RESUMO

Calceorioside B, a multifunctional phenylethanol glycosides (PhGs) derivative, exhibits a variety of notable properties, such as antithrombotic, anti-tumorigenic, anti-neocoronavirus, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects. However, the large-scale production of calceorioside B is routinely restricted by its existence as an intermediary compound derived from plants, and still unachieved through excellent and activity chemical synthesis. Here, a total of 51 fungal endophytes were isolated from four PhGs-producing plants, and endophyte Simplicillium sinense EFF1 from Echinacea purpurea was identified with the ability to de-rhamnosing isoacteoside to generate calceorioside B. According to the RNA-transcription of EFF1 under the various substrates, a key gene CL1206.Contig2 that undertakes the hydrolysis function was screened out and charactered by heterologous expression. The sequence alignment, phylogenetic tree construction and substrate specificity analysis revealed that CL1206 was a novel α-L-rhamnosidase that belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase family 78 (GH78). The optimum catalytic conditions for CL1206 were at pH 6.5 and 55 °C. Finally, the enzyme-catalyzed approach to produce calceorioside B from 50 % crude isoacteoside extract was explored and optimized, with the maximum conversion rate reaching 69.42 % and the average producing rate reaching 0.37 g-1.L-1.h-1, which offered a great biocatalyst for potential industrial calceorioside B production. This is the first case for microorganism and rhamnosidase to show the hydrolysis ability to caffeic acid-modified PhGs.

RESUMO

Cistanche deserticola is a precious Chinese medicinal material with extremely high health care and medicinal value. In recent years, the frequent occurrence of stem rot has led to reduced or even no harvests of C. deserticola. The unstandardized use of farm chemicals in the prevention and control processes has resulted in excessive chemical residues, threatening the fragile desert ecological environment. Therefore, it is urgent to explore safe and efficient prevention and control technologies. Biocontrol agents, with the advantages of safety and environment-friendliness, would be an important idea. The isolation, screening and identification of pathogens and antagonistic endophytic bacteria are always the primary basis. In this study, three novel pathogens causing C. deserticola stem rot were isolated, identified and pathogenicity tested, namely Fusarium solani CPF1, F. proliferatum CPF2, and F. oxysporum CPF3. For the first time, the endophytic bacteria in C. deserticola were isolated and identified, of which 37 strains were obtained. Through dual culture assay, evaluation experiment and tissue culture verification, a biocontrol candidate strain Bacillus atrophaeus CE6 with outstanding control effect on the stem rot was screened out. In the tissue culture system, CE6 showed excellent control effect against F. solani and F. oxysporum, with the control efficacies reaching 97.2% and 95.8%, respectively, indicating its great potential for application in the production. This study is of great significance for the biocontrol of plant stem rot and improvement of the yield and quality of C. deserticola.

RESUMO

Oleanolic acid and its derivatives are widely used in the pharmaceutical, agricultural, cosmetic and food industries. Previous studies have shown that oleanolic acid production levels in engineered cell factories are low, which is why oleanolic acid is still widely extracted from traditional medicinal plants. To construct a highly efficient oleanolic acid production strain, rate-limiting steps were regulated by inducible promoters and the expression of key genes in the oleanolic acid synthetic pathway was enhanced. Subsequently, precursor pool expansion, pathway refactoring and diploid construction were considered to harmonize cell growth and oleanolic acid production. The multi-strategy combination promoted oleanolic acid production of up to 4.07 g/L in a 100 L bioreactor, which was the highest level reported.

RESUMO

Indole is traditionally known as a metabolite of l-tryptophan and now as an important signaling molecule in bacteria, however, the understanding of its upstream synthesis regulation is very limited. Pantoea ananatis YJ76, a predominant diazotrophic endophyte isolated from rice (Oryza sativa), can produce indole to regulate various physiological and biochemical behaviors. We constructed a mutant library of YJ76 using the mTn5 transposon insertion mutation method, from which an indole-deficient mutant was screened out. Via high-efficiency thermal asymmetric interlaced PCR (hiTAIL-PCR), the transposon was determined to be inserted in a gene (RefSeq: WP014605468.1) of unknown function that is highly conserved at the intraspecific level. Bioinformatics analysis implied that the protein (Protein ID: WP089517194.1) encoded by the mutant gene is most likely to be a new orphan substrate-binding protein (SBP) for amino acid ABC transporters. Amino acid supplement cultivation experiments and surface plasmon resonance revealed that the protein could bind to l-serine (KD = 6.149 × 10-5 M). Therefore, the SBP was named as SerBP. This is the first case that a SBP responds to l-serine ABC transports. As a precursor of indole synthesis, the transmembrane transported l-serine was directly correlated with indole signal production and the mutation of serBP gene weakened the resistance of YJ76 to antibiotics, alkali, heavy metals, and starvation. This study provided a new paradigm for exploring the upstream regulatory pathway for indole synthesis of bacteria.
