ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 319:120999. [PMID: 36608728 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.120999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/31/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
In the continual march to a predominantly urbanized civilization, anthropogenic activities have increased scrupulously, industrialization have occurred, economic growth has increased, and natural resources are being exploited, causing huge waste management problems, disposal issues, and the evolution of several pollutants. In order to have a sustainable environment, these pollutants need to be removed and degraded. Bioremediation employing microorganisms or enzymes can be used to treat the pollutants by degrading and/or transforming the pollutants into different form which is less or non-toxic to the environment. Laccase is a diverse enzyme/biocatalyst belonging to the oxidoreductase group of enzymes produced by microorganisms. Due to its low substrate specificity and monoelectronic oxidation of substrates in a wide range of complexes, it is most commonly used to degrade chemical pollutants. For degradation of emerging pollutants, laccase can be efficiently employed; however, large-scale application needs reusability, thermostability, and operational stability which necessitated strategies like immobilization and engineering of robust laccase possessing desirable properties. Immobilization of laccase for bioremediation, and treatment of wastewater for degrading emerging pollutants have been focussed for sustainable development. Challenges of employing biocatalysts for these applications as well as engineering robust laccase have been highlighted in this study.

Fractionation of Technical Lignin from Enzymatically Treated Steam-Exploded Poplar Using Ethanol and Formic Acid. ACS APPLIED POLYMER MATERIALS 2022; 4:9388-9398.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biorefineries produce lignin-rich side streams with high valorization potential concealed behind their recalcitrant structure. Valorization of these residues to chemicals, materials, and fuels increases the profitability of biorefineries. Fractionation is required to reduce the lignins' structural heterogeneity for further processing. We fractionated the technical biorefinery lignin received after steam explosion and saccharification processes. More homogeneous lignin fractions were produced with high β-O-4' and aromatic content without residual carbohydrates. Non-toxic biodegradable organic solvents like ethanol and formic acid were used for fractionation and can be adapted to the existing biorefinery processes. Macromolecular properties of the isolated fractions were carefully characterized by structural, chemical, and thermal methods. The ethanol organosolv treatment produced highly soluble lignin with a reasonable yield, providing a uniform material for lignin applications. The organosolv fractionation with formic acid and combined ethanol-formic acid produced modified lignins that, based on thermal analysis, are promising as thermoresponsive materials.

[PMID: 36126851 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2022.127986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
Lignocellulose, the most prevalent biomass on earth, can be enzymatically converted into carbohydrates for bioethanol production and other uses. Among lignocellulosic enzymes, endoglucanase, xylanase, and laccase are the key enzymes, owing to their ability to disrupt the main structure of lignocellulose. Recently, new discovery methods have been established to obtain key lignocellulosic enzymes with excellent enzymatic properties. Molecular modification of enzymes to modulate their thermostability, catalytic activity, and substrate specificity has been performed with protein engineering technology. In addition, the enzyme expression has been effectively improved through expression element screening and host modification, as well as fermentation optimization. Immobilization of enzymes, use of surfactants, synergistic degradation, and optimization of reaction conditions have addressed the inefficiency of enzymatic saccharification. In this review, recent advances in key lignocellulosic enzymes are summarized, along with future prospects for the development of super-engineered strains and integrative technologies for enzymatic biomass saccharification.

Abstract
Laccase is a delignifying enzyme that belongs to the oxidoreductase family, and it has long been investigated as a pretreatment agent in biofuel production. In this study, amino acid sequences of five bacterial laccases from Bifidobacterium breve, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudodesulfovibrio hydrargyri, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Veillonella rodentium have been retrieved from UniProtKB for sequence alignment, phylogenetic analysis using MEGA 7.0 and 3 D structure prediction by homology modeling in SWISS-MODEL. Multiple sequence alignment between all the bacterial laccase sequences revealed a similar structural fold, although the overall protein sequence varied greatly with the substrate binding sites. Further molecular docking in AutoDock Vina and MD stimulation (MDS) in GROMACS for those modelled enzymes were performed considering both apo and ligand bound structures considering both apo and its ligand bound form. Investigation of molecular interaction utilizing docking of five bacterial laccases with three substrates (ABTS, DMP and Guaiacol) revealed that ABTS with K. pneumoniae laccase had the highest binding energy of -7.00 kcal/mol. In the current MDS investigation, bacterial laccases demonstrated greater binding and substrate energy in the ligand bound complex than in the apo form for ABTS, DMP and Guaiacol. In most cases of bacterial laccase, MDS revealed that DMP bound complex was more stable within an average RMSD value lower than 0.5 nm throughout 100 ns time scale. Thus, in silico studies undertaken in this work will be useful in determining the stable enzyme-substrate complex which further might improve the enzymatic catalysis of bacterial laccases for lignin breakdown and biofuel generation.
