Harnessing the power of bacterial laccases for xenobiotic degradation in water: A 10-year overview. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 918:170498. [PMID: 38307266 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/04/2024]
Abstract
Industrialization and population growth are leading to the production of significant amounts of sewage containing hazardous xenobiotic compounds. These compounds pose a threat to human and animal health, as well as the overall ecosystem. To combat this issue, chemical, physical, and biological techniques have been used to remove these contaminants from water bodies affected by human activity. Biotechnological methods have proven effective in utilizing microorganisms and enzymes, particularly laccases, to address this problem. Laccases possess versatile enzymatic characteristics and have shown promise in degrading different xenobiotic compounds found in municipal, industrial, and medical wastewater. Both free enzymes and crude enzyme extracts have demonstrated success in the biotransformation of these compounds. Despite these advancements, the widespread use of laccases for bioremediation and wastewater treatment faces challenges due to the complex composition, high salt concentration, and extreme pH often present in contaminated media. These factors negatively impact protein stability, recovery, and recycling processes, hindering their large-scale application. These issues can be addressed by focusing on large-scale production, resolving operation problems, and utilizing cutting-edge genetic and protein engineering techniques. Additionally, finding novel sources of laccases, understanding their biochemical properties, enhancing their catalytic activity and thermostability, and improving their production processes are crucial steps towards overcoming these limitations. By doing so, enzyme-based biological degradation processes can be improved, resulting in more efficient removal of xenobiotics from water systems. This review summarizes the latest research on bacterial laccases over the past decade. It covers the advancements in identifying their structures, characterizing their biochemical properties, exploring their modes of action, and discovering their potential applications in the biotransformation and bioremediation of xenobiotic pollutants commonly present in water sources.

Abstract
Despite being one of the first enzymes discovered in 1883, the determination of laccase activity remains a scientific challenge, and a barrier to the full use of laccase as a biocatalyst. Indeed, laccase, an oxidase of the blue multi-copper oxidases family, has a wide range of substrates including substituted phenols, aromatic amines and lignin-related compounds. Its one-electron mechanism requires only oxygen and releases water as a reaction product. These characteristics make laccase a biocatalyst of interest in many fields of applications including pulp and paper industry, biorefineries, food, textile, and pharmaceutical industries. But to fully envisage the use of laccase at an industrial scale, its activity must be reliably quantifiable on complex substrates and in complex matrices. This review aims to describe current and emerging methods for laccase activity assays and place them in the context of a potential industrial use of the enzyme.

Improved application of immobilized Enterobacter cloacae into a bio-based polymer for Reactive Blue 19 removal, an eco-friendly advancement in potential decolorizing systems. WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH : A RESEARCH PUBLICATION OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT FEDERATION 2024; 96:e10968. [PMID: 38217325 DOI: 10.1002/wer.10968] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2024]
Abstract
The widespread use of highly complex synthetic dyes like reactive dyes in the textile industry has some adverse environmental impacts and deserves close attention. Biological treatment of these effluents utilizing various species of bacteria with remarkable efficiency in dye removal is still considered promising. Our current study deals with immobilizing an isolated bacterial strain into calcium alginate (Ca/Alg) gel beads and using it to treat pernicious pollutants like synthetic dyes. A potential Reactive Blue 19 (RB19)-degrading Enterobacter cloacae strain A1 was isolated from the Kashan textile industry and was characterized by 16S rDNA gene sequencing. The decolorization ability of strain A1 was assessed by time-based studies using free bacterial cells/immobilized in Ca/Alg. Based on the results of the 16S rDNA gene sequencing, it appears that strain A1 belonged to E. cloacae, with a 99.74% similarity. The findings suggest that immobilized strain A1 accomplished maximum decolorization activity compared with the free cells. The immobilized strain could utterly decompose and decolorize 0.05 mg/mL of RB19 within 48 h, while the free bacterial strain decolorized RB19 within 5 days. Moreover, Ca/Alg gel beads can maintain their efficiency for over three decolorization cycles. Further infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and gas chromatograph mass spectrometer (GC/MS) investigation declared complete RB19 decomposition on reaction products. Artemia salina was used to investigate the toxicity of dye and its degraded metabolites. The LC50 values signified the pure dye as very toxic with 0.01 mg/mL concentration, while after-treatment products showed no toxic effect on larvae. This immobilization technique increased the applicability of bacterial strain for dye removal. It was beneficial for the decolorization of RB19 from textile wastewater due to a remarkable reduction in time. Notably, strain A1-immobilized beads can maintain their activity for three consecutive decolorization cycles without a considerable decrease in efficiency. PRACTITIONER POINTS: The remarkable capacity of immobilized Enterobacter cloacae strain A1 for Reactive Blue 19 (RB19) removal Immobilized A1 strain showed two-fold higher removal than free one over 48 h A promising method for enhancing RB19 decolorization Decolorization was due to degradation based on UV-Vis, FTIR, and GC/MS analysis Non-toxic posttreatment products for Artemia.

Abstract
Color chemicals contaminate pure water constantly discharged from different points and non-point sources. Physical and chemical techniques have certain limitations and complexities for bioenergy production, which motivated the search for a novel sustainable production approaches during dye wastewater treatment. The emerging environmental problem of dye decolorization has attracted scientist's attention to a new, cheap, and economical way to treat dye wastewater and power production via fungal fuel cells. Ganoderma gibbosum was fitted in the cathodic region with laccase secretion in the fuel cell. At the same time, dye water was placed in the anodic region to move electrons and produce power. This study treated wastewater using the oxidoreductase enzymes released extracellularly from Ganoderma gibbosum for dye Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) degradation via fungal-based fuel cell. The maximum power density of 14.18 mW/m2 and the maximum current density of 35 mA/m2 were shown by the concentration of 5 ppm during maximum laccase activity and decolorization of RBBR. The laccase catalysts have gained considerable attention because of eco-friendly and alternative easy handling approaches to chemical methods. Fungal Fuel Cells (FFCs) are efficiently used in dye treatment and electricity production. This article also highlighted the construction of fungal catalytic cells and the enzymatic performance of fungal species in energy production during dye water treatment.

Abstract
Plastic pollution is one of the most environmental problems in the last two centuries, because of their excessive usage and their rapidly increasing production, which overcome the ability of natural degradation. Moreover, this problem become an escalating environmental issue caused by inadequate disposal, ineffective or nonexistent waste collection methods, and a lack of appropriate measures to deal with the problem, such as incineration and landfilling. Consequently, plastic wastes have become so ubiquitous and have accumulated in the environment impacting ecosystems and wildlife. The above, enhances the urgent need to explore alternative approaches that can effectively reduce waste without causing harsh environmental consequences. For example, white-rot fungi are a promising alternative to deal with the problem. These fungi produce ligninolytic enzymes able to break down the molecular structures of plastics, making them more bioavailable and allowing their degradation process, thereby mitigating waste accumulation. Over the years, several research studies have focused on the utilization of white-rot fungi to degrade plastics. This review presents a summary of plastic degradation biochemistry by white-rot fungi and the function of their ligninolytic enzymes. It also includes a collection of different research studies involving white-rot fungi to degrade plastic, their enzymes, the techniques used and the obtained results. Also, this highlights the significance of pre-treatments and the study of plastic blends with natural fibers or metallic ions, which have shown higher levels of degradation. Finally, it raises the limitations of the biotechnological processes and the prospects for future studies.

Abstract
In this work, it is presented a first approach of a mathematical and kinetic analysis for improving the decoloration and further degradation process of an azo dye named acid red 27 (AR27), by means of a novel microbial consortium formed by the fungus Trametes versicolor and the bacterium Pseudomonas putida. A multivariate analysis was carried out by simulating scenarios with different operating conditions and developing a specific mathematical model based on kinetic equations describing all stages of the biological process, from microbial growth and substrate consuming to decoloration and degradation of intermediate compounds. Additionally, a sensitivity analysis was performed by using a factorial design and the Response Surface Method (RSM), for determining individual and interactive effects of variables like, initial glucose concentration, initial dye concentration and the moment in time for bacterial inoculation, on response variables assessed in terms of the minimum time for: full decoloration of AR27 (R1 = 2.375 days); maximum production of aromatic metabolites (R2 = 1.575 days); and full depletion of aromatic metabolites (R3 = 12.9 days). Using RSM the following conditions improved the biological process, being: an initial glucose concentration of 20 g l-1, an initial AR27 concentration of 0.2 g l-1 and an inoculation moment in time of P. putida at day 1. The mathematical model is a feasible tool for describing AR27 decoloration and its further degradation by the microbial consortium of T. versicolor and P. putida, this model will also work as a mathematical basis for designing novel bio-reaction systems than can operate with the same principle of the described consortium.

Abstract
Oxidase and peroxidase enzymes have attracted attention in various biotechnological industries due to their ease of synthesis, wide range of applications, and operation under mild conditions. Their applicability, however, is limited by their poor stability in harsher conditions and their non-reusability. As a result, several approaches such as enzyme engineering, medium engineering, and enzyme immobilization have been used to improve the enzyme properties. Several materials have been used as supports for these enzymes to increase their stability and reusability. This review focusses on the immobilization of oxidase and peroxidase enzymes on metal and metal oxide nanoparticle-polymer composite supports and the different methods used to achieve the immobilization. The application of the enzyme-metal/metal oxide-polymer biocatalysts in biosensing of hydrogen peroxide, glucose, pesticides, and herbicides as well as blood components such as cholesterol, urea, dopamine, and xanthine have been extensively reviewed. The application of the biocatalysts in wastewater treatment through degradation of dyes, pesticides, and other organic compounds has also been discussed.

Abstract
Environmental concerns due to the release of industrial wastewater contaminated with dyes are becoming more and more intense with the increasing industrialization. Decolorization of industrial effluents has become the top priority due to the continuous demand for color-free discharge into the receiving water bodies. Different dye removal techniques have been developed, among which biodegradation by laccase enzyme is competitive. Laccase, as a green catalyst, has a high catalytic activity, generates less toxic by-products, and has been extensively researched in the field of remediation of dyes. However, laccase's significant catalytic activity could only be achieved after an effective immobilization step. Immobilization helps strengthen and stabilize the protein structure of laccase, thus enhancing its functional properties. Additionally, the reusability of immobilized laccase makes it an attractive alternative to traditional dye degradation technologies and in the realistic applications of water treatment, compared with free laccase. This review has elucidated different methods and the carriers used to immobilize laccase. Furthermore, the role of immobilized laccase in dye remediation and the prospects have been discussed.

Abstract
A biocatalytic membrane offers an ideal alternative to the conventional treatment process for the removal of toxic pentachlorophenol (PCP). The limelight of the study is to utilize superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) incorporated (poly (methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic acid) (PMVEAMA) and poly (ether - ether) sulfone (PEES)) membrane for immobilization of laccase and its application towards the removal of PCP. In regard to immobilization of Tramates versicolor laccase onto membranes, 5 mM glutaraldehyde with 10 h cross-linking time was employed, yielding 76.92% and 77.96% activity recovery for PEES/PMVEAMA/La and PEES/PMVEAMA/SPIONs/Lac, respectively. In the context of kinetics and stability studies, the immobilized laccase on PEES/PMVEAMA/Lac membrane outperforms the free and PEES/PMVEAMA laccases. At pH 7.0, the free enzyme loses half of its activity, while the immobilized laccases maintained more than 87% of their initial activity even after 480 min. With regard to PCP removal, the removal efficiency of immobilized laccase on the membrane was more than free enzyme. With 100 ppm of PCP, immobilized laccase on PEES/PMVEAMA/SPIONs membrane at pH 4.0 and 50 °C had a removal efficacy of 61.65% in 24 h. Furthermore, to perk up the removal of PCP, the laccase-aided system with mediators was investigated. Amongst, veratryl alcohol displayed 71.04% of PCP removal using immobilized laccase. The reusability of the laccase heightened after immobilization on PEES/PMVEAMA/SPIONs portraying 62.44% of the residual activity with 39.4% of PCP removal even after five cycles. The current investigation reveals the efficacy of the mediator-aided PEES/PMVEAMA/lac membrane system towards removing PCP from the aqueous solution, which can also be proposed for a membrane bioreactor.

Abstract
Pure water, i.e., a sign of life, continuously circulates and is contaminated by different discharges. This emerging environmental problem has been attracting the attention of scientists searching for methods for the treatment of wastewater contaminated by multiple recalcitrant compounds. Various physical and chemical methods are used to degrade contaminants from water bodies. Traditional methods have certain limitations and complexities for bioenergy production, which motivates the search for new ways of sustainable bioenergy production and wastewater treatment. Biological strategies have opened new avenues to the treatment of wastewater using oxidoreductase enzymes for the degradation of pollutants. Fungal-based fuel cells (FFCs), with their catalysts, have gained considerable attention among scientists worldwide. They are a new, ecofriendly, and alternative approach to nonchemical methods due to easy handling. FFCs are efficiently used in wastewater treatment and the production of electricity for power generation. This article also highlights the construction of fungal catalytic cells and the enzymatic performance of different fungal species in energy production and the treatment of wastewater.

Abstract
Laccase is a versatile enzyme widely used for the oxidation of environmental contaminants and exhibits great potential in many others applications; however, it undergoes photo-degradation when irradiated with UVB light. The photo-stability of this biomolecule can be improved by immobilization in different encapsulation media and reverse micelles have been employed with this purpose. The laccase activity using syringaldazine as substrate has been studied in the absence and in the presence of reverse micelles of 0.15 M of sodium 1,4-bis (2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) in isooctane at W0 ([H2O]/[AOT]) = 30, before and after irradiation of the enzyme with UVB light. The kinetic parameters, i.e., Michaelis-Menten constant (KM), catalytic constant (kCAT), and catalytic efficiency (kCAT/KM), were determined by spectroscopic measurements in the micellar system and in homogeneous aqueous medium. The distribution of the substrate in two pseudo-phases (micelle and organic solvent) was taking into account in the kinetic parameters' determinations. The results obtained indicate that the nano-aggregate system confers a solubilization media in the water core of the micelle, both for the enzyme and the substrate, in which the catalytic function of the enzyme is preserved. On the other hand, in homogeneous aqueous medium kCAT/KM value, it is reduced by ~50% after UVB irradiation of the enzyme, while in micellar medium, less than 10% of the activity was affected. This mean that the enzyme achieves a considerably photo-protection when it is irradiated with UVB light in reverse micelles as compared with the homogeneous aqueous medium. This phenomenon can be mainly due to the confinement of the biomolecule inside the micelle. Physical properties of the nano-environment could affect photochemical reactions.

Abstract
Laccase is a multi-copper enzyme widely expressed in fungi, higher plants, and bacteria which facilitates the direct reduction of molecular oxygen to water (without hydrogen peroxide production) accompanied by the oxidation of an electron donor. Laccase has attracted attention in biotechnological applications due to its non-specificity and use of molecular oxygen as secondary substrate. This review discusses different applications of laccase in various sectors of food, paper and pulp, waste water treatment, pharmaceuticals, sensors, and fuel cells. Despite the many advantages of laccase, challenges such as high cost due to its non-reusability, instability in harsh environmental conditions, and proteolysis are often encountered in its application. One of the approaches used to minimize these challenges is immobilization. The various methods used to immobilize laccase and the different supports used are further extensively discussed in this review.

Abstract
Increasing trends of environmental pollution and emerging contaminants from anthropogenic activities have urged researchers to develop innovative strategies in wastewater management, including those using the biocatalyst laccase (EC 1.10.3.2). Laccase works effectively against a variety of substrates ranging from phenolic to non-phenolic compounds which only require molecular oxygen to be later reduced to H2O as the final product. In this study, we performed a bibliometric analysis on the metadata of literature acquired through the Scopus database (24 October 2022) with keyword combination "Laccase" AND "Pollutant" OR "Wastewater". The included publications were filtered based on year of publication (1978-2022), types of articles (original research articles and review articles) and language (English). The metadata was then exported in a CSV (.csv) file and visualized on VosViewer software. A total of 1865 publications were identified, 90.9% of which were original research articles and the remaining 9.1% were review articles. Most of the authors were from China (n = 416; 22.3%) and India (n = 276; 14.79%). In the case of subject area, 'Environmental Science' emerged with the highest published documents (n = 1053; 56.46%). The identified papers mostly cover laccase activity in degrading pollutants, and chitosan, which can be exploited for the immobilization. We encourage more research on laccase-assisted wastewater treatment, especially in terms of collaborations among organizations.

Abstract
The greenhouse gas methane (CH4) is of pivotal importance for Earth's climate system and as a human energy source. A significant fraction of this CH4 is produced by anaerobic Archaea. Here, we describe the first CH4 production by facultative anaerobic wood-rot fungi during growth on hydroxylated/carboxylated aromatic compounds, including lignin and lignite. The amount of CH4 produced by fungi is positively correlated with the amount of CH3Cl produced during the rapid growth period of the fungus. Biochemical, genetic, and stable isotopic tracer analyses reveal the existence of a novel halomethane-dependent fungal CH4 production pathway during the degradation of phenol and benzoic acid monomers and polymers and utilization of cyclic sugars. Even though this halomethane-dependent pathway may only play a side role in anaerobic fungal activity, it could represent a globally significant, previously overlooked source of biogenic CH4 in natural ecosystems. IMPORTANCE Here, we demonstrate that wood-rot fungi produce methane anaerobically without the involvement of methanogenic archaea via a new, halomethane-dependent pathway. These findings of an anaerobic fungal methane formation pathway open another avenue in methane research and will further assist with current efforts in the identification of the processes involved and their ecological implications.

Abstract
Polysaccharides (PSA) have taken specific position among biomaterials for advanced applications in medicine. Nevertheless, poor mechanical properties are known as the main drawback of PSA, which highlights the need for PSA modification. Nanocomposites PSA (NPSA) are a class of biomaterials widely used as biomedical platforms, but despite their importance and worldwide use, they have not been reviewed. Herein, we critically reviewed the application of NPSA by categorizing them into generic and advanced application realms. First, the application of NPSA as drug and gene delivery systems, along with their role in the field as an antibacterial platform and hemostasis agent is discussed. Then, applications of NPSA for skin, bone, nerve, and cartilage tissue engineering are highlighted, followed by cell encapsulation and more critically cancer diagnosis and treatment potentials. In particular, three features of investigations are devoted to cancer therapy, i.e., radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and photothermal therapy, are comprehensively reviewed and discussed. Since this field is at an early stage of maturity, some other aspects such as bioimaging and biosensing are reviewed in order to give an idea of potential applications of NPSA for future developments, providing support for clinical applications. It is well-documented that using nanoparticles/nanomaterials above a critical concentration brings about concerns of toxicity; thus, their effect on cellular interactions would become critical. We compared nanoparticles used in the fabrication of NPSA in terms of toxicity mechanism to shed more light on future challenging aspects of NPSA development. Indeed, the neutralization mechanisms underlying the cytotoxicity of nanomaterials, which are expected to be induced by PSA introduction, should be taken into account for future investigations.

Abstract
Enzymatic conversion of micropollutants into less-toxic derivatives is an important bioremediation strategy. This paper aims to critically review the progress in water and wastewater treatment by both free and immobilized enzymes presenting this approach as highly efficient and performed under environmentally benign and friendly conditions. The review also summarises the effects of inorganic and organic wastewater matrix constituents on enzymatic activity and degradation efficiency of micropollutants. Finally, application of enzymatic reactors facilitate continuous treatment of wastewater and obtaining of pure final effluents. Of a particular note, enzymatic treatment of micropollutants from wastewater has been mostly reported by laboratory scale studies. Thus, this review also highlights key research gaps of the existing techniques and provides future perspectives to facilitate the transfer of the lab-scale solutions to a larger scale and to improve operationability of biodegradation processes.

Abstract
Laccases are multi-copper oxidase enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of different compounds (phenolics and non-phenolics). The scientific literature on laccases is quite extensive, including many basic and applied research about the structure, functions, mechanism of action and a variety of biotechnological applications of these versatile enzymes. Laccases can be used in various industries/sectors, from the environmental field to the cosmetics industry, including food processing and the textile industry (dyes biodegradation and synthesis). Known as eco-friendly or green enzymes, the application of laccases in biocatalytic processes represents a promising sustainable alternative to conventional methods. Due to the advantages granted by enzyme immobilization, publications on immobilized laccases increased substantially in recent years. Many patents related to the use of laccases are available, however, the real industrial or environmental use of laccases is still challenged by cost-benefit, especially concerning the feasibility of producing this enzyme on a large scale. Although this is a compelling point and the enzyme market is heated, articles on the production and application of laccases usually neglect the economic assessment of the processes. In this review, we present a description of laccases structure and mechanisms of action including the different sources (fungi, bacteria, and plants) for laccases production and tools for laccases evolution and prediction of potential substrates. In addition, we both compare approaches for scaling-up processes with an emphasis on cost reduction and productivity and critically review several immobilization methods for laccases. Following the critical view on production and immobilization, we provide a set of applications for free and immobilized laccases based on articles published within the last five years and patents which may guide future strategies for laccase use and commercialization.

[PMID: 34467865 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2021.113619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2021] [Revised: 07/06/2021] [Accepted: 08/23/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
By virtue of screening, purification, and properties characterization, this study captures a new pH- and temperature-stable laccase, designated Galacc-F, from Ganoderma australe for dye bioremediating applications. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by salt precipitation, ionic exchange, and size exclusion chromatography with a final specific activity of 22.214 U mg-1, yielding a purification fold of 23.989 and recovery of 38.44%. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 48.0 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, zymography, Sephadex G-100 column, and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, which confirmed its monomeric nature. Galacc-F exhibited high levels of activity and stability over wide ranges of pH (5.0-8.0) and temperature (10-60 °C), which are highly valuable properties in industrial processes. Broad substrate specificity was observed, wherein a better affinity was found for 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) with a low value of Km (164.137 μM) and higher kcat/Km ratio (1.663 s-1 μM-1). Activity was stimulated by Cu2+ and β-mercaptoethanol but inhibited by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, diethylpyrocarbonate, iodoacetic acid, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, and Hg2+, indicating that Galacc-F is a metalloprotease containing a typical histidine-cysteine-serine catalytic triad. It had high tolerance to surfactants, oxidants, and salts. Additionally, a fabricated protocol for native Galacc-F immobilization onto Fe3O4@Chitosan composite nanoparticles using glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker was developed. Most importantly, the enzyme was determined to be ideal for use in efficient treatment of dye effluents as compared with the laccases requiring redox mediators.

Abstract
We immobilized a fungal laccase with only two spatially close lysines available for functionalization into macrocellular Si(HIPE) monoliths for the purpose of continuous flow catalysis. Immobilization (30-45 % protein immobilization yields) was obtained using a covalent bond forming reaction between the enzyme and low glutaraldehyde (0.625 % (w/w)) functionalized foams. Testing primarily HBT-mediated RB5 dye decolorization in continuous flow reactors, we show that the activity of the heterogeneous catalyst is comparable to its homogeneous counterpart. More, its operational activity remains as high as 60 % after twelve consecutive decolorization cycles as well as after one-year storage, performances remarkable for such a material. We further immobilized two variants of the laccase containing a unique lysine: one located in the vicinity of the substrate oxidation site (K157) and one at the opposite side of this oxidation site (K71) to study the effect of the proximity of the Si(HIPE) surface on enzyme activity. Comparing activities on different substrates for monoliths with differentially oriented catalysts, we show a twofold discrimination for ABTS relative to ascorbate. This study provides ground for the development of neo-functionalized materials that beyond allowing stability and reusability will become synergic partners in the catalytic process.

Abstract
The discharge of textile effluents enriched with reactive azo dyes is of critical importance owing to inability of the dyes to degrade in waste water and their carcinogenic, mutagenic effects to various organisms. This study initiated based on the need to gaze into molecular mechanism of marine bacterial bioremediation process to develop strategies for the decolorization and detoxification of the synthetic azo dyes. The experimental work carried out to explore decolorization and degradation efficacy of laccase derived from marine actinobacteria, Streptomyces sviceus by choosing Congo red-21 as model azo dye. The extracellular production of laccase was confirmed with plate assay in medium supplemented with ABTS as substrate. Laccase was purified to homogeneity from 72hrs culture of Streptomyces sviceus by Fast performance liquid chromatography and the molecular size of laccase was noticed as 60 kDa. The purified laccase was immobilized with an efficiency of 82% by Calcium alginate method. The crude, purified and immobilized forms of the laccase enzyme was used to decolorize the Congo red-21. Crude laccase enzyme showed 69% of decolorization of Congo red-21 after 48h where as purified and immobilized laccase represented 78% and 92% of colour removal after 24 h respectively. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry were used to unravel the molecular mechanism of dye detoxification and also identify nontoxic products released from Congo Red-21 upon administration with immobilized laccase. Based on GC-MS data, it may deduce that immobilized laccase of Streptomyces sviceus cleaves the Congo red-21 dye followed by oxidative cleavage, desulfonation, deamination, demethylation process.

Abstract
Synthetic dye bioremediation is a topic of great importance since these pollutants possess toxic effects, and huge quantities of them are being discharged into water bodies. Ligninolytic enzyme treatment stands out for being a cost-effective methodology, capable of obtaining high decolorization levels. In this work, a laccase enzyme treatment was evaluated to effectively perform a cycle of dye bioremediation. Furthermore, a dye decolorization improvement was also assessed through laccase immobilization. Particularly, a Trametes pubescens enzyme extract was concentrated, immobilized onto calcium alginate beads, and characterized to assess its dye decolorization potential. Ammonium sulfate precipitation and vacuum evaporation were evaluated to concentrate the crude extract and to decolorize allura red AC. Both treatments reached a high enzyme yield recovery (>90%), but only the vacuum-evaporated extract achieved a high allura red AC decolorization level after 16 h of contact time. This suggested that essential compounds for allura red AC decolorization were present in the crude extract, implying that neither a complete laccase purification process nor an addition of synthetic mediators are necessary. Under optimized immobilization conditions, 94.6% immobilization efficiency and 49.8% activity recovery were obtained with 0:1 alginate:enzyme (v/v), 100 mM CaCl2, and 5.0% w/v sodium alginate. Furthermore, by immobilizing the laccase concentrated extract, both the pH and temperature stabilities were improved. The decolorization of allura red AC by free and immobilized laccase was 68.4% and 4.6%, respectively, showing that although the enzyme stability was improved, dye decolorization was negatively affected. Thus, an efficient allura red AC decolorization was obtained with concentrated-free laccase by a feasible and low-cost methodology.

Abstract
Polymer flooding is one of the most important enhanced oil recovery techniques. However, a large amount of hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM)-containing wastewater is produced in the process of polymer flooding, and this poses a potential threat to the environment. In this study, the treatment of HPAM-containing wastewater was analyzed in an ozonic-anaerobic-aerobic multistage treatment process involving an ozone reactor (OR), an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor (UASBR), and an aerobic biofilm reactor (ABR). At an HPAM concentration of 500 mg L-1 and an ozone dose of 25 g O3/g TOC, the HPAM removal rate reached 85.06%. With fracturing of the carbon chain, high-molecular-weight HPAM was degraded into low-molecular-weight compounds. Microbial communities in bioreactors were investigated via high-throughput sequencing, which revealed that norank_c_Bacteroidetes_vadinHA17, norank_f_Cytophagaceae, and Meiothermus were the dominant bacterial groups, and that Methanobacterium, norank_c_WCHA1-57, and Methanosaeta were the key archaeal genera. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study in which HPAM-containing wastewater is treated using an ozonic-anaerobic-aerobic multistage treatment system. The ideal degradation performance and the presence of keystone microorganisms confirmed that the multistage treatment process is feasible for treatment of HPAM-containing wastewater.

Abstract
Laccases are versatile oxidases that are capable of decolorizing various synthetic dyes. Recombinant Bacillus amyloliquefaciens laccase was immobilized as magnetic cross-linked enzyme aggregates (M-CLEAs) for application in dye decolorization. Several parameters influencing the activity recovery were evaluated during the synthesis of M-CLEAs. With ammonium sulfate as precipitant, maximum activity was recovered by cross-linking with 0.16% glutaraldehyde for 1 h. The prepared M-CLEAs exhibited improved activity under alkaline conditions. It remained 74% activity after incubation at 60 °C for 5 h. Enhanced tolerance towards NaCl was also observed for the M-CLEAs, with 68% activity remaining in the presence of 1 M NaCl. The immobilized laccase could rapidly decolorize more than 93% of reactive black 5 and indigo carmine in 1 h, while its catalytic efficiency towards reactive blue 19 was relatively low. After four cycles of consecutive reuse, the M-CLEAs could decolorize 92% of indigo carmine. The easy recovery and reusability of M-CLEAs facilitate the potential application of bacterial laccase in dye decolorization.

Abstract
Laccases are polyphenol oxidoreductases used in a number of industrial applications. Due to the increasing demand for these "green catalysis" enzymes, the identification and biochemical characterisation of their novel properties is essential. In our study, cloned Madurella mycetomatis laccase (mmlac) genes were heterologously expressed in the methylotrophic yeast host Pichia pastoris. The high yield of the active recombinant protein in P. pastoris demonstrates the efficiency of a reliably constructed plasmid to express the laccase gene. The optimal biochemical conditions for the successfully expressed MmLac enzyme were identified. Detailed structural properties of the recombinant laccase were determined, and its utility in decolourisation and textile bleaching applications was examined. MmLac demonstrates good activity in an acidic pH range (4.0-6.0); is stable in the presence of cationic metals, organic solvents and under high temperatures (50-60 °C); and is stable for long-term storage at - 20 °C and - 80 °C for up to eight weeks. The structural analysis revealed that the catalytic residues are partially similar to other laccases. MmLac resulted in an increase in whiteness, whilst demonstrating high efficiency and stability and requiring the input of fewer chemicals. The performance of this enzyme makes it worthy of investigation for use in textile biotechnology applications, as well as within environmental and food technologies.

Abstract
The world today is in a quest for new means of environmental remediation as the methods currently used are not sufficient to halt the damage. Mostly, a global direction is headed toward a shift from traditional chemical-based methods to a more ecofriendly alternative. In this context, biocatalysis is seen as a cost-effective, energy saving, and clean alternative. It is meant to catalyze degradation of recalcitrant chemicals in an easy, rapid, green, and sustainable manner. One already established application of biocatalysis is the removal of dyes from natural water bodies using enzymes, notably oxidoreductases like laccases, due to their wide range of substrate specificity. In order to boost their catalytic activity, various methods of enhancements have been pursued including immobilization of the enzyme on different support materials. Aside from increased catalysis, immobilized laccases have the advantages of higher stability, better durability against harsh environment conditions, longer half-lives, resistance against protease enzymes, and the ability to be recovered for reuse. This review briefly outlines the current methods used for detoxification and decolorization of dye effluents stressing on the importance of laccases as a revolutionary biocatalytic solution to this environmental problem. This work highlights the significance of laccase immobilization and also points out some of the challenges and opportunities of this technology.
