Biolytic extraction of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) from Bacillus megaterium Ti3 using the lytic enzyme of Streptomyces albus Tia1.

ABSTRACT: The applicability of Streptomyces sp. cell lytic enzymes for devising a simple and competent biological polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) recovery approach from Bacillus megaterium cells was investigated. B. megaterium strain Ti3 produced 50% (w/w) PHA using glucose as carbon source. The intracellular PHA was recovered employing a non-PHA accumulating actinomycetes (Tia1) identified as Streptomyces albus, having potent lytic activity against living and heat inactivated B. megaterium. Interestingly, maximum biomass (2.53?±?0.6?g/L by 24?h) of the lytic actinomycete was obtained in PHA production medium itself thus circumventing the prior actinomycete acclimatization just by co-inoculation with B. megaterium as an inducer. Maximum lytic activity was observed at pH 6.0, 40?°C, 220?mg of biomass and 33.3?mL of concentrated culture filtrate in a 100?mL reaction mixture. Preliminary biochemical investigations confirmed the proteolytic and caseinolytic nature of the lytic enzyme. PHA yield of 0.55?g/g by co-inoculation extraction approach was comparable with the conventional sodium hypochlorite based extraction method. Interestingly, S. albus also demonstrated a broad spectrum lytic potential against varied Gram-negative and Gram-positive PHA producers highlighting the extensive applicability of this biolytic PHA recovery approach. The lytic enzyme retained almost 100% relative activity on storage at -20?°C upto two months. 1H Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of the extracted polymer confirmed it as a homopolymer composed of 3-hydroxybutyrate monomeric units. This is the first report on Streptomyces sp. based biological and eco-friendly, intracellular PHA recovery from Bacillus spp.

Project description:BackgroundBacillus cereus is a bacterial species which grows efficiently on a wide range of carbon sources and accumulates biopolymer poly-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) up to 80% cell dry weight. PHB is an aliphatic polymer produced and stored intracellularly as a reservoir of carbon and energy, its mobilization is a key biological process for sporulation in Bacillus spp. Previously, B. cereus tsu1 was isolated and cultured on rapeseed cake substrate (RCS), with maximum of PHB accumulation reached within 12 h, and depleted after 48 h. Fore-spore and spore structure were observed after 24 h culture.ResultsQuantitative proteomic analysis of B. cereus tsu1 identified 2952 quantifiable proteins, and 244 significantly changed proteins (SCPs) in the 24 h:12 h pair of samples, and 325 SCPs in the 48 h:12 h pair of samples. Based on gene ontology classification analysis, biological processes enriched only in the 24 h:12 h SCPs include purine nucleotide metabolism, protein folding, metal ion homeostasis, response to stress, carboxylic acid catabolism, and cellular amino acid catabolism. The 48 h:12 h SCPs were enriched into processes including carbohydrate metabolism, protein metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, and formation of translation ternary structure. A key enzyme for PHB metabolism, poly(R)-hydroxyalkanoic acid synthase (PhaC, KGT44865) accumulated significantly higher in 12 h-culture. Sporulation related proteins SigF and SpoEII were significantly higher in 24 h-samples. Enzymes for nitrate respiration and fermentation accumulated to the highest abundance level in 48 h-culture.ConclusionsChanges in proteome of B. cereus tsu1 during PHB intracellular mobilization were characterized in this study. The key enzyme PhaC for PHB synthesis increased significantly after 12 h-culture which supports the highest PHB accumulation at this time point. The protein abundance level of SpoIIE and SigF also increased, correlating with sporulation in 24 h-culture. Enzymes for nitrate respiration and fermentation were significantly induced in 48 h-culture which indicates the depletion of oxygen at this stage and carbon flow towards fermentative growth. Results from this study provide insights into proteome profile changes during PHB accumulation and reuse, which can be applied to achieve a higher PHB yield and to improve bacterial growth performance and stress resistance.

Project description:Streptomyces sp. are a rich source for natural products with recognized industrial value, explaining the high interest to improve and streamline production in these microbes. Here, we studied the production of pamamycins, macrodiolide homologues with a high activity against multi-resistant pathogenic microbes, using recombinant S. albus J1074/R2. Talc particles of micrometer size added to submerged cultures of the recombinant strain tripled pamamycin production up to 50 mg L-1. Furthermore, they strongly affected morphology, reduced the size of cell pellets, formed by the filamentous microbe during the process, up to six-fold, and shifted the pamamycin spectrum to larger derivatives. Integrated analysis of transcriptome and metabolome of particle-enhanced and control cultures provided detailed insights into the underlying molecular changes. The microparticles affected the expression of 3341 genes (56%), revealing a global and fundamental impact on metabolism. Morphology-associated genes, encoding major regulators such as SsgA, RelA, EshA, Factor C, as well as chaplins and rodlins, were found massively upregulated, indicating that the particles caused a substantially accelerated morphogenesis. In line, the pamamycin cluster was strongly upregulated (up to log2 10-fold). Furthermore, the microparticles perturbed genes encoding for central catabolism and CoA-ester metabolism, which were mainly activated. The altered expression resulted in changes in the availability of intracellular CoA-esters, the building blocks of pamamycin. Notably, the ratio between methylmalonyl CoA and malonyl-CoA was increased four-fold. Both metabolites compete for incorporation into pamamycin so that the altered availability explained the pronounced preference for larger derivatives in the microparticle-enhanced process. Our findings are straightforward to further develop pamamycins into antituberculosis leads. The novel insights into the behavior of S. albus in response to talc appears of general relevance to further explore and upgrade the concept of microparticle enhanced cultivation, widely used for filamentous microbes.
