Integrated genome-transcriptome analysis unveiled the mechanism of Debaryomyces hansenii-mediated arsenic stress amelioration in rice. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:133954. [PMID: 38484657 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133954] [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: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
Globally, rice is becoming more vulnerable to arsenic (As) pollution, posing a serious threat to public food safety. Previously Debaryomyces hansenii was found to reduce grain As content of rice. To better understand the underlying mechanism, we performed a genome analysis to identify the key genes in D. hansenii responsible for As tolerance and plant growth promotion. Notably, genes related to As resistance (ARR, Ycf1, and Yap) were observed in the genome of D. hansenii. The presence of auxin pathway and glutathione metabolism-related genes may explain the plant growth-promoting potential and As tolerance mechanism of this novel yeast strain. The genome annotation of D. hansenii indicated that it contains a repertoire of genes encoding antioxidants, well corroborated with the in vitro studies of GST, GR, and glutathione content. In addition, the effect of D. hansenii on gene expression profiling of rice plants under As stress was also examined. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database revealed 307 genes, annotated in D. hansenii-treated rice, related to metabolic pathways (184), photosynthesis (12), glutathione (10), tryptophan (4), and biosynthesis of secondary metabolite (117). Higher expression of regulatory elements like AUX/IAA and WRKY transcription factors (TFs), and defense-responsive genes dismutases, catalases, peroxiredoxin, and glutaredoxins during D. hansenii+As exposure was also observed. Combined analysis revealed that D. hansenii genes are contributing to stress mitigation in rice by supporting plant growth and As-tolerance. The study lays the foundation to develop yeast as a beneficial biofertilizer for As-prone areas.

Efficient production of single cell protein from biogas slurry using screened alkali-salt-tolerant Debaryomyces hansenii. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 393:130119. [PMID: 38040306 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.130119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
Production of single cell protein (SCP) by recovering ammonia nitrogen from biogas slurry shows great potential against protein scarcity and unsustainable production of plant and animal proteins. Herein, a high-alkali-salt-tolerant yeast strain, Debaryomyces hansenii JL8-0, was isolated and demonstrated for high-efficient SCP production. This strain grew optimally at pH 8.50 and 2500 mg/L NH4+-N, and it could efficiently utilize acetate as the additional carbon source. Under optimal conditions, SCP biomass of 32.21 g/L and productivity of 0.32 g/L·h-1 were obtained in fed-batch fermentation. Remarkably, nearly complete (97.40 %) ammonia nitrogen from biogas slurry was recovered, probably due to its high affinity for NH4+-N. Altogether, this strain showed advantages in terms of cell biomass titer, productivity, and yield. A cultivation strategy was proposed by co-culturing D. hansenii with other compatible yeast strains to achieve high-efficient SCP production from biogas slurry, which could be a promising alternative technology for biogas slurry treatment.

Open (non-sterile) cultivations of Debaryomyces hansenii for recombinant protein production combining industrial side-streams with high salt content. N Biotechnol 2023; 78:105-115. [PMID: 37848161 DOI: 10.1016/j.nbt.2023.10.005] [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: 04/26/2023] [Revised: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/14/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
The halotolerant non-conventional yeast Debaryomyces hansenii can grow in media containing high concentrations of salt (up to 4 M), metabolize alternative carbon sources than glucose, such as lactose or glycerol, and withstand a wide range of temperatures and pH. These inherent capabilities allow this yeast to grow in harsh environments and use alternative feedstock than traditional commercial media. For example, D. hansenii could be a potential cell factory for revalorizing industrial salty by-products, using them as a substrate for producing new valuable bioproducts, boosting a circular economy. In this work, three different salty by-products derived from the dairy and biopharmaceutical industry have been tested as a possible feedstock for D. hansenii's growth. The yeast was not only able to grow efficiently in all of them but also to produce a recombinant protein (Yellow Fluorescent Protein, used as a model) without altering its performance. Moreover, open cultivations at different laboratory scales (1.5 mL and 1 L) were performed under non-sterile conditions and without adding fresh water or any nutritional supplement to the cultivation, making the process cheaper and more sustainable.

Yeast strain Debaryomyces hansenii for amelioration of arsenic stress in rice. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2020; 195:110480. [PMID: 32203774 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2020.110480] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2019] [Revised: 03/11/2020] [Accepted: 03/13/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Arsenic (As) is a serious threat for environment and human health. Rice, the main staple crop is more prone to As uptake. Bioremediation strategies with heavy metal tolerant rhizobacteria are well known. The main objective of the study was to characterize arsenic-resistant yeast strains, capable of mitigating arsenic stress in rice. Three yeast strains identified as Debaryomyces hansenii (NBRI-Sh2.11), Candida tropicalis (NBRI-B3.4) and Candida dubliniensis (NBRI-3.5) were found to have As reductase activity. D. hansenii with higher As tolerance has As expulsion ability as compared to other two strains. Inoculation of D. hansenii showed improved detoxification through scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by the modulation of SOD and APX activity under As stress condition in rice. Modulation of defense responsive gene (NADPH, GST, GR) along with arsR and metal cation transporter are the probable mechanism of As detoxification as evident with improved membrane (electrolyte leakage) stability. Reduced grain As (~40% reduction) due to interaction with D. hansenii (NBRI-Sh2.11) further validated it's As mitigation property in rice. To the best of our knowledge D. hansenii has been reported for the first time for arsenic stress mitigation in rice with improved growth and nutrient status of the plant.

Effect of different inoculation strategies of selected yeast and LAB cultures on Conservolea and Kalamàta table olives considering phenol content, texture, and sensory attributes. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2020; 100:926-935. [PMID: 31523827 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.10019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2019] [Revised: 07/22/2019] [Accepted: 09/01/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects were studied of different inoculation strategies for selected starters -yeasts and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) - used for the fermentation process of two Greek olive cultivars, Conservolea and Kalamàta. The LAB strains applied were Leuconostoc mesenteroides K T5-1 and L. plantarum A 135-5; the selected yeast strains were S. cerevisiae KI 30-16 and Debaryomyces hansenii A 15-44 for Kalamàta and Conservolea olives, respectively. RESULTS Table olive fermentation processes were monitored by performing microbiological analyses, and by monitoring changes in pH, titratable acidity and salinity, sugar consumption, and the evolution of volatile compounds. Structural modifications occurring in phenolic compounds of brine were investigated during the fermentation using liquid chromatography / diode array detection / electrospray ion trap tandem mass spectrometry (LC/DAD/ESI-MSn ) and quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a diode array detector. Phenolic compounds in processed Kalamàta olive brines consisted of phenolic acids, verbascoside, caffeoyl-6-secologanoside, comselogoside, and the dialdehydic form of decarboxymethylelenolic acid linked to hydroxytyrosol, whereas oleoside and oleoside 11-methyl ester were identified only in Conservolea olive brines. CONCLUSION Volatile profile and sensory evaluation revealed that the 'MIX' (co-inoculum of yeast and LAB strain) inoculation strategy led to the most aromatic and acceptable Kalamàta olives. For the Conservolea table olives, the 'YL' treatment gave the most aromatic and the overall most acceptable product. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The ability of Debaryomyces hansenii to produce volatile sulfur compounds from sulfur amino acids and the metabolic pathway involved have been studied in seven strains from different food origins. Our results proved that l-methionine is the main precursor for sulfur compound generation. Crucial differences in the sulfur compound profile and amino acid consumption among D. hansenii strains isolated from different food sources were observed. Strains isolated from dry pork sausages displayed the most complex sulfur compound profiles. Sulfur compound production, such as that of methional, could result from chemical reactions or yeast metabolism, while according to this study, thioester methyl thioacetate appeared to be generated by yeast metabolism. No relationship between sulfur compounds production by D. hansenii strains and the expression of genes involved in sulfur amino acid metabolism was found, except for the ATF2 gene in the L1 strain for production of methyl thioacetate. Our results suggest a complex scenario during sulfur compound production by D. hansenii.

Lipolysis and aroma generation as mechanisms involved in masking boar taint in sodium reduced fermented sausages inoculated with Debaryomyces hansenii yeast. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2018; 98:2121-2130.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of boar back fat for processing of fermented sausages may cause the presence of abnormal odours. In dry-cured products, ripening time is essential to develop the sensory characteristics. Yeast has been proposed as an alternative to mask boar taint odour through its metabolic activity but it is necessary to elucidate which mechanisms are involved. The aim is to study the effect of Debaryomyces hansenii inoculation on the lipolysis process and generation of aroma compounds in fermented sausages manufactured with boar back fat at two different ripening times. RESULTS D. hansenii inoculated sausages had a higher degree of lipolysis as demonstrated by higher content of free fatty acids, ester compounds and branched aldehydes which contribute the fruity odour. The increase in lipolysis produced by D. hansenii inoculation was not followed by an increase in oxidation during processing possibly due to the metabolic activity of yeast. The effect of back fat type was scarcely appreciated whereas ripening time had a stronger effect on sausage. Boar sausages were characterised by a lower polyunsaturated fatty acid profile and lesser lipolysis than gilt sausages. CONCLUSION Yeast inoculation with D. hansenii and long ripening time were appropriate strategies to limit the perception of boar taint in dry fermented sausages. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Yeast abundance and species diversity in the latex of caoutchouc tree Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Juss.) M611. Arg., on its green leaves, and in soil below the plant Was studied. The yeasts present in the fresh latex in concentrations of up to 5.5 log(CFU/g) were almost exclusively represented by the species Candida heveicola, which was previously isolated from Hevea latex in China. In the course of natural modification of the latex yeast diversity increased, while yeast abundance decreased. The yeasts of thickened and solidified latex were represented by typical epiphytic and ubiquitous species: Kodamea ohmeri, Debaryomyces hansenii, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, and synanthropic species Candida parapsilosis and Cutaneotrichosporon arbori- formis. The role of yeasts in latex modification at the initial stages of succession and their probable role in de- velopment of antifungal activity in the latex are discussed.

Abstract
An intracellular β-glucosidase from Debaryomyceshansenii UFV-1 was produced in an YP medium with cellobiose as the carbon source. This enzyme was purified, characterised and presented a Mr of 65.15kDa. Yeast cells containing the intracellular β-glucosidase were immobilised in calcium alginate. The free β-glucosidase and immobilised cells containing the enzyme presented optima values of pH and temperature of 6.0 and 45°C and 5.5 and 50°C, respectively. The free enzyme maintained 62% and 47% of its original activity after 90days at 4°C and after 15days at room temperature, respectively. The immobilisation process resulted in higher enzyme thermostability at 45 and 50°C. Soy molasses treatment with the free enzyme and the immobilised cells containing β-glucosidase, for 2h at 40°C, promoted efficient hydrolysis of isoflavone glicosides to their aglycon forms. The results suggest that this enzyme could be used in the food industry, in the free or immobilised forms, for a safe and efficient process to hydrolyse isoflavone glycosides in soy molasses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vinasses, the main liquid wastes from the distillation process of grape marc and wine lees, are acidic effluents with high organic content, including acids, carbohydrates, phenols, and unsaturated compounds with high chemical oxygen demand, biological oxygen demand and solid concentrations. These wastes can be revalued to provide additional benefits when they are employed as feedstock of some compounds including tartaric acid, calcium tartrate and economic nutrients for the elaboration of fermentable broths. RESULT This study attempts to recover tartaric acid and calcium tartrate from vinasses. All the tartaric acid initially solubilised was recovered in both processes. The residual streams can be successfully employed as economic nutrients for the xylose to xylitol bioconversion, achieving higher global volumetric productivities (Q(P, xylitol) = 0.232 g L(-1) h(-1)) and products yields (Y(xylitol/S) = 0.57 g g(-1)) than fermentations carried out using commercial nutrients (Q(P, xylitol) = 0.193 g L(-1) h(-1) and Y(xylitol/S) = 0.55 g g(-1) respectively). CONCLUSION Tartaric acid can be recovered from vinasses in the form of tartaric acid crystals and calcium tartrate. The residual streams generated in the process can be used as economic nutrients for the production of xylitol by D. hansenii.

Abstract
A hydrolysis of 62% and 50% for OSX (Oat spelt xylan) and WBH (Wheat bran hemicellulose) were obtained in 36h and 48h using Accellerase 1000 at 50 degrees C wherein thermostable xylanase from alkalothermophilic Thermomonospora sp. yielded 67% (OSX) in 3h and 58% (WBH) in 24h at 60 degrees C, favouring a reduction in process time and enzyme dosage. The rate of hydrolysis with thermostable xylanase was increased by 20% with the addition of nonionic surfactant tween 80 or biosurfactant sophorolipid. The simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of OSX and WBH using thermostable xylanase and D. hansenii in batch cultures produced 9.1g/L and 9.5 g/L of ethanol, respectively and had a shorter overall process time than the separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF). The immobilized yeast cells in Ca-alginate matrix produced ethanol with a yield of 0.46 g/g from hemicellulosic hydrolysates and were reused six times with 100% fermentation efficiency.

The crystal structures of yeast Get3 suggest a mechanism for tail-anchored protein membrane insertion. PLoS One 2009; 4:e8061.

Abstract
Tail-anchored (TA) proteins represent a unique class of membrane proteins that contain a single C-terminal transmembrane helix. The post-translational insertion of the yeast TA proteins into the ER membrane requires the Golgi ER trafficking (GET) complex which contains Get1, Get2 and Get3. Get3 is an ATPase that recognizes and binds the C-terminal transmembrane domain (TMD) of the TA proteins. We have determined the crystal structures of Get3 from two yeast species, S. cerevisiae and D. hansenii, respectively. These high resolution crystal structures show that Get3 contains a nucleotide-binding domain and a "finger" domain for binding the TA protein TMD. A large hydrophobic groove on the finger domain of S. cerevisiae Get3 structure might represent the binding site for TMD of TA proteins. A hydrophobic helix from a symmetry-related Get3 molecule sits in the TMD-binding groove and mimics the TA binding scenario. Interestingly, the crystal structures of the Get3 dimers from S. cerevisiae and D. hansenii exhibit distinct conformations. The S. cerevisiae Get3 dimer structure does not contain nucleotides and maintains an "open" conformation, while the D. hansenii Get3 dimer structure binds ADP and stays in a "closed" conformation. We propose that the conformational changes to switch the Get3 between the open and closed conformations may facilitate the membrane insertions for TA proteins.

Abstract
Yeast extract (YE) is the most common nitrogen source in a variety of bioprocesses in spite of the high cost. Therefore, the use of YE in culture media is one of the major technical hurdles to be overcome for the development of low-cost fermentation routes, making the search for alternative-cheaper nitrogen sources particularly desired. The aim of the current study is to develop cost-effective media based on corn steep liquor (CSL) and locally available vinasses in order to increase the economic potential for larger-scale bioproduction. Three microorganisms were evaluated: Lactobacillus rhamnosus , Debaryomyces hansenii , and Aspergillus niger . The amino acid profile and protein concentration was relevant for the xylitol and citric acid production by D. hansenii and A. niger , respectively. Metals also played an important role for citric acid production, meanwhile, D. hansenii showed a strong dependence with the initial amount of Mg(2+). Under the best conditions, 28.8 g lactic acid/L (Q(LA) = 0.800 g/L.h, Y(LA/S) = 0.95 g/g), 35.3 g xylitol/L (Q(xylitol) = 0.380 g/L.h, Y(xylitol/S) = 0.69 g/g), and 13.9 g citric acid/L (Q(CA) = 0.146 g/L.h, Y(CA/S) = 0.63 g/g) were obtained. The economic efficiency (E(p/euro)) parameter identify vinasses as a lower cost and more effective nutrient source in comparison to CSL.

Abstract
Fungal diversity during composting was investigated by culture-independent rDNA sequence analysis. Composting was carried out with pig manure and mushroom cultural waste using a field-scale composter (Hazaka system), and samples were collected at various stages. Based on partial sequence analysis of large subunit (LSU) ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and sequence identity values, a total of 12 different fungal species were found at six sampling sites; Geotrichum sp., Debaryomyces hansenii, Monographella nivalis, Acremonium strictum, Acremonium alternatum, Cladosporium sphaerospermum, Myriangium durosai, Pleurotus eryngii, Malassezia globosa, Malassezia restricta, Rhodotorula glutinis, and Fusarium sporotrichioides. Geotrichum sp. of the class Saccharomycetes was the most predominant fungal species throughout the composting process (185 out of a total of 236 identified clones, or 78.4%), followed by Acremonium strictum (7.6%), Monographella nivalis (5.1%), and Pleurotus eryngii (3.8%). The prevalence of Geotrichum sp. was the lowest (61.1%) at the beginning of composting, and then gradually increased to 92.5% after 10 days of composting.
