Project description:Hyperthermophilic hot spring bacterium
| PRJNA16719 | ENA
Project description:This experiment aims on the identification of serine hydrolases from a complex thermophile community that live in a hot vent in Kamchatka Peninsula based on in vivo labelling with FP-alkyne directly in the hot spring and subsequent analysis using metagenomics/metaproteomics. To this end, sediment samples were collected and treated using the following three conditions. DMSO- treated control FP-alkyne labelled Samples for each condition were prepared in triplicate, resulting a total number of 6 samples per spring. Labelling was performed using 4 µM of the probe FP-alkyne and incubation for 2 h in the hot spring.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Complete enzymatic hydrolysis of xylan to xylose requires the action of endoxylanase and ?-xylosidase. ?-xylosidases play an important part in hydrolyzing xylo-oligosaccharides to xylose. Thermostable ?-xylosidases have been a focus of attention as industrially important enzymes due to their long shelf life and role in the relief of end-product inhibition of xylanases caused by xylo-oligosaccharides. Therefore, a highly thermostable ?-xylosidase with high specific activity has significant potential in lignocellulose bioconversion. RESULTS: A gene encoding a highly thermostable GH39 ?-xylosidase was cloned from Geobacillus sp. strain WSUCF1 and expressed in Escherichia coli. Recombinant ?-xylosidase was active over a wide range of temperatures and pH with optimum temperature of 70 °C and pH 6.5. It exhibited very high thermostability, retaining 50% activity at 70 °C after 9 days. WSUCF1 ?-xylosidase is more thermostable than ?-xylosidases reported from other thermophiles (growth temperature ? 70 °C). Specific activity was 133 U/mg when incubated with p-nitrophenyl xylopyranoside, with Km and Vmax values of 2.38 mM and 147 U/mg, respectively. SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that the recombinant enzyme had a mass of 58 kDa, but omitting heating prior to electrophoresis increased the apparent mass to 230 kDa, suggesting the enzyme exists as a tetramer. Enzyme exhibited high tolerance to xylose, retained approximately 70% of relative activity at 210 mM xylose concentration. Thin layer chromatography showed that the enzyme had potential to convert xylo-oligomers (xylobiose, triose, tetraose, and pentaose) into fermentable xylose. WSUCF1 ?-xylosidase along with WSUCF1 endo-xylanase synergistically converted the xylan into fermentable xylose with more than 90% conversion. CONCLUSIONS: Properties of the WSUCF1 ?-xylosidase i.e. high tolerance to elevated temperatures, high specific activity, conversion of xylo-oligomers to xylose, and resistance to inhibition from xylose, make this enzyme potentially suitable for various biotechnological applications.

Project description:Geobacillus sp. WSUCF1 is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, aerobic and thermophilic bacterium, isolated from a soil sample obtained from a compost facility. Strain WSUCF1 demonstrated EPS producing capability using different sugars as the carbon source. The whole-genome analysis of WSUCF1 was performed to disclose the essential genes correlated with nucleotide sugar precursor biosynthesis, assembly of monosaccharide units, export of the polysaccharide chain, and regulation of EPS production. Both the biosynthesis pathway and export mechanism of EPS were proposed based on functional annotation. Additionally, the genome description of strain WSUCF1 suggests sophisticated systems for its adaptation under thermophilic conditions. The presence of genes associated with CRISPR-Cas system, quorum quenching lactonase, polyketide synthesis and arsenic resistance makes this strain a potential candidate for various applications in biotechnology and biomedicine. The present study indicates that strain WSUCF1 has promise as a thermophilic EPS producer for a broad range of industrial applications. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on genome analysis of a thermophilic Geobacillus species focusing on its EPS biosynthesis and transportation, which will likely pave the way for both enhanced yield and tailor-made EPS production by thermophilic bacteria.
