Abstract
Diseases induced by bacterial and viral infections are common occurrences in our daily life, and the main prevention and treatment strategies are vaccination and taking antibacterial/antiviral drugs. However, vaccines can only be used for specific viral infections, and the abuse of antibacterial/antiviral drugs will create multi-drug-resistant bacteria and viruses. Therefore, it is necessary to develop more targeted prevention and treatment methods against bacteria and viruses. Proteins on the surface of bacteria and viruses can specifically bind to sugar, so glycopolymers can be used as potential antibacterial and antiviral drugs. In this review, the research of glycopolymers for bacterial/viral detection/inhibition and antibacterial/antiviral applications in recent years are summarized.

Appl Biochem Biotechnol 2022; 194:4999-5016. [PMID: 35687305 DOI: 10.1007/s12010-022-03991-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
The application of immobilized enzymes in pharmaceutical and bulk chemical production has been shown to be economically viable. We demonstrate the exceptional performance of a method that immobilizes the old yellow enzyme YqjM and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) on resin for the asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) of C = C bonds in a SpinChem reactor. When immobilized YqjM and GDH are reused 10 times, the conversion of 2-methylcyclopentenone could reach 78%. Which is because the rotor of the SpinChem reactor effectively reduces catalyst damage caused by shear force in the reaction system. When the substrate concentration is 175 mM, an 87% conversion of 2-methylcyclopentenone is obtained. The method is also observed to perform well for the AH of C = C bonds in other unsaturated carbonyl compounds with the SpinChem reactor. Thus, this method has great potential for application in the enzymatic production of chiral compounds.
