Full textThe technological advancement of modern human civilisation has, until recently, depended on extensive exploitation of fossil fuels, such as oil, coal and gas, as sources of energy. Over the last few decades, greater efforts have been made to economise on the use of these nonrenewable energy resources, and to reduce the environmental pollution caused by their consumption. In a quest for new sources of energy that will be compatible with a more sustainable world economy, increased emphasis has been place on researching and developing alternative sources of energy that are renewable and safer for the environment. Fuel ethanol, which has a higher octane rating than gasoline, makes up approximately two-thirds of the world’s total annual ethanol production. Uncertainty surrounding the longterm sustainability of fuel ethanol as an energy source has prompted consideration for the use of bioethanol (ethanol from biomass) as an energy source. Factors compromising the continued availability of fuel ethanol as an energy source include the inevitable exhaustion of the world’s fossil oil resources, a possible interruption in oil supply caused by political interference, the superior net performance of biofuel ethanol in comparison to gasoline, and a significant reduction in pollution levels. It is to be expected that the demand for inexpensive, renewable substrates and cost-effective ethanol production processes will become increasingly urgent. Plant biomass (including so-called ‘energy crops’, agricultural surplus products, and waste material) is the only foreseeable sustainable source of fuel ethanol because it is relatively low in cost and in plentiful supply. The principal impediment to more widespread utilisation of this important resource is the general absence of low cost technology for overcoming the difficulties of degrading the recalcitrant polysaccharides in plant biomass to fermentable sugars from ethanol can be produced. A promising strategy for dealing with this obstacle involves the genetic modification of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strains for use in an integrated process, known as direct microbial conversion (DMC) or consolidated bioprocessing (CBP). This integrated process differs from the earlier strategies of SHF (separate hydrolysis and fermentation) and SSF (simultaneous saccharification and fermentation, in which enzymes from external sources are used) in that the production of polysaccharide-degrading enzymes, the hydrolysis of biomass and the fermentation of the resulting sugars to ethanol all take place in a single process by means of a polysaccharidefermenting yeast strain. The CBP strategy offers a substantial reduction in cost if S. cerevisiae strains can be developed that possess the required combination of substrate utilisation and product formation properties. S. cerevisiae strains with the ability to efficiently utilise polysaccharides such as starch for the production of high ethanol yields have not been described to date. However, significant progress towards the development of such amylolytic strains has been made over the past decade. With the aim of developing an efficient starch-degrading, high ethanol-yielding yeast strain, our laboratory has expressed a wide variety of heterologous amylase-encoding genes in S. cerevisiae. This study forms part of a large research programme aimed at improving these amylolytic ‘prototype’ strains of S. cerevisiae. More specifically, this study investigated the LKA1- and LKA2-encoded α-amylases (Lka1p and Lka2p) from the yeast Lipomyces kononenkoae. These α-amylases belong to the family of glycosyl hydrolases (EC 3.2.1.1) and are considered to be two of the most efficient raw-starch-degrading enzymes. Lka1p functions primarily on the α-1,4 linkages of starch, but is also active on the α-1,6 linkages. In addition, it is capable of degrading pullulan. Lka2p acts on the α-1,4 linkages. The purpose of this study was two-fold. The first goal was to characterise the molecular structure of Lka1p and Lka2p in order to better understand the structure-function relationships and role of specific amino acids in protein function with the aim of improving their substrate specificity in raw starch hydrolysis. The second aim was to determine the effect of yeast cell flocculence on the efficiency of starch fermentation, the possible development of high-flocculating, LKA1-expressing S. cerevisiae strains as ‘whole-cell biocatalysts’, and the production of high yields of ethanol from raw starch. In order to understand the structure-function relationships in Lka1p and Lka2p, standard computational and bioinformatics techniques were used to analyse the primary structure. On the basis of the primary structure and the prediction of the secondary structure, an N-terminal region (1-132 amino acids) was identified in Lka1p, the truncation of which led to the loss of raw starch adsorption and also rendered the protein less thermostable. Lka1p and Lka2p share a similar catalytic TIM barrel, consisting of four highly conserved regions previously observed in other α-amylase members. Furthermore, the unique Q414 of Lka1p located in the catalytic domain in place of the invariant H296 (TAKA amylase), which offers transition state stabilisation in α-amylases, was found to be involved in the substrate specificity of Lka1p. Mutational analysis of Q414 performed in the current study provides a basis for understanding the various properties of Lka1p in relation to the structural differences observed in this molecule. Knowing which molecular features of Lka1p contribute to its biochemical properties provides us with the potential to expand the substrate specificity properties of this α-amylase towards more effective processing of its starch and related substrates. In attempting to develop ‘whole-cell biocatalysts’, the yeast’s capacity for flocculation was used to improve raw starch hydrolysis by S. cerevisiae expressing LKA1. It was evident that the flocculent cells exhibited physicochemical properties that led to a better interaction with the starch matrix. This, in turn, led to a decrease in the time interval for interaction between the enzyme and the substrate, thus facilitating faster substrate degradation in flocculent cells. The use of flocculation serves as a promising strategy to best exploit the expression of LKA1 in S. cerevisiae for raw starch hydrolysis. This thesis describes the approaches taken to investigate the molecular features involved in the function of the L. kononenkoae α-amylases, and to improve their properties for the efficient hydrolysis of raw starch. This study contributes to the development of amylolytic S. cerevisiae strains for their potential use in single-step, cost-effective production of fuel ethanol from inexpensive starch-rich materials.

Full textA new a-amylase from Lactobacillus fermentum (FERMENTA) was purified. The structural and functional characteristics were studied and compared with Lb. Plantarum (PLANTAA) and Lb. Manihotivorans (MANIHOA) a-amylases. FERMENTA molecular mass (100 kDa) is in the same range than those determined for PLANTAA and MANIHOA. Structure of FERMENTA indicates that the sequence contains two equal parts with the C-terminal repeats. Isoelectric point of the three a-amylases are about the same (3. 5). The functional properties of FERMENTA are studied : optimal pH (5. 0) and temperature (40ʿC). Kinetics of the three a-amylases with amylose and acarbose were carried out. Inhibition of FERMENTA is of mixed noncompetitive type while the inhibition of PLANTAA and MANIHOA is of uncompetitive type. Whatever the inhibition type, acarbose is a strong inhibitor of these amylases. These results indicate that they contain, in addition to the active site, a soluble carbohydrate (substrate or product) binding site

Full textButyrivibrio fibrisolvens H17c is an important anaerobic bacterium found in the rumen of most ruminants. The aim of this thesis was to establish a genebank of B. fibrisolvens H17c DNA in E.coli and to isolate and characterize genes encoding enzymes involved in the degradation of the major plant polysaccharides. A library of chromosomal DNA fragments from B. fibrisolvens was established in the E. coli-Bacillus subtilis shuttle vector pEBl. The library was screened for the expression of B. fibrisolvens genes in E. coli. E. coli clones expressing glutamine synthetase, carboxymethylcellulase, β-glucosidase and amylolytic-type activities were isolated. A gene (amyA) expressing amylolytic activity and encoding an α-amylase was located on a 5.0 kb DNA fragment and expressed from its own promoter in E. coli. It was shown that more than 86% of the amylolytic actvity was located in the periplasm of the E.coli host and TnphoA mutagenesis indicated the presence of a functional signal peptide. The nucleotide sequence of amyA was determined and encoded a protein of 976 amino acids with a calculated Mr of 106,964. High sequence similarity was demonstrated between the B. fibrisolvens α-amylase and other α-amylases in the three highly conserved regions which constitute the active centre. Conserved regions were all located in the N-terminal half of the B. fibrisolvens amylase and no homology to other amylases was detected for the remainder of the protein. Approximately 40% of the C-terminal region of the protein could be deleted without loss of enzymatic activity. The B. fibrisolvens α-amylase degraded amylose, amylopectin and soluble starch with maltotriose as the major initial hydrolysis product. A gene (glgB) encoding a glycogen branching enzyme, the activity of which produced clearing on starch azure plates, was isolated. The glgB gene was expressed from its own promoter in the host E.coli and encoded a protein of 639 amino acids with a calculated Mr of 73,875. The deduced amino acid sequence of the glgB gene showed high sequence homology (46-50%) to other branching enzymes. The branching enzyme was purified to homogeneity and the properties of the purified enzyme were investigated. Optimal activity of the branching enzyme was at pH 7.2 and 37°C. The branching enzyme was shown to transfer chains of between 5 to 10 glucose units using α-1,4 glucans as substrates, and to stimulate the "de novo" synthesis of a polysaccharide similar to glycogen.
