Project description:The physiology of ethanologenic Escherichia coli grown anaerobically in alkaline-pretreated plant hydrolysates is not well studied. To gain insight into how E. coli responds to such hydrolysates, we studied an E. coli K-12 ethanologen fermenting a hydrolysate prepared from corn stover pre-treated by ammonia fiber expansion. Despite the high sugar content (~6% glucose, 3% xylose) and relatively low toxicity of this hydrolysate, E. coli ceased growth long before glucose was depleted. Nevertheless, the cells remained metabolically active and continued conversion of glucose to ethanol until all glucose was consumed. Gene expression profiling revealed complex and changing patterns of metabolic physiology and cellular stress responses throughout the different stages of growth. During the exponential and transition phases of growth, high cell maintenance and stress response costs were mitigated, in part, by free amino acids available in the hydrolysate media. However, after the majority of amino acids were depleted from the media cells entered stationary phase and ATP derived from glucose fermentation was consumed entirely by the demands of cell maintenance in the hydrolysate. Comparative gene expression profiling and metabolic modeling of the ethanologen suggested that the high energetic cost of mitigating osmotic, lignotoxin and ethanol stress collectively limits growth, sugar utilization rates and ethanol yields in alkaline-pretreated lignocellulosic hydrolysates.

The remaining samples were obtained from fermentations conducted in defined media (Glucose Minimal Media (GMM, n=7), Synthetic Hydrolysate media (SynH, n=7)).

Project description:Previously we found that modified Zymomonas mobilis is able to convert glucose to ethanol when fermenting highly concentrated hydrolysates such as 9% glucan-loading AFEX-pretreated corn stover hydrolysate (ACSH), but that xylose conversion after glucose depletion is greatly impaired. We hypothesized that impaired xylose conversion is caused by lignocellulose-derived inhibitors (LDIs) present in highly concentrated hydrolysates. To investigate the effects of LDIs on xylose utilization in Z. mobilis, we generated synthetic hydrolysates (SynHs) that contains nutrients and LDI at concentrations found in authentic 9% ACSH. Comparative fermentations of Z. mobilis 2032 using SynH with or without LDI were performed, and samples were collected for endproduct, transcriptomic, metabolomic, and proteomic analyses. Our data suggest that the overall flux of xylose metabolism is reduced in the presence of LDIs. However, the expression of most genes involved in glucose and xylose assimilation was not affected by LDIs nor did we observe blocks in glucose and xylose metabolic pathways. Several LDI-specific effects were observed including intracellular accumulation of mannose-1P and mannose-6P, down regulation of a Type I secretion system (ZMO0252-0255), and upregulation of sulfur metabolism genes and the RND family efflux pump system (ZMO0282_0283_0285). This efflux pump system is involved in detoxification. Together, our findings identify cellular responses to LDIs and possible causes of impaired xylose conversion that will enable future strain engineering of Z. mobilis.

Project description:Efficient microbial conversion of lignocellulosic hydrolysates to biofuels is a key barrier to the economically viable deployment of lignocellulosic biofuels. A chief contributor to this barrier is the impact on microbial processes and energy metabolism of lignocellulose-derived inhibitors, including phenolic carboxylates, phenolic amides (for ammonia-pretreated biomass), phenolic aldehydes, and furfurals. To understand the bacterial pathways induced by inhibitors present in ammonia-pretreated biomass hydrolysates, which are less well studied than acid-pretreated biomass hydrolysates, we developed and exploited synthetic mimics of ammonia-pretreated corn stover hydrolysate (ACSH). To determine regulatory responses to the inhibitors normally present in ACSH, we measured transcript and protein levels in an Escherichia coli ethanologen using RNA-seq and quantitative proteomics during fermentation to ethanol of synthetic hydrolysates containing or lacking the inhibitors. Our study identified four major regulators mediating these responses, the MarA/SoxS/Rob network, AaeR, FrmR, and YqhC. Induction of these regulons was correlated with a reduced rate of ethanol production, buildup of pyruvate, depletion of ATP and NAD(P)H, and an inhibition of xylose conversion. The aromatic aldehyde inhibitor 5M-bM-^@M-^Qhydroxymethylfurfural appeared to be reduced to its alcohol form by the ethanologen during fermentation, whereas phenolic acid and amide inhibitors were not metabolized. Together, our findings establish that the major regulatory responses to lignocellulose-derived inhibitors are mediated by transcriptional rather than translational regulators, suggest that energy consumed for inhibitor efflux and detoxification may limit biofuel production, and identify a network of regulators for future synthetic biology efforts. E.coli ethanologen strain GLBRCE1 or GLBRCE1 lacking the plasmid-borne PET cassette (GLBRCE1_pBBR) was grown in AFEX corn stover hydrolysate (ACSH) Fermentations were carried out in 3 L bioreactors (Applikon Biotechnology) containing 2.45 L of ACSH, and cultures were diluted into ACSH with initial OD at 0.2, grown anaerobically overnight, and then inoculated into bioreactors to a starting OD600 of 0.2. One biological replicate was grown in each medium. RNA samples were obtained at 3 time points, corresponding to exponential (Exp), transitional (Trans), and stationary (Stat) growth phases.
