Abstract
Immobilized enzymes are one of the most common tools used in enzyme engineering, as they can substantially reduce the cost of enzyme isolation and use. However, efficient catalysis of solid substrates using immobilized enzymes is challenging, hydrolysis of insoluble cellulose by immobilized cellulases is a typical example of this problem. In this study, inspired by bees and honeycombs, we prepared gelatin-modified cellulase (BEE) and gelatin hydrogels (HONEYCOMB) to achieve reversible recycling versus release of cellulase through temperature-responsive changes in the triple-stranded helix-like interactions between BEE and HONEYCOMB. At elevated temperatures, BEE was released from HONEYCOMB and participated in hydrolytic saccharification. After 24 h, the glucose yields of both the free enzyme and BEE reached the same level. When the temperature was decreased, BEE recombined with HONEYCOMB to facilitate the effective separation and recycling of BEE from the system. The enzymatic system retained >70 % activity after four reuse cycles. In addition, this system showed good biocompatibility and environmental safety. This method increases the mass transfer capacity and enables easy recovery of immobilized cellulase, thereby serving as a valuable strategy for the immobilization of other enzymes.

Abstract
Due to stringent regulatory norms, waste processing faces confrontations and challenges in adapting technology for effective management through a convenient and economical system. At the global level, attempts are underway to achieve a green and sustainable treatment for the valorization of lignocellulosic biomass as well as organic contaminants in wastewater. Enzymatic treatment in the environmental aspect thrived on being the promising rapid strategy that appeased the aforementioned predicament. On that account, coimmobilization of various enzymes on single support enhances the catalytic activity ensuing operational stability with industrial applications. This review pivoted towards the coimmobilization of enzymes on diverse supports and their applications in biomass conversion to industrial value-added products and removal of contaminants in wastewater. The limelight of this study chronicles the unique breakthroughs in biotechnology for the production of reusable biocatalysts, which inculcating various enzymes towards the scope of environment application.

Co-immobilization of Cellulase and β-Glucosidase into Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for the Hydrolysis of Cellulose Extracted from Eriobotrya japonica Leaves.

Abstract
Fungal cellulases generally contain a reduced amount of β-glucosidase (BG), which does not allow for efficient cellulose hydrolysis. To address this issue, we implemented an easy co-immobilization procedure of β-glucosidase and cellulase by adsorption on wrinkled mesoporous silica nanoparticles with radial and hierarchical open pore structures, exhibiting smaller (WSN) and larger (WSN-p) inter-wrinkle distances. The immobilization was carried out separately on different vectors (WSN for BG and WSN-p for cellulase), simultaneously on the same vector (WSN-p), and sequentially on the same vector (WSN-p) in order to optimize the synergy between cellulase and BG. The obtained results pointed out that the best biocatalyst is that prepared through simultaneous immobilization of BG and cellulase on the same vector (WSN-p). In this case, the adsorption resulted in 20% yield of immobilization, corresponding to an enzyme loading of 100 mg/g of support. 82% yield of reaction and 72 μmol/min·g activity were obtained, evaluated for the hydrolysis of cellulose extracted from Eriobotrya japonica leaves. All reactions were carried out at a standard temperature of 50 °C. The biocatalyst retained 83% of the initial yield of reaction after 9 cycles of reuse. Moreover, it had better stability than the free enzyme mixture in a wide range of temperatures, preserving 72% of the initial yield of reaction up to 90 °C.
