Abstract
Non-classical secretory proteins are widely found in bacteria and have been extensively studied due to their important physiological roles. However, the relevant non-classical secretory mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we found that oxalate decarboxylase (Bacm OxDC) from Bacillus mojavensis XH1 belongs to non-classical secretory proteins. Its N-terminus showed high hydrophilicity, which was different from the conventional signal peptide. The truncation test revealed that the deletion of the N-terminus affects the structure resulting in its inability to cross the cell membrane. Further studies verified that the exported peptide YydF played an important role in the secretion process of Bacm OxDC. Experimental results on the secretion mechanism indicated that Bacm OxDC bound to the exported peptide YydF and they are translocated to the cell membrane together, after which Bacm OxDC caused cell membrane relaxation for transmembrane secretion. Thereafter, three recombinant proteins were successfully secreted with certain enzymatic activity by fusing Bacm OxDC as a guide protein with various target proteins. To the best of our knowledge, this was the first time that non-classical secretion mechanism in bacteria has been analyzed. The novel discovery may provide a reference and broaden the horizons of the secretion pathway and expression regulation of proteins.

Abstract
Fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal treatment of wild jujube and dl-tryptophan. The structure and properties of the CDs were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ultraviolet visible absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and so on. The as-prepared CDs exhibit excellent excitation-independent but pH-dependent (4.0-12.0) fluorescent features and emit blue strong fluorescence under 365 nm light. Hg2+ can decrease the fluorescence intensity of the CDs through static quenching, while the addition of oxalic acid (OA) recovers it owing to the coordination binding between oxalic acid and Hg2+. Based on this, the as-prepared CDs were used as a new "off-on" fluorescent probe for highly sensitive determination of oxalic acid with a wide linear detection range of 0.1-20 mg L-1 and a low detection limit of 0.057 mg L-1. Moreover, the fluorescent probe was successfully applied to detect oxalic acid in tomato and cherry tomato samples with satisfactory results.

A novel non-enzymatic sensor for prostate cancer biomarker sensing based on electrocatalytic oxidation of sarcosine at nanostructured NiMn 2O 4 impregnated carbon paste electrode. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1186:339121. [PMID: 34756269 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2021.339121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2021] [Revised: 09/18/2021] [Accepted: 09/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
This work addresses the electrocatalytic activity of a binary metal oxide catalyst of NiMn2O4 for electroxidation of sarcosine, the well-known prostate cancer biomarker. The nanocatalyst described was prepared via hydrothermal synthesis route, followed by calcination at 800 °C. Field emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were applied to obtain information about the material morphology and structure. A carbon paste electrode modified with nano-NiMn2O4 showed unique catalytic activity in sarcosine electroxidation which led to a significant rise in oxidation current (about four times) in comparison with the blank electrode. However, the carbon paste electrodes containing single oxides of NiO and Mn2O3 exhibited no considerable enhancement in sarcosine signal. The cyclic voltammetry results indicated that the Mn3+/Mn4+ couple was responsible for sarcosine oxidation, and NiO may enhance the content of Mn4+species in NiMn2O4 material. The carbon paste-based NiMn2O4 electrode was applied in the sensitive determination of sarcosine in the concentration range of 0.01-5.0 μM with the relative standard deviation of 3.49% (n = 5). The detection limit and quantification limit of the probe were determined to be 3.8 and 12 nM, respectively. The remarkable sensitivity and high selectivity of the method approved the sensor applicability in measurement of sarcosine content in urine samples.

Abstract
Oxalic acid (OA), naturally available in vegetables and foodstuffs derived from them, easily combines with calcium and iron to form insoluble oxalates. Their chelation will result in various renal diseases; thus, the accurate determination of OA is quite significant in the evaluation of food quality and healthcare settings. Here, we developed an electrochemically induced alcohol-free sol-gel method to obtain platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) adhered with porous silica on glassy carbon electrode (PSiO2-PtNPs/GCE) by a one-step process, which can be potentially used as an excellent catalyst towards electrochemical oxidation of OA for the first time. Without any redox mediator, PSiO2-PtNPs/GCE exhibited a low oxidation overpotential and a significantly high current signal, achieving a wide linear range of concentration from 0 to 45 μM and a detection limit as low as to 25 nM for OA detection. Moreover, this present alcohol-free sol-gel approach towards OA determination was verified in real samples, which is promising for foodstuff analysis and clinical diagnosis. Graphical abstract.
