Researchers continue to search for efficient processes to reduce the production costs of rare sugars. In this paper, we report a novel D-xylose isomerase from Shinella zoogloeoides NN6 (SzXI) and its application for efficient rare sugar production. Purified SzXI did not show remarkable properties when compared with those of a previously reported D-xylose isomerase. However, NN6 was found to express inducible SzXI and constitutive D-allulose 3-epimerase (SzAE) when cultivated with D-xylose as the sole carbon source. These two enzymes were partially purified and immobilized onto HPA25L, an anion exchange resin. The co-immobilized SzXI and SzAE (i-XA) showed optimal activity at 65°C in sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.5) and 90°C in sodium phosphate buffer (pH 6.5), respectively. i-XA produced D-ribulose via D-xylulose from D-xylose at a conversion ratio of D-xylose:D-xylulose:D-ribulose of 72:18:10. Furthermore, D-allulose was also produced via D-fructose using D-glucose as the substrate, with a D-allulose yield of 11.2%. This is the first report describing a bacterium expressing D-xylose isomerase and D-allulose 3-epimerase that converts readily available sugars such as D-glucose and D-xylose to rare sugars.

The cascade of sugar isomerases is one of the most practical methods for producing rare sugars, and enzyme immobilization endows it with high economic efficiency, operational convenience and reusability. However, the most employed cross-linker glutaraldehyde (GA) has the disadvantages of enzyme deactivation and limitation of substrate binding. Herein, three compounds, glyoxal, GA, and 2,5-furandicarboxaldehyde (DFF) were evaluated within a previously developed cascade comprising ribose-5-phosphate isomerase and D-tagatose-3-epimerase to prepare D-ribulose form D-xylose.

Article Synopsis
- Xylose, derived from lignocellulose, is a crucial renewable resource for producing valuable bioproducts like fumaric acid; optimizing its conversion is essential.
- The study identified a genetically modified strain (TKL-4) of A. pullulans that effectively uses xylose and corncob-derived xylose to produce calcium fumarate, demonstrating higher yields compared to glucose.
- The TKL-4 strain achieved impressive fermentation results, generating up to 88.5 g/L of calcium fumarate from xylose during a 10-liter fermentation process, showcasing its potential for eco-friendly bioproduct development.
