Display of a sucrose isomerase on the cell surface of Yarrowia lipolytica for synthesis of isomaltulose from sugar cane by-products.

ABSTRACT: Isomaltulose (?-d-glucopyranosyl-1,6-d-fructofuranose) is an important industrial and raw food material, which can be synthesised from the by-products of sugar cane processing through sucrose isomerization conversion. In this study, we constructed a surface display vector of sucrose isomerase from Pantoea dispersa (pSIase) by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-cell wall protein (CWP) anchor signal sequence and successfully displayed pSIase on the cell surface of Yarrowia lipolytica, thereby increasing the conversion efficiency of isomaltulose. The highest activity of the displayed pSIase reached 2910.3 U/g of cell dry weight. Compared with the free pSIase, the displayed enzyme showed good stability at a broad range of temperatures (20-45 °C). The half-life at 40 °C increased from 62 to 141 min and the deactivation constants (k _d) reached 4.91?×?10^-3 min^-1. Using low-cost cane molasses as the substrate, the isomaltulose conversion rate remained at 85% even after 9 batches were processed, which is a highly desired outcome for industrial use.

Project description:BackgroundSugar content is critically important in determining sugar crop productivity. However, improvement in sugar content has been stagnant among sugar crops for decades. Sorghum, especially sweet sorghum with high biomass, shown great potential for biofuel, has lower sugar content than sugarcane. To enhance sugar content, the sucrose isomerase (SI) gene, driven by stem-specific promoters (A2 or LSG) with a vacuole-targetted signal peptide, was transformed into the sorghum inbred line (T×430).ResultsThe study demonstrated that transgenic lines of grain sorghum, containing 50-60% isomaltulose, accumulated up to eightfold (1000 mM) more total sugar than the control T×430 did (118 mM) in stalks of T0 generation. Subsequently, the elite engineered lines (A5, and LSG9) were crossed with sweet sorghum (Rio, and R9188). Total sugar contents (over 750 mM), were notably higher in F1, and F2 progenies than the control Rio (480 mM). The sugar contents of the engineered lines (over 750 mM), including T0, T1, F1, and F2, are surprisingly higher than that of the field-grown sugarcane (normal range 600-700 mmol/L). Additionally, analysis of physiological characterization demonstrated that the superior progenies had notably higher rates of photosynthesis, sucrose transportation, and sink strength than the controls.ConclusionsThe genetic engineering approach has dramatically enhanced total sugar content in grain sorghum (T0, and T1) and hybrid sorghum (F1, and F2), demonstrating that sorghum can accumulate as high or higher sugar content than sugarcane. This research illustrates that the SI gene has enormous potential on improvement of sugar content in sorghum, particularly in hybirds and sweet sorghum. The substantial increase on sugar content would lead to significant financial benefits for industrial utilization. This study could have a substantial impact on renewable bioenergy. More importantly, our results demonstrated that the phenotype of high sugar content is inheritable and shed light on improvement for other sugar crops.
