Abstract
Pearl and nacre powders have been valuable traditional Chinese medicines with whitening properties for thousands of years. We utilized a high-temperature and high-pressure method along with compound enzyme digestion to prepare the enzymatic hydrolysates of nacre powder of Pinctada martensii (NP-PMH). The peptides were identified using LC-MS/MS and screened through molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. The interactions between peptides and tyrosinase were elucidated through enzyme kinetics, circular dichroism spectropolarimetry, and isothermal titration calorimetry. Additionally, their inhibitory effects on B16F10 cells were explored. The results showed that a tyrosinase-inhibitory peptide (Ala-His-Tyr-Tyr-Asp, AHYYD) was identified, which inhibited tyrosinase with an IC50 value of 2.012 ± 0.088 mM. The results of the in vitro interactions showed that AHYYD exhibited a mixed-type inhibition of tyrosinase and also led to a more compact enzyme structure. The binding reactions of AHYYD with tyrosinase were spontaneous, leading to the formation of a new set of binding sites on the tyrosinase. The B16F10 cell-whitening assay revealed that AHYYD could reduce the melanin content of the cells by directly inhibiting the activity of intracellular tyrosinase. Additionally, it indirectly affects melanin production by acting as an antioxidant. These results suggest that AHYYD could be widely used as a tyrosinase inhibitor in whitening foods and pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Cyanidin, peonidin and cyanidin-3-galactoside are the common anthocyanins with a variety of biological activities. Tyrosinase is a speed-limiting enzyme associated with melanin production. The inhibition of tyrosinase activity can prevent melanin disease while contributing to whitening. The interaction behaviors of the three anthocyanins against tyrosinase have been discussed in this paper. Cyanidin has strongest inhibitory effect on tyrosinase, and then peonidin, cyanidin-3-galactoside. Furthermore, the inhibition of tyrosinase by the three anthocyanins is mixed modes. The three anthocyanins can induce the static fluorescence quenching of tyrosinase. Cyanidin exhibits strongest binding affinity on tyrosinase, and then peonidin, cyanidin-3-galactoside based on Ka values obtain by fluorescence analysis. The binding of all anthocyanin to tyrosinase induce its conformation changes. According to molecular docking and fluorescence studies, they bind to tyrosinase by hydrogen bond and van der Waals force. In addition, the optimal modes of the three anthocyanins with tyrosinase are predicated by molecular docking. This work emphasizes that cyanidin, peonidin and cyanidin-3-galactoside may be potential drugs for the treatment of diseases caused by melanin.

Abstract
Thirteen kojic acid-coumarin derivatives were synthesized using the principle of molecular hybridization, and their structures were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. In vitro enzyme inhibition experiments showed that all newly synthesized derivatives have excellent inhibition of tyrosinase (TYR) activity. As a mixed inhibitor, compound 6f has the strongest activity, with an IC50 value of 0.88 ± 0.10 µM. Multispectral experiments have confirmed that the mode of action of compound 6f on TYR was static quenching. In addition, compound 6f formed a new complex with TYR, which increased the hydrophobicity of the enzyme microenvironment, reduced the content of the α-helix in the enzyme, and changed the secondary structure. The experimental results showed that compound 6f effectively inhibited the browning of lotus root slices and had low cytotoxicity. Therefore, compound 6f is believed to have great development potential as a TYR inhibitor in the food industry.

Abstract
Some ingredients from herbal medicine can significantly affect the activity of CYP2D6, thus leading to serious interactions between herbs and drugs. Quercetin and hyperoside are active ingredients widely found in vegetables, fruits, and herbal medicines. Quercetin and hyperoside have many biological activities. In this work, the characteristic bindings of CYP2D6 with quercetin/hyperoside are revealed by multi-spectroscopy analysis, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations. The fluorescence of CYP2D6 is statically quenched by quercetin and hyperoside. The binding constant (Ka ) values of CYP2D6-quercetin/hyperoside range from 104 L mol-1 , which indicates that these two flavonoids bind moderately to CYP2D6. Meanwhile, quercetin has a stronger quenching ability to CYP2D6 than that of hyperoside. The secondary structure of CYP2D6 is obviously changed by binding with quercetin/hyperoside. The docking results reveal that the quercetin/hyperoside enters the active site of CYP2D6 near heme and binds to CYP2D6 by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. The molecular dynamics simulation results indicate that the binding of quercetin/hyperoside can stabilize the two complexes, enhance the flexibility of CYP2D6 backbone atoms, and make a more unfolded and looser structure of CYP2D6.

Abstract
Interactions between a zwitterionic phospholipid, 1, 2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and four anionic phospholipids dihexadecyl phosphate (DHP), 1, 2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol (DMPG), 1, 2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate (DPP) and 1, 2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho ethanol (DPPEth) in combination with an additional amount of 30 mol% cholesterol were separately investigated at air-buffer interface through surface pressure (π) - area (A) measurements. π-A isotherm derived parameters revealed maximum negative deviation from ideality for the mixtures comprising 30 mol% anionic lipids. Besides the film functionality, structural changes of the monomolecular films at different surface pressures in the absence and presence of polyamidoamine (PAMAM, generation 4), a cationic dendrimer, were visualised through Brewster angle microscopy and fluorescence microscopic studies. Fluidity/rigidity of monolayers were assessed by surface dilatational rheology studies. Effect of PAMAM on the formation of adsorbed monolayer, due to bilayer disintegration of liposomes (DPPC:anionic lipids= 7:3 M/M, and 30 mol% cholesterol) were monitored by surface pressure (π) - time (t) isotherms. Bilayer disintegration kinetics were dependent on lipid head group and chain length, besides dendrimer concentration. Such studies are considered to be an in vitro cell membrane model where the alteration of molecular orientation play important roles in understanding the nature of interaction between the dendrimer and cell membrane. Liposome-dendrimer aggregates were nontoxic to breast cancer cell line as well as in doxorubicin treated MDA-MB-468 cell line suggesting their potential as drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Over time, the interest in developing stable photosensitizers (PS) which both absorb and emit light in the red region (650 and 950 nm) has gained noticeable interest. Recently, carbon dots (CDs) have become the material of focus to act as a PS due to their high extinction coefficient, low cytotoxicity, and both high photo and thermal stability. In this work, a Federal and Drug Association (FDA) approved Near Infra-Red (NIR) organic fluorophore used for photo-imaging, indocyanine green (ICG), has been explored as a precursor to develop water-soluble red emissive CDs which possess red emission at 697 nm. Furthermore, our material was found to yield favorable red-imaging capabilities of glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) meanwhile boasting low toxicity. Additionally with post modifications, our CDs have been found to have selectivity towards tumors over healthy tissue as well as crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in zebrafish models.

Abstract
One of the challenges for producing active chitinase formulations relies on the gap between the laboratory tests and the biological scenarios where the enzyme will perform its function. In this work, we have employed different Langmuir monolayer arrays to evaluate the interfacial behavior of a recently purified recombinant chitinase, Chi18-5. We have demonstrated that two conformations exist for the chitinase at pH values close to its pI, showing very distinct structural properties at the air/aqueous interface. Enzyme activity was assessed by implementing different kinetic approaches and using a chitosan-1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) mixed film as organized substrate model membrane. Combining these strategies, we demonstrated that better catalytic efficiencies can be obtained for Chi18-5 at pH 5. Moreover, the chitinase activity at the air/aqueous interface can be tuned by introducing in situ pH modifications over the surrounding milieu. We also studied the changes in the topography at the mesoscale level using Brewster Angle Microscopy (BAM). We found that Chi18-5 segregated onto the chitosan domains of the membrane, showing differences in homogeneity depending on the pH imposed. Alternatively, pure Chi18-5 was tested for immobilization onto a hydrophilic activated solid support using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) analyses showed successfully stabilization and preservation of molecular features attributed to the pH at which the enzyme deposition was performed.

Abstract
Diazepam has been detected in water sources around the world affecting the quality of drinking water. Even in small quantities, recent studies have proven the negative effects of the drug on human body. Since traditional water and sewage treatment do not remove this type of contaminant, it became interesting to evaluate forms to remove them from water sources. A cheap and eco-friendly alternative to remove this drug from the water is through adsorption using the natural clinoptilolite zeolite as an adsorbent. This work goal was to study the characterizations of clinoptilolite, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and analyze the potential of this material as an adsorbent. Kinetic studies and isotherm analysis were performed in batch. The results showed the potential of the natural zeolite to remove the pollutant in an aqueous medium reaching a maximum adsorption capacity of 8.25 mg g-1. The adsorption process followed a pseudo-second-order kinetics indicating that the adsorption was based on a chemisorption process. The isotherms curves shown favorable adsorption and the Langmuir isotherm model fit the experimental data better.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems using nanoparticles are currently in the panorama of nanomedicine studies. In oncology, chemotherapeutic regimens using anthracycline antibiotics rely on the dosage of treatments to minimize the severity of side effects on the patient. Therefore, even in targeted delivery systems it is of great importance to quantify the level of drug administrated for dosage and quality control of the treatment. Herein, as a feasible pathway to shed light on improving nano drug quantification procedures, we proposed a simple analytical protocol to quantify the anthracyclines loaded on our nonchiral carbon nitride dots (CNDs) with circular dichroism spectrometry (CD). The calibration curves from the linear relation between ellipticity and concentration of the anthracycline drugs followed by measurements on the CNDs conjugates were used in achieving the quantification technique which showed different drug loading for each anthracycline used such as daunorubicin, doxorubicin, and epirubicin.

Abstract
Lipase A from Candida antarctica (CalA) and β-glucosidase from Thermotoga maritima (bgl) were covalently co-immobilized onto the surface of chitosan-coated magnetic nanoparticles (CS-MNPs). Several parameters regarding the co-immobilization procedure (glutaraldehyde concentration, incubation time, CS-MNPs to enzyme mass ratio and bgl to CalA mass ratio) were evaluated and optimized. The developed nanobiocatalyst was characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. Biochemical parameters such as kinetic constants and thermal stability were also evaluated. The nanobiocatalytic system revealed an increase in the Km constant followed by a decrease in Vmax value compared with the native enzymes, while a significant increase (>5-fold higher) of the thermal stability of the immobilized CalA, both in individual and in co-immobilized form, was observed after 24 h incubation at 60 °C. Finally, the nanobiocatalyst was efficiently applied for the bioconversion of oleuropein to hydroxytyrosol, one of the most powerful naturally derived antioxidants, and it could be recycled for up to 10 reaction cycles (240 h of constant operation) at 60 °C, retaining more than 50% of its initial activity.

Abstract
The inhibitory effects of delphinidin-3-O-galactoside (DG) on the activities of tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1) (TY) from the edible Agaricus bisporus mushroom were investigated by enzyme kinetics, multispectroscopic methods, and molecular docking. As a result, DG showed strong inhibition on TY with the IC50 of 34.14 × 10-6 mol L-1 . The inhibition mode of DG against TY was mixed type with α values of 5.09. The binding constant Ka and related thermodynamic parameters at the three different temperatures showed that the fluorescence quenching of TY by DG was static quenching. Synchronous fluorescence, three-dimensional fluorescence, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and circular dichroism spectroscopies confirmed that the conformation or microenvironment of the TY protein were changed after binding with DG. Molecular docking revealed that DG had strong binding affinity to TY through hydrogen bonding and van der Waals force, and the results were consistent with the fluorescence data. Our findings suggested that DG may be potential TY inhibitor.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The catalytic activity of enzymes immobilized in self-assembly systems as Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films is influenced by molecular interactions dictated by the composition and viscoelasticity of the previous floating monolayers. We believe that the insertion of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in mixed polygalacturonase/lipid monolayers may influence intermolecular interactions and viscoelastic properties, being then possible to tune system stability and rheological properties, driving catalytic properties of the films for biosensing. EXPERIMENTS The physicochemical properties of the monolayers were investigated by tensiometry, surface potential, Brewster angle microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and dilatational rheology. The monolayers were transferred to solid supports LB films and characterized by atomic force microscopy, quartz crystal microbalance, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The catalytic activity of the LB films was verified by colorimetric assay. FINDINGS The enzyme-CNT-lipid film had a catalytic activity at least twice as high as the pure enzyme owing to the synergy between the components, with the lipid acting as a protector matrix for the enzyme and the CNTs acting as an energy transfer facilitator. These results point to a proof-of-concept system, through which we can propose an alternative to achieve enhanced bio-inspired films with high control of the molecular architecture by using the LB approach.

Abstract
This article investigates the main aspects of the surface chemistry properties of the lactate oxidase (LacOx) enzyme monolayer at the air-subphase interface. Surface chemistry study determined the important properties like the surface packing and stability of the formed layer, whereas the spectroscopic experiments provided information regarding its secondary structure conformation of the enzyme. We have demonstrated that the LacOx in the monolayer form remained active for extended time period. In accordance to the data obtained from the isotherm it was also found that LacOx forms a stable monolayer that does not aggregate at the air-subphase interface. The stability of the monolayer at the air-subphase interface was studied by using compression-decompression cycles which revealed the stability with no significant evidence of aggregates or irreversible domains. This was further confirmed by UV-vis absorption and fluorescence measurements. Spectra from circular dichroism (CD) showed that the LB film retains the characteristic of an α-helix conformation.

Biosensors Platform Based on Chitosan/AuNPs/Phthalocyanine Composite Films for the Electrochemical Detection of Catechol. The Role of the Surface Structure.

Abstract
Biosensor platforms consisting of layer by layer films combining materials with different functionalities have been developed and used to obtain improved catechol biosensors. Tyrosinase (Tyr) or laccase (Lac) were deposited onto LbL films formed by layers of a cationic linker (chitosan, CHI) alternating with layers of anionic electrocatalytic materials (sulfonated copper phthalocyanine, CuPcS or gold nanoparticles, AuNP). Films with different layer structures were successfully formed. Characterization of surface roughness and porosity was carried out using AFM. Electrochemical responses towards catechol showed that the LbL composites efficiently improved the electron transfer path between Tyr or Lac and the electrode surface, producing an increase in the intensity over the response in the absence of the LbL platform. LbL structures with higher roughness and pore size facilitated the diffusion of catechol, resulting in lower LODs. The [(CHI)-(AuNP)-(CHI)-(CuPcS)]2-Tyr showed an LOD of 8.55∙10-4 μM, which was one order of magnitude lower than the 9.55·10-3 µM obtained with [(CHI)-(CuPcS)-(CHI)-(AuNP)]2-Tyr, and two orders of magnitude lower than the obtained with other nanostructured platforms. It can be concluded that the combination of adequate materials with complementary activity and the control of the structure of the platform is an excellent strategy to obtain biosensors with improved performances.
