acid at the non-reducing end. AsPL was active in the temperature range of 30-50 °C and pH values ranging from 7.5 to 9.5. Furthermore, AsPL was found to be halophilic, showing high activity and stability in the presence of up to 2.5 M NaCl. The apparent Km and kcat values of AsPL are 3.19 ± 0.37 mg mL-1 and 4.19 ± 0.21 s-1, respectively. Crystal structure analysis revealed that AsPL adopts a β-propeller fold with four anti-parallel β-strands in each of the seven propeller blades. The acid residues at the protein surface and two Ca2+ coordination sites contribute to its salt tolerance. The research on ulvan lyase has potential commercial value in the utilization of algal resources for biofuel production to relieve the environmental burden of petrochemicals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A novel D-allulose 3-epimerase from Staphylococcus aureus (SaDAE) has been screened as a D-allulose 3-epimerase family enzyme based on its high specificity for D-allulose. It usually converts both D-fructose and D-tagatose to respectively D-allulose and D-sorbose. We targeted potential biocatalysts for the large-scale industrial production of rare sugars. RESULTS SaDAE showed a high activity on D-allulose with an affinity of 41.5 mM and catalytic efficiency of 1.1 s-1 mM-1. Four residues, Glu146, Asp179, Gln205, and Glu240, constitute the catalytic tetrad of SaDAE. Glu146 and Glu240 formed unique interactions with substrates based on the structural model analysis. The redesigned SaDAE_V105A showed an improvement of relative activity toward D-fructose of 68%. The conversion rate of SaDAE_V105A reached 38.9% after 6 h. The triple mutant S191D/M193E/S213C showed higher thermostability than the wild-type enzyme, exhibiting a 50% loss of activity after incubation for 60 min at 74.2 °C compared with 67 °C for the wild type. CONCLUSIONS We redesigned SaDAE for thermostability and biocatalytic production of D-allulose. The research will aid the development of industrial biocatalysts for D-allulose.

RSC Adv 2019; 9:2919-2927.

Abstract
Sinorhizobium sp. d-tagatose 3-epimerase (sDTE) catalyzes the conversion of d-tagatose to d-sorbose. It also recognizes d-fructose as a substrate for d-allulose production. The optimal temperature and pH of the purified sDTE was 50 °C and 8.0, respectively. Based on the sDTE homologous model, Glu154, Asp187, Gln213, and Glu248, form a hydrogen bond network with the active-site Mn2+ and constitute the catalytic tetrad. The amino acid residues around O-1, -2, and -3 atoms of the substrates (d-tagatose/d-fructose) are strictly conserved and thus likely regulate the catalytic reaction. However, the residues at O-4, -5, and -6, being responsible for the substrate-binding, are different. In particular, Arg65 and Met9 were found to form a unique interaction with O-4 of d-fructose and d-tagatose. The whole cells with recombinant sDTE showed a higher bioconversion rate of 42.5% in a fed-batch bioconversion using d-fructose as a substrate, corresponding to a production of 476 g L−1d-allulose. These results suggest that sDTE is a potential industrial biocatalyst for the production of d-allulose in fed-batch mode. Sinorhizobium sp. d-tagatose 3-epimerase (sDTE) catalyzes the conversion of d-tagatose to d-sorbose.![]()

Abstract
Background Biosynthesis of steroidal drugs is of great benefit in pharmaceutical manufacturing as the process involves efficient enzymatic catalysis at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure compared to chemical synthesis. 3-ketosteroid-∆1-dehydrogenase from Arthrobacter simplex (KsdD3) catalyzes 1,2-desaturation of steroidal substrates with FAD as a cofactor. Results Recombinant KsdD3 exhibited organic solvent tolerance. W117, F296, W299, et al., which were located in substrate-binding cavity, were predicted to form hydrophobic interaction with the substrate. Structure-based site-directed saturation mutagenesis of KsdD3 was performed with W299 mutants, which resulted in improved catalytic activities toward various steroidal substrates. W299A showed the highest increase in catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) compared with the wild-type enzyme. Homology modelling revealed that the mutants enlarged the active site cavity and relieved the steric interference facilitating recognition of C17 hydroxyl/carbonyl steroidal substrates. Steered molecular dynamics simulations revealed that W299A/G decreased the potential energy barrier of association of substrates and dissociation of the corresponding products. The biotransformation of AD with enzymatic catalysis and resting cells harbouring KsdD3 WT/mutants revealed that W299A catalyzed the maximum ADD yields of 71 and 95% by enzymatic catalysis and resting cell conversion respectively, compared with the wild type (38 and 75%, respectively). Conclusions The successful rational design of functional KsdD3 greatly advanced our understanding of KsdD family enzymes. Structure-based site-directed saturation mutagenesis and biochemical data were used to design KsdD3 mutants with a higher catalytic activity and broader selectivity. ![]() Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (10.1186/s12934-018-0981-0) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Abstract
Alginate is a linear polysaccharide produced mainly by brown algae in marine environments. Alginate consists of a linear block copolymer made up of two monomeric units, β-d-mannuronate (M) and its C-5 epimer α-l-guluronate (G). Alginate lyases are polysaccharide lyases (PL) that degrade alginate via a β-elimination reaction. These enzymes play an important role in marine carbon recycling and also have widespread industrial applications. So far, more than 1,774 alginate lyase sequences have been identified and are distributed into 7 PL families. In this review, the folds, conformational changes during catalysis, and catalytic mechanisms of alginate lyases are described. Thus far, structures for 15 alginate lyases have been solved and are divided into 3 fold classes: the β-jelly roll class (PL7, -14, and -18), the (α/α)n toroid class (PL5, -15, and -17), and the β-helix fold (PL6). These enzymes adopt two different mechanisms for catalysis, and three kinds of conformational changes occur during this process. Moreover, common features in the structures, conformational changes, and catalytic mechanisms are summarized, providing a comprehensive understanding on alginate lyases.

Abstract
Alginate, the most abundant carbohydrate presents in brown macroalgae, has recently gained increasing attention as an alternative biomass for the production of biofuel. Oligoalginate lyases catalyze the degradation of alginate oligomers into monomers, a prerequisite for bioethanol production. In this study, two new oligoalginate lyase genes, oalC6 and oalC17, were cloned from Cellulophaga sp. SY116, and expressed them in Escherichia coli. The deduced oligoalginate lyases, OalC6 and OalC17, belonged to the polysaccharide lyase (PL) family 6 and 17, respectively. Both showed less than 50% amino acid identity with all of the characterized oligoalginate lyases. Moreover, OalC6 and OalC17 could degrade both alginate polymers and oligomers into monomers in an exolytic mode. Substrate specificity studies demonstrated that OalC6 preferred α-L-guluronate (polyG) blocks, while OalC17 preferred poly β-D-mannuronate (polyM) blocks. The combination of OalC6 and OalC17 showed synergistic degradation ability toward both alginate polymers and oligomers. Finally, an efficient process for the production of alginate monomers was established by combining the new-isolated exotype alginate lyases (i.e., OalC6 and OalC17) and the endotype alginate lyase AlySY08. Overall, our work provides new insights for the development of novel biotechnologies for biofuel production from seaweed.
