  • Thermophilic Fungi: Taxonomy and Biogeography

Aneja2 1Department of Biotechnology, Chaudhary Devi Lal University, Sirsa – 125 055, India 2Department of Microbiology, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra – 136 119, India Salar, R. K. and Aneja, K.R. (2007) Thermophilic Fungi: Taxonomy and Biogeography. Journal of Agricultural Technology 3(1): 77-107. A critical reappraisal of taxonomic status of known thermophilic fungi indicating their natural occurrence and methods of isolation and culture was undertaken. Altogether forty-two species of thermophilic fungi viz., five belonging to Zygomycetes, twenty-three to Ascomycetes and fourteen to Deuteromycetes (Anamorphic Fungi) are described. The taxa delt with are those most commonly cited in the literature of fundamental and applied work. Latest legal valid names for all the taxa have been used. A key for the identification of thermophilic fungi is given. Data on geographical distribution and habitat for each isolate is also provided. The specimens deposited at IMI bear IMI number/s. The document is a sound footing for future work of indentification and nomenclatural interests. To solve residual problems related to nomenclatural status, further taxonomic work is however needed. Key Words: Biodiversity, ecology, identification key, taxonomic description, status, thermophile Introduction Thermophilic fungi are a small assemblage in eukaryota that have a unique mechanism of growing at elevated temperature extending up to 60 to 62°C. During the last four decades many species of thermophilic fungi sporulating at 45oC have been reported. The species included in this account are only those which are thermophilic in the sense of Cooney and Emerson (1964).

  • Assembly of Lipase and P450 Fatty Acid Decarboxylase to Constitute A
    Yan et al. Biotechnology for Biofuels (2015) 8:34 DOI 10.1186/s13068-015-0219-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Assembly of lipase and P450 fatty acid decarboxylase to constitute a novel biosynthetic pathway for production of 1-alkenes from renewable triacylglycerols and oils Jinyong Yan1*, Yi Liu1,2, Cong Wang1, Bingnan Han3 and Shengying Li1* Abstract Background: Biogenic hydrocarbons (biohydrocarbons) are broadly accepted to be the ideal ‘drop-in’ biofuel alternative to petroleum-based fuels due to their highly similar chemical composition and physical characteristics. The biological production of aliphatic hydrocarbons is largely dependent on engineering of the complicated enzymatic network surrounding fatty acid biosynthesis. Result: In this work, we developed a novel system for bioproduction of terminal fatty alkenes (1-alkenes) from renewable and low-cost triacylglycerols (TAGs) based on the lipase hydrolysis coupled to the P450 catalyzed decarboxylation. This artificial biosynthetic pathway was constituted using both cell-free systems including purified enzymes or cell-free extracts, and cell-based systems including mixed resting cells or growing cells. The issues of high cost of fatty acid feedstock and complicated biosynthesis network were addressed by replacement of the de novo biosynthesized fatty acids with the fed cheap TAGs. This recombinant tandem enzymatic pathway consisting of the Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (Tll) and the P450 fatty acid decarboxylase OleTJE resulted in the production of 1-alkenes from purified TAGs or natural oils with 6.7 to 46.0% yields. Conclusion: Since this novel hydrocarbon-producing pathway only requires two catalytically efficient enzymatic steps, it may hold great potential for industrial application by fulfilling the large-scale and cost-effective conversion of renewable TAGs into biohydrocarbons.

Lipase showed optimum activity at T = 40 ◦C. The produced lipase extract was purified 17.03-folds with a recovery of 1% after gel chromatography. Three different batch experiments were performed in order to test the possibility of using the lipase in biodiesel production. Experiments were performed with a commercial, unpurified enzyme, and partially purified lipase with sunflower oil and methanol as substrates in a batch reactor at 40 ◦C. During the experiments, the operational stability of the enzyme was studied.

The effects of some crucial factors on the immobilization efficiency were investigated and the optimal protein loading and activity recovery were found to be 156.4 mg/g and 90.9%, respectively. Characterization studies revealed that Fe3O4@PDA@TLL displayed a broader pH and temperature adaptability as compared to the free TLL, which allows its use at wider ranges of reaction conditions. With regard to the stabilities, the immobilized TLL clearly displayed improved pH, thermal, and solvent tolerance stabilities compared to the free enzyme, suggesting that the biocompatible Fe3O4@PDA might be an outstanding material for immobilizing TLL and acting as alternative support for different enzymes.

Fax: 34-91-5854760; E-mail: [email protected]; http://www.icp.csic.es/abg 1 Enzyme and Microbial Technology (2005) 36, 391-398 ABSTRACT The lipases from Thermomyces lanuginosus (immobilized by granulation with silica) and Candida antarctica B (adsorbed on Lewatit, "Novozym 435") were comparatively assayed for the synthesis of sugar esters by transesterification of sugars with fatty acid vinyl esters in 2-methyl-2-butanol:dimethylsulfoxide mixtures. We found that lipase from C. antarctica B is particularly useful for the preparation of 6,6’-di- acylsucrose, whereas T. lanuginosus lipase catalyzes selectively the synthesis of 6-O- acylsucrose. The granulated T. lanuginosus lipase retained more than 80% of its initial activity after 20 cyles of 6 hours.

  • Is the 5S RNA a Primitive Ribosomal RNA Sequence? (Ribosome/Evolutlon/Eukaryote/Gene Amplification) Ross N
    Proc. Nadl. Acad. Sci. USA Vol. 82, pp. 5608-5611, September 1985 Biochemistry Is the 5S RNA a primitive ribosomal RNA sequence? (ribosome/evolutlon/eukaryote/gene amplification) Ross N. NAZAR AND WILLIAM M. WONG Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, University of Guelph, Guelph, Canada N1G 2W1 Communicated by J. Tuzo Wilson, April 22, 1985 ABSTRACT A tandemly arranged cluster of 5S RNA-like sequence. Further comparisons also suggest that similar sequences in the middle of ribosomal 26S to 28S rRNAs from sequences are found in all rRNAs, raising an intriguing divergent eukaryotic organisms raises the possibility that the question about the evolution of the larger ribosomal RNA larger ribosomal RNAs were built up, at least in part, by gene molecules. amplification events and suggests an intriguing evolutionary relationship between the 5S rRNA and the larger rRNA molecules. MATERIALS AND METHODS DNA Preparation and Cloning. Genomic DNA was extract- The advent of recombinant DNA technology and rapid gel ed and purified from Thermomyces lanuginosus (ATCC sequencing techniques has revolutionized our understanding 16455) as described (12); the DNA was isolated from mycelia of the eukaryotic genome. The organization and structure of essentially by using the method of Cryer et al. (13) and ribosomal genes has by no means been an exception; the purified on a cesium chloride/ethidium bromide gradient. genomic organization in many organisms has already been Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ATCC 26108) genomic DNA was determined (see ref. 1) and the primary nucleotide sequences also prepared by the method of Cryer et al. except that the of high molecular weight rRNA molecules (16S to 28S DNA was not repurified on a cesium chloride/ethidium rRNAs) appear almost monthly.
