Radhakrishnan R, Manna B, Ghosh A. Solvent induced conformational changes for the altered activity of laccase: A molecular dynamics study. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 423:127123.

Abstract
The growing demands of solvent-based industries like paint, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, paper and pulp, etc., have directly increased the release of effluents that are rich in hazardous aromatic compounds in the environment. A sustainable biotechnological approach utilizing laccases as biocatalyst enable in biodegradation of these aromatic toxin-rich effluents. However, this enzymatic process is ineffective as laccases lose their stability and catalytic activity at high organic solvent concentrations. In this study, molecular dynamic simulations of a novel solvent tolerant laccase, DLac from Cerrena sp. RSD1 was performed to explore the molecular-level understanding of DLac in 30%(v/v) acetone and acetonitrile. Solvent-induced conformational changes were analyzed via protein structure network, which was illustrated with respect to cliques and communities. In the presence of acetonitrile, the cliques around the active site and substrate-binding site were disjoined, thus the communities lost their network integrity. Whereas with acetone, the community near the substrate-binding site gained new residues and formed a rigidified network that corresponded to enhanced DLac's activity. Moreover, prominent solvent binding sites were speculated, which can be probable mutation targets to further improve solvent tolerance and catalytic activity. The molecular basis behind solvent induced catalytic activity will further aid in engineering laccase for its industrial application.

Abstract
Humification processes of phenolic pollutants may play a profound role in environment purification and plant growth. However, little literature is performed to explore exoenzyme-driven humification to polymerize 17β-estradiol (E2) and humic constituents (HCs), and the effects of their polymeric precipitates on plant growth are usually overlooked. Herein, E2 conversion and radish (Raphanus sativus L.) growth were systematically investigated under humification mediated by extracellular laccase (EL) of Trametes versicolor. Results disclosed that EL-assisted humification achieved a wonderful E2 conversion efficiency (>99%) within 2-h, but the presence of HCs such as humic acid (HA), vanillic acid (VA), and ferulic acid (FA) impeded E2 elimination significantly. Compared with HC-free, the kinetics constants declined by 2.84-, 5.72-, and 5.22-fold with HA, VA, and FA present, respectively. Intriguingly, three close-knit self/cross-linked precipitates (i.e., E2-HA, E2-VA, and E2-FA hybrid precipitates) in dark gray, dark brown, and deep yellow were created after a continuous humification by phenolic radical-initiated polymerization mechanisms. The formation of these humified precipitates was extremely effective on circumventing phytotoxicity caused by monomeric E2, VA, or FA. Furthermore, they acted as humic-like organic fertilizers, accelerating seed germination, root elongation, and enhancing NaCl-tolerance of radish through the combination of oxygen-contained functional components and auxin structural analogues with unstable and stubborn carbon skeletons. This is the first study reporting the pollution purification and plant growth promotion in EL-activated humification. Our findings frame valuable perspectives regarding the natural detoxification and carbon sequestration of phenolic pollutants and the application of their polymeric precipitates in global crop production.

Conversion of lignin-derived 3-methoxycatechol to the natural product purpurogallin using bacterial P450 GcoAB and laccase CueO. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2021; 106:593-603.

Abstract
Purpurogallin is a natural benzotropolone extracted from Quercus spp, which has antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties. Purpurogallin is typically synthesized from pyrogallol using enzymatic or metal catalysts, neither economically feasible nor environmentally friendly. 3-Methoxycatechol (3-MC) is a lignin-derived renewable chemical with the potential to be a substrate for the biosynthesis of purpurogallin. In this study, we designed a pathway to produce purpurogallin from 3-MC. We first characterized four bacterial laccases and identified the laccase CueO from Escherichia coli, which converts pyrogallol to purpurogallin. Then, we used CueO and the P450 GcoAB reported to convert 3-MC to pyrogallol, to construct a method for producing purpurogallin directly from 3-MC. A total of 0.21 ± 0.05 mM purpurogallin was produced from 5 mM 3-MC by whole-cell conversion. This study provides a new method to enable efficient and sustainable synthesis of purpurogallin and offers new insights into lignin valorization. KEY POINTS: • Screening four bacterial laccases for converting pyrogallol to purpurogallin. • Laccase CueO from Escherichia coli presenting the activity for purpurogallin yield. • A novel pathway for converting lignin-derived 3-methoxycatechol to purpurogallin.

Abstract
Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) are a group of molecules that can influence hormonal balance, causing disturbance of the reproductive system and other health problems. Despite the efforts to eliminate EDC in the environment, all current approaches are inefficient and expensive. In previous research, studies revealed that laccase-producing microorganisms may be a potential candidate for EDC degradation, as laccases have been found to be able to degrade many kinds of EDCs effectively and steadily. Here, we created two recombinant laccases, each fused with secretion peptide, Novel Signal Peptide 4 (NSP4), and expressed them in Escherichia coli (E. coli, BL21), together with one laccase without secretion peptide. We first optimized the culture condition of expressing these laccases. Then, we test the activity of the recombinant laccases of decolorizing of a synthetic dye, indigo carmine. Finally, we confirmed the secreted can degrade one of the EDCs, β-estradiol, showing the potential of using the laccase secretion system to degrade toxic compounds.

Abstract
The aim of the present work was to develop an innovative and environmentally friendly process for wood fiber dyeing and to produce 3-dimensionally fully colored medium-density fiberboard (MDF). The potential of laccase-catalyzed polymerization of selected precursors to form dyes useful in fiberboard manufacturing, a technique used for the first time in this field, was demonstrated. Some of the 7 aromatic compounds tested yielded colored products after laccase treatment under both acid and alkaline conditions, and a good variety of colors was attained by using mixtures of two different monomers. To demonstrate the coloration and design potential of laccase conversion of aromatic compounds, MDFs were enzymatically dyed using an in situ one-step laccase-catalyzed coloration process, and the results were compared against commercial MDFs obtained by using organic coloring agents. Important advantages over conventional processing methods include good color fastness and, in some cases, new hydrophobic properties, allowing designers and woodworkers to explore the beauty of textures and the use of simpler and milder processing conditions that eliminate harsh chemical use and reduce energy consumption.

Abstract
Laccases are multi-copper oxidase enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of different compounds (phenolics and non-phenolics). The scientific literature on laccases is quite extensive, including many basic and applied research about the structure, functions, mechanism of action and a variety of biotechnological applications of these versatile enzymes. Laccases can be used in various industries/sectors, from the environmental field to the cosmetics industry, including food processing and the textile industry (dyes biodegradation and synthesis). Known as eco-friendly or green enzymes, the application of laccases in biocatalytic processes represents a promising sustainable alternative to conventional methods. Due to the advantages granted by enzyme immobilization, publications on immobilized laccases increased substantially in recent years. Many patents related to the use of laccases are available, however, the real industrial or environmental use of laccases is still challenged by cost-benefit, especially concerning the feasibility of producing this enzyme on a large scale. Although this is a compelling point and the enzyme market is heated, articles on the production and application of laccases usually neglect the economic assessment of the processes. In this review, we present a description of laccases structure and mechanisms of action including the different sources (fungi, bacteria, and plants) for laccases production and tools for laccases evolution and prediction of potential substrates. In addition, we both compare approaches for scaling-up processes with an emphasis on cost reduction and productivity and critically review several immobilization methods for laccases. Following the critical view on production and immobilization, we provide a set of applications for free and immobilized laccases based on articles published within the last five years and patents which may guide future strategies for laccase use and commercialization.

Abstract
The rising global population and worldwide industrialization have led to unprecedented energy demand that is causing fast depletion of fossil reserves. This has led to search for alternative energy sources that are renewable and environment friendly. Use of lignocellulosic biomass for energy generation is considered a promising approach as it does not compete with food supply. However, the lignin component of the biomass acts as a natural barrier that prevents its efficient utilization. In order to remove the lignin and increase the amount of fermentable sugars, the lignocellulosic biomass is pretreated using physical and chemical methods which are costly and hazardous for environment. Moreover, during the traditional pretreatment process, numerous inhibitory compounds are generated that adversely affect the growth of fermentative microbes. Alternatively, biological methods that use microbes and their enzymes disrupt lignin polymers and increase the accessibility of the carbohydrates for the sugar generation. Microbial laccases have been considered as an efficient biocatalyst for delignification and detoxification offering a green initiative for energy generation process. The present review aims to bring together recent studies in bioenergy generation using laccase biocatalyst in the pretreatment processes. The work provides an overview of the sustainable and eco-friendly approach of biological delignification and detoxification through whole-cell and enzymatic methods, use of laccase-mediator system, and immobilized laccases for this purpose. It also summarizes the advantages, associated challenges, and potential prospects to overcome the limitations.

Abstract
We identified a putative laccase from the thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus yumthangensis. The putative laccase was produced recombinantly and its ability to catalyse the degradation of aromatic organic pollutants was investigated. The putative laccase exhibits broad pH and temperature stability, and, notably, it could catalyse the degradation of organic dyes as well as toxic pollutants including bisphenol A, guaiacol and phenol with a redox mediator. Our work further demonstrates the potential of using oxidative enzymes to break down toxic chemicals that possess major threats to human health and the environment.

Abstract
Laccases are multicopper containing oxidase enzymes that are highly important in environmental remediation and biotechnology. To date, complex Copper containing materials have been reported as laccase mimic, and the possibility of a non-Cu laccase mimic remained unknown. In this work, we report an exceptionally simple functional laccase mimic based on coral-like silver citrate (AgCit) microstructures. The AgCit was synthesized by a simple precipitation method and was found to possess excellent laccase-like activity capable of oxidizing phenolic substrates and the endocrine hormone adrenaline. Compared to the natural laccase enzyme, our reported laccase-mimic has a higher υmax and lower Km value using adrenaline as a substrate. In addition, the AgCit laccase mimic was observed to be stable at extreme pH, higher temperature, and suitable for long-term storage at room temperature. The laccase-like properties of the AgCit nanozyme were successfully applied for the quantification and degradation of various phenolic pollutants and the adrenaline hormone.

Abstract
Prokaryotic laccases are emergent biocatalysts. However, they have not been broadly found and characterized in bacterial organisms, especially in lactic acid bacteria. Recently, a prokaryotic laccase from the lactic acid bacterium Pediococcus acidilactici 5930, which can degrade biogenic amines, was discovered. Thus, our study aimed to shed light on laccases from lactic acid bacteria focusing on two Pediococcus laccases, P. acidilactici 5930 and Pediococcus pentosaceus 4816, which have provided valuable information on their biochemical activities on redox mediators and biogenic amines. Both laccases are able to oxidize canonical substrates as ABTS, ferrocyanide and 2,6-DMP, and non-conventional substrates as biogenic amines. With ABTS as a substrate, they prefer an acidic environment and show sigmoidal kinetic activity, and are rather thermostable. Moreover, this study has provided the first structural view of two lactic acid bacteria laccases, revealing new structural features not seen before in other well-studied laccases, but which seem characteristic for this group of bacteria. We believe that understanding the role of laccases in lactic acid bacteria will have an impact on their biotechnological applications and provide a framework for the development of engineered lactic acid bacteria with enhanced properties.

Abstract
This is the first comprehensive overview of laccase-triggered anabolism from fundamental theory to biotechnology applications. Laccase is a typical biological oxidordeuctase that induces the one-electronic transfer of diverse substrates for engendering four phenoxy radicals with concomitant reduction of O2 into 2H2O. In vivo, laccase can participate in anabolic processes to create multifarious functional biopolymers such as fungal pigments, plant lignins, and insect cuticles, using mono/polyphenols and their derivatives as enzymatic substrates, and is thus conducive to biological tissue morphogenesis and global carbon storage. Exhilaratingly, fungal laccase has high redox potential (E° = 500-800 mV) and thermodynamic efficiency, making it a remarkable candidate for utilization as a versatile catalyst in the green and circular economy. This review elaborates the anabolic mechanisms of laccase in initiating the polymerization of natural phenolic compounds and their derivatives in vivo via radical-based self/cross-coupling. Information is also presented on laccase immobilization engineering that expands the practical application ranges of laccase in biotechnology by improving the enzymatic catalytic activity, stability, and reuse rate. Particularly, advances in biotechnology applications in vitro through fungal laccase-triggered macromolecular biosynthesis may provide a key research direction beneficial to the rational design of green chemistry.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To give a current review of the mechanism of mussel adhesion, the application of mussel-inspired compounds in dentistry and the challenges associated with clinical application. METHODS Inspired by the wet adhesion property of 3,4-dihydroxyphenol-l-alanine (Dopa) in mussel plaques, various chemical compounds have been synthesized to mimic the mussel as an adhesion model for medical applications. Similar to mussels in the marine environment, dental materials in the oral environment have to endure long-term water hydrolysis, mechanical stress and other chemical challenges. These challenges have influenced an increasing number of studies that are exploring the translation of mussel-inspired adhesion to clinical applications. Therefore, this review discusses the mussel adhesion chemistry and its related application in dentistry. RESULTS Mussel-inspired compounds have achieved relatively acceptable performances in various dental fields, including surface coating, metal ions chelation, dentin bonding and mucosal adhesion. However, two practical problems remain to be comprehensively addressed, namely the protection of catechol groups from oxidation, and the feasibility for clinical application. SIGNIFICANCE The mussel's wet adhesion ability has attracted much research interest in the dental field because of its properties of moisture-resistant adhesion and surface coating. Despite the emergence of several mussel-inspired compounds in recent years, a comprehensive and timely review of their applications in dentistry is lacking. Therefore, the current review hopes to provide valuable information around the application of mussel-inspired compounds in dentistry with their pros and cons discussed.

Abstract
Several food commodities can be infected by filamentous fungi, both in the field and during storage. Some of these fungi, under appropriate conditions, are capable of producing a wide range of secondary metabolites, including mycotoxins, which may resist food processing and arise in the final feed and food products. Contamination of these products with mycotoxins still occurs very often and that is why research in this area is valuable and still evolving. The best way to avoid contamination is prevention; however, when it is not possible, remediation is the solution. Enzymatic biodegradation of mycotoxins is a green solution for removal of these compounds that has attracted growing interest over recent years. Due to their ability to detoxify a wide variety of recalcitrant pollutants, laccases have received a lot of attention. Laccases are multi-copper proteins that use molecular oxygen to oxidise various aromatic and non-aromatic compounds, by a radical-catalysed reaction mechanism. Being non-specific, they are capable of degrading a wide range of compounds and the radical species formed can evolve towards both synthetic and degradative processes. The present review provides an overview of structural features, biological functions and catalytic mechanisms of laccases. The utilisation of laccases for mycotoxin degradation is reviewed, as well as shortcomings and future needs related with the use of laccases for mycotoxin decontamination from food and feed.

Abstract
The pulp and paper industry is a major source of lignocellulose-containing streams. The components of lignocellulose material are lignin, hemicellulose, and cellulose that may be hydrolyzed into their smaller components and used as feedstocks for valorization efforts. Much of this material is contained in underutilized streams and waste products, such as black liquor, pulp and paper sludge, and wastewater. Bacterial fermentation strategies have suitable potential to upgrade lignocellulosic biomass contained in these streams to value-added chemicals. Bacterial conversion allows for a sustainable and economically feasible approach to valorizing these streams, which can bolster and expand applications of the pulp and paper industry. This review discusses the composition of pulp and paper streams, bacterial isolates from process streams that can be used for lignocellulose biotransformations, and technological approaches for improving valorization efforts. KEY POINTS: • Reviews the conversion of pulp and paper industry waste by bacterial isolates. • Metabolic pathways for the breakdown of lignocellulose components. • Methods for isolating bacteria, determining value-added products, and increasing product yields.

Abstract
Lignin is abundant in nature. It is a potentially valuable bioresource, but, because of its complex structure, it is difficult to degrade. However, enzymatic degradation of lignin is effective. Major lignin-degrading enzymes include laccases, lignin peroxidases, and manganese peroxidases. In this paper, the mechanisms of degradation of lignin by these three enzymes is reviewed, and synergy between them is discussed.

Abstract
This work aims to achieve the co-immobilization of laccase and 2,2-binamine-di-3-ethylbenzothiazolin-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) to improve removal capability of the biocatalyst for pollutants while avoiding potential pollution caused by ABTS. The laccase was immobilized on magnetic chitosan nanoparticles modified with amino-functionalized ionic liquid containing ABTS (MACS-NIL) based on Cu ion chelation (MACS-NIL-Cu-lac). The carrier was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, x-ray diffraction and etc., and electron paramagnetic resonance confirmed the mediator molecule ABTS on the carrier could also play the role of electron transmission. MACS-NIL-Cu-lac presented relatively high immobilization capacity, enhanced activity (1.7-fold that of free laccase), improved pH and temperature adaptability, and increased thermal and storage stability. The removal performance assay found that MACS-NIL-Cu-lac had a good removal efficiency with 100.0 % for 2,4-dichlorophenol in water at 25 °C, even when the concentration reached 50 mg/L. Reusability study showed that after six catalytic runs, the removal efficiency of 2,4-dichlorophenol by MACS-NIL-Cu-lac could still reach 93.2 %. Additionally, MACS-NIL-Cu-lac exhibited higher catalytic efficiencies with 100.0 %, 70.5 % and 93.3 % for bisphenol A, indole, and anthracene, respectively. The high catalytic performance in pure water system obtained by the novel biocatalyst co-immobilizing laccase and electron mediator ABTS showed greater practical application value.

Abstract
Fungal laccase has aroused great concern in rapidly removing estrogens because of its ability to accelerate humification and oligomerization. Here, the effect of two humic acids (HAs) on the reaction kinetics and products distribution of 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2) in laccase-initiated humification and coupling was systematically elucidated. Laccase from Trametes versicolor exhibited over 98.3% removal rate for EE2 at pH 5.0 within 120 min, while HAs invariably restrained EE2 transformation by competing with target-substrate for the enzymatic catalytic center. EE2 removal followed pseudo-first-order kinetics, and the rate constant was decreased markedly with increasing concentration of two HAs (0-60 mg L-1). Additionally, laccase heightened the aromaticity and humification degrees (A250 nm/A365 nm ratio) of HAs probably due to the formation of new humic polymers such as (HA)m and/or (HA)m-(EE2)n (m and n represent the number of HA and EE2 units, respectively). Three major EE2 oligomers were identified, in accordance with a mechanism involving the phenoxy radical-driven polymerization to yield a wide variety of self-coupling products. Notably, HAs diminished the extent of EE2 self-coupling but aggrandized the cross-coupling between EE2 and HAs, and the inhibition degree of EE2 self-coupling increased with the concentration of HAs. One major reason is EE2 could be covalently incorporated into humic molecules to produce (HA)m-(EE2)n cross-coupling products via radical-caused C-C, C-O-C, and/or C-O-C bonds, thereby reducing EE2 self-oligomerization. These findings highlight that HAs play a vital role in the fungal laccase-induced humification and oligomerization of EE2, which obviously alter the geochemical fate and transport of EE2 in natural aquatic ecosystems.

Abstract
A surface-engineered nano-support for enzyme laccase-immobilization was designed by grafting the surface of halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) with Fe3O4 nanoparticles and chitosan. Herein, HNTs were magnetized (HNTs-M) by a cost-effective reduction-precipitation method. The synthesized HNTs-M were grafted with 0.25%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2% chitosan (HNTs-M-chitosan), respectively. Synthesized HNTs-M-chitosan (0.25%), HNTs-M-chitosan (0.5%), HNTs-M-chitosan (1%) and HNTs-M-chitosan (2%) were linked with glutaraldehyde (GTA) for laccase immobilization. Among these formulations, HNTs-M-chitosan (1%) exhibited the highest laccase immobilization with 95.13% activity recovery and 100.12 mg/g of laccase loading. The optimized material was characterized thoroughly by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) analysis. The immobilized laccase (HNTs-M-chitosan (1%)-GTA-Laccase) exhibited higher pH, temperature, and storage stabilities. The HNTs-M-chitosan (1%)-GTA-Laccase possesses excellent reusability capabilities. At the end of 10 cycles of the reusability experiment, HNTs-M-chitosan (1%)-GTA-Laccase retained 59.88% of its initial activity. The immobilized laccase was utilized for redox-mediated degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX), resulting in 41%, 59%, and 62% degradation of SMX in the presence of 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS), guaiacol (GUA), and syringaldehyde (SA), respectively. Repeated SMX degradation (57.10% after the sixth cycle) confirmed the potential of HNTs-M-chitosan (1%)-GTA-Laccase for environmental pollutant degradation. Thus, we successfully designed chitosan-based, rapidly separable super-magnetic nanotubes for efficacious enhancement of laccase biocatalysis, which can be applied as nano-supports for other enzymes.

Abstract
The two-domain bacterial laccases oxidize substrates at alkaline pH. The role of natural phenolic compounds in the oxidation of substrates by the enzyme is poorly understood. We have studied the role of ferulic and caffeic acids in the transformation of low molecular weight substrates and of soil humic acid (HA) by two-domain laccase of Streptomyces puniceus (SpSL, previously undescribed). A gene encoding a two-domain laccase was cloned from S. puniceus and over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein was purified by affinity chromatography to an electrophoretically homogeneous state. The enzyme showed high thermal stability, alkaline pH optimum for the oxidation of phenolic substrates and an acidic pH optimum for the oxidation of K4[Fe(CN)6] (potassium ferrocyanide) and ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt). Phenolic compounds were oxidized with lower efficiency than K4[Fe(CN)6] and ABTS. The SpSL did not oxidize 3.4-dimethoxybenzoic alcohol and p-hydroxybenzoic acid neither in the absence of phenolic acids nor in their presence. The enzyme polymerized HA-the amount of its high molecular weight fraction (>80 kDa) increased at the expense of low MW fraction (10 kDa). The addition of phenolic acids as potential mediators did not cause the destruction of HA by SpSL. In the absence of the HA, the enzyme polymerized caffeic and ferulic acids to macromolecular fractions (>80 kDa and 10-12 kDa). The interaction of SpSL with HA in the presence of phenolic acids caused an increase in the amount of HA high MW fraction and a two-fold increase in the molecular weight of its low MW fraction (from 10 to 20 kDa), suggesting a cross-coupling reaction. Infrared and solution-state 1H-NMR spectroscopy revealed an increase in the aromaticity of HA after its interaction with phenolic acids. The results of the study expand our knowledge on the transformation of natural substrates by two-domain bacterial laccases and indicate a potentially important role of the enzyme in the formation of soil organic matter (SOM) at alkaline pH values.

Abstract
Estrogens, which are extensive in the eco-environments, are a category of high-toxic emerging contaminants that induce metabolic disorders and even carcinogenic risks in wildlife and humans. Here we investigate whether fungus-secreted laccase can be used as a green catalyst to eliminate a representative estrogen, 17β-estradiol (E2). A white-rot fungus Trametes hirsuta La-7 with high laccase-productivity, was isolated from pig manure-contaminated soil. Extracellular laccase activity expressed by strain La-7 was 65.4 U·mL-1 for a 3 d inoculation under the optimal fermentation parameters. The concentrated-crude laccase from Trametes hirsuta La-7 (CC-ThLac) was capable of effectively metabolizing E2 at pH 4-6, and the apparent pseudo first-order reaction rate constant and half-life values were respectively 0.027-0.055 min-1 and 25.86-12.67 min (R2 > 0.98). The mass measurement of high-resolution mass spectrometry in combination with 13C-isotope labeling identified that the main by-products of E2 metabolism were dimers, trimers, and tetramers, which are consistent with radical-driven C-C and/or C-O-C covalent coupling pathway, involving the initial enzymatic production of phenoxy radical intermediates and then the successive oxidative-oligomerization of radical intermediates. The formation of oligomers dramatically reduced the estrogenic activity of E2. Additionally, CC-ThLac also exhibited high-efficiency metabolism capability toward E2 in the natural water and pig manure, with more than 94.4% and 91.0% of E2 having been metabolized, respectively. These findings provide a broad prospect for the clean biotechnological applications of Trametes hirsuta La-7 in estrogen-contaminated ecosystems.

Abstract
The detection of phenolic compounds is relevant not only for their possible benefits to human health but also for their role as chemical pollutants, including as endocrine disruptors. The required monitoring of such compounds on-site or in field analysis can be performed with electrochemical biosensors made with polyphenol oxidases (PPO). In this review, we describe biosensors containing the oxidases tyrosinase and laccase, in addition to crude extracts and tissues from plants as enzyme sources. From the survey in the literature, we found that significant advances to obtain sensitive, robust biosensors arise from the synergy reached with a diversity of nanomaterials employed in the matrix. These nanomaterials are mostly metallic nanoparticles and carbon nanostructures, which offer a suitable environment to preserve the activity of the enzymes and enhance electron transport. Besides presenting a summary of contributions to electrochemical biosensors containing PPOs in the last five years, we discuss the trends and challenges to take these biosensors to the market, especially for biomedical applications.

Abstract
In recent years, developing potent antioxidants has been a very active area of research. In this context, phenolic compounds have been evaluated for their antioxidant activity. However, the use of phenolic compounds has also been limited by poor antioxidant activity in several in vivo studies. Polymeric phenols have received much attention owing to their potent antioxidant properties and increased stability in aqueous systems. To be truly effective in biological applications, it is important that these polymers be synthesized using benign methods. In this context, enzyme catalyzed synthesis of polymeric phenols has been explored as an environmentally friendly and safer approach. This review summarizes work in enzymatic syntheses of polymers of phenols. Several assays have been developed to determine the antioxidant potency of these polymeric phenols. These assays are discussed in detail along with structure-property relationships. A deeper understanding of factors affecting antioxidant activity would provide an opportunity for the design of versatile, high performing polymers with enhanced antioxidant activity.

Abstract
In order to solve the problem of heavy metal-organic compound soil pollution, in this paper, we developed a highly efficient electro kinetic-laccase combined remediation (EKLCR) system. The results showed that the EKLCR system had an obvious migration effect on heavy metals (copper and cadmium) and good migration-degradation effect on phenanthrene. The migration rates of copper and cadmium were 48.3% and 40.3%, respectively. Especially, with the presence of laccase, the removal rate of phenanthrene on Cu2+-contaminated soil was higher than that of Cd2+-contaminated soil due to the significant effect of heavy metals on the enzymatic activity of laccase. The average migration-degradation rate of phenanthrene by EKLCR system was 45.4%. Finally, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was used to analyze the degradation intermediates of phenanthrene in the soil, which included 9,10-Phenanthrenequinone, phthalic acid, and 2,2-Biphenyldicarboxylic Acid. In addition, we give the possible degradation pathways of phenanthrene, 2,2-Biphenyldicarboxylic Acid is further degraded to produce phthalic acid. The products of the phthalic acid metabolic pathway are protocatechuic acid, pyruvic acid or succinic acid, the final products of these organic acids are carbon dioxide and water.

Abstract
In this research, it has been demonstrated that amino-modified microspheres (A-LMS) based on bio-waste derived material, such as kraft lignin, have good prospects in usage as a support for enzyme immobilization, since active biocatalyst systems were prepared by immobilizing β-galactosidase from A. oryzae and laccase from M. thermophila expressed in A. oryzae (Novozym® 51003) onto A-LMS. Two types of A-LMS were investigated, with different emulsifier concentrations (5 wt% and 10 wt%), and microspheres produced using 5 wt% of emulsifier (A-LMS_5) showed adequate pore shape, size and distribution for enzyme attachment. The type of interactions formed between enzymes (β-galactosidase and laccase) and A-LMS_5 microspheres demonstrated that β-galactosidase is predominantly attached via electrostatic interactions while attachment of laccase is equally governed by electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. Furthermore, the A-LMS_5-β-galactosidase exhibited specificity towards recognized prebiotics (galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS)) synthesis with 1.5-times higher GOS production than glucose production, while for environmental pollutant lindane degradation, the immobilized laccase preparation exhibited high activity with a minimum remaining lindane concentration of 22.4% after 6 days. Thus, this novel enzyme immobilization support A-LMS_5 has potential for use in green biotechnologies.

Abstract
The degradation of alkali lignin was studied using three types of pure enzyme, Lac, LiP, and MnP, using alkali lignin as substrate. The alkali lignin removal rate was found to be 28.98% when Lac, LiP, and MnP were cultured together for alkali lignin degradation. Changes in the structure and composition before and after degradation were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The degradation product pathways were analyzed. The enzyme was proven to degrade alkali lignin, resulting in destruction of the alkali lignin structure, ring-opening of the macromolecular benzene ring structure and groups in alkali lignin, and chemical bond cleavage. This study explains the principle of alkali lignin enzymatic hydrolysis and provides a theoretical basis for the biodegradation of lignin.

Abstract
Laccase-catalyzed attachment of functional molecules onto the surface of bamboo represents an alternative, green approach to improve performance. Although treatment of bamboo with thymol improved resistance to mold, using laccase to fix the same concentration of thymol to the surface of the bamboo could increase both the antifungal activity and resistance to leaching. Leaching of thymol was reduced by as much as 48.4% when laccase was used in thymol fixation. To make clear the mechanisms of fixation, reaction of thymol catalyzed with laccase, was investigated using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, 1H-NMR, high-resolution mass spectrometry and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. Results show that thymol oligomer (l-thymol) was formed with ether linkages, which resist water leaching. Although further confirmatory studies are needed, it seems that ether linkages were the main connection of thymol to lignin. This study demonstrates that laccase catalysis is a promising strategy to functionalize the surface of bamboo in order to bestow new properties suitable for a wide range of applications.

Abstract
Estrogens are a category of non-degradable organic pollutants prevalent in aquatic environments with reported health risks in human and wildlife reproduction. A biotechnological approach is proposed for utilizing fungal laccase-mediated humification reactions (L-MHRs) to remove estrogens from water. Through a reactive radical-mediated C-C, C-O-C, or C-N-C covalent coupling mechanism, multifarious complex polymeric structures are generated having limited solubilities, which significantly reduces their estrogenic activity and ecotoxicity. This review highlights the available literature associated with the self/cross-coupling mechanism of fungal L-MHRs in catalyzing the single-electron oxidation of estrogens and humic acid (HA). Advances in identifying unknown estrogen-HA cross-coupling products using high-resolution mass spectrometry combined with 13C-isotope labeling and 13C NMR may provide key research directions beneficial to aquatic ecological restoration measures.

Abstract
Resveratrol and the biosynthetically related stilbenes are plant secondary metabolites with diverse pharmacological effects. The versatile functions of these compounds in plant defense mechanisms as phytoalexins on one hand, and in human health as potential pharmaceutical agents on the other, have attracted lots of interest in recent years to understand their biosynthetic pathways and their biological properties. Because of difficulties in obtaining resveratrol and its glucosylated derivatives as well as oligomeric forms in sufficient amounts for evaluation of their activity by plant sourcing or total synthesis, biotechnology may provide a competitive approach for the large-scale and low cost production of biologically active stilbenes. Additionally, one major limitation in the use of resveratrol and related aglycone derivatives as therapeutic agents is associated with their inherent poor aqueous solubility and low bioavailability. This article examines approaches for the synthesis of potential pharmacologically resveratrol derivatives in vivo by exploiting whole microorganisms, enzymatic and biocatalytic approaches allowing their full utilization for medicine, food and cosmetic applications. These methods also have the advantage of enabling the one-step production of stilbene compounds, compared to the time-consuming and environmentally unfriendly procedures used for their total synthesis or their extraction from plants. Increasing the desired products yield and biological activity through glucosylation (β-D-glucosides versus α-D-glucosides) and oligomerization methodologies of resveratrol including green chemistry methods in organic solvent-free media are discussed as well.

Abstract
The flavonoid rutin (RU) is a known antioxidant substance of plant origin. Its potential application in pharmaceutical and cosmetic fields is, however, limited, due to its low water solubility. This limitation can be overcome by polymerization of the phenolic RU into polyrutin (PR). In this work, an enzymatic polymerization of RU was performed in water, without the addition of organic solvents. Further, the chemical structure of PR was investigated using 1H NMR, and FTIR spectroscopy. Size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) was used to determine the molecular weight of PR, while its acid/base character was studied by potentiometric charge titrations. Additionally, this work investigated the antioxidant and free radical scavenging potential of PR with respect to its chemical structure, based on its ability to (i) scavenge non biological stable free radicals (ABTS), (ii) scavenge biologically important oxidants, such as O2•, NO•, and OH•, and (iii) chelate Fe2+. The influence of PR on fibroblast and HaCaT cell viability was evaluated to confirm the applicability of water soluble PR for wound healing application.

Abstract
Phenolic contaminants (R-OH) are a category of highly toxic organic compounds that are widespread in aquatic ecosystems and can induce carcinogenic risk to wildlife and humans; natural enzymes as green catalysts are capable of step-polymerizing these compounds to produce diverse macromolecular self-coupling products via radical-mediated C-C and C-O-C bonding at either the ortho- or para-carbon position, thereby evading the bioavailability and ecotoxicity of these compounds. Intriguingly, certain artificial metal and metal-oxide nanomaterials are known as nanozymes. They not only possess the unique properties of nanomaterials but also display intrinsic enzyme-mimicking activities. These artificial nanozymes are expected to surmount the shortcomings, such as low stability, easy inactivation, difficult recycling, and high cost, of natural enzymes, thus contributing to eco-environmental restoration. This review highlights the available studies on the enzymatic characteristics and catalytic mechanisms of natural enzymes and artificial metal and metal-oxide nanozymes in the removal and transformation of R-OH. These advances will provide key research directions beneficial to the multifunctional applications of artificial nanozymes in aquatic ecosystems.

Abstract
Laccases are multicopper-oxidases with variety of biotechnological applications. While predominantly used, fungal laccases have limitations such as narrow pH and temperature range and their production via heterologous protein expression is more complex due to posttranslational modifications. In comparison, bacterial enzymes, including laccases, usually possess higher thermal and pH stability, and are more suitable for expression and genetic manipulations in bacterial expression hosts. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify, recombinantly express, and characterize novel laccases from Pseudomonas spp. A combination of approaches including DNA sequence analysis, N-terminal protein sequencing, and genome sequencing data analysis for laccase amplification, cloning, and overexpression have been used. Four active recombinant laccases were obtained, one each from P. putida KT2440 and P. putida CA-3, and two from P. putida F6. The new laccases exhibited broad temperature and pH range and high thermal stability, as well as the potential to degrade selection of synthetic textile dyes. The best performing laccase was CopA from P. putida F6 which degraded five out of seven tested dyes, including Amido Black 10B, Brom Cresol Purple, Evans Blue, Reactive Black 5, and Remazol Brilliant Blue. This work highlighted species of Pseudomonas genus as still being good sources of biocatalytically relevant enzymes.

Abstract
The polymerization of aniline to polyaniline (PANI) can be achieved chemically, electrochemically or enzymatically. In all cases, the products obtained are mixtures of molecules which are constituted by aniline units. Depending on the synthesis conditions there are variations (i) in the way the aniline molecules are connected, (ii) in the average number of aniline units per molecule, (iii) in the oxidation state, and (iv) in the degree of protonation. For many possible applications, the synthesis of electroconductive PANI with para-N-C-coupled aniline units in their half-oxidized and protonated state is of interest. This is the emeraldine salt form of PANI, abbreviated as PANI-ES. The enzymatic synthesis of PANI-ES is an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional chemical or electrochemical methods. Although many studies have been devoted to the in vitro synthesis of PANI-ES by using heme peroxidases with added hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as the oxidant, the application of laccases is of particular interest since the oxidant for these multicopper enzymes is molecular oxygen (O2) from air, which is beneficial from environmental and economic points of view. In vivo, laccases participate in the synthesis and degradation of lignin. Various attempts of synthesizing PANI-ES with laccase/O2 in slightly acidic aqueous media from aniline or the linear aniline dimer PADPA (p-aminodiphenylamine) are summarized. Advances in the understanding of the positive effects of soft dynamic templates, as chemical structure guiding additives (anionic polyelectrolytes, micelles, or vesicles), for obtaining PANI-ES-rich products are highlighted. Conceptually, some of these template effects appear to be related to the effect "dirigent proteins" exert in the biosynthesis of lignin. In both cases intermediate radicals are formed enzymatically which then must react in a controlled way in follow-up reactions for obtaining the desired products. These follow-up reactions are controlled to some extent by the templates or specific proteins.

Abstract
Achieving global sustainability will require balancing encroaching climate changes while maintaining existing quality of life. Using sunlight to purify wastewater while simultaneously generating usable fuels is an opportunity to approach both targets in a cost-efficient manner. In addition, converting biomass products to usable polymers is a sustainable approach for potentially replacing polystyrene or other petroleum derived polymers. Phenols from medical, manufacturing, and agricultural waste are commonly found in many water sources, and they are known to foul common reverse osmosis membranes. Here, we show oxidative polymerization of guaiacol, an aromatic compound derived from biomass, with concurrent hydrogen gas generation by using platinum-seeded cadmium sulfide nanorods (Pt@CdS) as photocatalysts. Rather than forming short oligomers as typically made by enzymes such as laccase and peroxidase, the resulting polymers show higher molecular weights that can more easily flocculate out of water. By comparing guaiacol conversion to molecular weight and dispersity, the guaiacol was found to polymerize via a chain-growth process. We also show that Pt@CdS can polymerize other phenols as well by testing the monomers phenol, 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid, gallic acid, and vanillin. Lastly, because the aqueous solubility of these aromatic polymers decreases dramatically with molecular weight, polymerization reactions were also tested in biphasic solutions to determine if chain growth could propagate in the oil phase. We show that the Pt@CdS nanoparticles can form stable Pickering emulsions in various biphasic combinations, and that both H2 formation and polymer molecular weight correlated with the partition coefficient of guaiacol into the oil phase as well as the solubility of the growing polymer chains. These combined studies demonstrate the possibility of using nanoscale photocatalysts to oxidatively polymerize phenolic substrates via a chain-growth mechanism, thereby providing a path for pretreating water by flocculating out contaminants with concurrent generation of hydrogen.

Abstract
Thermophilic enzyme systems are of major importance nowadays in all industrial processes due to their great performance at elevated temperatures. In the present review, an overview of the current knowledge on the properties of thermophilic and thermotolerant carbohydrate esterases and oxidative enzymes with great thermostability is provided, with respect to their potential use in biotechnological applications. A special focus is given to the lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases that are able to oxidatively cleave lignocellulose through the use of oxygen or hydrogen peroxide as co-substrate and a reducing agent as electron donor. Structural characteristics of the enzymes, including active site conformation and surface properties are discussed and correlated with their substrate specificity and thermostability properties.
