Abstract:
Thesis (MSc (Genetics. Institute for Plant Biotechnology (IPB)))--Stellenbosch University, 2008.
Dextran is a high value glucose polymer used in medicine and an array of laboratory techniques. It is synthesised by lactic-acid bacteria from sucrose but has also reportedly been produced by Gluconobacter oxydans (G. oxydans) from a range of maltooligosaccharides (MOS) via the action of dextrin dextranase (DDase). In this study the presence of DDase is investigated in two G. oxydans strains (ATCC 621H and ATCC 19357) and shown to be present in the ATCC 19357 strain, but not in the ATCC 621H strain. The enzyme was partially purified from the ATCC 19357 strain, and its kinetic properties investigated. The partially purified protein was also digested with trypsin, and de novo peptide sequences obtained from it. Several attempts were made to obtain the gene coding for the DDase. These include amplifying an open reading frame from the G. oxydans genome coding for a glycosyltransferase with the approximate molecular weight of the DDase, using the peptide sequences obtained from the partially purified protein to design degenerate PCR primers and the production of a genomic DNA library for functional screening in E. coli. None of these approaches led to the successful isolation of the extracellular DDase sequence.

Abstract:
The genus Gluconobacter is industrially important due to the ability to accomplish unusual and almost complete oxidation reactions (bioconversions) and to contaminate high sugar content products. Following preliminary evidence that some strains of Gluconobacter were resistant to cadmium, and realizing that cadmium resistance among gram-negative organisms is often encoded by an operon which also encodes cobalt and zinc resistance via an efflux mechanism, 10 strains of Gluconobacter were tested for heavy-metal resistance. Three of the 10 representative strains appeared to be resistant to cadmium chloride, and two were also resistant to cobalt- and zinc chloride. These strains, as well as two cadmium-sensitive strains were analyzed using PCR and sequencing to establish gene homology with Ralstonia eutropha, the most frequently studied Gram-negative bacterium exhibiting cadmium resistance. Amplification of two genes from the czc operon, known to encode cadmium, cobalt and zinc resistance in Ralstonia, was attempted in the three resistant and two sensitive strains of Gluconobacter. The gene, czcA, thought to encode the main pump protein of the efflux mechanism, was found in all Gluconobacter strains tested. However, amplification of a regulatory gene czcD, thought to sense the extracellular metal ion concentration, was not possible in the Gluconobacter strains tested. The PCR products were sequenced and analyzed for homology to the czc operon in Ralstonia. From the data gathered, it appears as though some strains of Gluconobacter contain at least a portion of the czc operon , encoding cadmium, cobalt and zinc resistance in Ralstonia eutropha.

Abstract:

Gluconobacter oxydans is characterized by the ability to carry out rapid, single-step oxidations of many different hydroxyl-containing compounds. These oxidations are believed to be catalyzed by the membrane-bound NAD(P)-independent dehydrogenases. Experiments were designed to use G. oxydans ATCC strain 621 to determine the contribution of these dehydrogenases in whole-cell oxidations and to determine the range of substrates that can be oxidized by the membrane fraction of these cells when grown on a single substrate. My first hypothesis was that the membranes would accomplish these oxidations at the same rate as an equivalent number of whole cells. Oxidative activity data obtained from using both oxygen uptake and tetranitroblue tetrazolium assays, however, did not support this hypothesis. I attribute this to the probability that the membranes were damaged during isolation of the membrane fraction and, therefore, were unable to exhibit full oxidative potential. My second hypothesis was that the membranes from cells grown on one substrate would oxidize many other substrates. Potassium fenicyanide was used to assay the oxidative activity of the membrane fraction of cells grown on glycerol. Of 41 substrates tested all were significantly oxidized. I concluded from these data, therefore, that the enzyme(s) responsible for the oxidation of these substrates are synthesized constitutively. Unfortunately, one cannot draw any conclusions as to whether or not these enzymes are highly substrate-specific. I speculate that one or a few enzymes show a broad range of substrate specificity, as it would be inefficient for the cell to consecutively synthesize more than forty different substrate-specific enzymes for substrates it may never encounter.

A dihidroxiacetona (DHA) é uma molécula constituída por três carbonos e não tóxica, utilizada como insumo para as indústrias de cosméticos, fármacos e química fina. É produzida industrialmente por fermentação, utilizando a bactéria Gluconobacter oxydans. Esse processo tem como principal limitação a inibição do crescimento tanto pelo substrato – glicerol – quanto pelo produto – DHA e, por tal, estudos recentes descrevem propostas para melhoria do processo. Sendo a conversão de glicerol a DHA realizada por uma única enzima em uma etapa, o presente trabalho considera que tal processo se enquadra nas definições de uma biotransformação, ou seja, a utilização de um catalisador biológico com o propósito de converter um substrato a um produto estruturalmente similar, através de modificações específicas e utilizando um número limitado de etapas enzimáticas. Dessa forma, neste estudo foram avaliados comparativamente a secagem de células em acetona e, em um segundo momento, a utilização de células de Gluconobacter oxydans previamente crescidas, para a produção de DHA a partir de glicerol. Objetivando contornar o principal problema do processo, que é a inibição do crescimento microbiano pelo substrato e pelo produto, foram testadas duas linhagens. A utilização de células secas em acetona se mostrou possível, porém os resultados não foram reprodutíveis e células previamente crescidas por 24 horas passaram a ser usadas nos experimentos de biotransformação. O pH e a temperatura de reação foram selecionados a partir de um planejamento delineamento composto central rotacional como sendo de 34ºC e pH de 4,5, para G. oxydans CCT 0552 e de 26ºC e pH de 4,5 para G. oxydans CCT 0174. A linhagem G. oxydans CCT 0552 se mostrou mais adequada à oxidação de glicerol à DHA, com aumento do acúmulo de DHA no meio reacional com o tempo (2,1 g/g biomassa) e com a produtividade constante (0,45 g/g biomassa). Foi constatada perda de atividade nas células estocadas por congelamento, o que leva à necessidade de selecionar um melhor método de conservação das células para a utilização na produção
The dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is a non-toxic molecule consisting of three carbons, used in the cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals industry. The DHA is industrially produced by fermentation, using the bacteria Gluconobacter oxydans. The main bottleneck of this process is the growth inhibition by the substrate – glycerol – and the product – DHA. This problem leads recent studies to describe proposals for improving the process. As the conversion of glycerol to DHA is performed by a single enzyme in one step, this study considers that this process fits in the definitions of biotransformation, in other words, the use of a biological catalyst in order to convert a substrate for a structurally similar products, by speficic modifications, and using a limited number of enzymatic steps. Thus, this study were assessed by comparison with drying of cells in acetone and in second stage, the use of previously grown cells of Gluconobacter oxydans for the production of DHA from glycerol. The use of dried cells proved to be possible, but the results were not reproducible and the biotransformation experiments were done with previously grown cells of 24 hours age. . The best pH and temperature for the reaction were selected from a central composite design as being 34o C and pH 4.5 for G. oxydans CCT 0552 and 26o C and pH 4.5 for G. oxydans CCT 0174. The strain G. oxydans CCT 0552 was more suitable for the oxidation of glycerol to DHA, with increased accumulation of DHA in the reaction media (2,1 g/g biomass) and constant productivity (0,45 g/g biomass). Loss of activity was observed in cells stored by freezing, which leads to the need to select a best method of preserving cells for the production

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In the last decade a need arose to find a theoretical framework capable of gaining a quantitative understanding of ecosystems. Control analysis was proposed as a suitable candidate for the analysis of ecosystems with various theoretical applications being developed, i.e. trophic control analysis (TCA) and ecological control analysis (ECA). We set out to test the latter approach through experimental means by applying techniques akin to enzyme kinetics of biochemistry on a simple ecosystem between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Gluconobacter oxydans. However, this exercise was far more complex than we originally expected due to the extra metabolic activities presented by both organisms. Nevertheless, we derived suitable kinetic equations to describe the metabolic behaviour of both organisms, with regards to the activities of interest to us, from pure culture experiments. We developed new techniques to determine ethanol and oxygen sensitivity of G. oxydans based on its obligately aerobic nature. These parameters were then used to build a simple kinetic model and a more complex model incorporating oxygen limited metabolism we observed at higher cell densities of G. oxydans. Our models could predict both situations satisfactorily for pure cultures and especially the more complex model could describe the lack of linearity observed between metabolic activity and cell density at higher cell densities of G. oxydans. Mixed populations of S. cerevisiae and G. oxydans reached quasi-steady states in terms of ethanol concentration and acetate flux, which was a positive indication for the application of control analysis on the ecosystem. However, the theoretical models based on parameters derived from pure culture experiments did not predict mixed culture steady states accurately. Careful analysis showed that these parameters were mostly under-estimated for G. oxydans and overestimated for S. cerevisiae. Hence, we calculated the kinetic parameters for mixed population assays directly from the experimental data obtained from mixed cultures. We could calculate the control coefficients directly from the experimental data of mixed population studies and compare it with those from theoretical models based on 3 different parameter sets. Our analysis showed that the yeast had all the control over the acetate flux while control over the steady-state ethanol was shared. The strength of our approach lies in designing our experiments with a control analysis approach in mind, but we have also shown that even for simple ecosystems this approach is non-trivial. Despite the various experimental challenges, this approach was very rewarding due to the extra information obtained especially regarding control structure with regards to the steady-state ethanol concentration.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In die afgelope dekade het daar ’n behoefte ontstaan na ‘n teoretiese raamwerk om tot ‘n kwantitatiewe begrip van ekosisteme te kom. As kandidaat vir so tipe raamwerk is kontrole analise voorgestel gepaardgaande met die ontwikkeling van verskeie teoretiese toepassings, i.e. trofiese kontrole analise en ekologiese kontrole analise. In hierdie tesis het ons laasgenoemde aanslag eksperimenteel ondersoek op ‘n eenvoudige ekosisteem, tussen Saccharomyces cerevisiae en Gluconobacter oxydans, deur gebruik te maak van tegnieke vanuit ensiemkinetika van biochemie. Hierdie strategie was egter baie meer kompleks as wat oorspronklik verwag is as gevolg van verdere metabolise aktiwiteite aanwesig in beide organismes. Ons het egter steeds daarin geslaag om kinetiese vergelykings af te lei, vanuit suiwer kulture, wat die metaboliese gedrag van beide organismes beskryf vir die aktiwiteite van belang vir ons studie. Ons het nuwe tegnieke, gebaseer op die aerobiese natuur van G. oxydans, ontwikkel om die sensitiwiteit van G. oxydans vir etanol en suurstof te bepaal. Hierdie parameters is gebruik om eers ’n eenvoudige model en toe ‘n meer gevorderde model, wat die suurstof-beperkte metabolisme van G. oxydans by hoër biomassa te beskryf, op te stel. Beide modelle was baie effektief in die voorspelling van die situasies waarvoor hulle ontwikkel is vir die suiwer kulture waar veral die meer gevorderde model die gebrek aan ‘n linieêre verband tussen die metabolisme van G. oxydans en biomassa by hoër biomassa kon beskryf. ’n Bemoedigende aanduiding dat kontrole analise toegepas kon word op die ekosisteem was dat mengkulture van S. cerevisiae en G. oxydans het quasi-bestendige toestande bereik het in terme van etanol konsentrasies en asetaat-fluksie. Die teoretiese modelle gebaseer op die parameters afgelei vanaf suiwer kulture kon egter nie die bestendige toestande in mengkulture akkuraat voorspel nie. Nadere ondersoek het aangedui dat die parameters meesal onderskat is vir G. oxydans en oorskat is vir S. cerevisiae. Gevolglik het ons die kinetiese parameters vir mengkulture direk van eksperimentele data van die mengkulture bereken. Verder kon ons die kontrole koeffisiente ook direk vanaf die eksperimentele data van mengkulture bereken en vergelyk met dié bereken vanuit die teoretiese modelle gebaseer op drie verskillende paremeter-stelle. Ons analise het gewys dat die gis alle beheer op die asetaat-fluksie uitoefen en dat die beheer oor die etanol-konsnetrasie gedeel is tussen die twee organismes. Die krag van ons aanslag lê daarin dat die eksperimente ontwerp is met ‘n kontrole analise in gedagte, maar ons het ook bewys dat hierdie aanslag selfs vir eenvoudige ekosisteme nie triviaal is nie. Ten spyte van die eksperimentele uitdagings, was die aanslag baie waardevol as gevolg van die ekstra inligting verkry met spesifieke klem op die kontrole-struktuur met betrekking tot die etanol konsentrasie by bestendige toestand.

Abstract:
Vitamin C is industrially produced by the Reichstein method, which uses gluconobacters to oxidize sorbitol to sorbose then a chemical process to convert sorbose to 2-keto-L-gulonic acid (2-KLG). The establishment of a more extensive microbial process for 2-KLG production translates into a less expensive and more efficient production of vitamin C. I examined pure strains and mixed cultures for their ability to produce 2-KLG using thin layer and high performance liquid chromatography. The DSM 4027 mixed culture produced the highest yield, 25 g/L, of 2-KLG from 100 g/L of sorbose, while the gram-negative rods isolated from DSM 4027 produced 8.8 g/L, and B. megaterium isolated from DSM 4027 produced 1.4 g/L. Thus, the gram-negative rods in the mixed culture were the primary 2-KLG producer, but B. megaterium in the DSM 4027 mixture enhanced this synthesis. Authentic pure cultures of Gluconobacter oxydans IFO strain 3293 and ATCC strain 621 produced 3.4 g/L and 5.7 g/L, respectively. Attempts to co-culture the isolated B. megaterium with the isolated gram-negative rods and authentic Gluconobacter strains did not increase 2-KLG production, nor did growing the cultures on B. megaterium spent media. Bacillus megaterium produced an unidentified keto-compound detected on the TLC chromatograms, which suggested that B. megaterium converted sorbose to an intermediate that may then be converted by the gram-negative rods in DSM 4027 to 2-KLG. Limited phenotypic tests suggested that the gram-negative rods in the DSM 4027 mixture are not gluconobacters.

In this PhD thesis, the selection of Acetic acid bacteria (AAB) was carried out to perform a selective fermentation of D-glucose into D-gluconic acid, without consuming fructose. Three AAB strains were selected, two of them belonging to the Gluconobacter genus and another to Acetobacter, being the Gluconobacter strains better prepared for this oxidation. The activities of the membrane-bound dehydrogenases involved in the complete oxidation of D-glucose were measured. Furthermore, the genes encoding for these enzymes were sequenced and used to construct phylogenetic trees, obtaining as a result that Acetobacter and Gluconobacter genera grouped into different clusters. The nutritional requirements, mainly focused on nitrogen, for AAB were also studied. The growth of these bacteria was better in media with a complete combination of amino acids and ammonium. The selected strains were sequenced to improve the monitoring protocols for these bacteria in the process.

Abstract:
Gluconobacter oxydans is characterized by extreme acid tolerance and the ability to carry out rapid, single-step polyol oxidation catalyzed by membrane bound ehydrogenases. Experiments were designed to determine whether acid tolerance is associated with rapid polyol oxidation in this organism. Washed cells were exposed to 0.1 M or 0.5 !vt NaCI at pH 3.20; subsequent alkalinization of the suspending solution suggested a NaCl-dependent flow of protons (H+) into the cells. Cells were then exposed to NaCI at pH 3.20 followed by the addition of glycerol to determine whether polyol oxidation resulted in H + explusion from the cells. Following glycerol addition, immediate acidification of the suspending solution occurred. To verify that H + effiux was a result of respiration, experiments were conducted using sodium azide and 2,4-dinitrophenol; both compounds prevented the acidification that otherwise occurred following glycerol addition. Because glycerol oxidation reversed the NaCl-induced flow of H + into the cell, it appeared that respiration might function to protect acid-labile cell interiors. Cells exposed to NaCl at pH 3.20 in the presence of glycerol maintained cellular viability while loss of viability occurred in the absence of glyceroL To verify the effect of H+ extrusion on pH homeostasis, radioactively labeled organic-acid probes were used to determine intracellular pH in respiring and nonrespiring cells in the presence of 0.1 M NaCI at pH 3.20. No differences in cytoplasmic pH values between respiring and nonrespiring cells were detected. However, because substantial evidence exists for the role of respiration dependent H + extrusion in the acid tolerance of G. oxydans, use of an alternate method for measurement of internal pH, such as 31 P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, is suggested.

Abstract:
Two types of oxygen carrying particles were formed: a 200cs silicone oil microencapsulated within a nylon membrane, and a solid silicone elastomer microsphere. These oxygen carriers had mean diameters of 0.1 and 1 mm respectively. Free cell cultures of Gluconobacter oxydans performing a bioconversion of glycerol to dihydroxyacetone in a non-growth medium were supplied with oxygen solely from the oxygen carriers. The production of DHA by the culture was used as a bioprobe to evaluate the oxygen transfer capabilities of the oxygen carriers. Models of the reactor system were developed to describe the kinetic and mass transfer phenomena taking place. It was found that the oxygen carriers could supply a cell culture of 0.2 g$ sb{ rm cell}$/L with oxygen quickly enough such that a mass transfer limitation was not encountered. This indicated that at a minimum, the volumetric mass transfer coefficient, k$ sb{ rm L}$a, was equal to or greater than a value of 3 min$ sp{-1}$. This minimum value is comparable to the upper scale of performance from conventional sparging and mixing. Comparable performance was observed when using either of the two oxygen carriers.

Abstract:
L'etude cinetique et physiologique de la conversion du glycerol en dihydroxyacetone par gluconobacter oxydans montre que cette fermentation est soumise a une double inhibition. L'effet inhibiteur du substrat se manifeste par une diminution des cinetiques de croissance et de production avec l'augmentation de la teneur en glycerol, modelisee par des lois de type exponentiel. Cet effet est essentiellement lie a l'abaissement de l'activite de l'eau par les concentrations elevees en substrat. L'inhibition par la dha se manifeste tout d'abord par une diminution des cinetiques de croissance et d'oxydation du substrat (faibles concentrations) puis par un blocage du developpement cellulaire et de la synthese de dha (concentrations elevees). Ces phenomenes, modelises par des lois de levenspiel, ont ete attribues a la forte reactivite de la dha avec les enzymes cytoplasmiques et impliques dans le transport du glycerol et avec la glycerol deshydrogenase membranaire, responsable de la formation de dha. Un procede bi-phasique mono-etage, integrant ces contraintes biologiques, a alors ete mis au point, permettant d'ameliorer les performances fermentaires de cette transformation. Le metabolisme fermentaire du glycerol a ete aborde sous un angle microbiologique. Deux micro-organismes responsables de la degradation du glycerol au sein d'une flore microbienne anaerobie ont ete isoles et caracterises: clostridium butyricum cncm 1. 1211, qui transforme le glycerol en 1,3-propanediol et butyrate avec des rendements de conversion respectifs de 0,66 et 0,13; enterobacter agglomerans cncm 1. 1210, espece nouvellement decrite pour ses capacites d'assimilation du glycerol et de conversion de ce substrat en acetate et 1,3-propanediol (rendements respectifs de 0,25 et 0,7). La preponderance du role joue par le systeme accepteur final d'equivalents reducteurs sur la regulation du metabolisme fermentaire quelle que soit l'espece microbienne etudiee a egalement ete definie

Abstract:
En se combinant à des composés carbonylés dans les vins issus de raisins botrytisés, le dioxyde de soufre devient inactif notamment vis-à-vis des levures fermentaires, ce qui pose un réel problème au praticien car les teneurs maximales autorisées pour cet additif ne permettant pas toujours une protection suffisante du vin contre les phénomènes de refermentation. Une étude microbiologique a montré que, dans différents moûts, les populations levuriennes et bactériennes augmentent avec les taux de combinaison du dioxyde de soufre. Parmi ces micro-organismes, le rôle prééminent des bactéries acétiques, en particulier du genre Gluconobacter, a été établi. En effet, en produisant la dihydroxyacétone, le 5-oxofructose et les γ- et d-gluconolactone à partir respectivement du glycérol, du fructose et du glucose, elles sont responsables des augmentations excessives des pouvoirs de combinaison des moûts issus de vendanges botrytisées. Avec quelques autres composés carbonylés neutres et oxoacides, il est possible d'expliquer la presque totalité du dioxyde de soufre combinable par ces moûts, qui est due pour plus de la moitie au 5-oxofructose dans les cas les moins favorables. Au cours de la fermentation alcoolique, les concentrations en dihydroxyacétone diminuent, il y a synthèse d'éthanal, d'acide pyruvique et d'acide 2-oxoglutarique, les teneurs en 5-oxofructose et γ- et d-gluconolactone demeurent constantes. Ces substances contribuent à raison de 76 à 98 % au total des combinaisons du dioxyde de soufre, quelques composés carbonylés neutres en complément de ceux précédemment cités permettent d'expliquer dans les vins la totalité de ces combinaisons. Diverses pratiques œnologiques jouent un rôle sur les teneurs en SO2 combiné des vins issus de vendanges botrytisées. Des écarts pouvant dépasser 100 mg/l en fonction de la souche de levure commerciale réalisant la fermentation alcoolique ont été observés. Par rapport à un témoin non sulfité, I'addition de 50 mg/l de SO2 au moût donne un vin présentant un taux de SO2 combiné plus fort de 40 mg/l. Un mutage pratiqué après arrêt de l'activité levurienne permet aussi une économie de dioxyde de soufre pouvant atteindre 30 mg/l.

The objective of this study is to genetically modify a gluconate producing strain of Gluconobacter oxydans (Henneberg) De Ley (ATCC23771). First, the strain was mutated by conjugative transposon Tn5, and then screening higher yield mutants was performed. Some mutants with higher gluconate production were selected. Mutants, m3, m6 and m9 are approximately 30% higher than the parent strain. The wild type strain of G. oxydans is not saccharolytic. Among the industrial starch hydrolytic enzymes, amylopullulanase (apu) is a powerful one. The apu gene of plasmid TOEAN 1C was contructed in the plasmid pLKY203. The apu gene of this plasmid is successfully expressed by E. coli JM105. Howere, the apu gene is limitedly expressed by Gluconobacter oxydans ATCC23771.
