description | Rapeseed meal (RSM) is a cheap, abundant and renewable feedstock, whose biorefinery is a current challenge for the sustainability of the oilseed sector. RSM is rich in sinapic acid (SA), a <i>p</i>-hydroxycinnamic acid that can be decarboxylated into canolol (2,6-dimethoxy-4-vinylphenol), a valuable bioactive compound. Microbial phenolic acid decarboxylases (PADs), mainly described for the non-oxidative decarboxylation of ferulic and <i>p</i>-coumaric acids, remain very poorly documented to date, for SA decarboxylation. The species <i>Neolentinus lepideus</i> has previously been shown to biotransform SA into canolol in vivo, but the enzyme responsible for bioconversion of the acid has never been characterized. In this study, we purified and characterized a new PAD from the canolol-overproducing strain <i>N. lepideus</i> BRFM15. Proteomic analysis highlighted a sole PAD-type protein sequence in the intracellular proteome of the strain. The native enzyme (<i>Nle</i>PAD) displayed an unusual outstanding activity for decarboxylating SA (V<sub>max</sub> of 600 U.mg<sup>−1</sup>, k<sub>cat</sub> of 6.3 s<sup>−1</sup> and k<sub>cat</sub>/K<sub>M</sub> of 1.6 s<sup>−1</sup>.mM<sup>−1</sup>). We showed that <i>Nle</i>PAD (a homodimer of 2 × 22 kDa) is fully active in a pH range of 5.5–7.5 and a temperature range of 30–55 °C, with optima of pH 6–6.5 and 37–45 °C, and is highly stable at 4 °C and pH 6–8. Relative ratios of specific activities on ferulic, sinapic, <i>p</i>-coumaric and caffeic acids, respectively, were 100:24.9:13.4:3.9. The enzyme demonstrated in vitro effectiveness as a biocatalyst for the synthesis of canolol in aqueous medium from commercial SA, with a molar yield of 92%. Then, we developed processes to biotransform naturally-occurring SA from RSM into canolol by combining the complementary potentialities of an <i>Aspergillus niger</i> feruloyl esterase type-A, which is able to release free SA from the raw meal by hydrolyzing its conjugated forms, and <i>Nle</i>PAD, in aqueous medium and mild conditions. <i>Nle</i>PAD decarboxylation of biobased SA led to an overall yield of 1.6–3.8 mg canolol per gram of initial meal. Besides being the first characterization of a fungal PAD able to decarboxylate SA, this report shows that <i>Nle</i>PAD is very promising as new biotechnological tool to generate biobased vinylphenols of industrial interest (especially canolol) as valuable platform chemicals for health, nutrition, cosmetics and green chemistry. |
