Aims: To analyse the effects of plipastatin operon disruption and constitutive expression of surfactin operon in Bacillus subtilis 168 on surfactin productivity, in vitro invasive growth and antagonism against fungi. Methods and Results: The srfA native promoter was replaced by the constitutive promoter PrepU in B. subtilis 168 after integration of a functional sfp gene. Moreover, the plipastatin synthesis was further disrupted in the B. subtilis 168 derivatives. In liquid media, an earlier and higher expression of PrepU, than that found with PsrfA, led to a specific surfactin production fivefold higher after 6 h of culture. On solid media, not only the invasive growth and the haemolytic activity but also the antifungal activity of the constitutive strains were improved when compared to the parental strain BBG111. As expected, the disruption of the plipastatin operon strongly reduced in vitro antifungal properties but, interestingly, enhanced specific surfactin production (1·47 g g?1 of biomass), spreading behaviour and haemolytic activity of the strains. Conclusions: This work demonstrates for the first time the interdependency of surfactin and plipastatin regarding their biosynthesis as well as their influence on the biological activities of the producing strain. Significance and Impact of the Study: The constitutive overproduction of surfactin enhances the invasive growth and the in vitro antagonistic activity of the mutant strain. Both properties are known to play an important role in the biocontrol of plant diseases. Plipastatin operon disruption increases the surfactin productivity of mutant strains. These mutants are interesting for use in continuous bioprocesses for surfactin production or in bioremediation. 相似文献

Aims
To identify and screen dominant Bacillus spp. strains isolated from Bikalga, fermented seeds of Hibiscus sabdariffa for their antimicrobial activities in brain heart infusion (BHI) medium and in a H. sabdariffa seed‐based medium. Further, to characterize the antimicrobial substances produced.Methods and Results
The strains were identified by gyrB gene sequencing and phenotypic tests as B. amyloliquefaciens ssp. plantarum. Their antimicrobial activity was determined by the agar spot and well assay, being inhibitory to a wide range of Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Antimicrobial activity against Bacillus cereus was produced in H. sabdariffa seed‐based medium. PCR results revealed that the isolates have potential for the lipopeptides iturin, fengycin, surfactin, the polyketides difficidin, macrolactin, bacillaene and the dipeptide bacilysin production. Ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography‐time of flight mass spectrometry analysis of antimicrobial substance produced in BHI broth allowed identification of iturin, fengycin and surfactin.Conclusions
The Bacillus amyloliquefaciens ssp. plantarum exhibited broad‐spectrum antifungal and antibacterial properties. They produced several lipopeptide antibiotics and showed good potential for biological control of Bikalga.Significance and Impact of the Study
Pathogenic bacteria often occur in spontaneous food fermentations. This is the first report to identify indigenous B. amyloliquefaciens ssp. plantarum strains as potential protective starter cultures for safeguarding Bikalga. 相似文献3.
Aims
To investigate the effects of temperature and medium composition on growth/aflatoxin inhibitory activities of terpenoids gossypol, gossypolone and apogossypolone against Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus.Methods and Results
The compounds were tested at a concentration of 100 μg ml?1 in a Czapek Dox (Czapek) agar medium at 25, 31 and 37°C. Increased incubation temperature marginally increased growth inhibition caused by these compounds, but reduced the aflatoxin inhibition effected by gossypol. Gossypolone and apogossypolone retained good aflatoxin inhibitory activity against A. flavus and A. parasiticus at higher incubation temperatures. However, increased temperature also significantly reduced aflatoxin production in control cultures. The effects of the terpenoids on fungal growth and aflatoxin production against the same fungi were also determined in Czapek, Czapek with a protein/amino acid addendum and yeast extract sucrose (YES) media. Growth of these fungi in the protein‐supplemented Czapek medium or in the YES medium greatly reduced the growth inhibition effects of the terpenoids. Apogossypolone displayed strong anti‐aflatoxigenic activity in the Czapek medium, but this activity was significantly reduced in the protein‐amended Czapek and YES media. Gossypol, which displayed little to no aflatoxin inhibitory activity in the Czapek medium, did yield significant anti‐aflatoxigenic activity in the YES medium.Conclusions
Incubation temperature and media composition are important parameters involved in the regulation of aflatoxin production in A. flavus and A. parasiticus. These parameters also affect the potency of growth and aflatoxin inhibitory activities of these gossypol‐related compounds against aflatoxigenic fungi.Significance and Impact of the Study
Studies utilizing gossypol‐related compounds as inhibitory agents of biological activities should be interpreted with caution due to compound interaction with multiple components of the test system, especially serum proteins. 相似文献4.

In the paper, the sensitivity of Penicillium notatum to surfactin and iturin was determined, and the optimization of the antifungal of surfactin and iturin to Penicillium notatum in syrup of peach by a response surface methodology (RSM) was researched. Results demonstrated that Penicillium notatum was sensitive to them, whose minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was 62.5 and 31.25 μg ml−1 respectively. In the optimization experiment, when the temperature was 2.37°C, the action time was 25.21 h, and the concentration
(surfactin/iturin weight ratio 1:1) was 40.26 μg ml−1, Penicillium notatum could be sterilized by 5 orders of magnitude. All the results in the experiment indicated surfactin and iturin could kill
remarkably Penicillium notatum in syrup of peach. 相似文献

In this paper, the sterilization of surfactin and fengycin to Bacillus cereus was observed, and the optimization of the inactivation of surfactin and fengycin to spores of B. cereus by a response surface methodology was studied. Results showed that surfactin and fengycin had high sterilization to B. cereus, whose minimal inhibitory concentration was 31.25 μM and 62.5 μM respectively. The optimization result indicated that spores
of B. cereus could be inactivated by two orders of magnitude when the temperature was 20.41°C, the action time was 21.13 h, and the concentration
(surfactin/fengycin molar ratio 1:1) was 54.20 μM. 相似文献

Two-step synthesis of fatty acid ethyl ester from soybean oil catalyzed by <Emphasis Type="Italic">Yarrowia lipolytica</Emphasis> lipase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Background
Enzymatic biodiesel production by transesterification in solvent media has been investigated intensively, but glycerol, as a by-product, could block the immobilized enzyme and excess n-hexane, as a solution aid, would reduce the productivity of the enzyme. Esterification, a solvent-free and no-glycerol-release system for biodiesel production, has been developed, and two-step catalysis of soybean oil, hydrolysis followed by esterification, with Yarrowia lipolytica lipase is reported in this paper. 相似文献7.
Background
Antibiotic resistance genes are widely used for selection of recombinant bacteria, but their use risks contributing to the spread of antibiotic resistance. In particular, the practice is inappropriate for some intrinsically resistant bacteria and in vaccine production, and costly for industrial scale production. Non-antibiotic systems are available, but require mutant host strains, defined media or expensive reagents. An unexplored concept is over-expression of a host essential gene to enable selection in the presence of a chemical inhibitor of the gene product. To test this idea in E. coli, we used the growth essential target gene fabI as the plasmid-borne marker and the biocide triclosan as the selective agent. 相似文献8.

Aim
Taking into account that a novel strain of Bacillus megaterium was isolated from Uyuni salt lake (Bolivia) in a previous work, the objectives of this new study were to determine the maximal Poly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate production potential of B. megaterium strain uyuni S29 in an industrial conventional media, the possibility that the strain accumulates different types of polyhydroxyalkanoates, the cellular morphology during the biosynthesis process and the characterization of the produced biopolymers.Methods and Results
The micro‐organism was first tested in a 3‐L bioreactor obtaining a high specific growth rate of 1·64 h?1. A second fed‐batch experiment was carried out in shaking flasks, reaching up to 70% PHB of cell dry mass. The biosynthesized polymers were extracted by two different extraction procedures and characterized. The results showed that all of them were PHB with thermal properties different to the conventional PHB. The micrographs taken by TEM show the different cell morphology during the fermentation process.Conclusions
In this previous study, the strain not only grew properly in the industrial conditions proposed without spore formation, but also produced and accumulated a large content of PHB, never reached before for its genus. Therefore, if the culture conditions can be optimized, the biopolymer production could be increased.Significance and Impact of the Study
The impact of the study has related to the area of the biomaterials and their production. The study provides new data related to the high production of PHB from the wild novel strain B. megaterium uyuni S29, the highest polymer accumulation for the genus Bacillus without spores formation. 相似文献9.

Bacillus velezensis B006 is a biocontrol agent which functions through effective colonization and surfactin production. To reveal the surfactin-producing mechanism, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry based untargeted metabolomics was performed to compare the metabolite profiles of strain B006 grown in industrial media M3 and M4. Based on the statistical and pathway topology analyses, a total of 31 metabolites with a fold change of less than ??1.0 were screened as the significantly altered metabolites, which distributed in 15 metabolic pathways. Fourteen amino acids involving in the metabolisms of alanine/aspartate/glutamate, glycine/serine/threonine, arginine/proline, glutathione/cysteine/methionine and valine/leucine/isoleucine as well as succinic acid in TCA cycle were identified to be the hub metabolites. Aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, glycerolipid metabolism, and pantothenate/CoA biosynthesis also contributed to surfactin production. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to investigate the metabolic pathways of B. velezensis on surfactin production, and will benefit the optimization of commercial fermentation for higher surfactin yield. 相似文献

The surfactin production genetic locus (sfp) is responsible for the ability of Bacillus subtilis to produce the lipopeptide biosurfactant, surfactin. This report demonstrates the utility of using PCR of the sfp gene as a means of identifying Bacillus species that produce surfactin. We carried out a hemolysis zone assay, quantitative HPLC and NMR in parallel to ensure that the PCR provided correct results. PCR analyses were performed for the sfp gene on 15 standard strains and 20 field-collected Bacillus spp. isolates native to Taiwan. Among the 15 standard strains, surfactin was produced by seven strains of B. subtilis and two closely related species, B. amyloliquefaciens B128 and B. circulans ATCC 4513. Of the 20 field-collected Bacillus spp. isolates; 16 strains yielded surfactin- positive results with PCR and HPLC. A good correlation was observed. Within the 16 field isolates, B. amyloliquefaciens S13 (452.5 mg/L) and B. subtilis S15 (125.6 mg/L) had high productivity of surfactin. The technique is valuable for finding out potential good yields of surfactin-producing strains. The PCR method we used could also be used to find different species or genera containing homologous genes. This is the first report of the detection of surfactin production by B. amyloliquefaciens and B. circulans based on PCR screening. 相似文献

Background
By definition, amyloplasts are plastids specialized for starch production. However, a proteomic study of amyloplasts isolated from wheat (Triticum aestivum Butte 86) endosperm at 10 days after anthesis (DPA) detected enzymes from many other metabolic and biosynthetic pathways. To better understand the role of amyloplasts in food production, the data from that study were evaluated in detail and an amyloplast metabolic map was outlined. 相似文献13.

The aim of this work was to determine the in vitro effect of the mixture between the lipopeptide surfactin, synthesized by
Bacillus subtilis C4 (strain isolated from honey) and the most active vegetal extract from Achyrocline satureioides, a traditional medicinal plant, on local strains of Paenibacillus larvae, the agent of American Foulbrood in honeybees. Five P. larvae strains isolated in Córdoba, Argentina, were phenotypically characterized. These and 12 other P. larvae strains from different regions of Argentina were analysed. The antimicrobial activities of the essential oil, hexane (HE)
and benzene extracts from A. satureioides were assessed against P. larvae and the HE showed the highest anti-P. larvae activity. A combination of the biosurfactant surfactin, produced by B. subtilis C4, and the HE of A. satureioides revealed a synergistic action on P. larvae. The effective surfactin concentration in the mixture decreased from 32 to 1 μg ml−1 and the HE concentration from 32 to 4 μg ml−1, values similar or equal to minimal inhibitory concentrations observed for oxytetracycline. The fractional inhibitory concentration
index confirmed synergism in 4 strains and partial synergism in one strain. The combination of surfactin synthesized by B. subtilis C4 and the HE from A. satureioides could be a natural alternative to help beekeepers to combat the American foulbrood agent P. larvae. 相似文献

In this paper, the sterilization of surfactin and iturin to Salmonella enteritidis was observed, and the optimization of the inactivation of surfactin and iturin to S. enteritidis in meat by a response surface methodology was studied. Results showed that surfactin and iturin had high sterilization to
S. enteritidis, whose minimal inhibitory concentration was 6.25 and 12.50 μM respectively. The optimization result indicated that S. enteritidis could be inactivated by five orders of magnitude when the temperature was 4.83°C, the action time was 17.20 h, and the concentration
(surfactin/iturin molar ratio 1:2) was 0.69 MIC. 相似文献

Background
We have previously reported that altered culture conditions (a broth media with shaking) could induce a strain of Helicobacter pylori to assume a long spiral morphology resembling that described for Helicobacter heilmannii. The present study was initiated to determine if other strains of H. pylori could be induced to assume that morphology and if doing so would alter the expression of immunodominant proteins. 相似文献16.

Background
Damask roses (Rosa damascena Mill.) are mainly used for essential oil production. Previous studies have indicated that all production material in Bulgaria and Turkey consists of only one genotype. Nine polymorphic microsatellite markers were used to analyze the genetic diversity of 40 accessions of R. damascena collected across major and minor rose oil production areas in Iran. 相似文献17.
Aims
To increase the l ‐isoleucine production in Corynebacterium glutamicum by overexpressing the global regulator Lrp and the two‐component export system BrnFE.Methods and Results
The brnFE operon and the lrp gene were cloned into the shuttle vector pDXW‐8 individually or in combination. The constructed plasmids were transformed into an l ‐isoleucine‐producing strain C. glutamicum JHI3‐156, and the l ‐isoleucine production in these different strains was analysed and compared. More l ‐isoleucine was produced when only Lrp was expressed than when only BrnFE was expressed. Significant increase in l ‐isoleucine production was observed when Lrp and BrnFE were expressed in combination. Compared to the control strain, l ‐isoleucine production in JHI3‐156/pDXW‐8‐lrp‐brnFE increased 63% in flask cultivation, and the specific yield of l ‐isoleucine increased 72% in fed‐batch fermentation.Conclusions
Both Lrp and BrnFE are important to enhance the l ‐isoleucine production in C. glutamicum.Significance and Impact of the Study
The results provide useful information to enhance l ‐isoleucine or other branched‐chain amino acid production in C. glutamicum. 相似文献18.

Surfactin and fengycin are lipopeptide biosurfactants produced by Bacillus subtilis. This work describes for the first time the use of bubbleless bioreactors for the production of these lipopeptides by B. subtilis ATCC 21332 with aeration by a hollow fiber membrane air–liquid contactor to prevent foam formation. Three different configurations
were tested: external aeration module made from either polyethersulfone (reactor BB1) or polypropylene (reactor BB2) and a
submerged module in polypropylene (reactor BB3). Bacterial growth, glucose consumption, lipopeptide production, and oxygen
uptake rate were monitored during the culture in the bioreactors. For all the tested membranes, the bioreactors were of satisfactory
bacterial growth and lipopeptide production. In the three configurations, surfactin production related to the culture volume
was in the same range: 242, 230, and 188 mg l−1 for BB1, BB2, and BB3, respectively. Interestingly, high differences were observed for fengycin production: 47 mg l−1 for BB1, 207 mg l−1 for BB2, and 393 mg l−1 for BB3. A significant proportion of surfactin was adsorbed on the membranes and reduced the volumetric oxygen mass transfer
coefficient. The degree of adsorption depended on both the material and the structure of the membrane and was higher with
the submerged polypropylene membrane. 相似文献

Aims
To investigate the effect of support and growth medium (GM) on Pleurotus ostreatus biofilm production, specific metabolic activity (SMA) and ultrastructure.Methods and Results
Biofilms were developed on membranes covering a broad range of surface properties and, due to the applicative implications of mixed biofilms, on standard bacterial GM in stationary and shaken culture. Hydrophilic (glass fibre, Duran glass and hydroxyapatite) and mild hydrophobic (polyurethane, stainless steel, polycarbonate, nylon) supports were more adequate for biofilm attachment than the hydrophobic Teflon. Among the GM, sucrose–asparagine (SA) was more conducive to biofilm production than Luria–Bertani and M9. GM was more influential than support type on biofilm ultrastructure, and a high compactness was evident in biofilms developed on SA. Biofilms on Duran glass were more efficient than planktonic cultures in olive‐mill wastewater treatment.Conclusions
The main effects of support and GM variables and their binary interactions on both biofilm production and SMA were all highly significant (P < 0·001): thus, the magnitude of the effect of each variable strongly depended on the level of the other one.Significance and Impact of the Study
There is a lack of basic information regarding physiology and ultrastructure of P. ostreatus biofilms. To our knowledge, this is the first attempt to fill this gap, thus representing a basis for future studies. 相似文献20.
