Phorbol ester degradation in Jatropha seedcake using white rot fungi.

ABSTRACT: White rot fungi are well known for their ability to degrade a wide range of xenobiotics due to their enzymatic systems. Therefore, the present investigation was aimed at screening ten different white rot fungi for degradation of phorbol esters from Jatropha seedcake (JSC). The JSC was fermented with pure cultures of white rot fungi for 20 days under solid state condition. All the white rot fungi tested exhibited degradation of phorbol ester during fermentation of JSC without adversely influencing the nutritional properties of the seedcake. Ganoderma lucidum and Trametes zonata were found to degrade phorbol ester in JSC to undetectable levels. This study demonstrates the potential of white rot fungi for degradation of phorbol esters, a major anti-nutritional factor, in JSC preventing its utilization as cattle feed.

Intracellular pathways for lignin catabolism in white-rot fungi

Project description:Lignin is a biopolymer found in plant cell walls that accounts for 30% of the organic carbon in the biosphere. White-rot fungi (WRF) are considered the most efficient organisms at degrading lignin in Nature. While lignin depolymerization by WRF has been exhaustively studied, the possibility that WRF are able to utilize lignin as a carbon source is still a matter of controversy. Here we employ 13C-labeling and systems biology approaches to demonstrate that two WRF, Trametes versicolor and Gelatoporia subvermispora, funnel lignin-derived aromatic compounds into central carbon metabolism via intracellular catabolic pathways. These results provide insights into global carbon cycling in soil ecosystems, and furthermore establishes a foundation for employing WRF in simultaneous lignin depolymerization and bioconversion to bioproducts – a key step towards enabling a sustainable bioeconomy.

Elucidating lignin catabolism in white rot fungi

Project description:We propose to elucidate new metabolic pathways in fungi - with a special focus on white rot fungi (WRF)- involved in the catabolism of lignin-derived aromatic compounds. Basidiomycete fungi, in particular WRF, are the most efficient organisms for the depolymerization and mineralization of lignin to CO2 and H2O in Nature and thus, WRF play a pivotal role in carbon cycling. Lignin depolymerization by WRF is mediated by the action of extracellular oxidative ligninolytic enzymes, such as laccases and peroxidases, alongside other secreted metabolites. This extracellular process has been studied for decades via analysis of lignin modifications, ligninolytic enzyme activity in fungal broths, enzyme isolation and characterization, and more recently through multi-omics analyses. Despite the massive research effort directed toward understanding how WRF depolymerize lignin, almost no attention has been dedicated to the elucidation of the intracellular metabolism of WRF in catabolizing lignin. In fact, whether or not WRF are able to catabolize lignin remains a matter of discussion and debate. The work (proposal:https://doi.org/10.46936/10.25585/60001176) conducted by the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (https://ror.org/04xm1d337), a DOE Office of Science User Facility, is supported by the Office of Science of the U.S. Department of Energy operated under Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231.
