Glutantβase: a database for improving the rational design of glucose-tolerant β-glucosidases

Abstract: Β-glucosidases are key enzymes used in second-generation biofuel production. They act in the last step of the lignocellulose saccharification, converting cellobiose in glucose. However, most of the β-glucosidases are inhibited by high glucose concentrations, which turns it a limiting step for industrial production. Thus, β-glucosidases have been targeted by several studies aiming to understand the mechanism of glucose tolerance, pH and thermal resistance for constructing more efficient enzymes. In this paper, … Show more

“…Although the mechanism of glucose stimulation/inhibition remains elusive, structural analyses and literature data on glucose‐tolerant GH1s allowed us to identify the residues likely involved in M‐GH1 glucose tolerance [30]. In particular, we focused on the comparison of M‐GH1 with the glucose‐stimulated β‐glucosidase from Humicola insolens (HiBG, PDB: 4MDP [31]), which share 39.9% of sequence identity and reasonable structural homology (RMSD ~1.7 Å over 419 aligned residues, Fig.…”

“…For the third case study, we selected the sequences of the glucose-tolerant GH1 β-glucosidase of a South China Sea metagenome (Bgl1A; UniProt ID: D5KX75) ( Fang et al, 2010 ) and the non-tolerant GH1 β-glucosidase of a South China Sea metagenome (Bgl1B; UniProt ID: D0VEC8) ( Fang et al, 2009 ) from Glutantbase ( Mariano et al, 2020 ). We also constructed two mutants, H57D (Bgl1A) and D57H (Bgl1B), to evaluate VTR’s ability to propose mutations for enzymes based on differences of contacts ( Supplementary Tables S5–S6 ).…”

“…Further exemplification of enzyme engineering can be found in Table 2, where additional instances are provided. [122][123][124][125][126][127][128][129][130][131][132][133][134][135][136][137][138][139][140] Enhanced catalytic activity accelerates reactions, stability ensures that enzymes can endure challenging environments, and refined substrate specificity opens doors to a plethora of novel applications. However, these methods still have several limitations, for example, directed evolution can be timeconsuming and resource-intensive and may not always yield enzymes with the desired properties.…”
