An enzymatic, NAD(H)-dependent process for the efficient production of D-mannitol from D-fructose as one single product is described and optimized with respect to productivity at high substrate conversion. Stereospecific reduction of D-fructose is catalyzed by recombinant mannitol dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas fluorescens DSM 50106, overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Regeneration of NADH is accomplished by formate dehydrogenase-mediated oxidation of formate into CO2, thus avoiding byproduct formation and yielding total turnover numbers for the coenzyme of approximately 1000 for a single round of D-fructose conversion. In optimized batchwise reduction of D-fructose, a D-mannitol productivity of 2.25 g/(L h) was obtained for a final product concentration of 72g/L and a D-fructose conversion of 80%. D-Mannitol was crystallized from the ultrafiltered product solution in 97% purity and 85% recovery, thus also allowing reuse of enzymes for repeated batchwise production of D-mann!itol!. 相似文献
A novel oxidation of D-pentonates to 4-keto-D-pentonates was analyzed with Gluconobacter thailandicus NBRC 3258. D-Pentonate 4-dehydrogenase activity in the membrane fraction was readily inactivated by EDTA and it was reactivated by the addition of PQQ and Ca2+. D-Pentonate 4-dehydrogenase was purified to two different subunits, 80 and 14 kDa. The absorption spectrum of the purified enzyme showed no typical absorbance over the visible regions. The enzyme oxidized D-pentonates to 4-keto-D-pentonates at the optimum pH of 4.0. In addition, the enzyme oxidized D-fructose to 5-keto-D-fructose, D-psicose to 5-keto-D-psicose, including the other polyols such as, glycerol, D-ribitol, D-arabitol, and D-sorbitol. Thus, D-pentonate 4-dehydrogenase was found to be identical with glycerol dehydrogenase (GLDH), a major polyol dehydrogenase in Gluconobacter species. The reaction versatility of quinoprotein GLDH was notified in this study. 相似文献
This study aimed to screen, characterize, and annotate the genome along with the comparison of GABA synthesis genes presented in lactic acid bacteria (LAB).
Results
Thirty-five LAB isolates from fermented foods were screened for GABA production using thin-layer chromatography (TLC). Fifteen isolates produced GABA ranging from 0.07 to 22.94 g/L. Based on their GTG5 profiles, phenotypic, and genotypic characteristics, isolates LSI1-1, LSI1-5, LSI2-1, LSI2-2, LSI2-3, LSI2-5, and LSM3-1-4 were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum subsp. plantarum; isolate LSM1-4 was Lactobacillus argentoratensis; isolates CAB1-2, CAB1-5, CAB1-7, and LSI1-4 were Lactobacillus pentosus; and CAB1-1, LSM3-1-1 and LSM3-2-3 were Lactobacillus fermentum. Strains LSI2-1 and CAB1-7 from pickled vegetables were selected for genome analysis. The gadA gene (1410 bp, 470aa) was encountered in GABA production of both strains and no other glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) genes were found in the genomes when compared with other LAB strains. The presence of gadA is evidence for GABA production. Strains LSI2-1 and CAB1-7 produced 22.94 g/L and 11.59 g/L of GABA in GYP broth supplemented with 3% (w/v) MSG at 30 °C for 72 h, respectively.
Conclusions
Our report highlights the characterization of LAB and GABA production of L. plantarum LSI2-1 strain with its GABA synthesis gene.

The aim of this study was to prove that Terrilactibacillus laevilacticus SK5-6, a novel D-lactate producer, exhibited a good fermentation performance comparing to the reference D-lactate producer Sporolactobacillus sp.
Methods
Glucose bioconversion for D-lactate production and the activity of five key enzymes including phosphofructokinase (PFK), pyruvate kinase (PYK), D-lactate dehydrogenase (D-LDH), L-lactate dehydrogenase (L-LDH), and lactate isomerase (LI) were investigated in the cultivation of T. laevilacticus SK5–6 and S. laevolacticus 0361T.
Results
T. laevilacticus SK5–6 produced D-lactate at higher yield, productivity, and optical purity compared with S. laevolacticus 0361T. T. laevilacticus SK5–6, the catalase-positive isolate, simultaneously grew and produced D-lactate without lag phase while delayed growth and D-lactate production were observed in the culture of S. laevolacticus 0361T. The higher production of D-lactate in T. laevilacticus SK5–6 was due to the higher growth rate and the higher specific activities of the key enzymes observed at the early stage of the fermentation. The low isomerization activity was responsible for the high optical purity of D-lactate in the cultivation of T. laevilacticus SK5–6.
Conclusion
The lowest specific activity of PFK following by PYK and D/L-LDHs, respectively, indicated that the conversion of fructose-6-phosphate was the rate limiting step. Under the well-optimized conditions, the activation of D/L-LDHs by fructose-1,6-phosphate and ATP regeneration by PYK drove glucose bioconversion toward D-lactate. The optical purity of D-lactate was controlled by D/L-LDHs and the activation of isomerases. High D-LDH with limited isomerase activity was preferable during the fermentation as it assured the high optical purity.
tert-Butyl (3R,5S)-6-chloro-3,5-dihydroxyhexanoate ((3R,5S)-CDHH) is an important chiral intermediate for the synthesis of rosuvastatin. The biotechnological production of (3R,5S)-CDHH is catalyzed from tert-butyl (S)-6-chloro-5-hydroxy-3-oxohexanoate ((S)-CHOH) by a carbonyl reductase, and this synthetic pathway is becoming a primary route for (3R,5S)-CDHH production due to its high enantioselectivity, mild reaction conditions, low cost, process safety, and environmental friendship. However, the requirement of the pyridine nucleotide cofactors, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) or reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) limits its economic flexibility. In the present study, a recombinant Escherichia coli strain harboring carbonyl reductase R9M and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) was constructed with high carbonyl reduction activity and cofactor regeneration efficiency. The recombinant E. coli cells were applied for the efficient production of (3R,5S)-CDHH with a substrate conversion of 98.8%, a yield of 95.6% and an enantiomeric excess (e.e.) of >99.0% under 350 g/L of (S)-CHOH after 12 hr reaction. A substrate fed-batch strategy was further employed to increase the substrate concentration to 400 g/L resulting in an enhanced product yield to 98.5% after 12 hr reaction in a 1 L bioreactor. Meanwhile, the space–time yield was 1,182.3 g L−1 day−1, which was the highest value ever reported by a coupled system of carbonyl reductase and glucose dehydrogenase. 相似文献
Abstract Fungi of the Trichoderma species are valued industrial enzymes in support of the ‘zero-waste’ technology to convert agro-industrial biomass into valuable products, i.e. nanocellulose (NC). In this study, an in silico approach using substrate docking and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation was used to predict the order of which the multilayers of cellulosic polymers, i.e. lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose in oil palm leaves (OPL) are degraded by fungal enzymes, endocellulase and exocellulase. The study aimed to establish the catalytic tendencies of the enzymes to optimally degrade the cellulosic components of OPL for high yield production of NC. Energy minimized endocellulase and exocellulase models revealed satisfactory scores of PROCHECK (90.0% and 91.2%), Verify3D (97.23% and 98.85%) and ERRAT (95.24% and 91.00%) assessments. Active site prediction by blind docking, COACH meta-server and multiple sequence alignment indicated the catalytic triads for endocellulase and exocellulase were Ser116–His205–Glu249 and Ser382–Arg124–Asp385, respectively. Binding energy of endocellulase docked with hemicellulose (?6.0?kcal mol?1) was the most favourable followed by lignin (?5.6?kcal mol?1) and cellulose (?4.4?kcal mol?1). Exocellulase, contrarily, bonded favorably with lignin (?8.7?kcal mol?1), closely followed by cellulose (?8.5?kcal mol?1) and hemicellulose (?8.4?kcal mol?1). MDs simulations showed that interactions of complexes, endocellulase–hemicellulose and the exocellulase–cellulose being the most stable. Thus, the findings of the study successfully identified the specific actions of sugar-acting enzymes for NC production. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma 相似文献
An in vivo system was developed for the biotransformation of D-fructose into D-mannitol by the expression of the gene mdh encoding mannitol dehydrogenase (MDH) from Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides ATCC12291 in Bacillus megaterium. The NADH reduction equivalents necessary for MDH activity were regenerated via the oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide by coexpression of the gene fdh encoding Mycobacterium vaccae N10 formate dehydrogenase (FDH). High-level protein production of MDH in B. megaterium required the adaptation of the corresponding ribosome binding site. The fdh gene was adapted to B. megaterium codon usage via complete chemical gene synthesis. Recombinant B. megaterium produced up to 10.60 g/L D-mannitol at the shaking flask scale. Whole cell biotransformation in a fed-batch bioreactor increased D-mannitol concentration to 22.00 g/L at a specific productivity of 0.32 g D-mannitol (gram cell dry weight)(-1) h(-1) and a D-mannitol yield of 0.91 mol/mol. The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(H)) pool of the B. megaterium producing D-mannitol remained stable during biotransformation. Intra- and extracellular pH adjusted itself to a value of 6.5 and remained constant during the process. Data integration revealed that substrate uptake was the limiting factor of the overall biotransformation. The information obtained identified B. megaterium as a useful production host for D-mannitol using a resting cell biotransformation approach. 相似文献
Mycobacterium smegmatis transformed D-xylulose to xylitol in washed cell reactions under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The yield of xylitol reached about 70% in anaerobic conditions (in N2) by cells grown on media containing xylitol or D-mannitol. Cells immobilized with Ca-alginate had almost the same activity of xylitol production as washed cells.Xylitol was produced from D-xylose using commercial immobilized D-xylose isomerase from Bacillus coagulans and immobilized cells of M. smegmatis. From 10 g of D-xylose, 4 g of xylitol was produced and 5 g of D-xylose remained in the reaction mixture; no D-xylulose was detected. 相似文献
Ribulose 5-phosphate is a precursor for riboflavin biosynthesis. Alteration of carbon flow into the pentose phosphate pathway will affect the availability of ribulose 5-phosphate and the riboflavin yield. We have modulated carbon flow in Bacillus subtilis through the gluconate bypass by over-expression of glucose dehydrogenase under the control of the constitutively expressed P43 promoter. Over-expression of glucose dehydrogenase resulted in low acid production (acetate and pyruvate). The substantial reduction in acid production is accompanied by increased riboflavin production and an increased rate of growth while glucose consumption remained unchanged. Metabolic analysis indicated that over-expression of glucose dehydrogenase increased intracellular pool of ribulose 5-phosphate. The high concentrations of ribulose 5-phosphate could explain the increased riboflavin production. 相似文献
Several microbial cultures were screened for the ability to catalyse the reduction of N-(4-(1-oxo-2-chloroacetyl ethyl) phenyl methane sulfonamide (1). The chiral intermediate (+)N-(4-(1-hydroxy-2-chloroethyl) phenyl methane sulfonamide (2) was prepared by the stereoselective microbial reduction of the parent ketone 1. Compound 2 is a potential chiral intermediate for synthesis of 4-(2-isopropylamino-1-hydroxyethyl) phenyl methanesulfonanilide (d-sotalol), a beta-receptor antagonist. Microorganisms from the genera Rhodococcus, Nocardia, and Hansenula reduced 1 to 2. A reaction yield of >50% and optical purities of >90% were obtained. The best strain (H.polymorpha ATCC 26012) effectively reduced compound 1 to compound 2 in 95% reaction yield and 99% optical purity. Compound 2 (8.2 g) was isolated from a 3-1 preparative batch in 68% overall yield. Isolated compound 2 had a specific rotation of +20° (CH2Cl2, C-1), an optical purity of 99.5%, and a chemical purity of 97% as analyzed by gas chromatography and HPLC. The nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectra of compound 2 prepared by bioreduction and a standard chemical sample of 2 were virtually identical. Cell extracts of H. polymorpha in the presence of glucose dehydrogenase, glucose and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD +) catalyzed the reduction of 1 to 2 with 98% reaction yield and resulted in an optical purity of 99.4%.

The production of α-ketoglutarate, adenine, thuringiensin production rate and thuringiensin yield on glucose consumed increased by 22%, 36%,
40% and 40%, respectively, in presence of 2 g citrate/l. However, citrate decreased pyruvate production, poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production rate and PHB yield by 62%, 31% and 45%, respectively. The activities of pyruvate kinase
and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were 36%–45% lower and 50%–120% higher than those of the control, respectively. The
results suggest that citrate regulated the carbon flux to synthesis of adenine present in thuringiensin with a higher efficiency
of utilization of glucose by decreasing PHB synthesis. 相似文献
1,2,4‐Butanetriol (BT) is used as a precursor for the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and the energetic plasticizer 1,2,4‐butanetriol trinitrate. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, BT is biosynthesized from xylose via heterologous four enzymatic reactions catalyzed by xylose dehydrogenase, xylonate dehydratase, 2‐ketoacid decarboxylase, and alcohol dehydrogenase. We here aimed to improve the BT yield in S. cerevisiae by genetic engineering. First, the amount of the key intermediate 2‐keto‐3‐deoxy‐xylonate as described previously was successfully reduced in 41% by multiple integrations of Lactococcus lactis 2‐ketoacid decarboxylase gene kdcA into the yeast genome. Since the heterologous BT synthetic pathway is independent of yeast native metabolism, this manipulation has led to NADH/NADPH imbalance and deficiency during BT production. Overexpression of the NADH kinase POS5Δ17 lacking the mitochondrial targeting sequence to relieve NADH/NADPH imbalance resulted in the BT titer of 2.2 g/L (31% molar yield). Feeding low concentrations of glucose and xylose to support the supply of NADH resulted in BT titer of 6.6 g/L with (57% molar yield). Collectively, improving the NADH/NADPH ratio and supply from glucose are essential for the construction of a xylose pathway, such as the BT synthetic pathway, independent of native yeast metabolism. 相似文献
AbstractTo develop an efficient biocatalyst to produce optically active (S)-phenyl ethanediol (PED), a carbonyl reductase SCRII and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase were coexpressed intracellularly in Pichia pastoris. The recombinant enzyme PpSCRII was purified with a specific activity of 8.32 U mg?1, over 36% higher than that of Escherichia coli SCRII. The recombinant cells P. pastoris/SCRIIG catalyzed the reduction of 2-hydroxyacetophenone to give (S)-PED with optical purity of >99% in a yield of 96.3%. The yield was improved by 19.9% and 25.7% over E. coli BL21/SCRII and Candida parapsilosis, respectively, when the reaction duration was shorted from 48 h to 24 h. When using glucose 50 g L?1 as co-substrate, these P. pastoris/SCRIIG cells could be reused ten times and the optical purity and yield of (S)-PED kept at >99% enantiomeric excess and >85%, respectively. 相似文献
