Discovering the role of the apolipoprotein gene and the genes in the putative pullulan biosynthesis pathway on the synthesis of pullulan,heavy oil and melanin in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Aureobasidium pullulans</Emphasis>

Pullulan produced by Aureobasidium pullulans presents various applications in food manufacturing and pharmaceutical industry. However, the pullulan biosynthesis mechanism remains unclear. This work proposed a pathway suggesting that heavy oil and melanin may correlate with pullulan production. The effects of overexpression or deletion of genes encoding apolipoprotein, UDPG-pyrophosphorylase, glucosyltransferase, and α-phosphoglucose mutase on the production of pullulan, heavy oil, and melanin were examined. Pullulan production increased by 16.93 and 8.52% with the overexpression of UDPG-pyrophosphorylase and apolipoprotein genes, respectively. Nevertheless, the overexpression or deletion of other genes exerted little effect on pullulan biosynthesis. Heavy oil production increased by 146.30, 64.81, and 33.33% with the overexpression of UDPG-pyrophosphorylase, α-phosphoglucose mutase, and apolipoprotein genes, respectively. Furthermore, the syntheses of pullulan, heavy oil, and melanin can compete with one another. This work may provide new guidance to improve the production of pullulan, heavy oil, and melanin through genetic approach.

Production of pullulan from xylose and hemicellulose hydrolysate by Aureobasidium pullulans AY82 with pH control and DL-dithiothreitol addition

Xylose, the second most abundant sugar in lignocellulosic materials, is not efficiently utilized in current lignocellulose biotransformation processes, such as cellulosic ethanol production. The bioconversion of xylose to value-added products, such as pullulan, is an alternative strategy for efficient lignocellulose biotransformation. This paper reports the production of pullulan from xylose and hemicellulose hydrolysate by Aureobasidium pullulans AY82. The effects of DL-dithiothreitol (DTT) and pH on pullulan production from xylose were also intensively investigated. A maximal increase of 17.55% of pullulan production was observed in flasks added with 1.0 mM DTT. Batch fermentations with controlled pH were also conducted, and the optimal pH for cell growth and pullulan synthesis was 3.0 and 5.0, respectively. Based on these findings, two-stage pH control fermentations were performed, in which the pH of the medium was first adjusted to 3.0 for cell growth, and then changed to 5.0 for pullulan synthesis. However, the earlier the pH was changed to 5.0, the more pullulan was produced. Fermentation with controlled pH of 5.0 acquired the highest pullulan production. Under the optimized conditions (with the addition of 1.0 mM DTT and controlled pH of 5.0), the maximal pullulan production obtained from xylose was 17.63 g/L. A. pullulans AY82 also readily fermented hemicellulose hydrolysate under these optimized conditions, but with lower pullulan production (12.65 g/L). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and high-performance liquid chromatography showed that the structure of the pullulan obtained in this study was identical to that of the pullulan standard.     

Pullulan: biosynthesis,production, and applications

Pullulan is a linear glucosic polysaccharide produced by the polymorphic fungus Aureobasidium pullulans, which has long been applied for various applications from food additives to environmental remediation agents. This review article presents an overview of pullulan’s chemistry, biosynthesis, applications, state-of-the-art advances in the enhancement of pullulan production through the investigations of enzyme regulations, molecular properties, cultivation parameters, and bioreactor design. The enzyme regulations are intended to illustrate the influences of metabolic pathway on pullulan production and its structural composition. Molecular properties, such as molecular weight distribution and pure pullulan content, of pullulan are crucial for pullulan applications and vary with different fermentation parameters. Studies on the effects of environmental parameters and new bioreactor design for enhancing pullulan production are getting attention. Finally, the potential applications of pullulan through chemical modification as a novel biologically active derivative are also discussed.

Pullulan Elaboration by Aureobasidium pullulans Protoplasts

Protoplasts of Aureobasidium pullulans are capable of producing pullulan. Biosynthesis of the polymer pullulan required induction with kinetics similar to those of whole cells. The protoplasts also produced a heteropolysaccharide component containing mannose, glucose, and galactose. The relative proportions of the pullulan and heteropolysaccharide fractions were a function of glucose concentration, with the pullulan content of the total polysaccharide rising from 20% at 2.5 mM glucose to 45% at 20 mM glucose. Elaboration of pullulan by both cells and protoplasts was sensitive to 0.6 M KCl, which was present as the osmotic stabilizer in protoplast experiments. The presence of KCl resulted in a shift in the pH optimum to a more acidic value. The molecular weight of the protoplast-derived pullulan was sharply reduced from the molecular weight of the whole-cell-derived product. Exposure of the protoplasts to proteolytic enzymes had no effect on polysaccharide elaboration.     

Optimization of physico‐chemical and nutritional parameters for a novel pullulan‐producing fungus,Eurotium chevalieri

Aims: To isolate the novel nonmelanin pullulan‐producing fungi from soil and to optimize the physico‐chemical and nutritional parameters for pullulan production. Methods and Results: A selective enrichment method was followed for the isolation, along with development of a suitable medium for pullulan production, using shake flask experiments. Pullulan content was confirmed using pure pullulan and pullulanase hydrolysate. Eurotium chevalieri was able to produce maximum pullulan (38 ± 1·0 g l^?1) at 35°C, pH 5·5, 2·5% sucrose, 0·3% ammonium sulfate and 0·2% yeast extract in a shake flash culture medium with an agitation rate of 30 rev min^?1 for 65 h. Conclusions: The novel pullulan‐producing fungus was identified as E. chevalieri (MTCC no. 9614), which was able to produce nonmelanin pullulan at from poorer carbon and nitrogen sources than Aureobasidium pullulans and may therefore be useful for the commercial production of pullulan. Significance and Impact of the Study: Eurotium chevalieri could produce pullulan in similar amounts to A. pullulans. Therefore, in future, this fungus could also be used for commercial pullulan production, because it is neither polymorphic nor melanin producing, hence its handling during pullulan fermentation will be easier and more economical.     

Optimization of pH for high molecular weight pullulan

Summary Pullulan is a polysaccharide produced by Aureobasidium pullulans. In this study, the effect of pH on the molecular weight of pullulan was investigated. High concentration of pullulan was obtained when initial pH was 6. Pullulan having molecular weight of 500,000–600,000 was produced at initial pH of 3.0, while pullulan with molecular weight of 200,000–300,000 was produced at pH above 4.5. To obtain high molecular weight pullulan with high concentration, pH was initially controlled at pH 6, followed by pH shift from pH 6 to pH 3. Transition of pH at 2 days of fermentation was observed to be optimum. Higher molecular weight pullulan was also obtained when sucrose concentration was 50 g/l compared to the result obtained at initial sucrose concentration of 20 g/l. Sucrose concentration and pH of the fermentation broth seem to be important parameters in obtaining high molecular weight of pullulan.     

High pullulan yield is related to low UDP-glucose level and high pullulan-related synthases activity inAureobasidium pullulans Y68

Effects of different pH and carbon sources on pullulan production, UDP-glucose level and pullulan-related synthases activity inAureobasidium pullulans Y68 were examined. It was found that more pullulan was produced when the yeast strain was grown in the medium with initial pH 7.0 than when it was grown in the same medium with constant pH 6.0. The results also show that higher pullulan yield was obtained when the cells were grown in the medium containing glucose than when they were cultivated in the medium supplementing other carbon sources. Our results demonstrate that the more pullulan was synthesized, the less UDP-glucose was left in the cells ofA. pullulans Y68. However, it was observed that more pullulan was synthesized; the cells had higher pullulan-related synthase activity. Therefore, high pullulan yield was related to low UDP-glucose level and high pullulan-related synthases activity inAureobasidium pullulans Y68.
