Cadaverine Production From L-Lysine With Chitin-Binding Protein-Mediated Lysine Decarboxylase Immobilization.

ABSTRACT: Lysine decarboxylase (CadA) can directly convert L-lysine to cadaverine, which is an important platform chemical that can be used to produce polyamides. However, the non-recyclable and the poor pH tolerance of pure CadA hampered its practical application. Herein, a one-step purification and immobilization procedure of CadA was established to investigate the cadaverine production from L-lysine. Renewable biomass chitin was used as a carrier for lysine decarboxylase (CadA) immobilization via fusion of a chitin-binding domain (ChBD). Scanning electron microscopy, laser scanning confocal microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectra, elemental analysis, and thermal gravimetric analysis proved that the fusion protein ChBD-CadA can be adsorbed on chitin effectively. Furthermore, the fusion protein (ChBD-CadA) existed better pH stability compared to wild CadA, and kept over 73% of the highest activity at pH 8.0. Meanwhile, the ChBD-CadA showed high specificity toward chitin and reached 93% immobilization yield within 10 min under the optimum conditions. The immobilized ChBD-CadA (I-ChBD-CadA) could efficiently converted L-lysine at 200.0 g/L to cadaverine at 135.6 g/L in a batch conversion within 120 min, achieving a 97% molar yield of the substrate L-lysine. In addition, the I-ChBD-CadA was able to be reused under a high concentration of L-lysine and retained over 57% of its original activity after four cycles of use without acid addition to maintain pH. These results demonstrate that immobilization of CadA using chitin-binding domain has the potential in cadaverine production on an industrial scale.

Project description:Enzyme immobilization is a powerful tool not only as a protective agent against harsh reaction conditions but also for the enhancement of enzyme activity, stability, reusability, and for the improvement of enzyme properties as well. Herein, immobilization of β-glucosidase from Thermotoga maritima (Tm-β-Glu) on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) functionalized with chitin (Ch) was investigated. This technology showed a novel thermostable chitin-binding domain (Tt-ChBD), which is more desirable in a wide range of large-scale applications. This exclusive approach was fabricated to improve the Galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS) production from a cheap and abundant by-product such as lactose through a novel green synthesis route. Additionally, SDS-PAGE, enzyme activity kinetics, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) revealed that among the immobilization strategies for Thermotoga maritime-β-Glucosidase thermostable chitin-binding domain (Tm-β-Glu-Tt-ChBD) on the attractive substrate; Ch-MNPs had the highest enzyme binding capacity and GOS production ratio when compared to the native enzyme. More interestingly, a magnetic separation technique was successfully employed in recycling the immobilized Tm-β-Glu for repetitive batch-wise GOS without significant loss or reduction of enzyme activity. This immobilization system displayed an operative stability status under various parameters, for instance, temperature, pH, thermal conditions, storage stabilities, and enzyme kinetics when compared with the native enzyme. Conclusively, the GOS yield and residual activity of the immobilized enzyme after the 10th cycles were 31.23% and 66%, respectively. Whereas the GOS yield from native enzyme synthesis was just 25% after 12 h in the first batch. This study recommends applying Tt-ChBD in the immobilization process of Tm-β-Glu on Ch-MNPs to produce a low-cost GOS as a new eco-friendly process besides increasing the biostability and efficiency of the immobilized enzyme.

Project description:Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play a key role in many food fermentations. However, some LAB species can also cause food spoilage, e.g., through the formation of biogenic amines. Paucilactobacillus wasatchensis is a LAB that causes late gas production in Cheddar cheese, the molecular causes of which are not fully understood. This study reports on the ability of P. wasatchensis WDC04 to produce cadaverine and putrescine in broth supplemented with lysine and ornithine, as well as in a model cheese. The raclette-type semi-hard cheese produced with P. wasatchensis as an adjunct culture contained 1,085 mg kg-1 of cadaverine and 304 mg kg-1 of putrescine after 120 days of ripening. We identified two ornithine decarboxylase genes (odc) and a putrescine-ornithine antiporter gene (potE) in the genome sequence of P. wasatchensis. We could show that the two odc genes, which are located on two contigs, are contiguous and form the genetic cluster odc2-odc1-potE. Alignment searches showed that similar gene clusters exist in the genomes of Levilactobacillus paucivorans DSMZ22467, Lentilactobacillus kribbianus YH-lac9, Levilactobacillus hunanensis 151-2B, and Levilactobacillus lindianensis 220-4. More amino acid sequence comparisons showed that Odc1 and Odc2 shared 72 and 69% identity with a lysine and ornithine decarboxylase from Ligilactobacillus saerimneri 30a, respectively. To clarify the catalytic activities of both enzymes, the odc-coding genes were cloned and heterologously expressed as His-tagged fusion protein. The purified Odc1 protein decarboxylated lysine into cadaverine, while the recombinant Odc2 protein preferentially produced putrescine from ornithine but also exhibited low lysine decarboxylating activity. Both enzymes were active at pH of 5.5, a value often found in cheese. To our knowledge, this is only the second lysine decarboxylase in LAB whose function has been verified. The tandem arrangement of the genes in a single cluster suggests a gene duplication, evolving the ability to metabolize more amino. Divergent substrate preferences highlight the necessity of verifying the functions of genes, in addition to automatic annotation based on sequence similarity. Acquiring new biochemical data allows better predictive models and, in this case, more accurate biogenic amine production potential for LAB strains and microbiomes.
