BETO 2021 Peer Review - Continuous Enzymatic Hydrolysis Development (CEHD) WBS 2.4.1.101

The Continuous Enzymatic Hydrolysis Development (CEHD) project aims to reduce the cost and commercialization scale-up risks of biorefinery sugar-lignin production through development of a deployable continuous enzymatic hydrolysis (CEH) process. Through the use of external cross flow membrane filtration loops coupled to enzymatic hydrolysis (EH) reactors, pretreated biomass solids and enzymes are retained for reaction while solubilized product sugars are removed in situ, with high extents of conversion achieved through a series of reactor-membrane unit stages. The CEHD project is focused on advancing CEH as a transformational, process-intensified, lower-cost method for producing soluble clarified biomass sugars and insoluble lignin-rich streams than traditional batch enzymatic hydrolysis (BEH). The project's primary objective is to reduce the cost of CEH to be compellingly lower than conventional BEH, 10% lower in year 1 and 20% lower in year 3 (end of project). A related objective is to expand CEH's operating envelope to increase process efficiency. Through more thorough de-risking and demonstration of CEH, in conjunction with building a suite of modeling and optimization tools that allow for more facile rigorous in silico evaluation of novel CEH designs and modalities, this project intends to elevate industry interest in adopting CEH as an improvement over conventional batch processing. This project was merit reviewed in FY20. It's now in its first year of a new 3-year plan spanning FY21-FY23.

The anaerobic fungus Neocallimastix californiae shifts metabolism and produces melanin in response to lignin-derived aromatic compounds

Biological deconstruction of lignocellulose for sustainable chemical production offers an opportunity to harness evolutionarily specialized enzymes and organisms for industrial bioprocessing. While hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicellulose by CAZymes yields fermentable sugars, ligninolysis releases a heterogeneous mix of aromatic compounds that likely play a crucial role in shaping microbial communities and microbial metabolism. Here, we interrogated the metabolomic and transcriptomic response of a lignocellulolytic anaerobic fungus, Neocallimastix californiae, to a heterogeneous mixture of aromatic compounds derived from lignin. Through exposing the fungus to both a concentration it might experience in its native environment and an elevated concentration of alkaline lignin, we observe that N. californiae transforms vanillin and that supplying alkaline lignin at 0.125 g/L, alongside cellulose, enhances the growth and polysaccharide-degrading activity of N. californiae. Altogether, our results further suggest that vanillin consumption, increased polymer-degrading activity, increased metabolic activity, and transcriptomic remodeling of amino acid synthesis genes all coincide with increased melanin production by fungal cells. These observations challenge previous notions that aromatics from lignocellulose only inhibit the growth and polymer deconstruction capabilities of the biomass-degrading anaerobic fungi (Neocallimastigomycetes). This study demonstrates that anaerobic fungi have a complex relationship with aromatic chemicals derived from lignin and hemicellulose and shift their metabolism in response to the addition of lignocellulose-derived aromatics to their growth medium. Further, as no known pathways for the biochemical transformation of aromatics were detected in these organisms despite observed transcriptome remodeling in the presence of aromatics, we suggest they might encode novel biochemical routes for scavenging amino acid building blocks from aromatic monomers derived from hemicellulose side chains and lignin.

Integration of pH Control into Chi.Bio Reactors and Demonstration with Small-Scale Enzymatic Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Hydrolysis

Small-scale bioreactors that are affordable and accessible would be of major benefit to the research community. In previous work, an open-source, automated bioreactor system was designed to operate up to the 30 mL scale with online optical monitoring, stirring, and temperature control, and this system, dubbed Chi.Bio, is now commercially available at a cost that is typically 1–2 orders of magnitude less than commercial bioreactors. In this work, we further expand the capabilities of the Chi.Bio system by enabling continuous pH monitoring and control through hardware and software modifications. For hardware modifications, we sourced low-cost, commercial pH circuits and made straightforward modifications to the Chi.Bio head plate to enable continuous pH monitoring. For software integration, we introduced closed-loop feedback control of the pH measured inside the Chi.Bio reactors and integrated a pH-control module into the existing Chi.Bio user interface. We demonstrated the utility of pH control through the small-scale depolymerization of the synthetic polyester, poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), using a benchmark cutinase enzyme, and compared this to 250 mL bioreactor hydrolysis reactions. The results in terms of PET conversion and rate, measured both by base addition and product release profiles, are statistically equivalent, with the Chi.Bio system allowing for a 20-fold reduction of purified enzyme required relative to the 250 mL bioreactor setup. Through inexpensive modifications, the ability to conduct pH control in Chi.Bio reactors widens the potential slate of biochemical reactions and biological cultivations for study in this system, and may also be adapted for use in other bioreactor platforms.

Kinetics Modeling for Design of Continuous Enzymatic Hydrolysis

Enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose to monomeric sugars continues to be a limiting step in cost-effectively producing sugar and fermentation-based biofuels from biomass. In particular, the high cost of enzymes coupled with the long time-scale of reaction pose challenges to economic viability. Performing enzymatic hydrolysis in a continuous mode with enzyme recycle may provide a path towards substantially reduced costs for sugar production, but design and analysis are complicated by a lack of suitable kinetics models. Computationally attainable models, such as fractal-based models, require knowledge of the reaction-history of the biomass, and are thus only suitable for describing the batch reactions from which they are derived. Fundamental models, while potentially more generalizable, are often too computationally intensive to use in process or reactor modeling. In this work, a phenomenological rate model is proposed based on a two-phase substrate representation. Good agreement is seen between batch and continuous enzymatic hydrolysis (CEH) experiment data, which validates the model and enables us to solve for reactor design parameters, such as CEH reactor size and stream flow rates, based on process variables like yield. This model is integrated with techno-economic analysis software to explore economic sensitivities. Important design optimizations and tradeoffs are identified and quantified, including the relative cost imposed by rate slowdown from sugar inhibition versus the cost to remove and concentrate sugars at a lower concentration. It also identifies, high-leverage avenues for further exploration, such as increasing the maximum feasible solids concentration, and sustaining high membrane flux and reliability.

EstG is a novel esterase required for cell envelope integrity in Caulobacter

Proper regulation of the bacterial cell envelope is critical for cell survival. Identification and characterization of enzymes that maintain cell envelope homeostasis is crucial, as they can be targets for effective antibiotics. In this study, we have identified a novel enzyme, called EstG, whose activity protects cells from a variety of lethal assaults in the α-proteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus. Despite homology to transpeptidase family cell wall enzymes and an ability to protect against cell-wall-targeting antibiotics, EstG does not demonstrate biochemical activity toward cell wall substrates. Instead, EstG is genetically connected to the periplasmic enzymes OpgH and BglX, responsible for synthesis and hydrolysis of osmoregulated periplasmic glucans (OPGs), respectively. The crystal structure of EstG revealed similarities to esterases and transesterases, and we demonstrated esterase activity of EstG in vitro. Using biochemical fractionation, we identified a cyclic hexamer of glucose as a likely substrate of EstG. Further, this molecule is the first OPG described in Caulobacter and establishes a novel class of OPGs, the regulation and modification of which are important for stress survival and adaptation to fluctuating environments. Our data indicate that EstG, BglX, and OpgH comprise a previously unknown OPG pathway in Caulobacter. Ultimately, we propose that EstG is a novel enzyme that instead of acting on the cell wall, acts on cyclic OPGs to provide resistance to a variety of cellular stresses.

One fold, many functions—M23 family of peptidoglycan hydrolases

Bacterial cell walls are the guards of cell integrity. They are composed of peptidoglycan that provides rigidity to sustain internal turgor and ensures isolation from the external environment. In addition, they harbor the enzymatic machinery to secure cell wall modulations needed throughout the bacterial lifespan. The main players in this process are peptidoglycan hydrolases, a large group of enzymes with diverse specificities and different mechanisms of action. They are commonly, but not exclusively, found in prokaryotes. Although in most cases, these enzymes share the same molecular function, namely peptidoglycan hydrolysis, they are leveraged to perform a variety of physiological roles. A well-investigated family of peptidoglycan hydrolases is M23 peptidases, which display a very conserved fold, but their spectrum of lytic action is broad and includes both Gram- positive and Gram- negative bacteria. In this review, we summarize the structural, biochemical, and functional studies concerning the M23 family of peptidases based on literature and complement this knowledge by performing large-scale analyses of available protein sequences. This review has led us to gain new insight into the role of surface charge in the activity of this group of enzymes. We present relevant conclusions drawn from the analysis of available structures and indicate the main structural features that play a crucial role in specificity determination and mechanisms of latency. Our work systematizes the knowledge of the M23 family enzymes in the context of their unique antimicrobial potential against drug-resistant pathogens and presents possibilities to modulate and engineer their features to develop perfect antibacterial weapons.

Unlocking soybean meal pectin recalcitrance using a multi-enzyme cocktail approach

Pectin is a complex plant heteropolysaccharide whose structure and function differ depending on its source. In animal feed, breaking down pectin is essential, as its presence increases feed viscosity and reduces nutrient absorption. Soybean meal, a protein-rich poultry feed ingredient, contains significant amounts of pectin, the structure of which remains unclear. Consequently, the enzyme activities required to degrade soybean meal pectin and how they interact are still open questions. In this study, we produced 15 recombinant fungal carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) identified from fungal secretomes acting on pectin. After observing that these enzymes were not active on soybean meal pectin when used alone, we developed a semi-miniaturized method to evaluate their effect as multi-activity cocktails. We designed and tested 12 enzyme pools, containing up to 15 different CAZymes, using several hydrolysis markers. Thanks to our multiactivity enzymatic approach combined with a Pearson correlation matrix, we identified 10 fungal CAZymes efficient on soybean meal pectin, 9 of which originate from Talaromyces versatilis. Based on enzyme specificity and linkage analysis, we propose a structural model for soybean meal pectin. Our findings underscore the importance of combining CAZymes to improve the degradation of agricultural co-products.

How KRAS Mutations Impair Intrinsic GTP Hydrolysis: Experimental and Computational Investigations

Oncogenic KRAS mutations impair GTP hydrolysis and increase the active GTP-bound KRAS population, which leads to growth-factor-independent cell proliferation and survival of cancer cells. Despite notable successes of small-molecule inhibitors in the treatment of KRASG12C cancer, many of these small-molecule inhibitors preferentially bind to inactive (GDP-bound) mutant KRAS, whose availability is limited by the slow rate of intrinsic GTP hydrolysis. A better understanding of how KRAS mutations impair intrinsic hydrolysis is important for designing more effective small-molecule therapeutics. In this work, experimental and computational approaches were utilized to investigate how the most important oncogenic mutations affect the intrinsic hydrolysis of GTP. Here, we found that Q61H, G12V, and G12R mutations impair intrinsic hydrolysis by around 7-fold, 9-fold, and more than 20-fold, respectively, whereas G12A, G12C, G12D, and G13D have less effect. Based on mechanistic investigations, we propose that KRAS mutations impair intrinsic hydrolysis by disrupting the interactions needed to align the nucleophilic water molecule with GTP for nucleophilic attack. These results can assist small-molecule inhibitor design and also benefit the development of other therapeutic strategies, such as rescuing hydrolysis.

Chlorophyllase from Arabidopsis thaliana Reveals an Emerging Model for Controlling Chlorophyll Hydrolysis

Chlorophyll (Chl) is one of Nature’s most complex pigments to biosynthesize and derivatize. This pigment is vital for survival and also paradoxically toxic if overproduced or released from a protective protein scaffold. Therefore, along with the mass production of Chl, organisms also invest in mechanisms to control its degradation and recycling. One important enzyme that is involved in these latter processes is chlorophyllase. This enzyme is employed by numerous photosynthetic organisms to hydrolyze the phytol tail of Chl. Although traditionally thought to catalyze the first step of Chl degradation, recent work suggests that chlorophyllase is instead employed during times of abiotic stress or conditions that produce reactive oxygen species. However, the molecular details regarding how chlorophyllases are regulated to function under such conditions remain enigmatic. Here, we investigate the Arabidopsis thaliana chlorophyllase isoform AtCLH2 using site-directed mutagenesis, mass spectrometry, dynamic light scattering, size-exclusion multiangle light scattering, and both steady-state enzyme kinetic and thermal stability measurements. Through these experiments, we show that AtCLH2 exists as a monomer in solution and contains two disulfide bonds. One disulfide bond putatively maps to the active site, whereas the other links two N-terminal Cys residues together. These disulfide bonds are cleaved by chemical or chemical and protein-based reductants, respectively, and are integral to maintaining the activity, stability, and substrate scope of the enzyme. This work suggests that Cys residue oxidation in chlorophyllases is an emerging regulatory strategy for controlling the hydrolysis of Chl pigments.

Hydrolysis of Acetamide on Low-Index CeO 2 Surfaces: Ceria as a Deamidation and General De-esterification Catalyst

Using DFT calculations and acetamide as the main example, we show that ceria is a potential catalyst for the hydrolysis of amide and similar bonds. The overall reaction is endergonic in the gas phase, yielding acetic acid and ammonia, but is slightly exergonic in the aqueous phase, which facilitates ionization of the products (CH 3 COO – and NH 4 + ). Neighboring Ce and O sites on the CeO 2 (111), (110), and (100) facets are conducive to the formation of an activated metastable tetrahedral intermediate (TI) complex, followed by C–N bond scission. With van der Waals and solvation effects taken into account, the overall reaction energetics is found to be most favorable on the (111) facet as desorption of acetic acid is much more uphill energetically on (110) and (100). We further suggest that the Ce–O–Ce sites on ceria surfaces can activate X(=Y)–Z type bonds in amides, amidines, and carboxylate and phosphate esters, among many others that we term “generalized esters”. A Brønsted-Evans–Polanyi relationship is identified correlating the stability of the transition and final states of the X–Z generalized ester bond scission. A simple descriptor (ΣΔχ) based on the electronegativity of the atoms that constitute the bond (X, Y, Z) versus those of the catalytic site (O, Ce, Ce) captures the trend in the stability of the transition state of generalized ester bond scission and suggests a direction for modifying ceria for targeting specific organic substrates.

Comparative performance of PETase as a function of reaction conditions, substrate properties, and product accumulation

There is keen interest to develop new technologies to recycle the plastic poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET). To this end, the use of PET-hydrolyzing enzymes has shown promise for PET deconstruction to its monomers, terephthalate (TPA) and ethylene glycol (EG). Here, we compare the Ideonella sakaiensis PETase wild-type enzyme to a previously reported improved variant (W159H/S238F). We compare the thermostability of each enzyme and describe a 1.45 Å resolution structure of the mutant, highlighting changes in the substrate binding cleft compared to the wild-type enzyme. Subsequently, the performance of the wild-type and variant enzyme was compared as a function of temperature, substrate morphology, and reaction mixture composition. These studies show that reaction temperature has the strongest influence on performance between the two enzymes. We also show that both enzymes achieve higher levels of PET conversion for substrates with moderate crystallinity relative to amorphous substrates. Finally, we assess the impact of product accumulation on reaction progress for the hydrolysis of both PET and bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET). Each enzyme displays different inhibition profiles to mono(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (MHET) and TPA, while both are sensitive to inhibition by EG. Overall, this work highlights the importance of reaction conditions, substrate selection, and product accumulation for catalytic performance of PET-hydrolyzing enzymes, which have implications for enzyme screening in the development of enzyme-based polyester recycling.

Understanding the Effects of Ash Content on Various Pretreatment Technologies for the Bioconversion of Corn Stover

Here, the study aimed to examine the effects of adding biomass ash on the biochemical processes involved in fermentable sugar production. Corn stover was pretreated using several methods—hot water, dilute acid, alkaline, γ-valerolactone, and ionic liquid methods, each examined with ash loadings of 7.18% and 21.07%. The findings demonstrated that increased ash content adversely affected both pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis. Specifically, the total sugar yield was 3 to 16% lower at the higher ash content across all pretreatment methods, and up to 4.01% lower during enzymatic hydrolysis. For acidic pretreatment, the sugar yield decreased as ash content increased. In contrast, ash content had a lesser impact on alkaline pretreatment compared to acidic pretreatment. For example, using corn stover with an ash content as high as 22.65% resulted in only a 2.90% decrease in total sugar yield compared to corn stover without added ash. Further, the primary reasons for the reduced sugar yield in higher ash biomass during acidic pretreatments were likely the neutralizing effect of the ash and decreased acid access to the substrates. During enzymatic hydrolysis, ash reduced the sugar yield by limiting enzyme access to cellulose.

Project Methods to Enhance Wellbore Cement Integrity with Microbially-Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) (Final Scientific/Technical Report)

The goal of this project was to develop improved methods for sealing compromised wellbore cement in leaking oil and gas wells, thereby reducing the risk of unwanted upward fluid migration. Novel methods for improving wellbore integrity, such as microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP), can reduce leakage potential, improve the safety of fossil fuel extraction, improve the public perception of hydraulic fracturing, and promote environmentally-prudent unconventional oil and gas development. Microbes, with the urease enzyme, can catalyze the chemical reaction of urea hydrolysis to induce the precipitation of calcium carbonate which can be used as a cementitious material to seal leakage pathways. In this project, methods to promote robust bio-composite cementitious materials were designed and tested in the laboratory. Scale-up of those methods were tested in meso-scale reactor systems and in field applications. In this report, in Section One, we describe laboratory efforts to develop injection strategies to promote precipitation in wellbore analogs and determine the strength of the bio-composite cements as compared to fine cement. In Section Two, we describe the efforts to scale up the work and study the use of materials that can be used in field application, for example exploring the use of calcium chloride ice melt or urea fertilizer as source chemicals. In Section Three, the three field trials (methods and results) performed as part of the project are described and summarized. At the end of the report is a comprehensive summary and conclusion section which highlights the key findings of the project. The work performed during this project significantly advanced the technology readiness level (TRL) of the MICP wellbore sealing strategy.

Continuous Enzymatic Hydrolysis Development for Improved Saccharification Performance

The Continuous Enzymatic Hydrolysis Development (CEHD) project aims to reduce the cost and commercialization risks of Gen2 biorefinery sugar/lignin/ethanol production through development of a deployable continuous enzymatic hydrolysis process. Recent changes in the technical landscape of commercial enzymatic hydrolysis of Gen2 pretreated biomass dictate that the existing hybrid SSF approach be reconsidered. Most importantly, the current practice of "finishing hydrolysis" in SSF must be abandoned due to the fact that new cellulase/hemicellulose formulations from Novozymes, now the sole supplier of commercial Gen2 enzymes in North America, are now not rated for SSF (see NZ CTec3HS product bulletin). We have recently developed bench scale CEH tools to optimize saccharification of DMR pretreated biomass where, unlike SSF with yeast or Zymomonas, the pH, temperature, oxygen tension, LPMO mediator concentration, and/or removal of end-product inhibitors can be precisely controlled. In scale up, the goal is to use existing commercial cross flow ceramic membrane filtration external loops coupled to enzymatic hydrolysis (EH) reactors. Pretreated biomass solids and enzymes are retained for reaction while solubilized product sugars are removed in situ, with high extents of conversion and longer enzyme lifetimes achieved through a series of reactor-membrane unit stages. The CEHD project is focused on advancing CEH as a transformational, process-intensified, lower-cost method for producing soluble clarified biomass sugars and insoluble lignin-rich streams.

Quantitative Analysis of The High‐Yield Hydrolysis of Kelp by Laminarinase and Alginate Lyase

Abstract Kelp is an abundant, farmable biomass‐containing laminarin and alginate as major polysaccharides, providing an excellent model substrate to study their deconstruction by simple enzyme mixtures. Our previous study showed strong reactivity of the glycoside hydrolase family 55 during hydrolysis of purified laminarin, raising the question of its reactivity with intact kelp. In this study, we determined that a combination of a single glycoside hydrolase family 55 β‐1,3‐exoglucanase with a broad‐specificity alginate lyase from the polysaccharide lyase family 18 gives efficient hydrolysis of untreated kelp to a mixture of simple sugars, that is, glucose, gentiobiose, mannitol‐end glucose, and mannuronic and guluronic acids and their soluble oligomers. Quantitative assignments from nanostructure initiator mass spectrometry (NIMS) and 2D HSQC NMR spectroscopy and analysis of the reaction time‐course are provided. The data suggest that binary combinations of enzymes targeted to the unique polysaccharide composition of marine biomass are sufficient to deconstruct kelp into soluble sugars for microbial fermentation.

Mapping the determinants of catalysis and substrate specificity of the antibiotic resistance enzyme CTX-M β-lactamase

Abstract CTX-M β-lactamases are prevalent antibiotic resistance enzymes and are notable for their ability to rapidly hydrolyze the extended-spectrum cephalosporin, cefotaxime. We hypothesized that the active site sequence requirements of CTX-M-mediated hydrolysis differ between classes of β-lactam antibiotics. Accordingly, we use codon randomization, antibiotic selection, and deep sequencing to determine the CTX-M active-site residues required for hydrolysis of cefotaxime and the penicillin, ampicillin. The study reveals positions required for hydrolysis of all β-lactams, as well as residues controlling substrate specificity. Further, CTX-M enzymes poorly hydrolyze the extended-spectrum cephalosporin, ceftazidime. We further show that the sequence requirements for ceftazidime hydrolysis follow those of cefotaxime, with the exception that key active-site omega loop residues are not required, and may be detrimental, for ceftazidime hydrolysis. These results provide insights into cephalosporin hydrolysis and demonstrate that changes to the active-site omega loop are likely required for the evolution of CTX-M-mediated ceftazidime resistance.
