Dairy manure acidogenic fermentation at hyperthermophilic temperature enabled superior activity of thermostable hydrolytic enzymes linked to the genus Caldicoprobacter. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 391:129978. [PMID: 37944622 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129978] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
In this study, fermentation experiments were conducted under mesophilic, thermophilic, and hyperthermophilic conditions to investigate adaptation of microbial communities and its effect on extracellular enzyme activities toward degradation of cellulose, hemicellulose and proteins in dairy manure. Hyperthermophilic conditions transformed the microbiome structure and stimulated activity of extracellular proteolytic, cellulolytic, and hemicellulolytic enzymes. Specifically, the activities of protease, cellulose 1,4-β-cellobiosidase, and β-glucosidase secreted by hyperthermophilic microbes were higher by 22%, 47% and 49% compared to those produced by mesophilic and thermophilic communities. Enhanced hydrolytic activity of hyperthermophilic microbes enabled improved feedstock solubilization and production of 39% and 22% more soluble COD than mesophilic and thermophilic microbes, respectively. Connections between hydrolytic function and microbial community structure at various temperatures were assessed using the PICRUSt2 computational tool. Genus Caldicoprobacter was identified as the primary candidate responsible for increased production of thermostable endo-1,4-β-glucanase, β-glucosidase and endo-1,4-β-xylanase, and enhanced hydrolytic performance of hyperthermophilic microbial community.

Abstract
Marine microorganisms represent virtually unlimited sources of novel biological compounds and can survive extreme conditions. Cellulases, a group of enzymes that are able to degrade cellulosic materials, are in high demand in various industrial and biotechnological applications, such as in the medical and pharmaceutical industries, food, fuel, agriculture, and single-cell protein, and as probiotics in aquaculture. The cellulosic biopolymer is a renewable resource and is a linearly arranged polysaccharide of glucose, with repeating units of disaccharide connected via β-1,4-glycosidic bonds, which are broken down by cellulase. A great deal of biodiversity resides in the ocean, and marine systems produce a wide range of distinct, new bioactive compounds that remain available but dormant for many years. The marine environment is filled with biomass from known and unknown vertebrates and invertebrate microorganisms, with much potential for use in medicine and biotechnology. Hence, complex polysaccharides derived from marine sources are a rich resource of microorganisms equipped with enzymes for polysaccharides degradation. Marine cellulases' extracts from the isolates are tested for their functional role in degrading seaweed and modifying wastes to low molecular fragments. They purify and renew environments by eliminating possible feedstocks of pollution. This review aims to examine the various types of marine cellulase producers and assess the ability of these microorganisms to produce these enzymes and their subsequent biotechnological applications.

Abstract
Cellulose represents the most abundant component of plant biomass on earth; it is degraded by cellulases, specific enzymes produced by microorganisms. However, cellulases of bacterial origin attract more interest due to their natural diversity and ability to inhabit a variety of niches, allowing the selection of cellulolytic strains resistant to environmental stresses. The screening of the cellulolytic activity of 398 bacteria isolated from various ecosystems in Algeria (cave, ruins, chott, thermal station, and rhizosphere of arid and semi-arid regions) was performed by the appearance of a hydrolysis zone on carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) medium. The cellulase activity on CMC (1%) broth allowed to select 26 strains among which 12 had the best activity (0.3 U/mL to 2.2 U/mL). Optimization of physicochemical parameters (salinity: 0–1 M NaCl; pH: 3, 4, 7, 9, and 11; temperature: 30, 45, and 50 °C; PEG8000: 0 and 30%) involved in growth and cellulose production showed that the majority of strains were mesophilic, neutrophilic, or alkali- tolerant and tolerant to 30% of PEG8000. The cellulase activity and stability under different stress allowed to retain five strains, which the most efficient. Based on the 16S-rRNA sequencing results, they belonged to the genus Bacillus. The physicochemical properties of cellulases (crude extract) showed a CMCase active over a wide range of pH (4 to 11), optimal at 50 °C and 60 °C. The inhibiting salinity effect on the activity was not detected and was negligible on the enzymatic stability. The residual CMCase activity remained between 40 and 70% in a temperature range between 40 and 70 °C, was stable over a wide range of saline concentrations (0–2000 mM), and was weakly affected at 30% of PEG8000. The crude enzyme extract was able to hydrolyze both soluble and insoluble cellulosic substrates. The evaluation of the hydrolysis capacity of lignocellulosic waste revealed the ability of tested strains to degrade wheat bran, barley bran, and corncob. In addition, the enzyme showed significant multi-stress resistance on solid and liquid media. By these characteristics, these cellulolytic bacteria could be attractive to be used in various industrial and biotechnology applications.

Abstract
Some microbial strains are ideal producers of extracellular enzymes that can be used in various industries. However, in many fields, especially in the pharmaceutical field, these enzymes need to be recovered and purified through multistep processes and tedious procedures before they can be used. The recovery process is difficult and increases the cost of enzyme production. Therefore, reducing purification steps will greatly benefit the utilization of microbial enzymes. The 35 M strain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, which has high extracellular protease production, was isolated from a phosphate mine. When cultured in a medium with soybean meal as the main component, the maximum activity of extracellular protease reached 16,992 U/mL. SDS-PAGE showed that there were two main proteins in the fermentation supernatant, with a paucity of other defined protein bands. Mass spectrometry and zymogram analysis showed that the two main bands were two proteases, corresponding to alkaline protease (AprM) and neutral protease (NprM), respectively. Gene cloning, sequencing, and further comparisons were used to confirm AprM and NprM correspond to these proteases from B. amyloliquefaciens. Notably, SDS-PAGE and zymogram analysis showed that NprM had obviously higher catalytic efficiency toward casein than did AprM. Strain 35 M is a promising protease producer with great potential for applications in industrial protease production. Additionally, this study demonstrates strain 35 M may be particularly well suited to use in degrading anti-nutritional factors in soybean meal, so as to improve the nutritional value of soybean meal.

Abstract
Cellulases play a promising role in the bioconversion of renewable lignocellulosic biomass into fermentable sugars which are subsequently fermented to biofuels and other value-added chemicals. Besides biofuel industries, they are also in huge demand in textile, detergent, and paper and pulp industries. Low titres of cellulase production and processing are the main issues that contribute to high enzyme cost. The success of ethanol-based biorefinery depends on high production titres and the catalytic efficiency of cellulases functional at elevated temperatures with acid/alkali tolerance and the low cost. In view of their wider application in various industrial processes, stable cellulases that are active at elevated temperatures in the acidic-alkaline pH ranges, and organic solvents and salt tolerance would be useful. This review provides a recent update on the advances made in thermostable cellulases. Developments in their sources, characteristics and mechanisms are updated. Various methods such as rational design, directed evolution, synthetic & system biology and immobilization techniques adopted in evolving cellulases with ameliorated thermostability and characteristics are also discussed. The wide range of applications of thermostable cellulases in various industrial sectors is described.

Abstract
The bacterium Microbulbifer sp. ALW1 was previously characterized with the capability to break down the cell wall of brown algae into fine pieces. The biological functions of strain ALW1 were yet to be elucidated. In this study, a gene, namely MaCel5A, was isolated from the ALW1 strain genome, encoding an endo-β-1,4-glucanase. MaCel5A was phylogenetically categorized under the glycoside hydrolase family GH5, with the highest identity to a putative cellulase of Microbulbifer thermotolerans. The recombinant MaCel5A protein purified from heterologous expression in E. coli exhibited maximum activity at 50 °C and pH 6.0, respectively, and functioned selectively toward carboxymethyl cellulose and barley β-glucan. Recombinant MaCel5A demonstrated considerable tolerance to the exposure to high temperature up to 80 °C for 30 min retaining 49% residual activity. In addition, MaCel5A showed moderate stability against pH 5.0-11.0 and strong stability in the presence of nonionic surfactant. MaCel5A exhibited strong halo-stability and halotolerance. The activity of the enzyme increased about tenfold at 0.5 M NaCl, and about fivefold even at 4.0 M NaCl compared to the enzyme activity without the addition of salt. The two conserved glutamic acid residues in MaCel5A featured the typical catalytic acid/base and nucleophile machinery of glycoside hydrolases. These characteristics highlight the industrial application potential of MaCel5A.

Abstract
A new isolated cellulolytic bacterium from a soft coral was named as Fictibacillus sp YS-26 based on the morphologic and molecular characteristics. It can degrade different lignocellulosic agricultural residues by producing cellulolytic enzymes, α-amylase, protease, pectinase and xylanase. Especially, Fictibacillus sp. YS-26 exhibited the highest cellulolytic activities in the soybean meal medium. By contrast, the fermentation broth of Fictibacillus sp. YS-26 significantly enhanced utilization efficiency of carboxylic acids and polymers by soil microorganisms as well as the microbial metabolism function and community diversity in rhizosphere soil of banana plantlets. The fermentation broth also improved soil characters and increased the growth of banana plantlets. We found that soil total nitrogen and electrical conductivity had a positive relationship with the increase of microbial diversity. Hence, Fictibacillus sp. YS-26 will be a promising candidate for biodegradating lignocellulosic biomass and improving the soil microbial diversity.

Abstract
Deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs) are considered to be among the most extreme ecosystems on our planet, allowing only the life of polyextremophilic organisms. DHABs’ prokaryotes exhibit extraordinary metabolic capabilities, representing a hot topic for microbiologists and biotechnologists. These are a source of enzymes and new secondary metabolites with valuable applications in different biotechnological fields. Here, we review the current knowledge on prokaryotic diversity in DHABs, highlighting the biotechnological applications of identified taxa and isolated species. The discovery of new species and molecules from these ecosystems is expanding our understanding of life limits and is expected to have a strong impact on biotechnological applications.

Abstract
Biodiversity has been explored in the search for novel enzymes, including forests, savannas, tundras, deserts, and finally the sea. Marine microorganisms and their enzymes are capable of being active in high-salt concentration, large range of temperature, and high incidence of light and pressure, constituting an important source of unique biocatalysts. This review presents studies employing whole-cell processes of marine bacteria and fungi, aiming for new catalysts for different reactions in organic synthesis, such as reduction, oxidation, hydroxylation, hydrolysis, elimination, and conjugation. Genomics and protein engineering studies were also approached, and reactions employing isolated enzymes from different classes (oxidoreductases, hydrolases, lyases, and ligases) were described and summarized. Future biotechnological studies and process development should focus on molecular biology for the obtention of enzymes with interesting, fascinating and enhanced properties, starting from the exploration of microorganisms from the marine environment. This review approaches the literature about the use of marine-derived bacteria, fungi, and their enzymes for biocatalytic reactions of organic compounds, promoting a discussion about the possibilities of these microorganisms in the synthesis of different substances.

Abstract
It is envisaged that the utilization of lignocellulosic biomass for ethanol production for transport sector, would make cellulases the most demanded industrial enzyme. The greatest potential of cellulolytic enzymes lies in ethanol production from biomass by enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose but low thermostability and low titer of cellulase production resulting into high cost of the enzyme which is the major set-back. A number of research groups are working on cellulase to improve its thermostability so as to be able to perform hydrolysis at elevated temperatures which would eventually increase the efficiency of cellulose hydrolysis. The technologies developed from lignocellulosic biomass via cellulose hydrolysis promise environmental and economical sustainability in the long run along with non-dependence on nonrenewable energy source. This review deals with the important sources of thermostable cellulases, mechanism, its regulation, strategies to enhance the thermostability further with respect to its importance for biofuel applications.
