1. Avermectin B1a production in Streptomyces avermitilis is enhanced by engineering aveC and precursor supply genes
Yi Hao, Yanting You, Zhi Chen, Jilun Li, Gang Liu, Ying Wen Appl Microbiol Biotechnol. 2022 Mar;106(5-6):2191-2205. doi: 10.1007/s00253-022-11854-w. Epub 2022 Mar 8.
Avermectins (AVEs) are economically potent anthelmintic agents produced by Streptomyces avermitilis. Among eight AVE components, B1a exhibits the highest insecticidal activity. The purpose of this study was to enhance B1a production, particularly in the high-yielding industrial strain A229, by a combination strategy involving the following steps. (i) aveC gene was engineered to increase B1a:B2a ratio. Three aveC variants (aveC2m, aveC5m, and aveC8m, respectively encoding two, five, and eight amino acid mutations) were synthesized by fusion PCR. B1a:B2a ratio in A229 derivative having kasOp*-controlled aveC8m reached 1.33 (B1a and B2a titers were 8120 and 6124 μg/mL). Corresponding values in A229 were 0.99 and 6447 and 6480 μg/mL. (ii) β-oxidation pathway genes fadD and fadAB were overexpressed in wild-type (WT) strain and A229 to increase supply of acyl-CoA precursors for AVE production. The resulting strains all showed increased B1a titer. Co-overexpression of pkn5p-driven fadD and fadAB in A229 led to B1a titer of 8537 μg/mL. (iii) Genes bicA and ecaA involved in cyanobacterial CO2-concentrating mechanism (CCM) were introduced into WT and A229 to enhance carboxylation velocity of acetyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA carboxylases, leading to increased supply of malonyl- and methylmalonyl-CoA precursors and increased B1a titer. Co-expression of bicA and ecaA in A229 led to B1a titer of 8083 μg/mL. (iv) aveC8m, fadD-fadAB, and bicA-ecaA were co-overexpressed in A229, resulting in maximal B1a titer (9613 μg/mL; 49.1% increase relative to A229). Our findings demonstrate that the combination strategy we provided here is an efficient approach for improving B1a production in industrial strains.Key points· aveC mutation increased avermectin B1a:B2a ratio and B1a titer.· Higher levels of acyl-CoA precursors contributed to enhanced B1a production.· B1a titer in an industrial strain was increased by 49.1% via a combination strategy.
2. B-1b Cells Possess Unique bHLH-Driven P62-Dependent Self-Renewal and Atheroprotection
Tanyaporn Pattarabanjird, Melissa Marshall, Aditi Upadhye, Prasad Srikakulapu, James C Garmey, Antony Haider, Angela M Taylor, Esther Lutgens, Coleen A McNamara Circ Res. 2022 Apr;130(7):981-993. doi: 10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.121.320436. Epub 2022 Feb 25.
Background: B1a and B1b lymphocytes produce IgM that inactivates oxidation-specific epitopes (IgMOSE) on LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and protects against atherosclerosis. Loss of ID3 (inhibitor of differentiation 3) in B cells selectively promotes B1b but not B1a cell numbers, leading to higher IgMOSE production and reduction in atherosclerotic plaque formation. Yet, the mechanism underlying this regulation remains unexplored. Methods: Bulk RNA sequencing was utilized to identify differentially expressed genes in B1a and B1b cells from Id3KO and Id3WT mice. CRISPR/Cas9 and lentiviral genome editing coupled with adoptive transfer were used to identify key Id3-dependent signaling pathways regulating B1b cell proliferation and the impact on atherosclerosis. Biospecimens from humans with advanced coronary artery disease imaging were analyzed to translate murine findings to human subjects with coronary artery disease. Results: Through RNA sequencing, P62 was found to be enriched in Id3KO B1b cells. Further in vitro characterization reveals a novel role for P62 in mediating BAFF (B-cell activating factor)-induced B1b cell proliferation through interacting with TRAF6 (tumor necrosis factor receptor 6) and activating NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa B), leading to subsequent C-MYC (C-myelocytomatosis) upregulation. Promoter-reporter assays reveal that Id3 inhibits the E2A protein from activating the P62 promoter. Mice adoptively transferred with B1 cells overexpressing P62 exhibited an increase in B1b cell number and IgMOSE levels and were protected against atherosclerosis. Consistent with murine mechanistic findings, P62 expression in human B1 cells was significantly higher in subjects harboring a function-impairing single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at rs11574 position in the ID3 gene and directly correlated with plasma IgMOSE levels. Conclusions: This study unveils a novel role for P62 in driving BAFF-induced B1b cell proliferation and IgMOSE production to attenuate diet-induced atherosclerosis. Results identify a direct role for Id3 in antagonizing E2A from activating the p62 promoter. Moreover, analysis of putative human B1 cells also implicates these pathways in coronary artery disease subjects, suggesting P62 as a new immunomodulatory target for treating atherosclerosis.
3. CD6 deficiency impairs early immune response to bacterial sepsis

CD6 is a lymphocyte-specific scavenger receptor expressed on adaptive (T) and innate (B1a, NK) immune cells, which is involved in both fine-tuning of lymphocyte activation/differentiation and recognition of bacterial-associated molecular patterns (i.e., lipopolysaccharide). However, evidence on CD6's role in the physiological response to bacterial infection was missing. Our results show that induction of monobacterial and polymicrobial sepsis in Cd6 -/- mice results in lower survival rates and increased bacterial loads and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. Steady state analyses of Cd6 -/- mice show decreased levels of natural polyreactive antibodies, concomitant with decreased cell counts of spleen B1a and marginal zone B cells. Adoptive transfer of wild-type B cells and mouse serum, as well as a polyreactive monoclonal antibody improve Cd6 -/- mouse survival rates post-sepsis. These findings support a nonredundant role for CD6 in the early response against bacterial infection, through homeostatic expansion and functionality of innate-related immune cells.
