Valorization of Gelidium amansii for dual production of D-galactonic acid and 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid by chemo-biological approach.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Marine macroalgae Gelidium amansii is a promising feedstock for production of sustainable biochemicals to replace petroleum and edible biomass. Different from terrestrial lignocellulosic biomass, G. amansii is comprised of high carbohydrate content and has no lignin. In previous studies, G. amansii biomass has been exploited to obtain fermentable sugars along with suppressing 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) formation for bioethanol production. In this study, a different strategy was addressed and verified for dual production of D-galactose and HMF, which were subsequently oxidized to D-galactonic acid and 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (HMFCA) respectively via Pseudomonas putida. RESULTS:G. amansii biomass was hydrolyzed by dilute acid to form D-galactose and HMF. The best result was attained after pretreatment with 2% (w/w) HCl at 120 °C for 40 min. Five different Pseudomonas sp. strains including P. putida ATCC 47054, P. fragi ATCC 4973, P. stutzeri CICC 10402, P. rhodesiae CICC 21960, and P. aeruginosa CGMCC 1.10712, were screened for highly selective oxidation of D-galactose and HMF. Among them, P. putida ATCC 47054 was the outstanding suitable biocatalyst converting D-galactose and HMF to the corresponding acids without reduced or over-oxidized products. It was plausible that the pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent glucose dehydrogenase and undiscovered molybdate-dependent enzyme(s) in P. putida ATCC 47054 individually played pivotal role for D-galactose and HMF oxidation. Taking advantage of its excellent efficiency and high selectivity, a maximum of 55.30 g/L D-galactonic acid and 11.09 g/L HMFCA were obtained with yields of 91.1% and 98.7% using G. amansii hydrolysates as substrate. CONCLUSIONS:Valorization of G. amansii biomass for dual production of D-galactonic acid and HMFCA can enrich the product varieties and improve the economic benefits. This study also demonstrates the perspective of making full use of marine feedstocks to produce other value-added products.

Project description:The development of enzymatic processes for the environmentally friendly production of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), a renewable precursor for bioplastics, from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has gained increasing attention over the last years. Aryl-alcohol oxidases (AAOs) catalyze the oxidation of HMF to 5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (FFCA) through 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) and have thus been applied in enzymatic reaction cascades for the production of FDCA. AAOs are flavoproteins that oxidize a broad range of benzylic and aliphatic allylic primary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes, and in some cases further to acids, while reducing molecular oxygen to hydrogen peroxide. These promising biocatalysts can also be used for the synthesis of flavors, fragrances, and chemical building blocks, but their industrial applicability suffers from low production yield in natural and heterologous hosts. Here we report on heterologous expression of a new aryl-alcohol oxidase, MaAAO, from Moesziomyces antarcticus at high yields in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris (recently reclassified as Komagataella phaffii). Fed-batch fermentation of recombinant P. pastoris yielded around 750 mg of active enzyme per liter of culture. Purified MaAAO was highly stable at pH 2-9 and exhibited high thermal stability with almost 95% residual activity after 48 h at 57.5 °C. MaAAO accepts a broad range of benzylic primary alcohols, aliphatic allylic alcohols, and furan derivatives like HMF as substrates and some oxidation products thereof like piperonal or perillaldehyde serve as building blocks for pharmaceuticals or show health-promoting effects. Besides this, MaAAO oxidized 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (HMFCA) to FFCA, which has not been shown for any other AAO so far. Combining MaAAO with an unspecific peroxygenase oxidizing HMFCA to FFCA in one pot resulted in complete conversion of HMF to FDCA within 144 h. MaAAO is thus a promising biocatalyst for the production of precursors for bioplastics and bioactive compounds. KEY POINTS: • MaAAO from M. antarcticus was expressed in P. pastoris at 750 mg/l. • MaAAO oxidized 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (HMFCA). • Complete conversion of HMF to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid by combining MaAAO and UPO.
