  • Comparison of Strand-Specific Transcriptomes Of
    Landstorfer et al. BMC Genomics 2014, 15:353 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/15/353 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Comparison of strand-specific transcriptomes of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 EDL933 (EHEC) under eleven different environmental conditions including radish sprouts and cattle feces Richard Landstorfer1, Svenja Simon2, Steffen Schober3, Daniel Keim2, Siegfried Scherer1 and Klaus Neuhaus1* Abstract Background: Multiple infection sources for enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EHEC) are known, including animal products, fruit and vegetables. The ecology of this pathogen outside its human host is largely unknown and one third of its annotated genes are still hypothetical. To identify genetic determinants expressed under a variety of environmental factors, we applied strand-specific RNA-sequencing, comparing the SOLiD and Illumina systems. Results: Transcriptomes of EHEC were sequenced under 11 different biotic and abiotic conditions: LB medium at pH4, pH7, pH9, or at 15°C; LB with nitrite or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole; LB-agar surface, M9 minimal medium, spinach leaf juice, surface of living radish sprouts, and cattle feces. Of 5379 annotated genes in strain EDL933 (genome and plasmid), a surprising minority of only 144 had null sequencing reads under all conditions. We therefore developed a statistical method to distinguish weakly transcribed genes from background transcription. We find that 96% of all genes and 91.5% of the hypothetical genes exhibit a significant transcriptional signal under at least one condition. Comparing SOLiD and Illumina systems, we find a high correlation between both approaches for fold-changes of the induced or repressed genes. The pathogenicity island LEE showed highest transcriptional activity in LB medium, minimal medium, and after treatment with antibiotics.

  • Enzymatic Synthesis of L-Fucose from L-Fuculose Using a Fucose Isomerase
    Kim et al. Biotechnol Biofuels (2019) 12:282 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13068-019-1619-0 Biotechnology for Biofuels RESEARCH Open Access Enzymatic synthesis of L-fucose from L-fuculose using a fucose isomerase from Raoultella sp. and the biochemical and structural analyses of the enzyme In Jung Kim1†, Do Hyoung Kim1†, Ki Hyun Nam1,2 and Kyoung Heon Kim1* Abstract Background: L-Fucose is a rare sugar with potential uses in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. The enzymatic approach using L-fucose isomerase, which interconverts L-fucose and L-fuculose, can be an efcient way of producing L-fucose for industrial applications. Here, we performed biochemical and structural analyses of L-fucose isomerase identifed from a novel species of Raoultella (RdFucI). Results: RdFucI exhibited higher enzymatic activity for L-fuculose than for L-fucose, and the rate for the reverse reaction of converting L-fuculose to L-fucose was higher than that for the forward reaction of converting L-fucose to L-fuculose. In the equilibrium mixture, a much higher proportion of L-fucose (~ ninefold) was achieved at 30 °C and pH 7, indicating that the enzyme-catalyzed reaction favors the formation of L-fucose from L-fuculose. When biochemical analysis was conducted using L-fuculose as the substrate, the optimal conditions for RdFucI activity were determined to be 40 °C and pH 10. However, the equilibrium composition was not afected by reaction temperature in the range 2 of 30 to 50 °C. Furthermore, RdFucI was found to be a metalloenzyme requiring Mn + as a cofactor. The comparative crystal structural analysis of RdFucI revealed the distinct conformation of α7–α8 loop of RdFucI.

  • The Secreted L-Arabinose Isomerase Displays Anti-Hyperglycemic Effects
    Rhimi et al. Microb Cell Fact (2015) 14:204 DOI 10.1186/s12934-015-0391-5 Microbial Cell Factories RESEARCH Open Access The secreted L‑arabinose isomerase displays anti‑hyperglycemic effects in mice Moez Rhimi1,2*, Luis G. Bermudez‑Humaran3,4, Yuan Huang1,2, Samira Boudebbouze1,2, Nadia Gaci1,2, Alexandrine Garnier1,2, Jean‑Jacques Gratadoux3,4, Héla Mkaouar1,2, Philippe Langella3,4 and Emmanuelle Maguin1,2* Abstract Background: The L-arabinose isomerase is an intracellular enzyme which converts L-arabinose into L-ribulose in living systems and D-galactose into D-tagatose in industrial processes and at industrial scales. D-tagatose is a natural ketohex‑ ose with potential uses in pharmaceutical and food industries. The D-galactose isomerization reaction is thermody‑ namically equilibrated, and leads to secondary subproducts at high pH. Therefore, an attractive L-arabinose isomerase should be thermoactive and acidotolerant with high catalytic efficiency. While many reports focused on the set out of a low cost process for the industrial production of D-tagatose, these procedures remain costly. When compared to intracellular enzymes, the production of extracellular ones constitutes an interesting strategy to increase the suitabil‑ ity of the biocatalysts. Results: The L-arabinose isomerase (L-AI) from Lactobacillus sakei was expressed in Lactococcus lactis in fusion with the signal peptide of usp45 (SPUsp45). The L-AI protein and activity were detected only in the supernatant of the induced cultures of the recombinant L. lactis demonstrating the secretion in the medium of the intracellular L. sakei L-AI in an active form. Moreover, we showed an improvement in the enzyme secretion using either (1) L.

These authors contributed equally to this work. y Received: 31 October 2019; Accepted: 18 November 2019; Published: 20 November 2019 Abstract: Dickeya sp., a plant pathogen, causing soft rot with strong pectin degradation capacity was taken for the comprehensive analysis of its corresponding biomass degradative system, which has not been analyzed yet. Whole genome sequence analysis of the isolated soft-rotten plant pathogen Dickeya sp. WS52, revealed various coding genes which involved in vegetable stalk degradation-related properties. A total of 122 genes were found to be encoded for putative carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZy) in Dickeya sp. WS52. The number of pectin degradation-related genes, was higher than that of cellulolytic bacteria as well as other Dickeya spp.
