  • a recombinant 12 his tagged pyrococcus furiosus soluble nife hydrogenase i overexpressed in thermococcus kodakarensis kod1 facilitates hydrogen powered in vitro nadh regeneration
    Biotechnology Journal, 2019
    Co-Authors: Yunhong Song, Yiheng Job P Zhang
    Abstract:

    : Soluble hydrogenase I (SHI) from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus is a heterotetrameric [NiFe] hydrogenase that catalyzes the reversible reduction of protons by NADPH into hydrogen gas (H2 ). Here, the authors expressed the four αβγδ subunits of SHI encoded by one gene cluster in another hyperthermophilic archaeon, Thermococcus kodakarensis KOD1, which uses its hydrogenase maturation apparatus without the coexpression of native P. furiosus hydrogenase endopeptidases (maturation proteases). The SHI overexpression of T. kodakarensis resulted in more than 1200-fold enhancement in the hydrogenase activity of the cell lysate compared to that of the host strain with an empty vector. An active, purified 12-His tagged recombinant SHI (rSHI) is obtained by one-step affinity adsorption on nickel-charged resin. Size-exclusion chromatography show that purified rSHI is heterotetrameric and has a molecular mass of 150 kDa. The purified rSHI has a half-life of 70 h at 80 °C. This rSHI is used to design a novel in vitro synthetic enzymatic biosystem to convert pyruvate and H2 gas into lactate in a theoretical yield, whereas rSHI is used for NADPH regeneration; an FMN-containing diaphorase (DI) is used to match NADP-preferred SHI and NAD-preferred lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). This study provides a cost-efficient method to obtain hyperthermostable hydrogenases, which can be used in in vitro synthetic enzymatic Biosystems for cofactor regeneration and hydrogen production.

  • Stoichiometric Conversion of Cellulosic Biomass by in Vitro Synthetic Enzymatic Biosystems for Biomanufacturing
    2018
    Co-Authors: Dongdong Meng, Yiheng Job P Zhang, Xinlei Wei, Zhiguang Zhu, Chun You
    Abstract:

    Cellulosic biomass is the earth’s most abundant renewable resource, which is considered to be a promising feedstock for manufacturing biofuels and biochemicals. In this study, stoichiometric enzymatic phosphorolysis of cellulosic biomass for manufacturing biochemicals or biofuels by in vitro synthetic enzymatic Biosystems was designed. Three cascade phosphorolytic enzymes, cellodextrin phosphorylase, cellobiose phosphorylase, and polyphosphate-dependent glucokinase, were used for the biotransformation of cellodextrins to high-energy phosphorylated sugars (that is, glucose 1-phosphate and glucose 6-phosphate). A series of downstream exergonic reactions then converted these high-energy phosphorylated sugars into myo-inositol, resulting in a near-stoichiometric conversion of cellodextrins with a high product yield of 98% (w/w). Moreover, this enzymatic biosystem can even work for the acid-treated biomass hydrolysate containing microorganism-toxic compounds. The construction of this in vitro synthetic enzymatic biosystem provided an alternative method for the utilization of cellulosic biomass rather than cellulolytic enzyme hydrolysis to fermentative monomeric sugars followed by microorganism fermentation, showing potentials in the production of biocommodities such as hydrogen, rare sugars, and electricity from cellulosic biomass

  • Characterization of a hyperthermophilic phosphatase from Archaeoglobus fulgidus and its application in in vitro synthetic enzymatic biosystem
    Bioresources and Bioprocessing, 2019
    Co-Authors: Wei Wang, Dongdong Meng, Chun You
    Abstract:

    Haloacid dehalogenase (HAD)-like hydrolases represent the largest superfamily of phosphatases, which release inorganic phosphate from phosphate containing compounds, such as sugar phosphates. The HAD-like phosphatases with highly substrate specificity, which perform irreversible dephosphorylation, are always integrated into in vitro synthetic enzymatic Biosystems as the last enzymatic step for the cost-efficient production of biochemicals. Therefore, identification and characterization of substrate specificity of HAD-like phosphatases are important for exploring their application. In this study, a hyperthermophilic HAD-like phosphatase from Archaeoglobus fulgidus (AfPase) was cloned, expressed, and characterized. AfPase was identified as a type I Mg2+-dependent HAD-like phosphatase with high optimal temperature and thermostability. Among the tested phosphate containing compounds, AfPase exhibited the highest catalytic activity on p-nitrophenyl phosphate, followed by dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). On the basis of the high catalytic activity of AfPase to generate 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (DHA) from DHAP, an in vitro synthetic enzymatic biosystem containing this phosphatase and other five enzymes was constructed for the biosynthesis of DHA from inexpensive maltodextrin in one pot. About 14 mM (1.26 g/L) DHA was produced from 10 g/L maltodextrin. A hyperthermophilic HAD-like phosphatase from Archaeoglobus fulgidus was characterized carefully, and the success of an in vitro synthetic enzymatic biosystem containing this phosphatase provided a promising approach for DHA production from maltodextrin.
