Abstract
Biocatalytic membranes combine the separation properties of membranes and the catalytic abilities of enzymes, holding great promise for industries where both purification and conversion are required. In this work, polyelectrolyte complex membranes incorporated with lysozyme were prepared using polyethyleneimine (PEI) and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) through a one-step and mild pH shift aqueous phase separation (APS) approach. The effects of lysozyme addition and casting solution pH on the membrane properties were studied. All the membranes, both with and without added lysozyme, exhibited asymmetric structures with relatively dense top surfaces and porous cross-sections with finger-like macrovoids. The incorporation of lysozyme did not significantly influence the structure and permeability of the formed membranes. The PEI-PSS biocatalytic membranes exhibited temperature dependent enzymatic activity. The activity strongly increased with increased operational temperature, with the highest activity of 4.30 ± 0.15 U cm-2 at 45 °C. This indicates a responsive effect, where a higher temperature leads to some swelling of the polyelectrolyte complex membrane, making the enzyme more accessible to the used substrate. Moreover, the biocatalytic membranes demonstrate desirable enzymatic stability, maintaining 60% activity even after 60 days of storage. This study validates the potential of the water-based APS process as a straightforward approach for integrating enzymes into responsive biocatalytic membranes.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization is a crucial technique for improving the stability of enzymes. Compared with free enzymes, immobilized enzymes offer several advantages in industrial applications. Efficient enzyme immobilization requires a technique that integrates the advantages of physical absorption and covalent binding while addressing the limitations of conventional support materials. This study offers a practical approach for immobilizing α-amylase on a hierarchically porous chitosan (CS) monolith. An optimized CS monolith was fabricated using chemically modified chitin by thermally induced phase separation. By combining physical adsorption and covalent bonding, this technique leverages the amino and hydroxy groups present in CS to facilitate effective enzyme binding and stability. α-Amylase immobilized on the CS monolith demonstrated excellent stability, reusability, and increased activity compared to its soluble counterpart across various pH levels and temperatures. In addition, the CS monolith exhibited a significant potential to immobilize other enzymes, namely, lipase and catalase. Immobilized lipase and catalase exhibited higher loading capacities and enhanced activities than their soluble forms. This versatility highlights the broad applicability of CS monoliths as support materials for various enzymatic processes. This study provides guidelines for fabricating hierarchical porous monolith structures that can provide efficient enzyme utilization in flow systems and potentially enhance the cost-effectiveness of enzymes in industrial applications.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilized on magnetic nanomaterials is a promising biocatalyst with efficient recovery under applied magnets. In this study, a recombinant extracellular lipase from Aspergillus niger GZUF36 (PEXANL1) expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115 was immobilized on ionic liquid-modified magnetic nano ferric oxide (Fe3O4@SiO2@ILs) via electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction. The morphology, structure, and properties of Fe3O4@SiO2@ILs and immobilized PEXANL1 were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, vibration sample magnetometer, and zeta potential analysis. Under optimized conditions, the immobilization efficiency and activity recovery of immobilized PEXANL1 were 52 ± 2% and 122 ± 2%, respectively. The enzymatic properties of immobilized PEXANL1 were also investigated. The results showed that immobilized PEXANL1 achieved the maximum activity at pH 5.0 and 45 °C, and the lipolytic activity of immobilized PEXANL1 was more than twice that of PEXANL1. Compared to PEXANL1, immobilized PEXANL1 exhibited enhanced tolerance to temperature, metal ions, surfactants, and organic solvents. The operation stability experiments revealed that immobilized PEXANL1 maintained 86 ± 3% of its activity after 6 reaction cycles. The enhanced catalytic performance in enzyme immobilization on Fe3O4@SiO2@ILs made nanobiocatalysts a compelling choice for bio-industrial applications. Furthermore, Fe3O4@SiO2@ILs could also benefit various industrial enzymes and their practical uses. KEY POINTS: • Immobilized PEXANL1 was confirmed by SEM, FT-IR, and XRD. • The specific activity of immobilized PEXANL1 was more than twice that of PEXANL1. • Immobilized PEXANL1 had improved properties with good operational stability.

Abstract
Thin films of conjugated polymer and enzyme can be used to unravel the interaction between components in a biosensor. Using artificial neural networks (ANNs) improves data interpretability and helps construct models with great capacity for classifying and processing information. The present work used kinetic data from the catalytic activity of urease immobilized in different conjugated polymers to create ANN models using time, substrate concentration, and absorbance as input variables since the models had absorbance in a posterior instant as output value to explore the predictivity of the ANNs. The performance of the models was evaluated by Pearson's correlation coefficient (ρ) and mean squared error (MSE) values. After the learning process, a series of new experiments were performed to verify the generality of the models. As the main results, the best ANN model presented 0.9980 and 3.0736 × 10-5 for ρ and MSE, respectively. For the simulation step, intermediary values of substrate concentration were used. The mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) values were 3.34, 3.07, and 3.78 for 12 mM, 22 mM, and 32 mM concentrations, respectively. Overall, with the simulations, it was possible to ascertain the interpolatory capacity of the model, which has a learning mechanism based on absorbance and time as variables. Thus, the potential of ANNs would be in their use in pre-evaluations, helping to determine the substrate concentration at which there is higher catalytic activity or in determining the linear range of the sensor.

Abstract
Excessive CO2 and food shortage are two grand challenges of human society. Directly converting CO2 into food materials can simultaneously alleviate both, like what green crops do in nature. Nevertheless, natural photosynthesis has a limited energy efficiency due to low activity and specificity of key enzyme D-ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO). To enhance the efficiency, many prior studies focused on engineering the enzymes, but this study chooses to learn from the nature to design more efficient reactors. This work is original in mimicking the stacked structure of thylakoids in chloroplasts to immobilize RuBisCO in a microreactor using the layer-by-layer strategy, obtaining the continuous conversion of CO2 into glucose precursor at 1.9 nmol min-1 with enhanced activity (1.5 times), stability (≈8 times), and reusability (96% after 10 reuses) relative to the free RuBisCO. The microreactors are further scaled out from one to six in parallel and achieve the production at 15.8 nmol min-1 with an energy conversion efficiency of 3.3 times of rice, showing better performance of this artificial synthesis than NPS in terms of energy conversion efficiency. The exploration of the potential of mass production would benefit both food supply and carbon neutralization.

Abstract
With the emergence of penicillin resistance, the development of novel antibiotics has become an urgent necessity. Semi-synthetic penicillin has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional penicillin. The demand for the crucial intermediate, 6-aminopicillanic acid (6-APA), is on the rise. Enzyme catalysis is the primary method employed for its production. However, due to certain limitations, the strategy of enzyme immobilization has also gained prominence. The magnetic Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by a rapid-combustion method. Sodium silicate was used to modify the surface of the Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticles to obtain silica-coated nanoparticles (Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4-SiO2). Subsequently, in order to better crosslink PGA, the nanoparticles were modified again with glutaraldehyde to obtain glutaraldehyde crosslinked Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4-SiO2-GA nanoparticles which could immobilize the PGA. The structure of the PGA protein was analyzed by the PyMol program and the immobilization strategy was determined. The conditions of PGA immobilization were investigated, including immobilization time and PGA concentration. Finally, the enzymological properties of the immobilized and free PGA were compared. The optimum catalytic pH of immobilized and free PGA was 8.0, and the optimum catalytic temperature of immobilized PGA was 50°C, 5°C higher than that of free PGA. Immobilized PGA in a certain pH and temperature range showed better catalytic stability. Vmax and Km of immobilized PGA were 0.3727 μmol·min-1 and 0.0436 mol·L-1, and the corresponding free PGA were 0.7325 μmol·min-1 and 0.0227 mol·L-1. After five cycles, the immobilized enzyme activity was still higher than 25%.

Abstract
Laccases are polyphenol oxidase enzymes and form the enzyme complex known for their role in wood decomposition and lignin degradation. The present study aimed to systematically review the state-of-the-art trends in scientific publications on laccase enzymes of the last 10 years. The main aspects checked included the laccase-producing fungal genera, the conditions of fungal growth and laccase production, the methods of immobilization, and potential applications of laccase. After applying the systematic search method 177 articles were selected to compound the final database. Although various fungi produce laccase, most studies were Trametes and Pleurotus genera. The submerged fermentation (SmF) has been the most used, however, the use of solid-state fermentation (SSF) appeared as a promising technique to produce laccase when using agro-industrial residues as substrates. Studies on laccase immobilization showed the covalent bonding and entrapment methods were the most used, showing greater efficiency of immobilization and a high number of enzyme reuses. The main use of the laccase was in bioremediation, especially in the discoloration of dyes from the textile industry and the degradation of pharmaceutical waste. Implications and consequences of all these findings in biotechnology and environment, as well as the trends and gaps of laccase research were discussed.

Abstract
From the environmental point of view, azo dye industrial effluent is a major public health concern due to its toxic, carcinogenic, and teratogenic characteristics. On the other hand, using enzyme-based technologies offers a promising systematic and controllable method for removing synthetic dyes from wastewater. In the present study, yttrium (Y3+) phosphate was applied for the synthesis of hybrid nanoparticles (HNPs) consisting of laccase as the green catalyst. When the association of HNPs was fixed by glutaraldehyde (GA), three-dimensional cubic structures with the regular arrangement were provided. GA increased the reusability of the fabricated hybrid nanostructures (HNSs) up to 32 successive cycles. About 85% of Direct Blue-15 was removed after a 4 h-treatment using laccase@YPO4•HNPs and laccase@GA@YPO4•HNSs. The azo dye removal data were well-fitted with a pseudo-second-order model for both types of the prepared HNSs. For the model freshwater green alga Raphidocelis subcapitata, the half maximal effective concentration (EC50) of the dye decreased 10- and 100-fold after the removal with laccase@YPO4•HNPs and laccase@GA@YPO4•HNSs, respectively. GA-treated HNSs (250 U L-1) inhibited the biofilm formation by approximately 78%, 82%, and 79% for Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus subtilis, respectively. Thus, the fabricated laccase@GA@YPO4•HNSs could be presented as a novel, efficient, and recyclable heterogeneous biocatalyst for wastewater treatment and clean-up.

Yuan Y, Shen J, Salmon S. Developing Enzyme Immobilization with Fibrous Membranes: Longevity and Characterization Considerations. MEMBRANES 2023; 13:membranes13050532. [PMID: 37233593 DOI: 10.3390/membranes13050532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 04/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
Fibrous membranes offer broad opportunities to deploy immobilized enzymes in new reactor and application designs, including multiphase continuous flow-through reactions. Enzyme immobilization is a technology strategy that simplifies the separation of otherwise soluble catalytic proteins from liquid reaction media and imparts stabilization and performance enhancement. Flexible immobilization matrices made from fibers have versatile physical attributes, such as high surface area, light weight, and controllable porosity, which give them membrane-like characteristics, while simultaneously providing good mechanical properties for creating functional filters, sensors, scaffolds, and other interface-active biocatalytic materials. This review examines immobilization strategies for enzymes on fibrous membrane-like polymeric supports involving all three fundamental mechanisms of post-immobilization, incorporation, and coating. Post-immobilization offers an infinite selection of matrix materials, but may encounter loading and durability issues, while incorporation offers longevity but has more limited material options and may present mass transfer obstacles. Coating techniques on fibrous materials at different geometric scales are a growing trend in making membranes that integrate biocatalytic functionality with versatile physical supports. Biocatalytic performance parameters and characterization techniques for immobilized enzymes are described, including several emerging techniques of special relevance for fibrous immobilized enzymes. Diverse application examples from the literature, focusing on fibrous matrices, are summarized, and biocatalyst longevity is emphasized as a critical performance parameter that needs increased attention to advance concepts from lab scale to broader utilization. This consolidation of fabrication, performance measurement, and characterization techniques, with guiding examples highlighted, is intended to inspire future innovations in enzyme immobilization with fibrous membranes and expand their uses in novel reactors and processes.

Abstract
Here, lipase encapsulation is constructed by locking enzyme molecules in nanomolecular cages on the surface of SH-PEI@PVAC magnetic microspheres. To improve the encapsulation efficiency in enzyme loading, the thiol group is efficiently modified on the grafted polyethyleneimine (PEI) using 3-mercaptopropionic acid. N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms reveal the existence of mesoporous molecular cages on the microsphere surface. The robust immobilizing strength of carriers to lipase demonstrates the successful encapsulation of enzymes in nanomolecular cages. The encapsulated lipase shows high enzyme loading (52.9 mg/g) and high activity (51.4 U/mg). Different sizes of molecular cages are established, and the cage size showed important effects on lipase encapsulation. It shows that enzyme loading is low at a small size of molecular cages, which is attributed to that the nanomolecular cage is too small to house lipase. The investigation in lipase conformation suggests that the encapsulated lipase retains its active conformation. Compared with the adsorbed lipase, the encapsulated lipase shows higher thermal stability (4.9 times) and higher resistance to denaturants (5.0 times). Encouragingly, the encapsulated lipase shows high activity and reusability in lipase-catalyzed synthesis of propyl laurate, suggesting the potential application value of encapsulated lipase.

Abstract
The synergistic combination of current biotechnological and nanotechnological research has turned to multienzyme co-immobilization as a promising concept to design biocatalysis engineering. It has also intensified the development and deployment of multipurpose biocatalysts, for instance, multienzyme co-immobilized constructs, via biocatalysis/protein engineering to scale-up and fulfil the ever-increasing industrial demands. Considering the characteristic features of both the loaded multienzymes and nanostructure carriers, i.e., selectivity, specificity, stability, resistivity, induce activity, reaction efficacy, multi-usability, high catalytic turnover, optimal yield, ease in recovery, and cost-effectiveness, multienzyme-based green biocatalysts have become a powerful norm in biocatalysis/protein engineering sectors. In this context, the current state-of-the-art in enzyme engineering with a synergistic combination of nanotechnology, at large, and nanomaterials, in particular, are significantly contributing and providing robust tools to engineer and/or tailor enzymes to fulfil the growing catalytic and contemporary industrial needs. Considering the above critics and unique structural, physicochemical, and functional attributes, herein, we spotlight important aspects spanning across prospective nano-carriers for multienzyme co-immobilization. Further, this work comprehensively discuss the current advances in deploying multienzyme-based cascade reactions in numerous sectors, including environmental remediation and protection, drug delivery systems (DDS), biofuel cells development and energy production, bio-electroanalytical devices (biosensors), therapeutical, nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, and pharmaceutical oriented applications. In conclusion, the continuous developments in nano-assembling the multienzyme loaded co-immobilized nanostructure carriers would be a unique way that could act as a core of modern biotechnological research.

Scalability of U-Shape Magnetic Nanoparticles-Based Microreactor–Lipase-Catalyzed Preparative Scale Kinetic Resolutions of Drug-like Fragments. Catalysts 2023.

Abstract
The production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and fine chemicals is accelerating due to the advent of novel microreactors and new materials for immobilizing customized biocatalysts that permit long-term use in continuous-flow reactors. This work studied the scalability of a tunable U-shape magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs)-based microreactor. The reactor consisted of a polytetrafluoroethylene tube (PTFE) of various inner diameters (ID = 0.75 mm, 1.50 mm, or 2.15 mm) and six movable permanent magnets positioned under the tube to create reaction chambers allowing the fluid reaction mixture to flow through and above the enzyme-loaded MNPs anchored by permanent magnets. The microreactors with various tube sizes and MNP capacities were tested with the preparative scale kinetic resolution of the drug-like alcohols 4-(3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl)butan-2-ol (±)-1a and 4-(3,4-dihydroquinolin-1(2H)-yl)butan-2-ol (±)-1b, utilizing Lipase B from Candida antarctica immobilized covalently onto MNPs, leading to highly enantioenriched products [(R)-2a,b and (S)-1a,b]. The results in the U-shape MNP flow reactor were compared with reactions in the batch mode with CaLB-MNPs using similar conditions. Of the three different systems, the one with ID = 1.50 mm showed the best balance between the maximum loading capacity of biocatalysts in the reactor and the most effective cross-section area. The results showed that this U-shaped tubular microreactor might be a simple and flexible instrument for many processes in biocatalysis, providing an easy-to-set-up alternative to existing techniques.

Abstract
Immobilizing enzymes with nanozymes to catalyze cascade reactions overcomes many of the shortcomings of biological enzymes in industrial manufacturing. In the study, glucose oxidases were covalently bound to FeS2 nanozymes as immobilization carriers while chitosan encapsulation increased the activity and stability of the immobilized enzymes. The immobilized enzymes exhibited a 10% greater increase in catalytic efficiency than the free enzymes while also being more stable and catalytically active in environments with an alkaline pH of 9.0 and a high temperature of 100 °C. Additionally, the FeS2 nanozyme-driven double-enzyme cascade reaction showed high glucose selectivity, even in the presence of lactose, dopamine, and uric acid, with a limit of detection (LOD) (S/N = 3) as low as 1.9 × 10-6 M. This research demonstrates that nanozymes may be employed as ideal carriers for biological enzymes and that the nanozymes can catalyze cascade reactions together with natural enzymes, offering new insights into interactions between natural and synthetic biosystems.

Synthesis of Ibuprofen Monoglyceride Using Novozym®435: Biocatalyst Activation and Stabilization in Multiphasic Systems. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
This work was focused on the enzymatic esterification of glycerol and ibuprofen at high concentrations in two triphasic systems composed of toluene+ibuprofene (apolar) and glycerol or glycerol–water (polar) liquid phases, and a solid phase with the industrial immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica named Novozym®435 (N435) acting as the biocatalyst. Based on a preliminary study, the concentration of the enzyme was set at 30 g·L−1 and the stirring speed at 720 r.p.m to reduce external mass transfer limitations. To obtain more information on the reaction system, it was conducted at a wide range of temperatures (50 to 80 °C) and initial concentrations of ibuprofen (20–100 g·L−1, that is, 97 to 483 mM). Under these experimental conditions, the external mass transfer, according to the Mears criterion (Me = 1.47–3.33·10−4 << 0.15), was fast, presenting no limitation to the system productivity, regardless of the presence of water and from 50 to 80 °C. Considering that the enzyme is immobilized in a porous ion-exchange resin, limitations due to internal mass transfer can exist, depending on the values of the effectiveness factor (η). It varied from 0.14 to 0.23 at 50 to 80 °C and 0.32–1 mm particle diameter range in the absence of water, and in the same ranges, from 0.40 to 0.66 in the presence of 7.4% w/w water in the glycerol phase. Thus, it is evident that some limitation occurs due to mass transfer inside the pores, while the presence of water in the polar phase increases the productivity 3–4 fold. During the kinetic study, several kinetic models were proposed for both triphasic reacting systems, with and without first-order biocatalyst deactivation, and their fit to all relevant experimental data led to the observation that the best kinetic model was a reversible hyperbolic model with first-order deactivation in the anhydrous reaction system and a similar model, but without deactivation, for the system with added water at zero time. This fact is in sharp contrast to the use of N435 in a water-glycerol monophasic system, where progressive dissolution of ibuprofen in the reacting media, together with a notable enzyme deactivation, is observed.

Abstract
Against the backdrop of towering ecological health implications of estrogen pollution and the inefficacies associated with cost-intensive treatment techniques, this study recorded the earliest attempt of developing an inexpensive bacterial laccase-based biocatalysts for biodegradation of EDCs (Endocrine disrupting compounds), particularly estrogens. First, a central composite design was used to investigate the interactive effects of pH (6.0–8.0), inoculum size (100–500 U/mL), and copper (Cu) (25–75 mg/L) on laccase activity and estrogen degradation respectively. Thereafter, biocatalysts was synthesized comprising laccase and glass beads or silver impregnated clay granules (SICG), which was further used to treat estrogen infused aquatic matrices under different reaction conditions. Maximum laccase activities and estrogen removal for the two tested laccases were 620 U/mL (85.8–92.9%) and 689.8 U/mL (86.8–94.6%) for Lysinibacillus sp. BP1 and Lysinibacillus sp. BP2, respectively, within 72 h, under conditions of optimal inoculum size and/or Cu concentration. Apart from a higher estrogen removal rate compared to free laccased, the biocatalysts were more resistant to temperature, pH and other environmental perturbations, and had enhanced storage ability and reusability. In comparison to clay, beads had a higher potential for recyclability and were more stable under certain experimental factors such as pH, reuse, and temperature, as well as storage conditions. Immobilized enzymes were able to remove 100% of E2, as well as over 90% of E1 and EE2, in 24 h, indicating that they could be scaled up to benchtop bioreactor levels.

Abstract
Ceramic materials with high surface area, large and open porosity are considered excellent supports for enzyme immobilization owing to their stability and reusability. The present study reports the electrospinning of aluminum silicate nanofiber supports from sol-gel precursors, the impact of different fabrication parameters on the microstructure of the nanofibers and their performance in enzyme immobilization. A change in nanofiber diameter and pore size of the aluminum silicate nanofibers was observed upon varying specific processing parameters, such as the sol-composition (precursor and polymer concentration), the electrospinning parameters and the subsequent heat treatment (calcination temperature). The enzyme, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), was immobilized on the aluminum silicate nanofibers by physical adsorption and covalent bonding. Activity retention of 17% and 42% was obtained after 12 d of storage and repeated reaction cycles for physically adsorbed and covalently bonded ADH, respectively. Overall, the immobilization of ADH on aluminum silicate nanofibers resulted in high enzyme loading and activity retention. However, as compared to covalent immobilization, a marked decrease in the enzyme activity during storage for physically adsorbed enzymes was observed, which was ascribed to leakage of the enzymes from the nanofibers. Such fibers can improve enzyme stability and promote a higher residual activity of the immobilized enzyme as compared to the free enzyme. The results shown in this study thus suggest that aluminum silicate nanofibers, with their high surface area, are promising support materials for the immobilization of enzymes.

[PMID: 35936452 PMCID: PMC9352229 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.2c02815] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Although many different methods are known for the immobilization of enzymes on solid supports for use in flow-through applications as enzyme reactors, the reproducible immobilization of predetermined amounts of catalytically active enzyme molecules remains challenging. This challenge was tackled using a macro- and mesoporous silica monolith as a support and dendronized polymer-enzyme conjugates. The conjugates were first prepared in an aqueous solution by covalently linking enzyme molecules and either horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) along the chains of a water-soluble second-generation dendronized polymer using an established procedure. The obtained conjugates are stable biohybrid structures in which the linking unit between the dendronized polymer and each enzyme molecule is a bisaryl hydrazone (BAH) bond. Quantitative and reproducible enzyme immobilization inside the monolith is possible by simply adding a defined volume of a conjugate solution of a defined enzyme concentration to a dry monolith piece of the desired size. In that way, (i) the entire volume of the conjugate solution is taken up by the monolith piece due to capillary forces and (ii) all conjugates of the added conjugate solution remain stably adsorbed (immobilized) noncovalently without detectable leakage from the monolith piece. The observed flow-through activity of the resulting enzyme reactors was directly proportional to the amount of conjugate used for the reactor preparation. With conjugate solutions consisting of defined amounts of both types of conjugates, the controlled coimmobilization of the two enzymes, namely, BCA and HRP, was shown to be possible in a simple way. Different stability tests of the enzyme reactors were carried out. Finally, the enzyme reactors were applied to the catalysis of a two-enzyme cascade reaction in two types of enzymatic flow-through reactor systems with either coimmobilized or sequentially immobilized BCA and HRP. Depending on the composition of the substrate solution that was pumped through the two types of enzyme reactor systems, the coimmobilized enzymes performed significantly better than the sequentially immobilized ones. This difference, however, is not due to a molecular proximity effect with regard to the enzymes but rather originates from the kinetic features of the cascade reaction used. Overall, the method developed for the controllable and reproducible immobilization of enzymes in the macro- and mesoporous silica monolith offers many possibilities for systematic investigations of immobilized enzymes in enzymatic flow-through reactors, potentially for any type of enzyme.

Abstract
Biocatalysis is a key tool in both green chemistry and biorefinery fields. NOV1 is a dioxygenase that catalyzes the one-step, coenzyme-free oxidation of isoeugenol into vanillin and holds enormous biotechnological potential for the complete valorization of lignin as a sustainable starting material for biobased chemicals, polymers, and materials. This study integrates computational, kinetic, structural, and biophysical approaches to characterize a new NOV1 variant featuring improved activity and stability compared to those of the wild type. The S283F replacement results in a 2-fold increased turnover rate (kcat) for isoeugenol and a 4-fold higher catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) for molecular oxygen compared to those of the wild type. Furthermore, the variant exhibits a half-life that is 20-fold higher than that of the wild type, which most likely relates to the enhanced stabilization of the iron cofactor in the active site. Molecular dynamics supports this view, revealing that the S283F replacement decreases the optimal pKa and favors conformations of the iron-coordinating histidines compatible with an increased level of binding to iron. Importantly, whole cells containing the S283F variant catalyze the conversion of ≤100 mM isoeugenol to vanillin, yielding >99% molar conversion yields within 24 h. This integrative strategy provided a new enzyme for biotechnological applications and mechanistic insights that will facilitate the future design of robust and efficient biocatalysts.

Abstract
Enzyme catalysis has clear advantages in the process of oxidizing glucose to produce gluconic acid. In the enzyme cascade, the improvement of the cascade efficiency is desired but challenging. Graphene oxide (GO) and ZIF-8 composites as enzyme support offer the promising opportunity that not only the cascade efficiency can be improved by control the distance between two enzymes, but also the stability can be improved. Here, a new strategy of GO assisted co-growth of ZIF-8 and enzyme was carried in a one-pot synthesis. Glucose oxidase&catalase immobilized in the ZIF-8/GO composites can obtain 98% residual activity after 15 days of storage with almost no enzyme shedding. The residual activity is still higher than 75% after 5 repeated uses. The presented method of controllable growth of metal organic frameworks on 2D nanosheet can also be extended for renewable energy devices, gas storage and separation of small molecules.

Abstract
A new approach was used for the immobilization of Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (TLL), Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB), and Rhizomucor miehei lipase (RML) on amine-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2) via a multi-component reaction route (using cyclohexyl isocyanide). The used method offered a single-step and very fast process for covalent attachment of the lipases under extremely mild reaction conditions (25 °C, water, and pH 7.0). Rapid and simple immobilization of 20 mg of RML, TLL, and CALB on 1 g of the support produced 100%, 98.5%, and 99.2% immobilization yields, respectively, after 2 h of incubation. The immobilized derivatives were then used for biodiesel production from waste cooking oil. Response surface methodology (RSM) in combination with central composite rotatable design (CCRD) was employed to evaluate and optimize the biodiesel production. The effect of some parameters such as catalyst amount, reaction temperature, methanol concentration, water content for TLL or water-adsorbent for RML and CALB, and ratio of t-butanol (wt%) were investigated on the fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) yield.

Abstract
Enzymes of commercial importance, such as lipase, amylase, laccase, phytase, carbonic anhydrase, pectinase, maltase, glucose oxidase etc., show multifunctional features and have been extensively used in several fields including fine chemicals, environmental, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, energy, food industry, agriculture and nutraceutical etc. The deployment of biocatalyst in harsh industrial conditions has some limitations, such as poor stability. These drawbacks can be overcome by immobilizing the enzyme in order to boost the operational stability, catalytic activity along with facilitating the reuse of biocatalyst. Nowadays, functionalized polymers and composites have gained increasing attention as an innovative material for immobilizing the industrially important enzyme. The different types of polymeric materials and composites are pectin, agarose, cellulose, nanofibers, gelatin, and chitosan. The functionalization of these materials enhances the loading capacity of the enzyme by providing more functional groups to the polymeric material and hence enhancing the enzyme immobilization efficiency. However, appropriate coordination among the functionalized polymeric materials and enzymes of interest plays an important role in producing emerging biocatalysts with improved properties. The optimal coordination at a biological, physical, and chemical level is requisite to develop an industrial biocatalyst. Bio-catalysis has become vital aspect in pharmaceutical and chemical industries for synthesis of value-added chemicals. The present review describes the current advances in enzyme immobilization on functionalized polymers and composites. Furthermore, the applications of immobilized enzymes in various sectors including bioremediation, biosensor and biodiesel are also discussed.

Abstract
The Amazon rainforest has a rich biodiversity, and studies of Basidiomycete fungi that have biomolecules of biotechnological interest are relevant. The use of lignocellulosic biomass in biotechnological processes proposes an alternative use, and also adds value to the material when employed in the bioconversion of agro-industrial waste. In this context, this study evaluate the production of lignocellulolytic enzymes (carboxymethylcellulases (CMCase), xylanase, pectinase, laccase) as well as phenolic compounds and proteases by solid-state fermentation (SSF) using the fungus Lentinus strigosus isolated from Amazon. The guarana (Paullinia cupana) residue was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). SSF was carried out with 60% humidification of the residue, at 30 °C, for 10 days. The lignocellulosic biomass presented fragmented structures with irregular shapes and porosities, and was mainly constituted by cellulose (19.16%), hemicellulose (32.83%), and lignin (6.06%). During the SSF, significant values of CMCase (0.84 U/g) on the 8th day, xylanase (1.00 U/g) on the 7th day, pectinase (2.19 U/g) on the 6th day, laccase (176.23 U/mL) on the 5th day, phenolic compounds (10.27 μg/mL) on the 1st day, soluble proteins (0.08 mg/mL) on the 5th day, and protease (8.30 U/mL) on the 6th day were observed. In general, the agro-industrial residue used provided promising results as a viable alternative for use as a substrate in biotechnological processes.

Abstract
Microbial lipase is looking for better attention with the fast growth of enzyme proficiency and other benefits like easy, cost-effective, and reliable manufacturing. Immobilized enzymes can be used repetitively and are incapable to catalyze the reactions in the system continuously. Hydrophobic supports are utilized to immobilize enzymes when the ionic strength is low. This approach allows for the immobilization, purification, stability, and hyperactivation of lipases in a single step. The diffusion of the substrate is more advantageous on hydrophobic supports than on hydrophilic supports in the carrier. These approaches are critical to the immobilization performance of the enzyme. For enzyme immobilization, synthesis provides a higher pH value as well as greater heat stability. Using a mixture of immobilization methods, the binding force between enzymes and the support rises, reducing enzyme leakage. Lipase adsorption produces interfacial activation when it is immobilized on hydrophobic support. As a result, in the immobilization process, this procedure is primarily used for a variety of industrial applications. Microbial sources, immobilization techniques, and industrial applications in the fields of food, flavor, detergent, paper and pulp, pharmaceuticals, biodiesel, derivatives of esters and amino groups, agrochemicals, biosensor applications, cosmetics, perfumery, and bioremediation are all discussed in this review.

Abstract
Immobilized enzyme-based catalytic constructs could greatly improve various industrial processes due to their extraordinary catalytic activity and reaction specificity. In recent decades, nano-enzymes, defined as enzyme immobilized on nanomaterials, gained popularity for the enzymes' improved stability, reusability, and ease of separation from the biocatalytic process. Thus, enzymes can be strategically incorporated into nanostructured materials to engineer nano-enzymes, such as nanoporous particles, nanofibers, nanoflowers, nanogels, nanomembranes, metal-organic frameworks, multi-walled or single-walled carbon nanotubes, and nanoparticles with tuned shape and size. Surface-area-to-volume ratio, pore-volume, chemical compositions, electrical charge or conductivity of nanomaterials, protein charge, hydrophobicity, and amino acid composition on protein surface play fundamental roles in the nano-enzyme preparation and catalytic properties. With proper understanding, the optimization of the above-mentioned factors will lead to favorable micro-environments for biocatalysts of industrial relevance. Thus, the application of nano-enzymes promise to further strengthen the advances in catalysis, biotransformation, biosensing, and biomarker discovery. Herein, this review article spotlights recent progress in nano-enzyme development and their possible implementation in different areas, including biomedicine, biosensors, bioremediation of industrial pollutants, biofuel production, textile, leather, detergent, food industries and antifouling.

Abstract
Scalability, process control, and modularity are some of the advantages that make flow biocatalysis a key-enabling technology for green and sustainable chemistry. In this context, rigid porous solid membranes hold the promise to expand the toolbox of flow biocatalysis due to their chemical stability and inertness. Yttrium-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) fulfills these properties; however, it has been scarcely exploited as a carrier for enzymes. Here, we discovered an unprecedented interaction between YSZ materials and His-tagged enzymes that enables the fabrication of multifunctional biocatalytic membranes for bioredox cascades. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy suggests that enzyme immobilization is driven by coordination interactions between the imidazole groups of His-tags and both Zr and Y atoms. As model enzymes, we coimmobilized in-flow a thermophilic hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (TtHBDH-His) and a formate dehydrogenase (His-CbFDH) for the continuous asymmetric reduction of ethyl acetoacetate with in situ redox cofactor recycling. Fluorescence confocal microscopy deciphered the spatial organization of the two coimmobilized enzymes, pointing out the importance of the coimmobilization sequence. Finally, the coimmobilized system succeeded in situ, recycling the redox cofactor, maintaining the specific productivity using only 0.05 mM NADH, and accumulating a total enzyme turnover number of 4000 in 24 h. This work presents YSZ materials as ready-to-use carriers for the site-directed enzyme in-flow immobilization and the application of the resulting heterogeneous biocatalysts for continuous biomanufacturing.

Abstract
Multi-enzyme cascade catalysis involved three types of dehydrogenase enzymes, namely, formate dehydrogenase (FDH), formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FaldDH), alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), and an equimolar electron donor, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), assisting the reaction is an interesting pathway to reduce thermodynamically stable molecules of CO2 from the atmosphere. The biocatalytic sequence is interesting because it operates under mild reaction conditions (low temperature and pressure) and all the enzymes are highly selective, which allows the reaction to produce three basic chemicals (formic acid, formaldehyde, and methanol) in just one pot. There are various challenges, however, in applying the enzymatic conversion of CO2, namely, to obtain high productivity, increase reusability of the enzymes and cofactors, and to design a simple, facile, and efficient reactor setup that will sustain the multi-enzymatic cascade catalysis. This review reports on enzyme-aided reactor systems that support the reduction of CO2 to methanol. Such systems include enzyme membrane reactors, electrochemical cells, and photocatalytic reactor systems. Existing reactor setups are described, product yields and biocatalytic productivities are evaluated, and effective enzyme immobilization methods are discussed.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization is a well-known method for the improvement of enzyme reusability and stability. To achieve very high effectiveness of the enzyme immobilization, not only does the method of attachment need to be optimized, but the appropriate support must be chosen. The essential necessities addressed to the support applied for enzyme immobilization can be focused on the material features as well as on the stability and resistances in certain conditions. Ceramic membranes and nanoparticles are the most widespread supports for enzyme immobilization. Hence, the immobilization of enzymes on ceramic membrane and nanoparticles are summarized and discussed. The important properties of the supports are particle size, pore structure, active surface area, volume to surface ratio, type and number of reactive available groups, as well as thermal, mechanical, and chemical stability. The modifiers and the crosslinkers are crucial to the enzyme loading amount, the chemical and physical stability, and the reusability and catalytical activity of the immobilized enzymes. Therefore, the chemical and physical methods of modification of ceramic materials are presented. The most popular and used modifiers (e.g. APTES, CPTES, VTES) as well as activating agents (GA, gelatin, EDC and/or NHS) applied to the grafting process are discussed. Moreover, functional groups of enzymes are presented and discussed since they play important roles in the enzyme immobilization via covalent bonding. The enhanced physical, chemical, and catalytical properties of immobilized enzymes are discussed revealing the positive balance between the effectiveness of the immobilization process, preservation of high enzyme activity, its good stability, and relatively low cost.

Abstract
Enzymatic catalysis is one of the main pillars of sustainability for industrial production. Enzyme application allows minimization of the use of toxic solvents and to valorize the agro-industrial residues through reuse. In addition, they are safe and energy efficient. Nonetheless, their use in biotechnological processes is still hindered by the cost, stability, and low rate of recycling and reuse. Among the many industrial enzymes, fungal laccases (LCs) are perfect candidates to serve as a biotechnological tool as they are outstanding, versatile catalytic oxidants, only requiring molecular oxygen to function. LCs are able to degrade phenolic components of lignin, allowing them to efficiently reuse the lignocellulosic biomass for the production of enzymes, bioactive compounds, or clean energy, while minimizing the use of chemicals. Therefore, this review aims to give an overview of fungal LC, a promising green and sustainable enzyme, its mechanism of action, advantages, disadvantages, and solutions for its use as a tool to reduce the environmental and economic impact of industrial processes with a particular insight on the reuse of agro-wastes.

Abstract
An enzymatic membrane reactor (EMR) with immobilized dextranase provides an excellent opportunity for tailoring the molecular weight (Mw) of oligodextran to significantly improve product quality. However, a highly efficient EMR for oligodextran production is still lacking and the effect of enzyme immobilization strategy on dextranase hydrolysis behavior has not been studied yet. In this work, a functional layer of polydopamine (PDA) or nanoparticles made of tannic acid (TA) and hydrolysable 3-amino-propyltriethoxysilane (APTES) was first coated on commercial membranes. Then cross-linked dextranase or non-cross-linked dextranase was loaded onto the modified membranes using incubation mode or fouling-induced mode. The fouling-induced mode was a promising enzyme immobilization strategy on the membrane surface due to its higher enzyme loading and activity. Moreover, unlike the non-cross-linked dextranase that exhibited a normal endo-hydrolysis pattern, we surprisingly found that the cross-linked dextranase loaded on the PDA modified surface exerted an exo-hydrolysis pattern, possibly due to mass transfer limitations. Such alteration of hydrolysis pattern has rarely been reported before. Based on the hydrolysis behavior of the immobilized dextranase in different EMRs, we propose potential applications for the oligodextran products. This study presents a unique perspective on the relation between the enzyme immobilization process and the immobilized enzyme hydrolysis behavior, and thus opens up a variety of possibilities for the design of a high-performance EMR.

Abstract
l-asparaginase is an essential enzyme in medicine and a well-known chemotherapeutic agent. This enzyme's importance is not limited to its use as an anti-cancer agent; it also has a wide variety of medicinal applications. Antimicrobial properties, prevention of infectious disorders, autoimmune diseases, and canine and feline cancer are among the applications. Apart from the healthcare industry, its importance has been identified in the food industry as a food manufacturing agent to lower acrylamide levels. When isolated from their natural habitats, they are especially susceptible to different denaturing conditions due to their protein composition. The use of an immobilization technique is one of the most common approaches suggested to address these limitations. Immobilization is a technique that involves fixing enzymes to or inside stable supports, resulting in a heterogeneous immobilized enzyme framework. Strong support structures usually stabilize the enzymes' configuration, and their functions are maintained as a result. In recent years, there has been a lot of curiosity and focus on the ability of immobilized enzymes. The nanomaterials with ideal properties can be used to immobilize enzymes to regulate key factors that determine the efficacy of bio-catalysis. With applications in biotechnology, immunosensing, biomedicine, and nanotechnology sectors have opened a realm of opportunities for enzyme immobilization.
