Abstract
The biosynthetic process of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) by specific bacterial strain, whose growth directly affects the synthesis efficiency, has attracted great attentions. We previously reported that Bacillus paralicheniformis SR14, a SeNPs-producing bacteria, could improve intestinal antioxidative function in vitro. To further analyze the biological characteristics of SR14, whole genome sequencing was used to reveal the genetic characteristics in selenite reduction and sugar utilization. The results reviewed that the genome size of SR14 was 4,448,062 bp, with a GC content of 45.95%. A total of 4300 genes into 49 biological pathways was annotated to the KEGG database. EC: 1.1.1.49 (glucose-6-phosphate 1-dehydrogenase) and EC: 5.3.1.9 (glucose-6-phosphate isomerase), were found to play a potential role in glucose degradation and EC:2.7.1.4 (fructokinase) might be involved in the fructose metabolism. Growth profile and selenite-reducing ability of SR14 under different sugar supplements were determined and the results reviewed that glucose had a better promoting effect on the reduction of selenite and growth of bacteria than fructose, sucrose, and maltose. Moreover, RT-qPCR experiment proved that glucose supplement remarkably promoted the expressions of thioredoxin, fumarate reductase, and the glutathione peroxidase in SR14. Analysis of mRNA expression showed levels of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and fructokinase significantly upregulated under the supplement of glucose. Overall, our data demonstrated the genomic characteristics of SR14 and preliminarily determined that glucose supplement was most beneficial for strain growth and SeNPs synthesis.

Abstract
Cytochrome CYP102A1 (P450 BM3) of Priestia megaterium (bas. Bacillus megaterium) has several unique functional features and thus provides an ideal object for directed evolution and other synthetic applications. Previously, the CYP102A1-LG23 mutant with 14 mutations in the heme part was obtained that hydroxylates several androstanes at C7β with the formation of products with the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activities. In this study, synthetic cyp102A1-LG23 gene encoding the P450 BM3 mutant was expressed as a component of either monocistronic operon or bicistronic operon containing the gdh (glucose dehydrogenase, GDH) or zwf2 (glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, G6PD) gene in Mycolicibacterium smegmatis BD cells. The recombinant bacteria were able hydroxylate androst-4-ene-3,17-dione (AD) into 7β-OH-AD. Their biocatalytic activity was increased twice by increasing the solubility of CYP102A1-LG23 protein in the cells and supplementing the cells with the additional cofactor regeneration system by introducing GDH and G6PD. The maximum 7β-OH-AD yield (37.68 mol%) was achieved by co-expression of cyp102A1-LG23 and gdh genes in M. smegmatis. These results demonstrate the possibility of using synthetic genes to obtain recombinant enzymes and expand our understanding of the processes involved in steroid hydroxylation by bacterial cytochromes. The data obtained can be used to develop new approaches for microbiological production of 7β-hydroxylated steroids in genetically modified Mycolicibacterium species.

BIORESOUR BIOPROCESS 2022; 9:116. [PMID: 38647765 PMCID: PMC10992188 DOI: 10.1186/s40643-022-00602-7] [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: 07/22/2022] [Accepted: 10/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
The main male hormone, testosterone is obtained from cheap and readily available phytosterol using the strains of Mycolicibacterium neoaurum VKM Ac-1815D, or Ac-1816D. During the first "oxidative" stage, phytosterol (5-10 g/L) was aerobically converted by Ac-1815D, or Ac-1816D to form 17-ketoandrostanes: androstenedione, or androstadienedione, respectively. At the same bioreactor, the 17-ketoandrostanes were further transformed to testosterone due to the presence of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in the strains ("reductive" mode). The conditions favorable for "oxidative" and "reductive" stages have been revealed to increase the final testosterone yield. Glucose supplement and microaerophilic conditions during the "reductive" mode ensured increased testosterone production by mycolicibacteria cells. Both strains effectively produced testosterone from phytosterol, but highest ever reported testosterone yield was achieved using M. neoaurum VKM Ac-1815D: 4.59 g/l testosterone was reached from 10 g/l phytosterol thus corresponding to the molar yield of over 66%. The results contribute to the knowledge on phytosterol bioconversion by mycolicibacteria, and are of significance for one-pot testosterone bioproduction from phytosterol bypassing the intermediate isolation of the 17-ketoandrostanes.

Abstract
Background 7β-hydroxylated steroids (7β-OHSt) possess significant activities in anti-inflammatory and neuroprotection, and some of them have been widely used in clinics. However, the production of 7β-OHSt is still a challenge due to the lack of cheap 7β-hydroxy precursor and the difficulty in regio- and stereo-selectively hydroxylation at the inert C7 site of steroids in industry. The conversion of phytosterols by Mycolicibacterium species to the commercial precursor, androst-4-ene-3,17-dione (AD), is one of the basic ways to produce different steroids. This study presents a way to produce a basic 7β-hydroxy precursor, 7β-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione (7β-OH-AD) in Mycolicibacterium, for 7β-OHSt synthesis. Results A mutant of P450-BM3, mP450-BM3, was mutated and engineered into an AD producing strain for the efficient production of 7β-OH-AD. The enzyme activity of mP450-BM3 was then increased by 1.38 times through protein engineering and the yield of 7β-OH-AD was increased from 34.24 mg L− 1 to 66.25 mg L− 1. To further enhance the performance of 7β-OH-AD producing strain, the regeneration of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) for the activity of mP450-BM3-0 was optimized by introducing an NAD kinase (NADK) and a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH). Finally, the engineered strain could produce 164.52 mg L− 1 7β-OH-AD in the cofactor recycling and regeneration system. Conclusions This was the first report on the one-pot biosynthesis of 7β-OH-AD from the conversion of cheap phytosterols by an engineered microorganism, and the yield was significantly increased through the mutation of mP450-BM3 combined with overexpression of NADK and G6PDH. The present strategy may be developed as a basic industrial pathway for the commercial production of high value products from cheap raw materials.
