Abstract
Dye-decolorizing peroxidases are heme peroxidases with a broad range of substrate specificity. Their physiological function is still largely unknown, but a role in the depolymerization of plant cell wall polymers has been widely proposed. Here, a new expression system for bacterial dye-decolorizing peroxidases as well as the activity with previously unexplored plant molecules are reported. The dye-decolorizing peroxidase from Amycolatopsis 75iv2 (DyP2) was heterologously produced in the Gram-positive bacterium Streptomyces lividans TK24 in both intracellular and extracellular forms without external heme supplementation. The enzyme was tested on a series of O-glycosides, which are plant secondary metabolites with a phenyl glycosidic linkage. O-glycosides are of great interest, both for studying the compounds themselves and as potential models for studying specific lignin-carbohydrate complexes. The primary DyP reaction products of salicin, arbutin, fraxin, naringin, rutin, and gossypin were oxidatively coupled oligomers. A cleavage of the glycone moiety upon radical polymerization was observed when using arbutin, fraxin, rutin, and gossypin as substrates. The amount of released glucose from arbutin and fraxin reached 23% and 3% of the total substrate, respectively. The proposed mechanism suggests a destabilization of the ether linkage due to the localization of the radical in the para position. In addition, DyP2 was tested on complex lignocellulosic materials such as wheat straw, spruce, willow, and purified water-soluble lignin fractions, but no remarkable changes in the carbohydrate profile were observed, despite obvious oxidative activity. The exact action of DyP2 on such lignin-carbohydrate complexes therefore remains elusive. IMPORTANCE Peroxidases require correct incorporation of the heme cofactor for activity. Heterologous overproduction of peroxidases often results in an inactive enzyme due to insufficient heme synthesis by the host organism. Therefore, peroxidases are incubated with excess heme during or after purification to reconstitute activity. S. lividans as a production host can produce fully active peroxidases both intracellularly and extracellularly without the need for heme supplementation. This reduces the number of downstream processing steps and is beneficial for more sustainable production of industrially relevant enzymes. Moreover, this research has extended the scope of dye-decolorizing peroxidase applications by studying naturally relevant plant secondary metabolites and analyzing the formed products. A previously overlooked artifact of radical polymerization leading to the release of the glycosyl moiety was revealed, shedding light on the mechanism of DyP peroxidases. The key aspect is the continuous addition, rather than the more common approach of a single addition, of the cosubstrate, hydrogen peroxide. This continuous addition allows the peroxidase to complete a high number of turnovers without self-oxidation.

Abstract
Although dye-decolourising peroxidases (DyPs) are well-known for lignin degradation, a comprehensive understanding of their mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, studying the mechanism of lignin degradation by DyPs is necessary for industrial applications and enzyme engineering. In this study, a dye-decolourising peroxidase (CsDyP) gene from C. serinivorans was heterologously expressed and studied for its lignin degradation potential. Molecular docking analysis predicted the binding of 2, 2-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), veratryl alcohol (VA), 2, 6-dimethylphenol (2, 6- DMP), guaiacol (GUA), and lignin to the substrate-binding pocket of CsDyP. Evaluation of the enzymatic properties showed that CsDyP requires pH 4.0 and 30 °C for optimal activity and has a high affinity for ABTS. In addition, CsDyP is stable over a wide range of temperatures and pH and can tolerate 5.0 mM organic solvents. Low NaCl concentrations promoted CsDyP activity. Further, CsDyP significantly reduced the chemical oxygen demand decolourised alkali lignin (AL) and milled wood lignin (MWL). CsDyP targets the β-O-4, CO, and CC bonds linking lignin's G, S, and H units to depolymerize and produce aromatic compounds. Overall, this study delivers valuable insights into the lignin degradation mechanism of CsDyP, which can benefit its industrial applications and lignin valorization.

Abstract
Dye-decolorizing Peroxidases (DyPs) are heme-containing enzymes in fungi and bacteria that catalyze the reduction of hydrogen peroxide to water with concomitant oxidation of various substrates, including anthraquinone dyes, lignin-related phenolic and non-phenolic compounds, and metal ions. Investigation of DyPs has shed new light on peroxidases, one of the most extensively studied families of oxidoreductases; still, details of their microbial physiological role and catalytic mechanisms remain to be fully disclosed. They display a distinctive ferredoxin-like fold encompassing anti-parallel β-sheets and α-helices, and long conserved loops surround the heme pocket with a role in catalysis and stability. A tunnel routes H2O2 to the heme pocket, whereas binding sites for the reducing substrates are in cavities near the heme or close to distal aromatic residues at the surface. Variations in reactions, the role of catalytic residues, and mechanisms were observed among different classes of DyP. They were hypothetically related to the presence or absence of distal H2O molecules in the heme pocket. The engineering of DyPs for improved properties directed their biotechnological applications, primarily centered on treating textile effluents and degradation of other hazardous pollutants, to fields such as biosensors and valorization of lignin, the most abundant renewable aromatic polymer. In this review, we track recent research contributions that furthered our understanding of the activity, stability, and structural properties of DyPs and their biotechnological applications. Overall, the study of DyP-type peroxidases has significant implications for environmental sustainability and the development of new bio-based products and materials with improved end-of-life options via biodegradation and chemical recyclability, fostering the transition to a sustainable bio-based industry in the circular economy realm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rusts and powdery mildews are severe fungal diseases of major crops worldwide, including cereals and legumes. They can be managed by chemical fungicide treatments, with negative consequences as environmental pollution and risk for human and animal health. Bioactive natural products could be the safest alternative for pest control. The family of anthraquinones, as well as analogue compounds containing an anthraquinone moiety or some modified anthraquinone rings, has been reported to exhibit certain antibiotic activity. Thus, the potential antifungal activity of some anthraquinones isolated from Ascochyta lentis, was assayed in this study for their effectiveness to reduce rust and powdery mildew diseases on pea and oat. Their effect on fungal development was macro- and microscopically assessed on inoculated leaves, and compared to the control achieved by the chemical fungicide (Tetraconazol 12.5% and Azoxystrobin 25%). In addition, the most promising compound was also tested at different concentrations in inoculated whole plants in order to evaluate its preventive and curative potential against fungal infection. RESULTS All metabolites studied strongly reduced the development of rust and powdery mildews in both pea and oat, being pachybasin and lentiquinone C the most effective ones in hampering fungal spore germination and appressoria formation. Some of them also affected post-penetration events reducing colony size and number of haustoria per colony. Results were confirmed for pachybasin in whole plants assays, showing an efficacy similar to the commercial fungicide to control fungal diseases, both in preventive and curative applications. CONCLUSIONS Some fungal anthraquinones and close metabolites, especially pachybasin, could be very promising molecules with effective potential as antifungal agents against both rust and powdery mildew of both pea and oat. Some structure activity-relationships feature have also been evaluated. © 2022 The Authors. Pest Management Science published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
AIMS Actinobacteria are known to produce extracellular enzymes including DyPs. We set out to identify and characterize novel peroxidases from Streptomyces chartreusis NRRL 3882, because S. chartreusis belongs to the small group of actinobacteria with three different DyPs. METHODS AND RESULTS The genome of the actinomycete Streptomyces chartreusis NRRL 3882 was mined for novel DyP-type peroxidases. Three genes encoding for DyP-type peroxidases were cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Subsequent characterization of the recombinant proteins included examination of operating conditions such as pH, temperature, and H2 O2 concentrations, as well as substrate spectrum. Despite their high sequence similarity, the enzymes named SCDYP1-SCDYP3 presented distinct preferences regarding their operating conditions. They showed great divergence in H2 O2 tolerance and stability, with SCDYP2 being most active at concentrations above 50 mmol l-1 . Moreover, SCDYP1 and SCDYP3 preferred acidic pH (typical for DyP-type peroxidases) whereas SCDYP2 was most active at pH 8. CONCLUSIONS Regarding the function of DyPs in nature, these results suggest that availability of different DyP variants with complementary activity profiles in one organism might convey evolutionary benefits. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF STUDY DyP-type peroxidases are able to degrade xenobiotic compounds and thus can be applied in biocatalysis and bioremediation. However, the native function of DyPs and the benefits for their producers largely remain to be elucidated.

Abstract
Abstract Fungal dye-decolorizing peroxidases (DyPs) have found applications in the treatment of dye-contaminated industrial wastes or to improve biomass digestibility. Their roles in fungal biology are uncertain, although it has been repeatedly suggested that they could participate in lignin degradation and/or modification. Using a comprehensive set of 162 fully sequenced fungal species, we defined seven distinct fungal DyP clades on basis of a sequence similarity network. Sequences from one of these clades clearly diverged from all others, having on average the lower isoelectric points and hydropathy indices, the highest number of N-glycosylation sites, and N-terminal sequence peptides for secretion. Putative proteins from this clade are absent from brown-rot and ectomycorrhizal species that have lost the capability of degrading lignin enzymatically. They are almost exclusively present in white-rot and other saprotrophic Basidiomycota that digest lignin enzymatically, thus lending support for a specific role of DyPs from this clade in biochemical lignin modification. Additional nearly full-length fungal DyP genes were isolated from the environment by sequence capture by hybridization; they all belonged to the clade of the presumably secreted DyPs and to another related clade. We suggest focusing our attention on the presumably intracellular DyPs from the other clades, which have not been characterized thus far and could represent enzyme proteins with novel catalytic properties. Key points • A fungal DyP phylogeny delineates seven main sequence clades. • Putative extracellular DyPs form a single clade of Basidiomycota sequences. • Extracellular DyPs are associated to white-rot fungi.

Abstract
Background: Fungal DyP-type peroxidases have so far been described exclusively for basidiomycetes. Moreover, peroxidases from ascomycetes that oxidize Mn2+ ions are yet not known. Methods: We describe here the physicochemical, biocatalytic, and molecular characterization of a DyP-type peroxidase (DyP, EC 1.11.1.19) from an ascomycetous fungus. Results: The enzyme oxidizes classic peroxidase substrates such as 2,6-DMP but also veratryl alcohol and notably Mn2+ to Mn3+ ions, suggesting a physiological function of this DyP in lignin modification. The KM value (49 µM) indicates that Mn2+ ions bind with high affinity to the XgrDyP protein but their subsequent oxidation into reactive Mn3+ proceeds with moderate efficiency compared to MnPs and VPs. Mn2+ oxidation was most effective at an acidic pH (between 4.0 and 5.0) and a hypothetical surface exposed an Mn2+ binding site comprising three acidic amino acids (two aspartates and one glutamate) could be localized within the hypothetical XgrDyP structure. The oxidation of Mn2+ ions is seemingly supported by four aromatic amino acids that mediate an electron transfer from the surface to the heme center. Conclusions: Our findings shed new light on the possible involvement of DyP-type peroxidases in lignocellulose degradation, especially by fungi that lack prototypical ligninolytic class II peroxidases.

Abstract
Structure determination of proteins and enzymes by X-ray crystallography remains the most widely used approach to complement functional and mechanistic studies. Capturing the structures of intact redox states in metalloenzymes is critical for assigning the chemistry carried out by the metal in the catalytic cycle. Unfortunately, X-rays interact with protein crystals to generate solvated photoelectrons that can reduce redox active metals and hence change the coordination geometry and the coupled protein structure. Approaches to mitigate such site-specific radiation damage continue to be developed, but nevertheless application of such approaches to metalloenzymes in combination with mechanistic studies are often overlooked. In this review, we summarize our recent structural and kinetic studies on a set of three heme peroxidases found in the bacterium Streptomyces lividans that each belong to the dye decolourizing peroxidase (DyP) superfamily. Kinetically, each of these DyPs has a distinct reactivity with hydrogen peroxide. Through a combination of low dose synchrotron X-ray crystallography and zero dose serial femtosecond X-ray crystallography using an X-ray free electron laser (XFEL), high-resolution structures with unambiguous redox state assignment of the ferric and ferryl (FeIV = O) heme species have been obtained. Experiments using stopped-flow kinetics, solvent-isotope exchange and site-directed mutagenesis with this set of redox state validated DyP structures have provided the first comprehensive kinetic and structural framework for how DyPs can modulate their distal heme pocket Asp/Arg dyad to use either the Asp or the Arg to facilitate proton transfer and rate enhancement of peroxide heterolysis.

Abstract
DyP-type peroxidases are a family of heme peroxidases named for their ability to degrade persistent anthraquinone dyes. DyP-type peroxidases are subclassified into three classes: classes P, I and V. Based on its genome sequence, Streptomyces avermitilis, eubacteria, has two genes presumed to encode class V DyP-type peroxidases and two class I genes. We have previously shown that ectopically expressed SaDyP2, a member of class V, indeed has the characteristics of a DyP-type peroxidase. In this study, we analyzed SaDyP1, a member of the same class V as SaDyP2. SaDyP1 showed high amino acid sequence identity to SaDyP2, retaining a conserved GXXDG motif and catalytic aspartate. SaDyP1 degraded anthraquinone dyes, which are specific substrates of DyP-type peroxidases but not azo dyes. In addition to such substrate specificity, SaDyP1 showed other features of DyP-type peroxidases, such as low optimal pH. Furthermore, immunoblotting using an anti-SaDyP2 polyclonal antibody revealed that SaDyP1 and/or SaDyP2 is expressed in mycelia of wild-type S. avermitilis.

Sugano Y, Yoshida T. DyP-Type Peroxidases: Recent Advances and Perspectives. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:5556. [PMID: 34074047 PMCID: PMC8197335 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22115556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Revised: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 05/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
In this review, we chart the major milestones in the research progress on the DyP-type peroxidase family over the past decade. Though mainly distributed among bacteria and fungi, this family actually exhibits more widespread diversity. Advanced tertiary structural analyses have revealed common and different features among members of this family. Notably, the catalytic cycle for the peroxidase activity of DyP-type peroxidases appears to be different from that of other ubiquitous heme peroxidases. DyP-type peroxidases have also been reported to possess activities in addition to peroxidase function, including hydrolase or oxidase activity. They also show various cellular distributions, functioning not only inside cells but also outside of cells. Some are also cargo proteins of encapsulin. Unique, noteworthy functions include a key role in life-cycle switching in Streptomyces and the operation of an iron transport system in Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli. We also present several probable physiological roles of DyP-type peroxidases that reflect the widespread distribution and function of these enzymes. Lignin degradation is the most common function attributed to DyP-type peroxidases, but their activity is not high compared with that of standard lignin-degrading enzymes. From an environmental standpoint, degradation of natural antifungal anthraquinone compounds is a specific focus of DyP-type peroxidase research. Considered in its totality, the DyP-type peroxidase family offers a rich source of diverse and attractive materials for research scientists.

Understanding molecular enzymology of porphyrin-binding α + β barrel proteins - One fold, multiple functions. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-PROTEINS AND PROTEOMICS 2020; 1869:140536. [PMID: 32891739 PMCID: PMC7611857 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbapap.2020.140536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2020] [Revised: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 09/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
There is a high functional diversity within the structural superfamily of porphyrin-binding dimeric α + β barrel proteins. In this review we aim to analyze structural constraints of chlorite dismutases, dye-decolorizing peroxidases and coproheme decarboxylases in detail. We identify regions of structural variations within the highly conserved fold, which are most likely crucial for functional specificities. The loop linking the two ferredoxin-like domains within one subunit can be of different sequence lengths and can adopt various structural conformations, consequently defining the shape of the substrate channels and the respective active site architectures. The redox cofactor, heme b or coproheme, is oriented differently in either of the analyzed enzymes. By thoroughly dissecting available structures and discussing all available results in the context of the respective functional mechanisms of each of these redox-active enzymes, we highlight unsolved mechanistic questions in order to spark future research in this field.

Microbiologyopen 2020; 9:e1042. [PMID: 32529805 PMCID: PMC7424253 DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.1042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2019] [Revised: 03/19/2020] [Accepted: 03/28/2020] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Fungal mycelia can eliminate almost all cocultured cyanobacterial cells within a short time. However, molecular mechanisms of algicidal fungi are poorly understood. In this study, a time‐course transcriptomic analysis of algicidal fungus Bjerkandera adusta T1 was applied to investigate gene expression and regulation. A total of 132, 300, 422, and 823 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified at 6, 12, 24, and 48 hr, respectively. Most DEGs exhibited high endopeptidase activity, cellulose catabolic process, and transmembrane transporter activity by using Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses. Many decomposition genes encoding endopeptidases were induced a little later in B. adusta T1 when compared with previously investigated algicidal fungus Trametes versicolor F21a. Besides, the accumulated expression of Polysaccharide lyases8 (PL8) gene with peptidoglycan and alginate decomposition abilities was greatly delayed in B. adusta T1 relative to T. versicolor F21a. It was implied that endopeptidases and enzymes of PL8 might be responsible for the strong algicidal ability of B. adusta T1 as well as T. versicolor F21a.

Abstract
Different phytotoxic metabolites were isolated from the organic extract of Neofusicoccum luteum, Neofusicoccum australe, and Neofusicoccum parvum, causal agents of Botryosphaeria dieback in Australia. N. luteum produced a new disubstituted furo-α-pyrone, a hexasubstituted anthraquinone, and a trisubstituted oxepi-2(7H)-one, luteopyroxin (4), neoanthraquinone (5), and luteoxepinone (7), respectively, together with the known (±)-nigrosporione (6), tyrosol (8), (R)-(-)-mellein (1), and (3R,4S)-(-)- and (3R,4R)-(-)-4-hydroxymellein (2 and 3). The three melleins and tyrosol were also produced by N. parvum, while N. australe produced (R)-(-)-mellein (1), neoanthraquinone (5), tyrosol (8), and p-cresol (9). Luteopryoxin (4), neoanthraquinone (5), and luteoxepinone (7) were characterized by analyses of physical data, essentially one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The relative and absolute configurations of luteopyroxin (4) were determined by nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy and experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism data. When assayed on grapevine leaves, neoanthraquinone (5) showed the highest toxic effect, causing severe shriveling and withering. Luteopyroxin (4), nigrosporione (6), and luteoxepinone (7) also showed different degrees of toxicity, while p-cresol (9) displayed low phytotoxicity.
