The ratio of substrate to catalyst (S/C) is a prime target for the application of asymmetric production of enantiomerically enriched intermediates by whole-cell biocatalyst. In the present study, an attractive increase in S/C was achieved in a natural deep-eutectic solvent (NADES) containing reaction system under microaerobic condition for high production of (S)-1-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]ethanol ((S)-3,5-BTPE) with Candida tropicalis 104. In PBS buffer (0.2 M, pH 8.0) at 200 rpm and 30 °C, 79.5 g (Dry Cell Weight, DCW)/L C. tropicalis 104 maintained the same yield of 73.7% for the bioreduction of 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)acetophenone (BTAP) under an oxygen-deficient environment compared with oxygen-sufficient conditions, while substrate load increased 4.0-fold (from 50 mM to 200 mM). Furthermore, when choline chloride:trehalose (ChCl:T, 1:1 molar ratio) was introduced into the reaction system for its versatility of increasing cell membrane permeability and declining BTAP cytotoxicity to biocatalyst, the yields were further increased to 86.2% under 200 mM BTAP, or 72.9% at 300 mM BTAP. After the optimization of various reaction parameters involved in the bioreduction, and the amount of biocatalyst and maltose co-substrate remained 79.5 g (DCW)/L and 50 g/L, the S/C for the reduction elevated 6.3 times (3.8 mM/g versus 0.6 mM/g). By altering the respiratory pattern of the whole-cell biocatalyst and exploiting the ChCl:T-containing reaction system, the developed strategy exhibits an attractive potential for enhancing catalytic efficiency of whole-cell-mediated reduction, and provides valuable insight for the development of whole-cell catalysis.

Endo-1,4-β-xylanase (E.C.3.2.1.8) is a family of glycoside hydrolase. It is capable of hydrolyzing the backbone of substituted xylan polymers into fragments of random size. Due to this ability, xylanase can serve the degradation of lignocellulose, and facilitate the application of xylan. Cell-surface display of enzymes is one of the most attractive applications in yeast. It is a promising utilization in constructing the whole-cell biocatalyst of xylanase. For this purpose, a cDNA sequence of endo-1,4-β-xylanase B (XylB) from Aspergillus niger BCC14405 was optimized and synthesized according to the codon bias of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The genes encoding galactokinase (GAL1) promoter, α-mating factor 1 (MFα1) pre-pro secretion signal, fully codon-optimized XylB, the 320 amino acids of C terminal of α-agglutinin, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH1) terminator and kanMX cassette were amplified and cloned into YEplac181 to construct a cell-surface display vector called pGMAAK-XylB with α-agglutinin as an anchor. Then pGMAAK-XylB was transformed into S. cerevisiae. The results show XylB was immobilized and actively expressed on S. cerevisiae. Meanwhile, a secretion expression plasmid was also constructed using the above elements except α-agglutinin as a control strain in the study of characteristic of XylB. After an induction of 48 h by 2% galactose, the activity of displayed XylB reached 63 U/g dry-cell weight. The optimal pH of displayed XylB has changed from 5 to 6 and the optimal temperature has changed from 50 °C to 60 °C, comparing to the recombinant secretion XylB.

Abstractε-Caprolactone is a monomer of poly(ε-caprolactone) which has been widely used in tissue engineering due to its biodegradability and biocompatibility. To meet the massive demand for this monomer, an efficient whole-cell biocatalytic approach was constructed to boost the ε-caprolactone production using cyclohexanol as substrate. Combining an alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) with a cyclohexanone monooxygenase (CHMO) in Escherichia coli, a self-sufficient NADPH-cofactor regeneration system was obtained. Furthermore, some improved variants with the better substrate tolerance and higher catalytic ability to ε-caprolactone production were designed by regulating the ribosome binding sites. The best mutant strain exhibited an ε-caprolactone yield of 0.80 mol/mol using 60 mM cyclohexanol as substrate, while the starting strain only got a conversion of 0.38 mol/mol when 20 mM cyclohexanol was supplemented. The engineered whole-cell biocatalyst was used in four sequential batches to achieve a production of 126 mM ε-caprolactone with a high molar yield of 0.78 mol/mol.
