  • Structural and biochemical analysis of family 92 carbohydrate-binding modules uncovers multivalent binding to β-glucans

    • Carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) are non-catalytic proteins found appended to carbohydrate-active enzymes. Soil and marine bacteria secrete such enzymes to scavenge nutrition, and they often use CBMs to improve reaction rates and retention of released sugars. Here we present a structural and functional analysis of the recently established CBM family 92. All proteins analysed bind preferentially to β−1,6-glucans. This contrasts with the diversity of predicted substrates among the enzymes attached to CBM92 domains. We present crystal structures for two proteins, and confirm by mutagenesis that tryptophan residues permit ligand binding at three distinct functional binding sites on each protein. Multivalent CBM families are uncommon, so the establishment and structural characterisation of CBM92 enriches the classification database and will facilitate functional prediction in future projects. We propose that CBM92 proteins may cross-link polysaccharides in nature, and might have use in novel strategies for enzyme immobilisation.

  • Family 92 carbohydrate-binding modules specific for β-1,6-glucans increase the thermostability of a bacterial chitinase
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Biochimie. - : Elsevier BV. - 0300-9084 .- 1638-6183. ; 212, s. 153-160

    • In biomass-processing industries there is a need for enzymes that can withstand high temperatures. Extensive research efforts have been dedicated to finding new thermostable enzymes as well as developing new means of stabilising existing enzymes. The attachment of a stable non-catalytic domain to an enzyme can, in some instances, protect a biocatalyst from thermal denaturation. Carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) are non-catalytic domains typically found appended to biomass-degrading or modifying enzymes, such as glycoside hydrolases (GHs). Most often, CBMs interact with the same polysaccharide as their enzyme partners, leading to an enhanced reaction rate via the promotion of enzyme-substrate interactions. Contradictory to this general concept, we show an example of a chitin-degrading enzyme from GH family 18 that is appended to two CBM domains from family 92, both of which bind preferentially to the non-substrate polysaccharide β-1,6-glucan. During chitin hydrolysis, the CBMs do not contribute to enzyme-substrate interactions but instead confer a 10–15 °C increase in enzyme thermal stability. We propose that CBM92 domains may have a natural enzyme stabilisation role in some cases, which may be relevant to enzyme design for high-temperature applications in biorefinery.

  • Measuring Enzyme Kinetics of Glycoside Hydrolases Using the 3, 5-Dinitrosalicylic Acid Assay
  • 2023. - 2
  • Ingår i: Carbohydrate-Protein Interactions. - New York : Springer Nature. ; 2657, s. 15-25
  • Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Use of the 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid reagent allows the simple, rapid quantification of reducing sugars. The method can be used for analysis of biological samples or in characterization of enzyme reactions, as new reducing ends are generated when a polysaccharide substrate undergoes hydrolytic cleavage. Presented here is an application of the method in measuring the kinetics of a glycoside hydrolase reaction, including the optimization of the DNSA reagent, and the production of a standard curve of absorbance versus sugar concentration.

  • A polysaccharide utilization locus from Chitinophaga pinensis simultaneously targets chitin and β-glucans found in fungal cell walls
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: mSphere. - : American Society for Microbiology. - 2379-5042.
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • In nature, complex carbohydrates are rarely found as pure isolated polysaccharides. Instead, bacteria in competitive environments are presented with glycans embedded in heterogeneous matrices such as plant or microbial cell walls. Members of the Bacteroidota phylum thrive in such ecosystems because they are efficient at extracting nutrients from complex substrates, secreting consortia of synergistic enzymes to release metabolizable sugars. Carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) are used to target enzymes to substrates, enhancing reaction rate and product release. Additionally, genome organizational tools like polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs) ensure that the appropriate set of enzymes is produced when needed. In this study, we show that the soil bacterium Chitinophaga pinensis uses a PUL and several CBMs to coordinate the activities of enzymes targeting two distinct polysaccharides found in fungal cell walls. We describe the enzymatic activities and carbohydrate-binding behaviors of components of the fungal cell wall utilization locus (FCWUL), which uses multiple chitinases and one β-1,3-glucanase to hydrolyze two different substrates. Unusually, one of the chitinases is appended to a β-glucan-binding CBM, implying targeting to a bulk cell wall substrate rather than to the specific polysaccharide being hydrolyzed. Based on our characterization of the PUL’s outer membrane sensor protein, we suggest that the FCWUL is activated by β-1,3-glucans, even though most of its enzymes are chitin-degrading. Our data showcase the complexity of polysaccharide deconstruction in nature and highlight an elegant solution for how multiple different glycans can be accessed using one enzymatic cascade.

  • Production of β-carotene by recombinant Escherichia coli with engineered whole mevalonate pathway in batch and fed-batch cultures
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1226-8372 .- 1976-3816. ; 14:5, s. 559-564
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Recombinant Escherichia coli engineered to contain the whole mevalonate pathway and foreign genes for β-carotene biosynthesis, was utilized for production of β-carotene in bioreactor cultures. Optimum culture conditions were established in batch and pH-stat fed-batch cultures to determine the optimal feeding strategy thereby improving production yield. The specific growth rate and volumetric productivity in batch cultures at 37°C were 1.7-fold and 2-fold higher, respectively, than those at 28°C. Glycerol was superior to glucose as a carbon source. Maximum β-carotene production (titer of 663 mg/L and overall volumetric productivity of 24.6 mg/L × h) resulted from the simultaneous addition of 500 g/L glycerol and 50 g/L yeast extract in pH-stat fed-batch culture.

  • Production of glucose 6-phosphate from a cellulosic feedstock in a one pot multi-enzyme synthesis
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology. - : Frontiers Media S.A.. - 2296-4185. ; 9
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Glucose 6-phosphate is the phosphorylated form of glucose and is used as a reagent in enzymatic assays. Current production occurs via a multi-step chemical synthesis. In this study we established a fully enzymatic route for the synthesis of glucose 6-phosphate from cellulose. As the enzymatic phosphorylation requires ATP as phosphoryl donor, the use of a cofactor regeneration system is required. We evaluated Escherichia coli glucokinase and Saccharomyces cerevisiae hexokinase (HK) for the phosphorylation reaction and Pseudomonas aeruginosa polyphosphate kinase 2 (PPK2) for ATP regeneration. All three enzymes were characterized in terms of temperature and pH optimum and the effects of substrates and products concentrations on enzymatic activities. After optimization of the conditions, we achieved a 85% conversion of glucose into glucose 6-phosphate using the HK/PPK2 activities within a 24 h reaction resulting in 12.56 g/l of glucose 6-phosphate. Finally, we demonstrated the glucose 6-phosphate formation from microcrystalline cellulose in a one-pot reaction comprising Aspergillus niger cellulase for glucose release and HK/PPK2 activities. We achieved a 77% conversion of released glucose into glucose 6-phosphate, however at the expense of a lower glucose 6-phosphate yield of 1.17 g/l. Overall, our study shows an alternative approach for synthesis of glucose 6-phosphate that can be used to valorize biomass derived cellulose.
