In this study, cis-epoxysuccinate hydrolase (CESH)-containing Escherichia coli was used to perform whole-cell bioconversion of cis-epoxysuccinate (CES) to D-tartaric acid and the catalytic efficiency was investigated by ultrasound treatment. The bioconversion rate of CES sodium reached 70.36% after 60 min treated after ultrasound, which is 3-fold higher than that in the control. The specific rate could be further improved by 2-fold after 5 repeated batches compared with the first one, however, the specific rate gradually decreased with the increase of repeat batches (&gt;5 batches). The CESH from Bordetella sp. BK-52 was a typical Michaelis-Menten enzyme with Vmax and Km values of 28.17 mM\/h\/g WCW (wet of cell weight) and 30.18 mM, respectively. The process for the d-tartaric acid bioconversion, which consisted of 102.31 g\/L CES sodium, 8.78 mg\/mL whole cell and ultrasound power of 79.36 W, is further optimized using response surface methodology. The specific rate finally reached 194.79 \u00b1 1.78 mM\/h\/g WCW under the optimal conditions. Furthermore, the permeability of inner and outer membrane was improved approximately 1.6 and 1.4-fold after ultrasound treatment, respectively, which may be a crucial factor for improvement of the bioconversion efficiency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DOI: 10.1016\/j.ultsonch.2017.11.002 Authors: Weiliang Dong, Fenglian Zhao, Fengxue Xin, Aiyong He, Yue Zhang, Hao Wu, Yan Fang, Wenming Zhang, Jiangfeng Ma, Min Jiang Abstract: d-Tartaric acid has wide range of application in the pharmaceutical industry and scarcely exists in nature.
