Project description:Genetic engineering of filamentous fungi has promise for accelerating the transition to a more sustainable food system and enhancing the nutritional value, sensory appeal, and scalability of microbial foods. However, genetic tools and demonstrated use cases for bioengineered food production by edible strains are lacking. Here, we developed a synthetic biology toolkit for Aspergillus oryzae, an edible fungus traditionally used in fermented foods and currently used in protein production and meat alternatives. Our toolkit includes a CRISPR-Cas9 method for genome integration, neutral loci, and new promoters. We use these tools to enhance the elevate levels of the nutraceutical ergothioneine and intracellular heme in the edible biomass. The biomass overproducing heme is red in color and is readily formulated into imitation meat patties with minimal processing. These findings highlight the promise of genetic approaches to enhance fungal meat alternatives and provide useful engineering tools for diverse applications in fungal food production and beyond.

Project description:Pulses are an important food and are consumed as a sustainable source of plant-based proteins. The demand for pulse proteins is continuously increasing due to their nutritional, economic, and ecological values. Although pulse proteins provide many health benefits, they have limitations in terms of sensory attributes and anti-nutritional factors. To overcome these challenges, fermentation technology has been explored as a natural food processing method, as it has the potential to enhance the techno-functional qualities, sensory attributes, and nutritional value of the products. Spontaneous fermentation is a natural process in which the native microbial population grows in the substrate without the addition of specific microbes or spores. There is a knowledge gap regarding proteomic changes that occur during the spontaneous fermentation of legumes. The current study utilized mass spectrometry-based proteomics to investigate the effects of spontaneous fermentation on three different pulse protein isolates (chickpea, faba bean, and lentils).

Project description:Pleurotus tuoliensis is a precious edible fungus with extremely high nutritive and medicinal value. The cultivation period of P. tuoliensis is longer than those of other Pleurotus species, which is mainly due to a longer mycelium physiological maturation period (30-60 days). Currently, the molecular processes underlying physiological maturation of the mycelium remain unclear. We performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis of immature and mature mycelia using RNA-seq. De novo transcriptome assembly resulted in identification of 17,030 unigenes. 451 differentially expressed genes, including those encoding nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK), glycoside hydrolase family proteins, exopolygalacturonase, and versatile peroxidases, were identified. GO and KEGG analyses revealed that nucleotide synthesis and energy metabolism are highly active during the physiological maturation of mycelia, and genes related to these pathways were significantly up-regulated in mature mycelia. NDPK is predicted to be essential for mycelia maturation. Our findings contribute to a comprehensive understanding of mycelia maturation in a commercially important fungal species. Future efforts will focus on the function of NDPK and the mechanism by which it regulates mycelia maturation.

Project description:Despite the need to enhance feed production for monogastric farm animals, this challenge is complicated by the fact that natural resources are becoming increasingly limited and climate protection goals have to be considered. Thus, there is a need for alternative feed sources, which are produced in a resource-efficient and sustainable manner. Valorization of low-value agricultural sidestreams by edible fungi, such as Pleurotus sapidus (PSA), has been proposed as a strategy to utilize such sidestreams as a sustainable source of feed for monogastric farm animals, because P. spp. are capable of degrading a wide array of fiber-rich substrates. In a recent study, we have demonstrated that feeding a biotechnologically produced PSA mycelium to broilers does not affect growth performance and nutrient digestibility and causes only weak effects on the cecal microbiota community, the liver transcriptome and the plasma metabolome of broilers. In order to clarify if the effect of the mycelium differs from that of the fruiting bodies, the present study investigated the effect of PSA fruiting bodies on the performance, the gut microbiome and the transcriptome and the lipid metabolism in the liver of broilers.

Project description:Submerged cultivation using low-value agro-industrial side streams allows large-scale and efficient production of fungal mycelia, which has a high nutritional value. As the dietary properties of fungal mycelia in poultry are largely unknown, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of feeding a Pleurotus sapidus (PSA) mycelium as a feed supplement on growth performance, composition of the cecal microbiota and several physiological traits including gut integrity, nutrient digestibility, liver lipids, liver transcriptome and plasma metabolome in broilers. 72 male, 1-day-old Cobb 500 broilers were randomly assigned to three different groups and fed three different adequate diets containing either 0% (PSA-0), 2.5% (PSA-2.5) and 5% (PSA-5.0) P. sapidus mycelium in a three-phase feeding system for 35 days. Each group consisted of 6 cages (replicates) with 4 broilers/cage. Body weight gain, feed intake and feed:gain ratio and apparent ileal digestibility of crude protein, ether extract and amino acids were not different between groups. Metagenomic analysis of the cecal microbiota revealed no differences between groups, except that one α-diversity metric (Shannon index) and the abundance of two low-abundance bacterial taxa (Clostridia UCG 014, Eubacteriales) differed between groups (P < 0.05). Concentrations of total and individual short-chain fatty acids in the cecal digesta and concentrations of plasma lipopolysaccharide and mRNA levels of proinflammatory genes, tight-junction proteins, and mucins in the cecum mucosa did not differ between groups. None of the plasma metabolites analyzed using targeted-metabolomics differed across the groups. Hepatic transcript profiling revealed a total of 144 transcripts to be differentially expressed between group PSA-5.0 and group PSA-0 but none of these genes was regulated greater 2-fold. Considering either the lack of effects or the very weak effects of feeding the P. sapidus mycelium in the broilers it can be concluded that inclusion of a sustainably produced fungal mycelium in broiler diets at the expense of other feed components has no negative consequences on broilers´ performance and metabolism.

Project description:Pleurotus ostreatus, an edible white-rot fungus of great commercial and nutritional value, grows by metabolizing mainly glucose and xylose, the two major sugars in lignocellulosic biomass. In this study, a comparative proteomic analysis of P. ostreatus grown in submerged fermentation on medium with glucose, xylose and mixtures of them as carbon sources was conducted. In the same conditions, the metabolic response of the fungus was evaluated in the production of the main nutritional components of the fungus such as proteins, lipids, intracellular and extracellular polysaccharides. Xylose is found to up-regulate the tricarboxylic acid cycle whereas glucose upregulates the glycolysis cycle. An analysis of the upregulated proteins through the STRING database revealed that xylose upregulates mostly proteins related to amino acid biosynthesis. Leucine, Valine and Isoleucine biosynthesis pathways were found to be the most triggered pathway. These findings provide new insights into the proteomic and metabolic response of the fungus to the major sugars of lignocellulosic biomass. Based on these results, the metabolism of P. ostreatus could be turned towards a specific biological process using a suitable substrate. In addition, from proteomic analysis, strategies for genetic engineering of the strain could be adopted aiming to enhance protein expression, secretion and biotechnological-related pathways of the strain, a very constructive tool for the food industry.
