    Abstract Candida auris is a pathogen of urgent threat level as marked by the CDC. The formation of biofilms is an essential property of this fungus to establish infection and escape drug treatment. However, our understanding of pathogenesis through biofilm is hampered by heterogeneity in C. auris biofilms observed in different studies. It is imperative to replicate

    Abstract Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) is a crucial enzyme for various biotechnology applications, such as producing phenols, antioxidants, and nutraceuticals. However, feedback inhibition from its product, cinnamic acid, limits its forward reaction rate. Therefore, this study aims to address the feedback inhibition in PAL using enzyme engineering strategies. Random and site-directed mutagenesis approaches were utilized to screen mutant enzymes with ameliorated tolerance against cinnamic acid. A thermotolerant and cinnamate-tolerant mutant was rationally identified using a high throughput screening method and subsequent biochemical characterization. We evaluated cinnamate affinity among the seven rationally selected mutations, and the T102E mutation was identified as the most promising mutant. This mutant showed a six-fold reduction in the affinity of PAL for cinnamic acid and a two-fold increase in operational stability compared with native PAL. Furthermore, the enzyme was immobilized on carbon nanotubes to increase its robustness and reusability. The immobilized mutant PAL showed greater efficiency in the deamination of phenylalanine present in protein hydrolysate than its free form. The rationale behind the enhancement of cinnamate tolerance was validated using molecular dynamic simulations. Overall, the knowledge of the sequence-function relationship of PAL was applied to drive enzyme engineering to develop highly tolerant PAL.
