Abstract
The catalytic efficiency of enzymes can be harnessed as an environmentally friendly solution for decontaminating various xenobiotics and toxins. However, for some xenobiotics, several enzymatic steps are needed to obtain nontoxic products. Another challenge is the low durability and stability of many native enzymes in their purified form. Herein, we coupled peptide-based encapsulation of bacterial phosphotriesterase with soil-originated bacteria, Arthrobacter sp. 4Hβ as an efficient system capable of biodegradation of paraoxon, a neurotoxin pesticide. Specifically, recombinantly expressed and purified methyl parathion hydrolase (MPH), with high hydrolytic activity toward paraoxon, was encapsulated within peptide nanofibrils, resulting in increased shelf life and retaining ∼50% activity after 132 days since purification. Next, the addition of Arthrobacter sp. 4Hβ, capable of degrading para-nitrophenol (PNP), the hydrolysis product of paraoxon, which is still toxic, resulted in nondetectable levels of PNP. These results present an efficient one-pot system that can be further developed as an environmentally friendly solution, coupling purified enzymes and native bacteria, for pesticide bioremediation. We further suggest that this system can be tailored for different xenobiotics by encapsulating the rate-limiting key enzymes followed by their combination with environmental bacteria that can use the enzymatic step products for full degradation without the need to engineer synthetic bacteria.

Abstract
Developing efficient technologies to eliminate or degrade contaminants is paramount for environmental protection. Biocatalytic decontamination offers distinct advantages in terms of selectivity and efficiency; however, it still remains challenging when applied in complex environmental matrices. The main challenge originates from the instability and difficult-to-separate attributes of fragile enzymes, which also results in issues of compromised activity, poor reusability, low cost-effectiveness, etc. One viable solution to harness biocatalysis in complex environments is known as enzyme immobilization, where a flexible enzyme is tightly fixed in a solid carrier. In the case where a reticular crystal is utilized as the support, it is feasible to engineer next-generation biohybrid catalysts functional in complicated environmental media. This can be interpreted by three aspects: (1) the highly crystalline skeleton can shield the immobilized enzyme against external stressors. (2) The porous network ensures the high accessibility of the interior enzyme for catalytic decontamination. And (3) the adjustable and unambiguous structure of the reticular framework favors in-depth understanding of the interfacial interaction between the framework and enzyme, which can in turn guide us in designing highly active biocomposites. This Review aims to introduce this emerging biocatalysis technology for environmental decontamination involving pollutant degradation and greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide) conversion, with emphasis on the enzyme immobilization protocols and diverse catalysis principles including single enzyme catalysis, catalysis involving enzyme cascades, and photoenzyme-coupled catalysis. Additionally, the remaining challenges and forward-looking directions in this field are discussed. We believe that this Review may offer a useful biocatalytic technology to contribute to environmental decontamination in a green and sustainable manner and will inspire more researchers at the intersection of the environment science, biochemistry, and materials science communities to co-solve environmental problems.

Evaluation of suitability and biodegradability of the organophosphate insecticides to mitigate insecticide pollution in onion farming. Heliyon 2024; 10:e32580. [PMID: 39005928 PMCID: PMC11239468 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Organophosphates constitute a major class of pesticides widely employed in agriculture to manage insect pests. Their toxicity is attributed to their ability to inhibit the functioning of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an essential enzyme for normal nerve transmission. Organophosphates, especially chlorpyrifos, have been a key component of the integrated pest management (IPM) in onions, effectively controlling onion maggot Delia antiqua, a severe pest of onions. However, the growing concerns over the use of this insecticide on human health and the environment compelled the need for an alternative organophosphate and a potential microbial agent for bioremediation to mitigate organophosphate pesticide pollution. In the present study, chloropyrifos along with five other organophosphate insecticides, phosmet, primiphos-methyl, isofenphos, iodofenphos and tribuphos, were screened against the target protein AChE of D. antiqua using molecular modeling and docking techniques. The results revealed that iodofenphos showed the best interaction, while tribuphos had the lowest interaction with the AChE based on comparative binding energy values. Further, protein-protein interaction analysis conducted using the STRING database and Cytoscap software revealed that AChE is linked with a network of 10 different proteins, suggesting that the function of AChE is disrupted through interaction with insecticides, potentially leading to disruption within the network of associated proteins. Additionally, an in silico study was conducted to predict the binding efficiency of two organophosphate degrading enzymes, organophosphohydrolase (OpdA) from Agrobacterium radiobacter and Trichoderma harzianum paraoxonase 1 like (ThPON1-like) protein from Trichoderma harzianum, with the selected insecticides. The analysis revealed their potential to degrade the pesticides, offering a promising alternative before going for cumbersome onsite remediation.

Abstract
The gut microbial metalloenzymes play an important role in maintaining the balance between gut microbial ecosystem, human physiologically processes and immune system. The metals coordinated into active site contribute in various detoxification and defense strategies to avoid unfavourable environment and ensure bacterial survival in human gut. Metallo-β-lactamase is a potent degrader of antibiotics present in periplasmic space of both commensals and pathogenic bacteria. The resistance to anti-microbial agents developed in this enzyme is one of the global threats for human health. The organophosphorus eliminator, organophosphorus hydrolases have evolved over a course of time to hydrolyze toxic organophosphorus compounds and decrease its effect on human health. Further, the redox stress responders namely superoxide dismutase and catalase are key metalloenzymes in reducing both endogenous and exogenous oxidative stress. They hold a great importance for pathogens as they contribute in pathogenesis in human gut along with reduction of oxidative stress. The in-silico study on these enzymes reveals the importance of point mutation for the evolution of these enzymes in order to enhance their enzyme activity and stability. Various mutation studies were conducted to investigate the catalytic activity of these enzymes. By using the "directed evolution" method, the enzymes involved in detoxification and defense system can be engineered to produce new variants with enhance catalytic features, which may be used to predict the severity due to multi-drug resistance and degradation pattern of organophosphorus compounds in human gut.

Abstract
Malathion, an extensively used organophosphorus pesticide, poses a high potential risk of toxicity to humans and the environment. Shewanella (S.) oneidensis MR-1 has been proposed as a strain with excellent bioremediation capabilities, capable of efficiently removing a wide range of hard-to-degrade pollutants. However, the physiological and biochemical response of S. oneidensis MR-1 to malathion is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to examine how S. oneidensis MR-1 responds physiologically and biochemically to malathion while also investigating the biodegradation properties of the pesticide. The results showed that the 7-day degradation rates of S. oneidensis MR-1 were 84.1, 91.6, and 94.0% at malathion concentrations of 10, 20, and 30 mg/L, respectively. As the concentration of malathion increased, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities were inhibited, leading to a significant rise in malondialdehyde content. This outcome can be attributed to the excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) triggered by malathion stress. In addition, ROS production stimulates the secretion of soluble polysaccharides, which alleviates oxidative stress caused by malathion. Malathion-induced oxidative damage further exacerbated the changes in the cellular properties of S. oneidensis MR-1. During the initial stages of degradation, the cell density and total intracellular protein increased significantly with increasing malathion exposure. This can be attributed to the remarkable resistance of S. oneidensis MR-1 to malathion. Based on scanning electron microscopy observations, continuous exposure to contaminants led to a reduction in biomass and protein content, resulting in reduced cell activity and ultimately leading to cell rupture. In addition, this was accompanied by a decrease in Na+/K+- ATPase and Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase levels, suggesting that malathion-mediated oxidative stress interfered with energy metabolism in S. oneidensis MR-1. The findings of this study provide new insights into the environmental risks associated with organophosphorus pesticides, specifically malathion, and their potential for bioremediation.

Abstract
One Health closely integrates healthy farming, human medicine, and environmental ecology. Due to the ecotoxicity and risk of transmission of drug resistance, veterinary medicines (VMs) are regarded as emerging environmental pollutants. To reduce or mitigate the environmental risk of VMs, developing friendly, safe, and effective removal technologies is an important means of environmental remediation for VMs. Many previous studies have proved that biodegradation has significant advantages in removing VMs, and biodegradation based on enzyme catalysis presents higher operability and specificity. This review focused on biodegradation strategies of environmental pollutants and reviewed the enzymatic degradation of VMs including antimicrobial drugs, insecticides, and disinfectants. We reviewed the sources and catalytic mechanisms of peroxidase, laccase, and organophosphorus hydrolases, and summarized the latest research status of immobilization methods and bioengineering techniques in improving the performance of degrading enzymes. The mechanism of enzymatic degradation for VMs was elucidated in the current research. Suggestions and prospects for researching and developing enzymatic degradation of VMs were also put forward. This review will offer new ideas for the biodegradation of VMs and have a guide significance for the risk mitigation and detoxification of VMs in the environment.

Abstract
Organophosphorus insecticides (OPs), acting as serine phosphorylating agents in acetylcholinesterase (AChE), are highly effective neurotoxic insecticides. In our previous research, we found that six herbivorous pests and four ladybirds howed significantly higher AChE LC50 values than seven parasitoids and a predator (Epistrophe balteate), and that there was a significant correlation with the corresponding bimolecular rate constant (Ki) value. The Ki value of pests was much smaller than that of natural enemies and had a higher LC50 value.Then, we speculated that the low sensitivity of the pest AChE to OPs may be associated with its higher recovery and lower aging ability. In this work, the I50 and I90 were calculated, to determine the sensibility of AChE in ten representative species, including Plutella xylostella, Prodenia litura, Musca domestica, and Cavia porcellus, to paraoxon and malaoxon. The enzyme activities were measured at various time points, and kinetic calculations were used to obtain their spontaneous reactivation (Ks) and aging (Ka) constants, which were comprehensively compared. We conclude that the Ka and Ks of the AChE inhibited by OPs showed primarily species-specific correlations, and little correlation with the sensitivity to OPs. The differences in the AChE sensitivity to paraoxon among the ten species were much greater than in the sensitivity to malaoxon. Compared to paraoxon, malaoxon was more selective for Cavia porcellus. Coleoptera insects showed a stronger dephosphorylation ability than other insect groups. The recovery ability of phospho-AChE was stronger in mammals than in insects, which could be related to the low sensitivity of the AChE site of action to OPs. The Ka of the AChE inhibited by malaoxon was larger than that inhibited by paraoxon with the corresponding biomaterials, indicating that the OP type had a substantial relationship with the Ka of the AChE. We further discovered that, when insects were inhibited by OP, the tendency of AChE to undergo aging was greater than that of dephosphorylation. Overall, the study provides valuable information on the action mechanism of various OPs on AChE in several species, which could be used to further research into AChE and the potential dangers that organophosphates pose to animals.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing threat to public health, global food security and animal welfare. Despite efforts in antibiotic stewardship, AMR continues to rise worldwide. Anthropogenic activities, particularly intensive agriculture, play an integral role in the dissemination of AMR genes within natural microbial communities - which current antibiotic stewardship typically overlooks. In this review, we examine the impact of anthropogenically induced temperature fluctuations, increased soil salinity, soil fertility loss, and contaminants such as metals and pesticides on the de novo evolution and dissemination of AMR in the environment. These stressors can select for AMR - even in the absence of antibiotics - via mechanisms such as cross-resistance, co-resistance and co-regulation. Moreover, anthropogenic stressors can prime bacterial physiology against stress, potentially widening the window of opportunity for the de novo evolution of AMR. However, research to date is typically limited to the study of single isolated bacterial species - we lack data on how intensive agricultural practices drive AMR over evolutionary timescales in more complex microbial communities. Furthermore, a multidisciplinary approach to fighting AMR is urgently needed, as it is clear that the drivers of AMR extend far beyond the clinical environment.

Abstract
Industrial processes result in the production of heavy metals, dyes, pesticides, polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), pharmaceuticals, micropollutants, and PFAS (per- and polyfluorinated substances). Heavy metals are currently a significant problem in drinking water and other natural water bodies, including soil, which has an adverse impact on the environment as a whole. The heavy metal is highly poisonous, carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic to humans as well as other animals. Multiple polluted sites, including terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, have been observed to co-occur with heavy metals and organo-pollutants. Pesticides and heavy metals can be degraded and removed concurrently from various metals and pesticide-contaminated matrixes due to microbial processes that include a variety of bacteria, both aerobic and anaerobic, as well as fungi. Numerous studies have examined the removal of heavy metals and organic-pollutants from different types of systems, but none of them have addressed the removal of these co-occurring heavy metals and organic pollutants and the use of microbes to do so. Therefore, the main focus of this review is on the recent developments in the concurrent microbial degradation of organo-pollutants and heavy metal removal. The limitations related to the simultaneous removal and degradation of heavy metals and organo-pollutant pollutants have also been taken into account.

Abstract
Organophosphorus compounds (OPs) have been widely used in agriculture for decades because of their high insecticidal efficiency, which maintains and increases crop yields worldwide. More importantly, OPs, as typical chemical warfare agents, are a serious concern and significant danger for military and civilian personnel. The widespread use of OPs, superfluous and unreasonable use, has caused great harm to the environment and food chain. Developing efficient and environmentally friendly solutions for the decontamination of OPs is a long-term challenge. Microbial enzymes show potential application as natural and green biocatalysts. Thus, utilizing OP-degrading enzymes for environmental decontamination presents significant advantages, as these enzymes can rapidly hydrolyze OPs; are environmentally friendly, nonflammable, and noncorrosive; and can be discarded safely and easily. Here, the properties, structure and catalytic mechanism of various typical OP-degrading enzymes are reviewed. The methods and effects utilized to improve the expression level, catalytic performance and stability of OP-degrading enzymes were systematically summarized. In addition, the immobilization of OP-degrading enzymes was explicated emphatically, and the latest progress of cascade reactions based on immobilized enzymes was discussed. Finally, the latest applications of OP-degrading enzymes were summarized, including biosensors, nanozyme mimics and medical detoxification. This review provides guidance for the future development of OP-degrading enzymes and promotes their application in the field of environmental bioremediation and medicine.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 314:137673. [PMID: 36584821 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.137673] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Revised: 12/12/2022] [Accepted: 12/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Multi-pesticides pollution induced by organophosphorus insecticides (OPs) and aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicides (AOPPs) has become a significant challenge in bioremediation of water pollution due to their prolonged and over application. Though a number of physical, chemical, and biological approaches have been developed for different pesticides, the explorations usually focus on eliminating single pesticide pollution. Herein, a heterostructure nanocomposite OPH/QpeH@mZIF-8, encapsulating OPs hydrolase OPH and AOPPs hydrolase QpeH in the magnetic zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-8 (mZIF-8), was synthesized through a facile one-pot method in aqueous solution. The immobilized OPH and QpeH in mZIF-8 showed high activities towards the two most common OPs and AOPPs, i.e., chlorpyrifos and quizalofop-P-ethyl, which were hydrolyzed to 3,5,6-Trichloro-2-pyridino (TCP) and quizalofop acid, respectively. Moreover, the magnetic nanocatalyst possessed great tolerance towards broad pH range, high temperatures, and different chemical solvents and excellent recyclability. More importantly, compared to free OPH and QpeH, OPH/QpeH@mZIF-8, with significantly enhanced degradation capability, exhibited enormous potential for simultaneous removal of chlorpyrifos and quizalofop-p-ethyl from the surface and industrial wastewater. Overall, the study demonstrates the applicability of this strategy for utilizing magnetic nanocatalysts encapsulating multiple enzymes due to its simplicity, high efficiency, and economic benefits to removing pesticide compound pollution from various water resources.

Abstract
Organophosphorus hydrolase, containing a genetically introduced hexahistidine sequence (His6-OPH), attracts the attention of researchers by its promiscuous activity in hydrolytic reactions with various substrates, such as organophosphorus pesticides and chemical warfare agents, mycotoxins, and N-acyl homoserine lactones. The application of various carrier materials (metal-organic frameworks, polypeptides, bacterial cellulose, polyhydroxybutyrate, succinylated gelatin, etc.) for the immobilization and stabilization of His6-OPH by various methods, enables creation of biocatalysts with various properties and potential uses, in particular, as antidotes, recognition elements of biosensors, in fibers with chemical and biological protection, dressings with antimicrobial properties, highly porous sorbents for the degradation of toxicants, including in flow systems, etc. The use of computer modeling methods in the development of immobilized His6-OPH samples provides in silico prediction of emerging interactions between the enzyme and immobilizing polymer, which may have negative effects on the catalytic properties of the enzyme, and selection of the best options for experiments in vitro and in vivo. This review is aimed at analysis of known developments with immobilized His6-OPH, which allows to recognize existing recent trends in this field of research, as well as to identify the reasons limiting the use of a number of polymer molecules for the immobilization of this enzyme.

Abstract
Widespread use of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs), especially superfluous and unreasonable use, had brought huge harm to the environment and food chain. It is because only a small part of the pesticides sprayed reached the target, and the rest slid across the soil, causing pollution of groundwater and surface water resources. These pesticides accumulate in the environment, causing environmental pollution. Therefore, in recent years, the control and degradation of OPs have become a public spotlight and research hotspot. Due to its unique advantages such as versatility, environmental compatibility, controllability, and cost-effectiveness compatibility, electrochemical technology has become one of the most promising methods for degradation of OPs. The fundamental knowledge about electrochemical degradation on OPs was introduced in this review. Then, a comprehensive overview of four main types of practical electrochemical technologies to degrade pesticides were presented and evaluated. The knowledge contained herein should conduce to better understand the degradation of pesticides by electrochemical technology, and better exploit the degradation of pesticides in the environment and food. Overall, the objective of this review is to provide comprehensive guidance for rational design and application of electrochemical technology in the degradation of OPs for the safety of the environment and food chain in the future.
