Upgrading of biomass derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has attracted considerable interest recently. A new highly HMF-tolerant strain of Burkholderia contaminans NJPI-15 was isolated in this study, and the biocatalytic reduction of HMF into 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (BHMF) using whole cells was reported. Co-substrate was applied to improve the BHMF yield and selectivity of this strain as well as HMF-tolerant level. The catalytic capacity of the cells can be substantially improved by Mn2+ ion. The strain exhibited good catalytic performance at a pH range of 6.0–9.0 and a temperature range of 25°C–35°C. In addition, 100 mM HMF could be reduced to BHMF by the B. contaminans NJPI-15 resting cells in presence of 70 mM glutamine and 30 mM sucrose, with a yield of 95%. In the fed-batch strategy, 656 mM BHMF was obtained within 48 h, giving a yield of 93.7%. The reported utilization of HMF to produce BHMF is a promising industrially sound biocatalytic process.

Lipase from Burkholderia species immobilized onto novel mesoporous polymeric ionic liquids (MO(Poly)C n –BLE) could be utilized as a low–cost biocatalyst for the lipase-catalyzed synthesis of free fatty acid esters from dried municipal sewage sludge. To assess this, this investigation has focused on three main parts of this process: (i) the development of a series of large surface polymer synthesis; (ii) mesoporous polymeric biocatalyst preparation using lipase from Burkholderia sp. immobilization onto MO(Poly)C n , and supports for this alongside Mesoporous polymer ionic liquid–1–bromooctane–lipase from Burkholderia sp. enzyme (MO(Poly)C 18 –BLE) were characterized using FT-IR, SEM, XPS , N 2 , and TGA ; (iii) Response surface methodology was used to determine the optimal conditions for ester production from municipal sewage sludge lipids using a central composite design. Four process variables were assessed at three levels; a total of 13 experiments were performed to study the effects of the lipids: ethanol molar ratio, catalyst concentration, reaction time, and temperature on the ester’s yield. A 91.25% ester yield was obtained under optimal conditions: a 1:12 molar ratio of municipal sewage sludge lipid to ethanol, 225 wt% MO(Poly)C 18 –BLE, 5 h reaction time, 45 ℃ reaction temperature, and a constant 150 rpm agitation. This novel biocatalyst synthesis method and ester production process from municipal sewage sludge lipids may provide ecological and economic support for industrial biodiesel production in the future.

Nitro-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAHs) are toxic and persistent environmental contaminants of increasing concern because of their widespread occurrence and ecological risks. Nitronaphthalene, a representative nitro-PAH, occurs as positional isomers, yet microbial degradation studies have mainly focused on 1-nitronaphthalene (1-NN), leaving the basis for biodegradation of 2-nitronaphthalene (2-NN) largely unresolved. In this study, Burkholderia pseudomultivorans M3 was isolated from river sediment in Anhui Province, China, and was found to efficiently degrade both 1-NN and 2-NN, indicating an expanded degradation range for nitronaphthalene isomers. Genome analysis identified a novel nitronaphthalene degradation gene cluster ( nnd ) that is phylogenetically related to reported nin - and nag -type gene clusters but differs functionally from both. Gene knockout and complementation experiments demonstrated that nndAc , encoding the catalytic α-subunit of a Rieske-type dioxygenase, is essential for degradation of both isomers. Heterologous expression and metabolite identification further showed that the NndAB system transforms 1-NN and 2-NN into 1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene via the corresponding nitro-dihydrodiol intermediates, with concomitant nitrite release. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed that the ability of NndAc depends on the coordinated effects of multiple active-site residues, with F200 being particularly important for 2-NN transformation. Moreover, strain M3 maintained substantial removal efficiency in synthetic wastewater containing mixed nitro-, carboxyl-, and hydroxyl-substituted naphthalene compounds, supporting its applicability in complex contaminated matrices. These findings reveal the molecular basis underlying the broadened substrate range of nitronaphthalene degradation and highlight the potential of strain M3 for remediation of wastewater containing mixed substituted naphthalene pollutants.

Background: Tea plants (Camellia sinensis) are widely cultivated cash crops. However, fungal diseases lead to significant reductions in both the yield and quality of tea. Therefore, searching for economical, eco-friendly, and efficient biological control measures is crucial for protecting tea plants from pathogenic fungi. Methods: The confrontation assays were performed to identify the antagonistic bacteria against tea pathogenic fungi and evaluate the antifungal activity of these bacteria. Results: Here, three tea pathogenic fungi were identified:Colletotrichum siamenseHT-1,Diaporthe phaseolorumHT-3, andFusarium fujikuroiHT-4. Notably,D. phaseolorumwas the first to be reported in tea plants in China. Some tea pathogenic fungi showed a high relative abundance, suggesting a potential disease risk in tea plantations. Strain GS2Y, isolated from tea rhizosphere soil, exhibited strong antifungal activity against tea pathogenic fungi and represented a novel species within the genusBurkholderia, designated asBurkholderia theae. GS2Y could directly inhibit tea pathogenic fungi by disrupting the cellular structures and protect tea plants from fungal diseases caused byC. siamenseHT-1 andD. phaseolorumHT-3. Conclusions:B. theaeGS2Y might function as a potentially valuable resource for biocontrol agents, laying the foundation for the development of strategies to manage fungal diseases in tea plants.

The objective of this study was to investigate whether plant-bacteria interaction affects the secretion of organic acids by both organisms and to assess whether the production of IAA by the bacterium increases the secretion of organic acids by root exudates, and if the stress produced by low available phosphorus (P) affects the production of organic acids by bacteria, by roots, or by root exudates in presence of bacterial cultures. With this purpose, we used as a biological model poplar plants and one strain of Burkholderia multivorans able to solubilize P. High performance liquid chromatography was utilized to measure organic acids. The tests, the inductive effects of exogenous indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) on secretion of organic acids, the 2 × 4 × 2 factorial design experiment, and the ability of organic acids to solubilize tricalcium phosphate were performed to investigate the interactive effects. The results showed that, after B. multivorans WS-FJ9 interacted with the poplar root system, the key phosphate-solubilizing driving force was gluconic acid (GA) which was produced in three ways: (1) secreted by the root system in the presence of IAA produced by B. multivorans WS-FJ9; (2) secreted by B. multivorans WS-FJ9; and (3) secreted by the poplar root system in the presence of phosphorus stress. When phosphorus stress was absent, the GA was produced as outlined in (1) and (2) above. These results demonstrated that inoculating B. multivorans WS-FJ9 into the poplar root system could increase the amount of GA secretion and implied that the interaction between B. multivorans WS-FJ9 and the poplar root system could contribute to the increase of P available fraction for poplar plants.

Bis (2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) is one of the main compounds produced by enzymatic hydrolysis or chemical depolymerization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). However, the lack of understanding on BHET microbial metabolism is a main factor limiting the bio-upcycling of PET. In this study, BHET-degrading strains of Rhodococcus biphenylivorans GA1 and Burkholderia sp. EG1 were isolated and identified, which can grow with BHET as the sole carbon source. Furthermore, a novel esterase gene betH was cloned from strain GA1, which encodes a BHET hydrolyzing esterase with the highest activity at 30 °C and pH 7.0. In addition, the co-culture containing strain GA1 and strain EG1 could completely degrade high concentration of BHET, eliminating the inhibition on strain GA1 caused by the accumulation of intermediate metabolite ethylene glycol (EG). This work will provide potential strains and a feasible strategy for PET bio-upcycling.

Bio-nanocomposites have attracted increasing research attention because they are able to integrate bio- and nano-related functions, and subsequently demonstrate potentially beneficial environmental applications. Here, a functional bionanomaterial based on Burkholderia cepacian (FZ) immobilized on GO/ZIF-8 was developed and used to remove malachite green (MG), with functions based on both biodegradation and adsorption. XRD and FTIR results showed that in situ production of GO/ZIF-8 by combining Zn 2+ in ZIF-8 with the carboxyl group on the GO surface, led to FZ immobilized in GO/ZIF-8 through covalent bonding. Zeta analysis showed that the surface of FZ and GO/ZIF-8 had different charges under pH = 9.12, suggesting immobilization also occurred via electrostatic action. BET results confirmed that the specific surface area of GO/ZIF-8 was much larger than that of GO and ZIF-8, but the reduced specific surface area of FZ@GO/ZIF-8 could be due to FZ loading on its surface. The efficiency of FZ@GO/ZIF-8 in the removal of MG reached 99% and furthermore retained good stability after five cycles. The efficiency in removing multiple ions in river water reached more than 80%, which is evidence strongly suggesting that FZ@GO/ZIF-8 is an environmental bionanomaterial with effective application potential.

Methyl parathion is one of the most widely used pesticides in agricultural practices. It caused accumulation of acetylcholine and over-stimulation of receptors in synapses which eventually led to damage of the nervous system. Present study developed a direct, sensitive, rapid and reliable method for methyl parathion residues detection in vegetable samples. MOF nanofibers which demonstrated stable framework structure, good thermal/chemical stability, good electrochemical behavior, high porosity, surface area and pore volume was synthesized and used for fabrication of Burkholderia cepacia lipase (BCL)@MOF nanofibers biosensors. BCL@MOF nanofibers/chitosan/GCE biosensor demonstrated high sensitivity for methyl detection with a wide linear range (0.1–38 µM) and low limit of detection 0.067 µM. During the 3 weeks storage stability test at 4 °C, the fabricated biosensor demonstrated good reusability and excellent stability for methyl parathion detection with retainment of more than 80% of its initial response. When applied for detection of methyl parathion residues in vegetable samples, the BCL@MOF nanofibers/chitosan/GCE biosensors demonstrated good recovery rates.

Background and aims Plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can promote plant performance under water deficit, but the physiology and biochemistry of the promoting process induced by PGPR under different water deficits is not well known in maize ( Zea mays L). Methods A glasshouse study was conducted to determine the effects of Burkholderia sp. LD-11 on morphophysiological traits for plant growth and homeostasis between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant enzymes under five regimens in two maize inbred lines. Results Soil inoculation with Burkholderia sp. LD-11 promoted biomass accumulation and improved instantaneous water-use efficiency (WUEi), regardless of the soil water availability. It also triggered production of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), decreasing the accumulation of abscisic acid (ABA) induced by the water deficit, alleviated ROS accumulation, and resulted in a reduction in lipid peroxidation induced by the water deficits. Soil inoculation also enhanced the tolerance to water deficit through reducing stomatal aperture by increasing the sensitivity of stomatal conductance ( g
s ) to small changes in ABA concentration in the leaves. Conclusions Soil inoculation with Burkholderia sp. LD-11 enhanced root systems and WUEi, offering a potential avenue for improving maize tolerance to water deficit.

Background: Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) represents a common biological fertilizer with remarkable effect in improving crop production and environmental friendliness.Methods: In the present work, we presented a detailed characterization of plant morphology and physiology, metabolism, and pharmacological activity of A. roxburghii between Burkholderia ambifaria LK-P4 inoculation and un-inoculation (CK) treatment by routine analytical techniques (include microscopy and enzymatic activity assays and so on) coupled with metabolomics approaches.Results: Morphological and physiological results showedthat the P4 bacteria could significantly increase plant stomatal density, freshweight, survival rate,and the content of total flavonoids in leaves but reducethe amount of free amino acid. Furthermore, metabolite data showed that fatty acids (linoleic acid, linolenic acid, stearic acid) and active substance (kyotorphin and piceatannol) were specifically up-regulated in P4 inoculation. It was also demonstrated that the differential metabolites were involved in citrate cycle, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, and biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids pathway. In addition, pharmacological efficacy found that A. roxburghii under P4 inoculation can significantly decrease (p < 0.05) blood glucose levels and protect the organs of mice with similar effect of Glibenclamide tablets.Conlusion: Overall, it can be seen that the exogenous P4 bacteria can promote the growth and increase content of special metabolites in A. roxburghii. This study provided theoretical basis and supported for the high-yield and high-quality bionic cultivation of A. roxburghii.

Biodiesel biosynthesis with enzymatic transesterification is considered green, sustainable, and environmentally friendly method. Lipase from Burkholderia cepacia G63 has excellent catalytic properties in biodiesel production. Lipase chaperones promote secretion and folding of enzymes, thereby enhancing enzymatic activity. In the current study, heterologous co-expression of lipase (lipA) and chaperone (lipB) was achieved in Escherichia coli through codon optimization. The enzymatic activity of purified and renatured lipAB was 2080.23 ± 19.18 U/g at 50 °C and pH 8.0. Moreover, lipAB showed increased resistance to pH and temperature changes, and lipAB retained stable catalytic properties after treatment with metal ions, organic solvents, and surfactants, namely Mg 2+ , methanol, and Triton-100X. Besides, using recombinant lipase lipAB as catalysts, biodiesel was synthesized using rapeseed oil under 50 °C for 72 h with a yield of 90.23%. Thus, the current study confirmed that co-expression of lipase and its chaperone is an effective strategy to enhance enzyme activity and improve the biochemical profile, meanwhile, showing that lipAB is a promising biocatalyst for biodiesel production.

Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell-to-cell communication mechanism mediated by small diffusible signaling molecules. Previous studies showed that RpfR controls Burkholderia cenocepacia virulence as a cis -2-dodecenoic acid (BDSF) QS signal receptor. Here, we report that the fatty acyl-CoA ligase DsfR (BCAM2136), which efficiently catalyzes in vitro synthesis of lauryl-CoA and oleoyl-CoA from lauric acid and oleic acid, respectively, acts as a global transcriptional regulator to control B . cenocepacia virulence by sensing BDSF. We show that BDSF binds to DsfR with high affinity and enhances the binding of DsfR to the promoter DNA regions of target genes. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the homolog of DsfR in B. lata , RS02960, binds to the target gene promoter, and perception of BDSF enhances the binding activity of RS02960. Together, these results provide insights into the evolved unusual functions of DsfR that control bacterial virulence as a response regulator of QS signal.
