Two facultatively aerobic, Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming, endophytic bacteria, designated SGZ-1009Tand SGZ-1014, were isolated from the plantPennisetumsp. Strain SGZ-1009Tgrew at 5–50 °C, pH 4.5–11.0 and tolerated up to 4.5% NaCl (w/v), while strain SGZ-1014 exhibited growth at a temperature range of 10–50 °C, pH range 4.5–11.0 and tolerated up to 4.5% NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that these two strains belong to the genusPaenibacillus, closely related to the reference type strain ofPaenibacillus wenxiniaeDSM 100576T(similarity of 97.0%). The genomic relatedness values for both strains, SGZ-1009Tand SGZ-1014, compared to their closest reference strainP. wenxiniaeDSM 100576T, were 81.6% for average nucleotide identity and 26.0% for digital DNA–DNA hybridization, suggesting strain SGZ-1009Trepresents a novel species. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SGZ-1009Twas 46.4%. Both strains shared anteiso-C15:0(55.9%) as the predominant fatty acid, menaquinone-7 as the major respiratory quinone and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine as the major polar lipids. Based on these results, strains SGZ-1009Tand SGZ-1014 represent a novel species ofPaenibacillus, for which the namePaenibacillus campisp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SGZ-1009T(=MCCC 1K08892T=GDMCC 1.4280T=KCTC 43677T=JCM 36670T).

We found a novel lipase gene in the Paenibacillus pasadenensis CS0611 strain. The lipase gene sequence was cloned into the pET-28a expression vector to construct a recombinant lipase protein containing 6 × His tags at the C- and N-termini, respectively. High-level expression of the lipase in E.coli BL21 (DE3) was obtained upon induction with IPTG at 20 °C. The recombinant lipase activity was approximately 1631-fold higher than the wild type. His-tagged recombinant lipase was purified rapidly and efficiently by using Ni-charged affinity chromatography with 63.5% recovery and a purification factor of 10.78. The purified lipase was stable in a broad range of temperatures and pH values, with the optimal temperature and pH being 50 °C and 7.0, respectively. Its activity was stimulated to different degrees in the presence of metal ions such as Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , and some non-ionic surfactants. In addition, the purified lipase was activated by a series of water-miscible organic solvents such as some short carbon chain alcohols and was highly tolerant to some water-immiscible organic solvents.

Genistein, a plant-derived isoflavone with pharmaceutical value, is conventionally obtained through ecologically detrimental extraction processes that rely on large-scale plant harvesting and hazardous solvents. Here, we report the discovery of native genistein biosynthesis in the Paenibacillus jilinensis, which inherently produces 5.7 mg L−1 genistein via the phenylalanine branch of the phenylpropanoid pathway. This pathway mirrors plant flavonoid synthesis but operates through seven bacterial enzymes (PjPAL, PjC4H, Pj4CL, PjCHS, PjCHI, PjIFS, and PjHID) with about 30% sequence homology to the corresponding protein sequences in plants, suggesting evolutionary convergence. To leverage this native capability for sustainable production, we constructed a genome-scale metabolic model (GSMM YPG26) with 1636 reactions and 717 genes to rationally optimize carbon flux. Metabolic engineering elevated genistein titers by 9.3-fold to 52.8 mg L−1 without introducing heterologous plant genes. Green-chemistry analysis further showed that P. jilinensis-ΔGLN achieves 92% less waste than soybean extraction and up to one order of magnitude better than state-of-the-art E. coli and yeast systems. It is crucial that this bacterial platform requires only a basic culture medium for sustained production, and eliminates dependence on medicinal plants. Our findings reveal P. jilinensis as a naturally gifted genistein producer and a green chassis for industrial isoflavone synthesis, aligning with green chemistry goals of waste prevention and bio-based process innovation.

Phytosterols have been demonstrated to be precursors of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) formed during biomass pyrolysis. Here, a novel Paenibacillus sp. was evaluated for its ability to degrade phytosterols in tobacco waste extract (TWE). The optimal conditions for cell growth and stigmasterol (a representative of phytosterols) degradation were 37 °C, pH 7.0, 1.0 g/L yeast extract, and 6.0 g/L glucose. Paenibacillus sp. could degrade stigmasterol under high concentrations of glucose (up to 130 g/L) and tolerate wide pH (5.0–9.0) and temperature (25–42 °C) ranges. The new strain could degrade stigmasterol completely into CO 2 and H 2 O, and no intermediate steroids were detected during the degradation process. Phytosterol degradation in TWE was demonstrated by high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. Under optimal conditions (37 °C, pH 7.0, with the exponential-phase cells), the total degradation ratio of phytosterols reached 38.5% in TWE, including 45.2% of stigmasterol, 37.4% of β-sitosterol, 27.3% of campesterol, and 28.7% of cholesterol. These results showed that Paenibacillus sp. is a candidate for phytosterol degradation in TWE and other biomass and is potentially useful in reducing the PAHs generated from biomass pyrolysis.

Background Root knot nematodes cause great damage to crops worldwide. Due to the negative effects of the application of fumigant and old chemical nematicides, biological nematicides have drawn increasing attention in recent years. Here we tested the fumigant activity of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) blends emitted from Paenibacillus polymyxa and pure commercial VOCs against M. incognita . Results In this study, we investigated whether P. polymyxa strain J2-4 could produce VOCs that exhibit nematicidal activity. In vitro assays indicated that J2-4 VOCs were highly toxic to second stage juveniles (J2s) and could inhibit egg hatching. Three-layered pot experiments showed that the number of nematodes that penetrating in cucumber roots was reduced by 69.27% after the application of J2-4 VOCs under greenhouse conditions. We identified fourteen volatiles using solid-phase micro-extraction gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The efficacy of six commercially available VOCs, namely 2-isobutyl-3-methylpyrazine, 2,4-dimethoxybenzaldoxime, 2-dodecanone, 2-tridecanol, 2-tridecanone, and 2-tetradecanol, against M. incognita were examined. Except for 2,4-dimethoxybenzaldoxime, the remaining five VOCs showed strong direct-contact nematicidal activity against J2s of M. incognita , and only 2-isobutyl-3-methylpyrazine showed strong fumigant activity against J2s of M. incognita . In pot experiments, 2-isobutyl-3-methylpyrazine and 2-dodecanone reduced the number of root galls by about 70%, and 2-tridecanone reduced the number of root galls and egg masses by about 63% compared with controls. Conclusion Paenibacillus polymyxa strain J2-4 exhibited high fumigant activity against M. incognita. Our results provide evidence for the use of J2-4 and its VOCs as biocontrol agents in the management of root-knot nematodes. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

This study proposed to investigate the inhibition mechanism of the Paenibacillus provencensis (PP-2) metabolites on the dominant spoilage bacteria of sea bass and the application in preservation. Shewanella (71.11 %) and Pseudomonas (13.54 %) were the main genera. The Shewanella putrefaciens (L-1) and Pseudomonas fragi (L-4) were isolated and purified based on spoilage factors as dominant spoilage bacteria. PP-2 supernatant metabolites at minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC, 150 mg/mL) inhibited L-1 and L-4 by more than 95 % with significant antioxidant properties. The PP-2 metabolites were detected by LC-MS mainly including organic acids and derivatives, lipids molecules, organic heterocyclic compounds, and organic oxides. According to the transmission electron microscope (TEM) results, Additionally, the metabolites demonstrated antioxidant properties and disrupted bacterial cell membranes, highlighting their potential for controlling seafood spoilage. PP-2 metabolites significantly lowered pH ( p < 0.05), TBARS values (0.33 ± 0.01 μmol/g), and TVB-N levels (24.06 ± 2.25 mg/100 g) compared to Nisin-treated and control groups after 6–8 d. After 8 d, colony counts in the PP-2 group (7.90 ± 0.01 log CFU/g) remained below the spoilage threshold. PP-2 metabolites also reduced protein oxidation, with carbonyl content at 0.33 ± 0.01 μmol/g and sulfhydryl content at 5.26 ± 0.18 μmol/g. The metabolites preserved textural properties, showing slower declines in hardness, elasticity, and chewiness, and lower juice leakage (9.37 ± 1.27 %). Metabolomic analysis revealed that PP-2 metabolites disrupted several key bacterial metabolic pathways, leading to bacterial death. These results suggest that PP-2 metabolites enhance seafood preservation by targeting bacterial metabolic processes.

Polymyxin B, produced by Paenibacillus polymyxa, is used as the last line of defense clinically. In this study, exogenous mixture of precursor amino acids increased the level and proportion of polymyxin B1 in the total of polymyxin B analogs of P. polymyxa CJX518-AC (PPAC) from 0.15 g/L and 61.8 % to 0.33 g/L and 79.9 %, respectively. The co-culture of strain PPAC and recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum -leu01, which produces high levels of threonine, leucine, and isoleucine, increased polymyxin B1 production to 0.64 g/L. When strains PPAC and C. glu -leu01 simultaneously inoculated into an optimized medium with 20 g/L peptone, polymyxin B1 production was increased to 0.97 g/L. Furthermore, the polymyxin B1 production in the co-culture of strains PPAC and C. glu -leu01 increased to 2.21 g/L after optimized inoculation ratios and fermentation medium with 60 g/L peptone. This study provides a new strategy to improve polymyxin B1 production.

In this study, a Paenibacillus polymyxa ZF129 microcapsule suspension (CS-ZF129) was prepared. P. polymyxa ZF129 was microencapsulated by gum arabic via the spray-drying method. Coating seeds with the CS-ZF129 not only increased the control efficacy against cucumber root rot to 46.30 ± 0.02%, but also promoted the growth of the cucumber roots and other aspects, effectively improving the colonization ability of polymyxa ZF129 in the cucumber root system, which was analyzed to clarify the biological control mechanism of the cucumber Fusarium root rot disease through the enzyme activity. This study provides an efficient means based on seed coating for the biological control of cucumber Fusarium root rot. Fusarium root rot, a destructive soil-borne fungal disease, necessitates eco-friendly biocontrol strategies. This study developed a microbial seed-coating approach using the antagonistic strain Paenibacillus polymyxa ZF129, formulated into a microencapsulated powder (10 8 CFU/g) and a suspension (CS-ZF129). CS-ZF129 application enhanced cucumber resistance, achieving 46.30 ± 0.02% disease suppression while promoting root growth. The maximum increase in the fresh weight of the root in the promotion of rectangular growth was 47.16%. The colonization dynamics of ZF129 in the rhizosphere were systematically tracked, revealing its antagonistic correlation with Fusarium proliferation. An enzymatic activity analysis further uncovered the underlying regulatory mechanisms, demonstrating induced defense responses through pathogenesis-related protein activation. These findings highlight ZF129’s dual functionality as a biocontrol agent and a plant growth promoter, offering a sustainable strategy against soil-borne pathogens.

Two novel aerobic, rod-shaped, motile bacterial strains, designated as strains sgz302251 T and sgz5001026 T , were both isolated from paddy soils. 16S rRNA gene sequences analysis revealed that strain sgz302251 T exhibited 98.3% similarity with its closest reference strain Paenibacillus vietnamensis N4 T , while strain sgz5001026 T had the highest similarity of 97.5% to Ectobacillus polymachus KACC 18242 T . The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strains sgz302251 T , sgz5001026 T and their closest reference strains were 86.0% and 21.2%, 84.9% and 22.9%, respectively. The genomic DNA G + C contents of sgz302251 T and sgz5001026 T were 63.4% and 68.8%, respectively. Strain sgz302251 T grew at 20–37 °C (optimum 30 °C), pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum 6.5–7.5) and tolerated 0–1.0% NaCl (optimum 0.5%, w/v), while strain sgz5001026 T grew at 4–45 °C (optimum 37 °C), pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum 6.0) and 0–0.5% NaCl (optimum 0%). The quinone in both strains was MK-7 and major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylglycerol (PG). The main fatty acids (> 5%) of strain sgz302251 T were anteiso-C 15:0 , anteiso-C 17:0 , and C 16:0 , whereas strain sgz5001026 T included anteiso-C 15:0 , iso-C 15:0 , iso-C 16:0 and iso-C 14:0 . Based on the above evidence, the proposed names of the two novel species are Paenibacillus praedii sp. nov. (type strain sgz302251 T = MCCC 1K09633 T = KCTC 43808 T ), Ectobacillus soli sp. nov. (type strain sgz5001026 T = MCCC 1K09373 T = KCTC 25903 T ), respectively.

Antimicrobial compounds from the commensal gut microbiota have gained much attention due to their multifunctionality in maintaining good health in the host and killing multidrug-resistant bacteria. Our previous study showed that Paenibacillus jilinensis YPG26 isolated from chicken intestine can antagonize multiple pathogens. Herein, we characterized a bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance, jileicin, purified from P. jilinensis YPG26. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed that jileicin was a protein consisting of 211 amino acids, which showed 88.98% identity to the SIMPL domain-containing protein. The jileicin showed a relatively broad-spectrum antibacterial ability, especially against enterococci. Additionally, the jileicin exhibited good stability after various treatments, no detectable resistance, no significant cytotoxicity, and very low levels of hemolytic activity. The mode of action against Enterococcus faecium demonstrated that jileicin could destroy cell membrane integrity, increase cell membrane permeability, and eventually lead to cell death. Furthermore, jileicin was efficient in controlling the growth of E. faecium in milk. In conclusion, jileicin, as a newly identified antibacterial agent, is expected to be a promising candidate for application in the food, pharmaceutical, and biomedical industries.

Poor water solubility limits the application of genistein in food and pharmaceutical fields. Glycosylation can greatly improve the water solubility of genistein by attaching long chain sugars. Here, glycosylation of sophoricoside (genistein monoglucoside) by cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase from Paenibacillus macerans ( Pm CGTase) was investigated. Based on molecular docking and hydrolytic activity analysis, saturation mutagenesis was conducted at residues Y195 and S77 of Pm CGTase. Variants S77N, Y195S, Y195I, S77N/Y195S, and S77N/Y195I showed enhanced product specificity toward long-chain glycosylated sophoricosides (LCGS). In particular, S77N/Y195I displayed 119% increased LCGS product specificity and 20.6% higher sophoricoside conversion than the wild type. Increased comprehensive activities of Y195S and Y195I contributed to enhanced conversion, and decreased hydrolytic activity of S77N promoted LCGS accumulation. Kinetics results revealed improved catalytic efficiency and substrate affinity of variants toward both the glycosyl donor and acceptor. Furthermore, MD simulation elucidates that the decreased substrate binding energy of variants could lead to improved kinetics, and increased hydrogen binding between residues at -6/-7 subsites and the glycosyl donor is primarily responsible for enhanced LCGS specificity. An “Increased Income-Reduced Expenditure” mechanism was proposed, explaining that the enhanced LCGS product specificity of Pm CGTase is closely related to the increased hydrogen bond interactions at -6/-7 subsites and decreased hydrolytic activity.

The two major impediments to biomass resourcing are the catalytic efficiency of enzymes and the effectiveness of biomass pretreatment. In this study, six genes encoding β-Glucosidases (BGLs) derived from Paenibacillus sp. LLZ1 were cloned and expressed. The activity of BGL-F, which had the highest enzyme activity, was 24.1 U/mg, which was 39.8–83.7% higher than that of the other BGLs. Molecular docking and surface charge analyses showed that the binding energy of BGL-F to cellobiose and its electronegative ligand-binding pocket were greater than those of other BGLs. On the other hand, by calculating and comparing the Kamlet–Taft (KT) values of deep eutectic solvent (DES) composed of different hydrogen bond donors (HBD) and hydrogen bond acceptors (HDA), it was found that DES composed of betaine and glycerol had the highest α value of 0.97, meaning that it could provide the highest hydrogen bonding capacity, and thus it had the best pretreatment effect on biomass. Analysis by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy revealed a decrease in α-helix and an increase in β-strand in the secondary structure of the DES-treated BGL-F, implying an increase in enzyme activity and stability. This result was also confirmed experimentally by the fact that the K m and V max of the enzyme in the DES system increased by 13.2% and 57.9%, respectively, and the inactivation rate (k d ) decreased by 21.4%. The results of this study showed that DES consisting of glycerol-betaine achieved a better balance between the promotion of enzyme activity and biomass pretreatment.
