Project description:Transcriptional profiling of A. niger comparing different strains (WT, ΔXlnR, ΔaraR and ΔaraRΔXlnR) treated with 25mM xylose + 25mM arabinose for 2 and 8h. The main objective was to identifiy genes related to primary metabolism and carbohydrate metabolism in general, for instance, cellulases and hemicellulases. The study will compare the differences between WT strain and the strains with the disrupted xylanolytic transcriptional activator gene, XlnR, the arabinolytic transcriptional activator gene, AraR, and the double mutant,after treatment with xylose+arabinose (XA treatment). The experiment was further validated by real-time PCR and enzymatic assays.

Project description:D-glucose, D-xylose and L-arabinose are three major monosaccharides in the plant cell wall. Complete utilization of all three sugars is still a bottleneck for second-generation cellulolytic bioethanol production, especially for L-arabinose. However, little is known about the gene expression profiles during L-arabinose utilization in fungi at genome-wide level and a comparison of the genome-wide fungal response to these three major monosaccharides has not yet been reported. To better understand the microbial response and utilization of L-arabinose for subsequent microbial engineering for co-fermentation all three sugars, we performed transcriptome analysis of N. crassa grown on L-arabinose, compared with that on D-xylose and D-glucose.

Project description:Background: Bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates from sustainable lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels by the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium acetobutylicum is a promising alternative energy source to fossil fuels. Understanding the complex metabolic pathways it employs and how they are regulated will contribute to improved biofuel production. Recently, it has been demonstrated that xylose is not appreciably fermented in the presence of arabinose, suggesting a hierarchy of pentose utilization in this organism. Our goal is to uncover if transcriptional regulation contributes to this hierarchy. Results: Growth and sugar consumption rates showed that arabinose, like glucose, actively represses xylose utilization in cultures fermenting xylose. RNA-Seq revealed there was a large overlap in differentially regulated genes after addition of arabinose or glucose, suggesting a common mechanism of regulation. A putative ORF was identified that may be important for transcriptional regulation in response to the nutritional state of the cells. Conclusions: Decreased xylose consumption, increased acetate production, and transcription of the phosphoketolase gene (CA_C1343) revealed a transition of pentose catabolism from the pentose phosphate pathway to the phosphoketolase pathway after addition of arabinose. Together, these results substantiate the claim that arabinose is utilized preferentially over xylose in C. acetobutylicum. Furthermore, they demonstrate that this phenomenon is modulated in part at the transcriptional level, and they provide valuable insight into potential mechanisms for altering pentose utilization to modulate fermentation products for biofuel production.

Project description:L-Arabinose occurs at economically relevant levels in lignocellulosic hydrolysates. Especially at low concentrations of L-arabinose, its uptake via the Gal2 galactose transporter is an important rate-controlling step in the complete conversion of these feedstocks by engineered, pentose-metabolizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. Chemostat-based transcriptome analysis yielded 16 putative sugar transporter genes in the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum whose transcript levels were at least three-fold higher in L-arabinose-limited cultures than in glucose-limited and ethanol-limited cultures. Of five genes that showed an over 30-fold higher transcript level in arabinose-grown cultures, only one (Pc20g01790) restored growth on L-arabinose upon expression in an engineered L-arabinose-fermenting S. cerevisiae strain in which GAL2 had been deleted. Sugar-transport assays indicated that Pc20g01790this transporter, designated as PcAraT, encodes functions as a high-affinity (Km = 0.13 mM) L-arabinose-proton symporter that does not transport xylose or glucose. An L-arabinose-metabolizing S. cerevisiae strain co-expressing Pc20g01790PcAraT and GAL2 showed lower residual substrate concentrations in L-arabinose-limited chemostat cultures (4 mg L-1) than a congenic strain in which L-arabinose import exclusively depended on Gal2 (1.8 g L-1). Inhibition of L-arabinose transport by these sugars was less pronounced than observed with Gal2. A hexose-phosphorylation-deficient, L-arabinose-metabolizing S. cerevisiae strain expressing PcAraT Pc20g0190 grew on 20 g L-1 L-arabinose in the presence of 20 g L-1 glucose, which completely inhibited growth on L-arabinose of a congenic strain dependent on L-arabinose transport via Gal2. Its high affinity and specificity for L-L-arabinose, combined with limited sensitivity to inhibition by glucose and D-D-xylose make PcAraT/ Pc20g01790 a valuable transporter gene for application in metabolic engineering strategies aimed at engineering S. cerevisiae strains for efficient conversion of lignocellulosic hydrolysates.

Project description:Herbaspirillum seropedicae are β-proteobacteria that establish as endophytes in various plants. They are able to consume diverse carbon sources, including hexoses and pentoses like D-xylose. D-xylose catabolism pathways have been described in some microorganisms, but databases of genes involved in these routes are limited. This is of special interest in biotechnology, considering that D-xylose is the second most abundant sugar in nature. Furthermore, it is found in some potential raw materials such as lignocellulosic biomass. In this work we present a study of D-xylose catabolism pathways in H. seropedicae strain Z69, using RNA-seq analysis and the subsequent study of phenotypes determined in targeted mutants in corresponding identified genes. G5B88_22805 gene, designated xylB, encodes a NAD+- dependent D-xylose dehydrogenase. Mutant Z69∆xylB was still able to grow on D-xylose, although at a reduced rate. This is due to expression of an L-arabinose dehydrogenase encoded by G5B88_05250 gene, and was thus able to use D-xylose as substrate. According to our results, H. seropedicae Z69 uses non-phosphorylative pathways to catabolize D-xylose. The lower portion of metabolism involves co-expression of two routes: Weimberg pathway that produces α-ketoglutarate and a novel pathway recently described that produces pyruvate and glycolate. This novel pathway seems to be essential since a mutant in the last step of this pathway, Z69∆G5B88_06410, was unable to grow on D‑xylose.

Project description:Increasing yeast robustness against biomass-derived inhibitors and insoluble solids is essential for the realization of a bio-based economy. The xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces cereivisiae F12 strain was subjected to an adaptive laboratory evolution experiment in the presence of these stressors. The resulting evolved strain exhibit better fermentation performance in terms of xylose consumption and ethanol yields than the parental strain. The overexpression of genes related to cell wall integrity and the stress response, together with the downregulation of protein synthesis and iron transport and homeostasis were highlighted as the major biological processes responsible for the improved phenotype.
