Aldehyde dehydrogenase (E.C. 1.2.1.x) can catalyze detoxification of acetaldehydes. A novel acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (istALDH) from the non-Saccharomyces yeast Issatchenkia terricola strain XJ-2 has been previously characterized. In this work, Lactococcus lactis with the NIsin Controlled Expression (NICE) System was applied to express the aldehyde dehydrogenase gene (istALDH) in order to catalyze oxidation of acetaldehyde at low pH. A recombinant L. lactis NZ3900 was obtained and applied for the detoxification of acetaldehyde as whole-cell biocatalysts. The activity of IstALDH in L. lactis NZ3900 (pNZ8148-istALDH) reached 36.4 U mL when the recombinant cells were induced with 50 ng mL nisin at 20 °C for 2 h. The IstALDH activity of recombinant L. lactis cells showed higher stability at 37 °C and pH 4.0 compared with the crude enzyme. L. lactis NZ3900 (pNZ8148-istALDH) could convert acetaldehyde at pH 2.0 while the crude enzyme could not. Moreover, the resting cells of L. lactis NZ3900 (pNZ8148-istALDH) showed a 2.5-fold higher activity and better stability in catalyzing oxidation of acetaldehyde at pH 2.0 compared with that of Escherichia coli expressing the IstALDH. Taken together, the L. lactis cells expressing recombinant IstALDH are potential whole-cell biocatalysts that can be applied in the detoxification of aldehydes.

Article Synopsis
  • Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is linked to serious health issues including viral encephalitis and neonatal infections, prompting the exploration of vaccines for prevention.
  • Researchers created a genetically modified strain of Lactococcus lactis (NZ3900-gD-IL-2-Fc) to express a protective viral antigen, aiming to enhance immune responses.
  • Their findings showed that this recombinant vaccine significantly increased the production of antibodies and immune cell activity in mice, suggesting its potential effectiveness against HSV-1 infection.

Article Synopsis
  • Largemouth bass virus (LMBV) poses a serious threat to largemouth bass, leading to high mortality rates and economic losses.
  • This study investigates the use of genetically modified Lactococcus lactis to deliver interferon a3 (IFNa3) orally to enhance the immune response in largemouth bass against LMBV.
  • Results showed that fish receiving the recombinant L. lactis achieved a 70% survival rate post-LMBV challenge, significantly higher than control groups, with improved immune responses and lower viral loads.

Intestinal mucosa injury and loss of weight gain are unavoidable while using live vaccine strain to prevent chicken coccidiosis. In this study, recombinant Lactococcus lactis NZ3900/pNZ8149-IL-4-IL-2, expressing the fusion protein of chicken IL-4 and IL-2, was constructed using food-grade NICE expression system, trying to develop a possible oral immune adjuvant to enhance the immune effect of the live vaccine against chicken coccidiosis and minimize its adverse effects. Chickens were given different doses of recombinant L.
