Robust peroxidase from Bacillus mojavensis TH309: Immobilization on walnut shell hydrochar and evaluation of its potential in dye decolorization. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 277:134525. [PMID: 39111491 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 08/02/2024] [Accepted: 08/04/2024] [Indexed: 09/06/2024]
Abstract
Peroxidases have received considerable attention as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly catalyst for bioremediation. Their rapid activity loss under harsh environmental conditions and inability to be used repetitively limit their exploitation in real-world wastewater treatment. First, a peroxidase was produced extracellularly by Bacillus mojavensis TH309 and purified 8.12-fold with a final yield of 47.10 % using Sephadex G-100 superfine resin. The pure peroxidase (BmPer) possessed a relatively low molecular weight of ∼21 kDa and was active against L-DOPA on acrylamide gel after electrophoresis. BmPer was immobilized by adsorption functionalized walnut shell hydrochar (WsH) with 61.99 ± 1.34 % efficiency and 37.07 ± 4.16 % activity loss. BmPer and its immobilized form (WsH-BmPer) exhibited maximum activity at 50 °C and pH 9. WsH-BmPer exhibited 3.23-, 2.37-, 1.65-, and 2.25-fold longer half-life than BmPer at 50, 60, 70, and 80 °C, respectively. Immobilization significantly enhanced the stability of the enzyme under acidic conditions. BmPer and WsH-BmPer showed maximal activity in the presence of 1 % salt and retained more than 85 % of their activity even after pre-incubation with 2.5 M salt for 60 min at 50 °C. Their catalytic efficiency was significantly stimulated by pre-incubation with Triton X-100 (1 mM), Tween20 (1 mM), and Mg2+ (1 and 10 mM). Immobilization strongly reduced the loss of activity caused by inhibitors including Ba2+, Hg2+, and Cu2+. Moreover, both forms of the enzyme were compatible with solvents. The Michaelis constant (Km) values of BmPer and WsH-BmPer were 0.88 and 2.66 mM for 2,4 DCP, respectively. WsH-BmPer peroxidase maintained about 82 % and 85 % of its activity when stored at 4 °C for 30 days and reused for up to 10 cycles, respectively. Furthermore, it decolorized Cibacron red (CR), Poly R-478 (PR), Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR), and Methyl red (MR) dyes by 60.13 %, 91.34 %, 86.41 %, and 50.51 % within 60 min, respectively.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 476:135099. [PMID: 38981236 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.135099] [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: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 06/18/2024] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024]
Abstract
The substantial use of antibiotics contributes to the spread and evolution of antibiotic resistance, posing potential risks to food production systems, including mushroom production. In this study, the potential risk of antibiotics to Stropharia rugosoannulata, the third most productive straw-rotting mushroom in China, was assessed, and the underlying mechanisms were investigated. Tetracycline exposure at environmentally relevant concentrations (<500 μg/L) did not influence the growth of S. rugosoannulata mycelia, while high concentrations of tetracycline (>500 mg/L) slightly inhibited its growth. Biodegradation was identified as the main antibiotic removal mechanism in S. rugosoannulata, with a degradation rate reaching 98.31 % at 200 mg/L tetracycline. High antibiotic removal efficiency was observed with secreted proteins of S. rugosoannulata, showing removal efficiency in the order of tetracyclines > sulfadiazines > quinolones. Antibiotic degradation products lost the ability to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli, and tetracycline degradation products could not confer a growth advantage to antibiotic-resistant strains. Two laccases, SrLAC1 and SrLAC9, responsible for antibiotic degradation were identified based on proteomic analysis. Eleven antibiotics from tetracyclines, sulfonamides, and quinolones families could be transformed by these two laccases with degradation rates of 95.54-99.95 %, 54.43-100 %, and 5.68-57.12 %, respectively. The biosafety of the antibiotic degradation products was evaluated using the Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (TEST), revealing a decreased toxicity or no toxic effect. None of the S. rugosoannulata fruiting bodies from seven provinces in China contained detectable antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs). This study demonstrated that S. rugosoannulata can degrade antibiotics into non-toxic and non-bactericidal products that do not accelerate the spread of antibiotic resistance, ensuring the safety of S. rugosoannulata production.

Abstract
Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) is an industrially important enzyme associated with browning reactions. In the present study, a set of ten new dihydropyridine [2,3-d] pyrimidines (TD-Hid-1-10) were synthesized and was found to be proven characteristically by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, elemental analysis, and assessed as possible PPO inhibitors. PPO was purified from banana using three-phase partitioning, achieving an 18.65-fold purification and 136.47% activity recovery. Enzyme kinetics revealed that the compounds TD-Hid-6 and TD-Hid-7 are to be the most potent inhibitors, exhibiting mixed-type inhibition profile with IC50 values of 1.14 µM, 5.29 µM respectively against purified PPO enzyme. Electronic structure calculations at the B3LYP/PBE0 level of theories using def-2 SVP, def2-TZVP basis sets with various molecular descriptors characterized the electronic behavior of studied derivatives TD-Hid-1-10. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) and reduced density gradient analyses of RDG-NCI provided insights into charge distributions and weak intermolecular interactions. Docking study simulations predicted binding poses within crucial amino acid sequence in the 2y9x enzyme's active site, which is typically similar in sequence to the PPO form is not allowed. Ligands were analysed in terms of binding energies, inhibitor concentrations (mM) and various molecular interactions such as H-bonds, H-carbon, π-carbon, π-sigma, π-sigma, π-π T-shaped, π-π stacked, π-alkyl, Van der Waals and Cu interactions. The lowest binding energy (-7.83 kcal/mol) and the highest inhibitory effect (1.83 mM) were shown by the ligand Td-Hid-6, which forms H-bonds with Met280 and Asn260, exhibits π-sigma interactions with His61 and π-alkyl interactions with Val283. Other ligands also showed different interactions with various amino acids; for example, the Td-Hid-1 ligand formed H-bonds with His244 and showed π-sigma interactions with His244 and Val283.

Abstract
Peroxidases are promising catalysts for oxidation reactions, yet their practical utility has been hindered by the fact that they require hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which at high concentrations can cause deactivation of enzymes. Practical processes involving the use of peroxidases require the frequent addition of low concentrations of H2O2. In situ generation of H2O2 can be achieved using oxidase-type enzymes. In this study, a three-enzyme cascade system comprised of a H2O2 generator (glucose oxidase (GOx)), H2O2-dependent enzymes (chloroperoxidase (CPO) or horseradish peroxidase (HRP)), and a H2O2 scavenger (catalase (CAT)) was deployed in a flow reactor. Immobilization of the enzymes on a graphite rod was achieved through electrochemically driven physical adsorption, followed by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde. Modeling studies indicated that the flow in the reactor was laminar (Reynolds number, R e < 2000) and was nearly fully developed at the midplane of the annular reactor. Immobilized CAT and GOx displayed good stability, retaining 79% and 84% of their initial activity, respectively, after three cycles of operation. Conversely, immobilized CPO exhibited a considerable reduction in activity after one use, retaining only 30% of its initial activity. The GOx-CAT-GRE system enabled controlled delivery of H2O2 in a more stable manner with a 4-fold enhancement in the oxidation of indole compared to the direct addition of H2O2. Using CPO in solution coupled with GOx-CAT-GRE yields of 90% for the oxidation of indole to 2-oxyindole and of 93% and 91% for the chlorination of thymol and carvacrol, respectively.

Abstract
The present study aimed to develop a system using a combination of enzymatic and microbial degradation techniques for removing phenol from contaminated water. In our prior research, the HRP enzyme extracted from horseradish roots was utilized within a core-shell microcapsule to reduce phenolic shock, serving as a monolayer column. To complete the phenol removal process, a second column containing degrading microorganisms was added to the last column in this research. Phenol-degrading bacteria were isolated from different microbial sources on a phenolic base medium. Additionally, encapsulated calcium peroxide nanoparticles were used to provide dissolved oxygen for the microbial population. Results showed that the both isolated strains, WC1 and CC1, were able to completely remove phenol from the contaminated influent water the range within 5 to 7 days, respectively. Molecular identification showed 99.8% similarity for WC1 isolate to Stenotrophomonas rizophila strain e-p10 and 99.9% similarity for CC1 isolate to Bacillus cereus strain IAM 12,605. The results also indicated that columns using activated sludge as a microbial source had the highest removal rate, with the microbial biofilm completely removing 100% of the 100 mg/L phenol concentration in contaminated influent water after 40 days. Finally, the concurrent use of core-shell microcapsules containing enzymes and capsules containing Stenotrophomonas sp. WC1 strain in two continuous column reactors was able to completely remove phenol from polluted water with a concentration of 500 mg/L for a period of 20 days. The results suggest that a combination of enzymatic and microbial degrading systems can be used as a new system to remove phenol from polluted streams with higher concentrations of phenol by eliminating the shock of phenol on the microbial population.

Abstract
Recently, hybrid nanoflowers (hNFs), which are accepted as popular carrier supports in the development of enzyme immobilization strategies, have attracted much attention. In this study, the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was immobilized to mesoporous magnetic Fe3O4-NH2 by forming Schiff base compounds and the HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs were then synthesized. Under optimal conditions, 95.0% of the available HRP was immobilized on the Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs. Structural morphology and characterization of synthesized HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs were investigated. The results demonstrated that the average size of HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs was determined to be around 220 nm. The ζ-potential and magnetic saturation values of HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs were -33.58 mV and ∼30 emu/g, respectively. Additionally, the optimum pH, optimum temperature, thermal stability, kinetic parameters, reusability, and storage stability were examined. It was observed that the optimum pH value shifted from 5.0 to pH 8.0 after immobilization, while the optimum temperature shifted from 30 to 80 °C. K m values were calculated to be 15.5502 and 7.6707 mM for free HRP and the HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs, respectively, and V max values were calculated to be 0.0701 and 0.0038 mM min-1. The low K m value observed after immobilization indicated that the affinity of HRP for its substrate increased. The HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs showed higher thermal stability than free HRP, and its residual activity after six usage cycles was approximately 45%. While free HRP lost all of its activity within 120 min at 65 °C, the HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs retained almost all of its activity during the 6 h incubation period at 80 °C. Most importantly, the HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs demonstrated good potential efficiency for the biodegradation of methyl orange, phenol red, and methylene blue dyes. The HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs were used for a total of 8 cycles to degrade methyl orange, phenol red, and methylene blue, and degradation of around 81, 96, and 56% was obtained in 8 h, respectively. Overall, we believe that the HRP@Fe3O4-NH2/hNFs reported in this work can be potentially used in various industrial and environmental applications, particularly for the biodegradation of recalcitrant compounds, such as textile dyes.

Abstract
We present the synthesis of a cross-linking enzyme aggregate (CLEAS) of a peroxidase from Megathyrsus maximus (Guinea Grass) (GGP). The biocatalyst was produced using 50%v/v ethanol and 0.88%w/v glutaraldehyde for 1 h under stirring. The immobilization yield was 93.74% and the specific activity was 36.75 U mg-1. The biocatalyst surpassed by 61% the free enzyme activity at the optimal pH value (pH 6 for both preparations), becoming this increase in activity almost 10-fold at pH 9. GGP-CLEAS exhibited a higher thermal stability (2-4 folds) and was more stable towards hydrogen peroxide than the free enzyme (2-3 folds). GGP-CLEAS removes over 80% of 0.05 mM indigo carmine at pH 5, in the presence of 0.55 mM H2O2 after 60 min of reaction, a much higher value than when using the free enzyme. The operational stability showed a decrease of enzyme activity (over 60% in 4 cycles), very likely related to suicide inhibition.

Immobilization of Horseradish Peroxidase onto Montmorillonite/Glucosamine-Chitosan Composite for Electrochemical Biosensing of Polyphenols. BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:278. [PMID: 38920582 PMCID: PMC11201438 DOI: 10.3390/bios14060278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024]
Abstract
Glucosamine-chitosan synthesized by the Maillard reaction was combined with montmorillonite to obtain a nanohybrid composite to immobilize horseradish peroxidase. The material combines the advantageous properties of clay with those of the chitosan derivative; has improved water solubility and reduced molecular weight and viscosity; involves an eco-friendly synthesis; and exhibits ion exchange capacity, good adhesiveness, and a large specific surface area for enzyme adsorption. The physicochemical characteristics of the composite were analyzed by infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction to determine clay-polycation interactions. The electrochemical response of the different polyphenols to glassy carbon electrodes modified with the composite was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry. The sensitivity and detection limit values obtained with the biosensor toward hydroquinone, chlorogenic acid, catechol, and resorcinol are (1.6 ± 0.2) × 102 µA mM-1 and (74 ± 8) nM; (1.2 ± 0.1) × 102 µA mM-1 and (26 ± 3) nM; (16 ± 2) µA mM-1 and (0.74 ± 0.09) μM; and (3.7± 0.3) µA mM-1 and (3.3 ± 0.2) μM, respectively. The biosensor was applied to quantify polyphenols in pennyroyal and lemon verbena extracts.

Abstract
Many scientific fields, although driven by similar purposes and dealing with similar technologies, often appear so isolated and far from each other that even the vocabularies to describe the very same phenomenon might differ. Concerning the vast field of biocatalysis, a special role is played by those redox enzymes that employ oxygen-based chemistry to unlock transformations otherwise possible only with metal-based catalysts. As such, greener chemical synthesis methods and environmentally-driven biotechnological approaches were enabled over the last decades by the use of several enzymes and ultimately resulted in the first industrial applications. Among what can be called today the environmental biorefinery sector, biomass transformation, greenhouse gas reduction, bio-gas/fuels production, bioremediation, as well as bulk or fine chemicals and even pharmaceuticals manufacturing are all examples of fields in which successful prototypes have been demonstrated employing redox enzymes. In this review we decided to focus on the most prominent enzymes (MMOs, LPMO, P450 and UPO) capable of overcoming the ∼100 kcal mol-1 barrier of inactivated CH bonds for the oxyfunctionalization of organic compounds. Harnessing the enormous potential that lies within these enzymes is of extreme value to develop sustainable industrial schemes and it is still deeply coveted by many within the aforementioned fields of application. Hence, the ambitious scope of this account is to bridge the current cutting-edge knowledge gathered upon each enzyme. By creating a broad comparison, scientists belonging to the different fields may find inspiration and might overcome obstacles already solved by the others. This work is organised in three major parts: a first section will be serving as an introduction to each one of the enzymes regarding their structural and activity diversity, whereas a second one will be encompassing the mechanistic aspects of their catalysis. In this regard, the machineries that lead to analogous catalytic outcomes are depicted, highlighting the major differences and similarities. Finally, a third section will be focusing on the elements that allow the oxyfunctionalization chemistry to occur by delivering redox equivalents to the enzyme by the action of diverse redox partners. Redox partners are often overlooked in comparison to the catalytic counterparts, yet they represent fundamental elements to better understand and further develop practical applications based on mono- and peroxygenases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Water stress is a major danger to crop yield, hence new approaches to strengthen plant resilience must be developed. To lessen the negative effects of water stress on wheat plants, present study was arranged to investigate the role of synergistic effects of biochar, trans-zeatin riboside (t-ZR), and Azospirillum brasilense on soil improvement and enzymatic activity in water-stressed wheat. RESULTS In a three-replication experiment comprising of four treatments (T0: Control, T1: Drought stress (DS), T2: DS + t-ZR with biochar, T3: DS + A. brasilense with biochar), we observed notable improvements in soil quality and enzymatic activities in water-stressed wheat plants with the application of t-ZR and A. brasilense with biochar. In drought stress, Treatment having the application of A. brasilense with biochar performs best as compared to the other and significant increased the enzymatic activities such as peroxidase (7.36%), catalase (8.53%), superoxide dismutase (6.01%), polyphenol oxidase (14.14%), and amylase (16.36%) in wheat plants. Different enzymatic activities showed different trends of results. Soil organic C, dissolved organic C, dissolved organic N also enhanced 29.46%, 8.59%, 22.70% respectively with the application of A. brasilense with biochar under drought stress condition. CONCLUSIONS The synergistic action of A. brasilense and biochar creates an effective microbiological environment that supports essential plant physiological processes during drought stress. This enhancement is attributed to improved soil fertility and increased organic matter content, highlighting the potential of these novel strategies in mitigating water stress effects and enhancing crop resilience.

Abstract
Hypoxia is one of the common abiotic stresses that negatively affects the development and productivity of agricultural crops. Quercetin is used to protect plants from oxidative stress when exposed to environmental stressors. O2 deficiency leads to impaired development and morphometric parameters in wheat varieties Orenburgskaya 22 (Triticum aestivum L.) and varieties Zolotaya (Triticum durum Desf.). Cytological analysis revealed various types of changes in the cytoplasm under conditions of hypoxia and treatment with quercetin. The most critical changes in the cytoplasm occur in the Zolotaya variety during pretreatment with quercetin followed by hypoxia, and in the Orenburgskaya 22 variety during hypoxia. Quercetin has a protective effect only on the Orenburgskaya 22 variety, and also promotes a more effective recovery after exposure to low O2 content. Hypoxia causes an increase in reactive oxygen species and activates the antioxidant system. It has been shown that the most active components of the antioxidant system in the Orenburgskaya 22 variety are MnSOD and Cu/ZnSOD, and in the Zolotaya variety GSH. We have shown that quercetin provides resistance only to the wheat genotype Orenburgskaya 22, as a protective agent against abiotic stress, which indicates the need for a comprehensive study of the effects of exogenous protectors before use in agriculture.

Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are highly fluorinated synthetic organic compounds that have been used extensively in various industries owing to their unique properties. The PFAS family encompasses diverse classes, with only a fraction being commercially relevant. These substances are found in the environment, including in water sources, soil, and wildlife, leading to human exposure and fueling concerns about potential human health impacts. Although PFAS degradation is challenging, biodegradation offers a promising, eco-friendly solution. Biodegradation has been effective for a variety of organic contaminants but is yet to be successful for PFAS due to a paucity of identified microbial species capable of transforming these compounds. Recent studies have investigated PFAS biotransformation and fluoride release; however, the number of specific microorganisms and enzymes with demonstrable activity with PFAS remains limited. This review discusses enzymes that could be used in PFAS metabolism, including haloacid dehalogenases, reductive dehalogenases, cytochromes P450, alkane and butane monooxygenases, peroxidases, laccases, desulfonases, and the mechanisms of microbial resistance to intracellular fluoride. Finally, we emphasize the potential of enzyme and microbial engineering to advance PFAS degradation strategies and provide insights for future research in this field.

Enhanced biomimetic catalysis via self-cascade photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide production over modified carbon nitride nanozymes for total antioxidant capacity evaluation. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 660:771-779.

Abstract
The peroxidase mimics usually requires the addition of exogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which greatly hinder their practical applications. Herein, through rational co-modification of multiple elements (potassium (K), chlorine (Cl) and iodine (I)), the modified carbon nitride nanomaterials (KCl/KI-CN) could serve as efficient bifunctional catalysts. The multiple elements doping and the incorporation of cyano groups (CN) are deemed to enhance their photocatalytic and peroxidase-like activity, respectively. Based on the photocatalytic function, H2O2 can be produced continuously and steadily via two-electron oxygen reduction over modified carbon nitride under visible light irradiation. Subsequently, the KCl/KI-CN could catalyze the chromogenic substrate by the in-situ produced H2O2. Taking advantage of the bifunctional properties of modified carbon nitride, we for the first time demonstrate a self-cascade catalytic process and apply successfully for the ascorbic acid (AA) detection and versatile total antioxidant capacity (TAC) evaluation. This paper not only prepares an efficiently bifunctional catalyst but also provides a new self-cascade photocatalytic H2O2 production strategy for the peroxidase-like application.

Abstract
Thermal treatment are commonly used to address organic contaminated soils. In particular, the pyrolysis of organic substances can result in the creation of environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs). We investigated a steelworks site in Chongqing (China) to observe changes in EPFRs before and after thermal treatment. Our findings revealed that the EPFRs were carbon-centered radicals with a g-factor < 2.0030 and a spin density ranging from n.d.-5.23 × 1015 spins/mg. The formation of EPFRs was driving by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), Mn, Cu, and total organic carbon (TOC). Following the thermal treatment, the spin densities of EPFRs increased by a factor of 0.25 to 1.81, with maximum levels reached at 300 °C. High molecular weight PAHs exhibited high heat capacity, enabling the generation of more EPFRs. The thermal decay of EPFRs occurred in two stages, with the shortest 1/e lifetime lasting up to 16.8 h. Raising the temperature or prolonging time can significantly reduce EPFRs levels. Thermal treatment increased the generation of EPFRs, hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and superoxide radical (•O2-), leading to a decrease in bacterial luminescence. Specifically, •OH contributed to approximately 73% of the B. brilliantus inhibition. Our results highlight that the thermal treatment significantly enhance EPFRs concentrations, and the treated soil remained ecologically risky. The knowledge of the formation of EPFRs and their biotoxicity is shedding new light on the thermal treatment risk management.

Abstract
In this work, the bioremediation of wastewater from the textile industry with indigo dye content was carried out using combined bioaugmentation, bioventilation, and biostimulation techniques. Initially, the inoculum was prepared by isolating the microorganisms from the textile wastewater in a 2 L bioreactor. Then, the respirometry technique was implemented to determine the affinity of the microorganisms and the substrate by measuring CO2 and allowed the formulation of an empirical mathematical model for the growth kinetics of the microorganism. Finally, the bioremediation was carried out in a 3 L bioreactor obtaining an indigo dye removal efficiency of 20.7 ± 1.2%, 24.0 ± 1.5%, and 29.7 ± 1.1% for equivalent wavelengths of 436 nm, 525 nm, and 620 nm. The chemical oxygen demand showed an average reduction of 88.9 ± 2.5%, going from 470.7 ± 15.6 to 52.3 ± 10.7 ppm after 30 days under constant agitation and aeration. A negative generalized exponential model was fitted to assess the affinity of the microorganism with the wastewater as a substrate by evaluating the production of CO2 during the bioremediation. Bioremediation techniques improve water discharge parameters compared to chemical treatments implemented in the industry, reducing the use of substances that can generate secondary pollution. Bioaugmentation, biostimulation, and bioventing of the textile wastewater in this study demonstrate the potential of these combined techniques to serve as an efficient alternative for indigo-contaminated wastewater in the textile industry.

Abstract
Explosives are perilous and noxious to aquatic biota disrupting their endocrinal systems. Supplementarily, they exhibit carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects on humans and animals. Henceforth, the current study has been targeted to biotransform the explosive, 2, 4, 6 trinitrophenol (TNP) by wetland peroxidase from Streptomyces coelicolor. A total peroxidase yield of 20,779 mg/l with 51.6 folds of purification was observed. In silico molecular docking cum in vitro appraisals were accomplished to assess binding energy and interacting binding site residues of peroxidase and TNP complex. TNP required a minimal binding energy of-6.91 kJ/mol and was subjected to biodeterioration (89.73%) by peroxidase in purified form, with 45 kDa and a similarity score of 34 by MASCOT protein analysis. Moreover, the peroxidase activity was confirmed with Zymogram analysis. Characterization of peroxidase revealed that optimum values of pH and temperature as 6 and 40 °C, respectively, with their corresponding stability varying from 3.5 to 7. Interestingly, the kinetic parameters such as Km and Vmax on 2,2'-azino-bis 3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) and H2O2 were 19.27 µm and 0.41 µm/min; 21.4 µm and 0.1 µm/min, respectively. Among the diverse substrates, chemicals and trace elements, ABTS (40 mM), citric acid (5 mM) and Fe2+ (5 mM) displayed the highest peroxidase activity. Computational docking and in vitro results were corroborative and UV-Vis spectroscopy, HPLC, FTIR and GC-MS indicated the presence of simple metabolites of TNP such as nitrophenols and benzoquinone, showcasing the efficacy of S. coelicolor peroxidase to biotransform TNP. Henceforth, the current study offers a promising channel for biological treatment of explosive munitions, establishing a sustainable green earth.

Maucourt F, Doumèche B, Nazaret S, Fraissinet-Tachet L. Under explored roles of microbial ligninolytic enzymes in aerobic polychlorinated biphenyl transformation. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:19071-19084. [PMID: 38372925 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-024-32291-4] [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: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants in the environment that are responsible for many adverse health effects. Bioremediation appears to be a healthy and cost-effective alternative for remediating PCB-contaminated environments. While some microbial species have been observed to be capable of transforming PCBs, only two different microbial pathways (rdh and bph pathways) have been described to be involved in PCB transformations. Ligninolytic enzymes have been observed or are under suspicion in some microbial PCB transformations. However, the role of these promising PCB-transforming enzymes, which are produced by fungi and some aerobic bacteria, is still unclear. The present review describes their role by identifying microbial PCB-transforming species and their reported ligninolytic enzymes whether proven or suspected to be involved in PCB transformations. There are several lines of evidence that ligninolytic enzymes are responsible for PCB transformations such as (1) the ability of purified laccases from Myceliophthora thermophila, Pycnoporus cinnabarinus, Trametes versicolor, Cladosporium sp, and Coprinus cumatus to transform hydroxy-PCBs; (2) the increased production of laccases and peroxidases by many fungi in the presence of PCBs; and (3) the enhanced PCB transformation by Pseudomonas stutzeri and Sinorhizobium meliloti NM after the addition of ligninolytic enzyme enhancers. However, if the involvement of ligninolytic enzymes in PCB transformation is clearly demonstrated in some fungal species, it does not seem to be implicated in all microbial species suggesting other still unknown metabolic pathways involved in PCB transformation and different from the bph and rdh pathways. Therefore, PCB transformation may involve several metabolic pathways, some involving ligninolytic enzymes, bph or rdh genes, and some still unknown, depending on the microbial species. In addition, current knowledge does not fully clarify the role of ligninolytic enzymes in PCB oxidation and dechlorination. Therefore, further studies focusing on purified ligninolytic enzymes are needed to clearly elucidate their role in PCB transformation.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 914:169939.

Abstract
Soil cadmium (Cd) pollution is escalating, necessitating effective remediation strategies. This study investigated the effects of exogenous jasmonic acid (JA) on Sedum alfredii Hance under Cd stress, aiming to enhance its phytoextraction efficiency. Initially, experiments were conducted to assess the impact of various concentrations of JA added to environments with Cd concentrations of 100, 300, and 500 μmol/L. The results determined that a concentration of 1 μmol/L JA was optimal. This concentration effectively mitigated the level of ROS products by enhancing the activity of antioxidant enzymes. Additionally, JA fostered Cd absorption and accumulation, while markedly improving plant biomass and photosynthetic performance. In further experiments, treatment with 1 μmol/L JA under 300 μmol/L Cd stress was performed and transcriptomic analysis unveiled a series of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) instrumental in the JA-mediated Cd stress response. These DEGs encompass not only pathways of JA biosynthesis and signaling but also genes encoding functions that influence antioxidant systems and photosynthesis, alongside genes pertinent to cell wall synthesis, and metal chelation and transport. This study highlights that JA treatment significantly enhances S. alfredii's Cd tolerance and accumulation, offering a promising strategy for plant remediation and deepening our understanding of plant responses to heavy metal stress.

Abstract
Lignin peroxidase (LiP) has a good application prospect in lignin degradation, environmental treatment, straw feed, and other industries. However, its application is constrained by the high price and low stability of enzyme preparation. In this study, the Escherichia coli-Bacillus subtilis (E. coli-B. subtilis) shuttle expression vector pHS-cotG-lip was constructed and displayed on the surface of Bacillus subtilis spores. The analysis of enzymatic properties showed that the optimal catalytic temperature and pH of the immobilized LiP were 55 °C and 4.5, respectively. Compared with free LiP (42 °C and pH4.0), the optimal reaction temperature increased by 13 °C. After incubation at 70 °C for 1 h, its activity remained above 30%, while the free LiP completely lost its activity under the same conditions. Adding Mn2+, DL-lactic acid, and PEG-4000 increased the CotG-LiP enzyme activity to 313%, 146%, and 265%, respectively. The recyclability of spore display made the fusion protein CotG-LiP retain more than 50% enzyme activity after four cycles. The excellent recycling rate indicated that LiP displayed on the spore surface had a good application prospect in sewage treatment and other fields, and also provided a reference for the rapid and low-cost immobilized production of enzyme preparations.

Abstract
A wide array of organic compounds have been recognized as pollutants of high concern due to their controlled or uncontrolled presence in environmental matrices. The persistent prevalence of diverse organic pollutants, including pharmaceutical compounds, phenolic compounds, synthetic dyes, and other hazardous substances, necessitates robust measures for their practical and sustainable removal from water bodies. Several bioremediation and biodegradation methods have been invented and deployed, with a wide range of materials well-suited for diverse environments. Enzyme-linked carbon-based materials have been considered efficient biocatalytic platforms for the remediation of complex organic pollutants, mostly showing over 80% removal efficiency of micropollutants. The advantages of enzyme-linked carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in enzyme immobilization and improved catalytic potential may thus be advantageous for environmental research considering the current need for pollutant removal. This review outlines the perspective of current remediation approaches and highlights the advantageous features of enzyme-linked CNTs in the removal of pollutants, emphasizing their reusability and stability aspects. Furthermore, different applications of enzyme-linked CNTs in environmental research with concluding remarks and future outlooks have been highlighted. Enzyme-linked CNTs serve as a robust biocatalytic platform for the sustainability agenda with the aim of keeping the environment clean and safe from a variety of organic pollutants.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 254:127900.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization on solid support offers advantages over free enzymes by overcoming characteristic limitations. To synthesize new stable and hyperactive nano-biocatalysts (co-precipitation method), ginger peroxidase (GP) was surface immobilized (adsorption) on ZnO/SnO2 and ZnO/SnO2/SA nanocomposite with immobilization efficacy of 94 % and 99 %, respectively. Thereafter, catalytic and biochemical characteristics of free and immobilized GP were investigated by deploying various techniques, i.e., FTIR, PXRD, SEM, and PL. Diffraction peaks emerged at 2θ values of 26°, 33°, 37°, 51°, 31°, 34°, 36°, 56°, indicating the formation of SnO2 and ZnO. The OH stretching of the H2O molecules was attributed to broad peaks between 3200 and 3500 cm-1, whereas ZnO/SnO2 spikes occurred in the 1626-1637 cm-1 range. SnO stretching mode and ZnO terminal vibrational patterns have been verified at corresponding wavelengths of 625 cm-1 and 560 cm-1. Enzyme entrapment onto substrate was verified via interactions between GP and ZnO/SnO2/SA as corroborated by signals beneath 1100 cm-1. GP-immobilized fractions were optimally active at pH 5, 50 °C, and retained maximum activity after storage of 4 weeks at -4 °C. Kinetic parameters were determined by using a Lineweaver-Burk plot and Vmax for free GP, ZnO/SnO2/GP and ZnO/SnO2/SA/GP with guaiacol as a substrate, were found to be 322.58, 49.01 and 11.45 (μM/min) respectively. A decrease in values of Vmax and KM indicates strong adsorption of peroxidase on support and maximum affinity between nano support and enzyme, respectively. For environmental remediation, free ginger peroxidase (GP), ZnO/SnO2/GP and ZnO/SnO2/SA/GP fractions effectively eradicated highly intricate dye. Multiple scavengers had a significant impact on the depletion of the dye. In conclusion, ZnO/SnO2 and ZnO/SnO2/SA nanostructures comprise an ecologically acceptable and intriguing carrier for enzyme immobilization.

ROS scavenging enzyme-encoding genes play important roles in the desert moss Syntrichia caninervis response to extreme cold and desiccation stresses. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 254:127778.

Abstract
Abiotic stress is one of the major environmental constraints limiting plant growth. Syntrichia caninervis is one of the unique plant models that can cope with harsh environments. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a vital signaling molecule for protecting plants from oxidative stress, but research on ROS in S. caninervis is limited. Here, we identified 112 ROS genes in S. caninervis, including 40 GSTs, 51 PODs, 9 SODs, 6 CATs, 3 GPXs and 3 APXs families. GO and KEGG analyses showed that ROS genes are involved in responses to various stimuli and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis. ROS genes contain many stress-responsive and hormonal cis-elements in their promoter regions. More ROS genes were induced by cold stress than desiccation stress, and both conditions changed the transcript abundances of several ROS genes. CAT and POD, H2O2, MDA, and GSH were also induced under biotic stress, specifically CAT activity. The results indicated that the ScCAT genes and their activities could be strongly associated with the regulation of ROS production. This is the first systematic identification of ROS genes in S. caninervis and our findings contribute to further research into the roles of ScROS adjustment under abiotic stress while also providing excellent genetic resources for plant breeding.

Abstract
The growing concentrations of micropollutants in aquatic ecosystems are a global water quality issue. Understanding micropollutants varied chemical composition and potency is essential to solving this complex issue. Micropollutants management requires identifying contaminants to reduce, optimal reduction targets, and the best wastewater recycling locations. Management requires appropriate technological measures. Pharmaceuticals, antibiotics, hormones, and other micropollutants can enter the aquatic environment from point and diffuse sources, with wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) distributing them in urban areas. Micropollutants like pharmaceuticals and hormones may not be removed by conventional WWTPs. Micropollutants affect the EU, especially in densely populated areas where surface water is consumed. This review examines several technological options that can be integrated into existing treatment methods to address this issue. In this work, oxidation, activated carbon, and their combinations as potential solutions, considering their efficacy and cost were evaluated. This study illuminates micropollutants origin and physico-chemical properties, which affect distribution, persistence, and environmental impacts. Understanding these factors helps us develop targeted micropollutant mitigation strategies to protect water quality. This review can inform policy and decision-making to reduce micropollutant impacts on aquatic ecosystems and human health.

Abstract
Aflatoxins are a class of highly toxic mycotoxins. Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is hydroxylated metabolite of aflatoxin B1, having comparable toxicity, which is more commonly found in milk. In this study, the whole genome sequencing of Bacillus pumilus E-1-1-1 isolated from feces of 38 kinds of animals, having aflatoxin M1 degradation ability was conducted. Bacterial genome sequencing indicated that a total of 3445 sequences were finally annotated on 23 different cluster of orthologous groups (COG) categories. Then, the potential AFM1 degradation proteins were verified by proteomics; the properties of these proteins were further explored, including protein molecular weight, hydrophobicity, secondary structure prediction, and three-dimensional structures. Bacterial genome sequencing combined with proteomics showed that eight genes were the most capable of degrading AFM1 including three catalases, one superoxide dismutase, and four peroxidases to clone. These eight genes with AFM1 degrading capacity were successfully expressed. These results indicated that AFM1 can be degraded by Bacillus pumilus E-1-1-1 protein and the most degrading proteins were oxidoreductases.

The colorimetric detection of glucose in urine through enzymatic reactions offers a low-cost and non-invasive method to aid in diabetes management. Nonetheless, the vulnerability of enzymes to environmental conditions, particularly elevated temperatures, and their activity loss pose significant challenges for transportation and storage. In this work, we developed a stable and portable tablet sensor as a user-friendly platform for glucose monitoring. This innovative device encapsulates glucose oxidase and horseradish peroxidase enzymes with dextran, transforming them into solid tablets and ensuring enhanced stability and practicality. The enzymatic tablet-based sensor detected glucose in urine samples within 5 min, using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as the indicator. The tablet sensor exhibited responsive performance within the clinically relevant range of 0-6 mM glucose, with a limit of detection of 0.013 mM. Furthermore, the tablets detected glucose in spiked real human urine samples, without pre-processing, with high precision. Additionally, with regard to thermal stability, the enzyme tablets better maintained their activity at an elevated temperature as high as 60 °C compared to the solution-phase enzymes, demonstrating the enhanced stability of the enzymes under harsh conditions. The availability of these stable and portable tablet sensors will greatly ease the transportation and application of glucose sensors, enhancing the accessibility of glucose monitoring, particularly in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
Peroxidases are widespread key antioxidant enzymes that catalyse the oxidation of electron donor substrates in parallel with the decomposition of H2O2. In this work, a novel tomato peroxidase, named SAAP2, was isolated from MicroTom cell cultures, purified, and characterised. The enzyme was identified with 64% sequence coverage as the leprx21 gene product (suberization-associated anionic peroxidase 2-like) from Solanum lycopersicum, 334 amino acids long. Compared to other plant peroxidases, SAAP2 was more active at elevated temperatures, with the optimal temperature and pH at 90 °C and 5.0, respectively. Furthermore, the enzyme retained more than 80% of its maximal activity over the range of 70-80 °C and the presence of NaCl (1.0-4.5 M). It also exhibited broad pH versatility (65% relative activity over the pH range 2.0-7.0), acid-tolerance (80% residual activity after 22 h at pH 2.0-7.0), high thermostability (50% residual activity after 2 h at 80 °C) and proteolytic resistance. SAAP2 exhibited exceptional resistance under thermo-acidic conditions compared to the horseradish peroxidase benchmark, suggesting that it may find potential applications as a supplement or anti-pollution agent in the food industry.

Abstract
The degradation of phenol from wastewater is crucial for environmental protection. Biological enzymes, such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP), have shown great potential in the degradation of phenol. In this research, we prepared a hollow CuO/Cu2O octahedron adsorbent with a carambola matrix shape through the hydrothermal method. The surface of the adsorbent was modified by silane emulsion self-assembly, where 3-aminophenyl boric acid (APBA) and polyoxometalate (PW9) were combined with silanization reagents and grafted onto the surface. The adsorbent was then molecularly imprinted with dopamine to obtain boric acid modified polyoxometalate molecularly imprinted polymer (Cu@B@PW9@MIPs). This adsorbent was used to immobilize HRP, which served as a biological enzyme catalyst from horseradish. The adsorbent was characterized, and its synthetic conditions, experimental conditions, selectivity, reproducibility, and reusability were evaluated. The maximum adsorption amount of HRP under optimized conditions was 159.1 mg g-1, as determined using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). At pH 7.0, the immobilized enzyme showed a high efficiency of up to 90.0% in removing phenol, after 20 min of reaction with 25 mmol L-1 H2O2 and 0.20 mg mL-1 Cu@B@PW9@HRP. Growth tests of aquatic plants confirmed that the adsorbent reduced harm. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) tests revealed that the degraded phenol solution contained about fifteen phenol derivatives intermediates. This adsorbent has the potential to become a promising biological enzyme catalyst for dephenolization.

Abstract
Causing major health and ecological disturbances, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants still recovered all over the world. Microbial PCB biotransformation is a promising technique for depollution, but the involved molecular mechanisms remain misunderstood. Ligninolytic enzymes are suspected to be involved in many PCB transformations, but their assessments remain scarce. To further inventory the capabilities of microbes to transform PCBs through their ligninolytic enzymes, we investigated the role of oxidase and peroxidase among a set of microorganisms isolated from a historically PCB-contaminated site. Among 29 isolated fungi and 17 bacteria, this work reports for the first time the PCB-transforming capabilities from fungi affiliated to Didymella, Dothiora, Ilyonectria, Naganishia, Rhodoturula, Solicoccozyma, Thelebolus and Truncatella genera and bacteria affiliated to Peribacillus frigotolerans, Peribacillus muralis, Bacillus mycoides, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus toyonensis, Pseudarthrobacter sp., Pseudomonas chlororaphis, Erwinia aphidicola and Chryseobacterium defluvii. In the same way, this is the first report of fungal isolates affiliated to the Dothiora maculans specie and Cladosporium genus that displayed oxidase (putatively laccase) and peroxidase activity, respectively, enhanced in the presence of PCBs (more than 4-fold and 20-fold, respectively, compared to controls). Based on these results, the observed activities are suspected to be involved in PCB transformation.

Abstract
The prevalence of antibiotic traces in the aquatic matrices is a concern due to the emanation of antibiotic resistance which requires a multifaceted approach. One of the potential sources is the wastewater treatment plants with a lack of advance infrastructure leading to the dissemination of contaminants. Continuous advancements in economic globalization have facilitated the application of several conventional, advanced, and hybrid techniques for the mitigation of rising antibiotic traces in the aquatic matrices that have been thoroughly scrutinized in the current paper. Although the implementation of existing mitigation techniques is associated with several limiting factors and barriers which require further research to enhance their removal efficiency. The review further summarizes the application of the microbial processes to combat antibiotic persistence in wastewater establishing a sustainable approach. However, hybrid technologies are considered as most efficient and environmental-benign due to their higher removal efficacy, energy-efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. A brief elucidation has been provided for the mechanism responsible for lowering antibiotic concentration in wastewater through biodegradation and biotransformation. Overall, the current review presents a comprehensive approach for antibiotic mitigation using existing methods however, policies and measures should be implemented for continuous monitoring and surveillance of antibiotic persistence in aquatic matrices to reduce their potential risk to humans and the environment.

Abstract
Throughout evolution, plants have developed a highly complex defense system against different threats, including phytopathogens. Plant defense depends on constitutive and induced factors combined as defense mechanisms. These mechanisms involve a complex signaling network linking structural and biochemical defense. Antimicrobial and pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins are examples of this mechanism, which can accumulate extra- and intracellular space after infection. However, despite their name, some PR proteins are present at low levels even in healthy plant tissues. When they face a pathogen, these PRs can increase in abundance, acting as the first line of plant defense. Thus, PRs play a key role in early defense events, which can reduce the damage and mortality caused by pathogens. In this context, the present review will discuss defense response proteins, which have been identified as PRs, with enzymatic action, including constitutive enzymes, β-1,3 glucanase, chitinase, peroxidase and ribonucleases. From the technological perspective, we discuss the advances of the last decade applied to the study of these enzymes, which are important in the early events of higher plant defense against phytopathogens.

Abstract
The present study reported the improvement of biological treatment for the removal of recalcitrant dyes including aniline blue, reactive black 5, orange II, and crystal violet in contaminated water. The biodegradation efficiency of Fusarium oxysporum was significantly enhanced by the addition of mediators and by adjusting the biomass density and nutrient composition. A supplementation of 1% glucose in culture medium improved the biodegradation efficiency of aniline blue, reactive black 5, orange II, and crystal violet by 2.24, 1.51, 4.46, and 2.1 folds, respectively. Meanwhile, the addition of mediators to culture medium significantly increased the percentages of total removal for aniline blue, reactive black 5, orange II, and crystal violet, reaching 86.07%, 68.29%, 76.35%, and 95.3%, respectively. Interestingly, the fungal culture supplemented with 1% remazol brilliant blue R boosted the biodegradation up to 97.06%, 89.86%, 91.38%, and 86.67% for aniline blue, reactive black 5, orange II, and crystal violet, respectively. Under optimal culture conditions, the fungal culture could degrade these synthetic dyes concentration up to 104 mg/L. The present study demonstrated that different recalcitrant dye types can be efficiently degraded using microorganism such as F. oxysporum.

Abstract
Environmental contamination by phenol has been reported in both aquatic and atmospheric environments. This study aimed to separate and purify the peroxidase enzyme from bacteria that degrade phenol from wastewater sources. An enrichment culture of MSM was used to screen 25 bacterial isolates from different water samples for peroxidase production, six of the isolates exhibited high levels of peroxidase enzyme activity. Qualitative analysis of peroxidase revealed that isolate No. 4 had the highest halo zones (Poly-R478: 14.79 ± 0.78 mm, Azure B: 8.81 ± 0.61 mm). The promising isolate was identified as Bacillus aryabhattai B8W22 by 16S rRNA gene sequencing with accession number OP458197. As carbon and nitrogen sources, mannitol and sodium nitrate were utilized to achieve maximum peroxidase production. A 30-h incubation period was used with pH 6.0, 30 °C, mannitol, and sodium nitrate, respectively, for maximal production of peroxidase. Purified peroxidase enzyme showed 0.012 U/mg specific activity, and SDS-PAGE analysis indicated a molecular weight of 66 kDa. The purified enzyme exhibits maximum activity and thermal stability at pH values of 4.0 and 8.0, respectively, with maximum activity at 30 °C and complete thermal stability at 40 °C. In the purified enzyme, the Km value was 6.942 mg/ml and the Vmax value was 4.132 mol/ml/hr, respectively. The results demonstrated that Bacillus aryabhattai B8W22 has promising potential for degrading phenols from various phenol-polluted wastewater sources.

Abstract
Il-MnP1, a short-type manganese peroxidase from Irpex lacteus F17, can oxidize some substrates in the absence of Mn2+, but the catalysis was much lower than in the presence of Mn2+. Here, we report a mutant R70V/E166A of Il-MnP1 with some unique properties, which possessed clearly higher catalysis for the decolorization of anthraquinone and azo dyes in the absence of Mn2+ than that of Il-MnP1. Importantly, the optimum pH of R70V/E166A for decolorization of anthraquinone dyes (Reactive Blue 19, RB19) was 6.5, and the mutant achieved high decolorization activities in the range of pH 4.0-7.0, whereas Il-MnP1 only showed decolorization for RB19 at pH 3.5-4.0. In addition, the optimum H2O2 concentration of R70V/E166A for RB19 decolorization was eight times that of Il-MnP1 and the H2O2 stability has improved 1.4 times compared with Il-MnP1. Furthermore, Mn2+ competitively inhibited the oxidation of RB19 by R70V/E166A, explaining the higher catalytic activity of the mutant R70V/E166A in the absence of Mn2+. Molecular docking results suggested that RB19 binds to the distal side of the heme plane in mutant R70V/E166A, which extended from the heme δ-side to the heme γ-side, and close to the mutated residues of R70V and E166A, whereas RB19 could not access the heme pocket of Il-MnP1 due to the steric hindrance of the side-chain group of Arg 70. Thus, this study constructed a useful mutant R70V/E166A and analyzed its higher Mn2+-independent activity, which is very important for better understanding the Mn2+-independent catalytic mechanism for short manganese peroxidases. KEY POINTS: • The mutant R70V/E166A of atypical MnP1 of I. lacteus F17 shows unique catalytic properties. • At pH 6.5, the R70V/E166A had a strong ability to decolorize anthraquinone dyes in the absence of Mn2+. • The binding sites of Reactive Blue 19 in mutant R70V/E166A were elucidated.

Abstract
A reliance on fossil fuel has led to the increased emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs). The excessive consumption of raw materials today makes the search for sustainable resources more pressing than ever. Technical lignins are mainly used in low-value applications such as heat and electricity generation. Green enzyme-based modifications of technical lignin have generated a number of functional lignin-based polymers, fillers, coatings, and many other applications and materials. These bio-modified technical lignins often display similar properties in terms of their durability and elasticity as fossil-based materials while also being biodegradable. Therefore, it is possible to replace a wide range of environmentally damaging materials with lignin-based ones. By researching publications from the last 20 years focusing on the latest findings utilizing databases, a comprehensive collection on this topic was crafted. This review summarizes the recent progress made in enzymatically modifying technical lignins utilizing laccases, peroxidases, and lipases. The underlying enzymatic reaction mechanisms and processes are being elucidated and the application possibilities discussed. In addition, the environmental assessment of novel technical lignin-based products as well as the developments, opportunities, and challenges are highlighted.

Abstract
In recent years, biofuel or biogas have become the primary source of bio-energy, providing an alternative to conventionally used energy that can meet the growing energy demand for people all over the world while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Enzyme hydrolysis in bioethanol production is a critical step in obtaining sugars fermented during the final fermentation process. More efficient enzymes are being researched to provide a more cost-effective technique during enzymatic hydrolysis. The exploitation of microbial catabolic biochemical reactions to produce electric energy can be used for complex renewable biomasses and organic wastes in microbial fuel cells. In hydrolysis methods, a variety of diverse enzyme strategies are used to promote efficient bioethanol production from various lignocellulosic biomasses like agricultural wastes, wood feedstocks, and sea algae. This paper investigates the most recent enzyme hydrolysis pathways, microbial fermentation, microbial fuel cells, and anaerobic digestion in the manufacture of bioethanol/bioenergy from lignocellulose biomass.

Abstract
Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-degrading strains resuscitated by resuscitation promoting factor (Rpf) enlarged pure degraders to screen effective bio-inoculants for soil bioaugmentation. In this study, whole-genome analysis and PCB-degrading performance of a resuscitated strain LS1 were investigated. Importantly, the persistence and the physiological response of soil-inoculated LS1 were checked. The results indicate that the Bacillus sp. strain LS1 possessed the potential to degrade polycyclic aromatic compounds. LS1 exhibited better performance in degrading PCBs 18 and 52, but lower PCB 77 degradation capability. At PCBs concentration of 10 mg/L, the degradation efficiencies of PCBs 18, 52 and 77 within 96 h were 62.8 %, 59.6 % and 39.8 %, respectively. Combined the bph genes and metabolites detected, as well as the genes found in the genome, the abilities of LS1 for oxidative dehalogenation and mineralization of PCBs via HOPDA-benzoate-protocatechuate-β-ketoadipate pathway were determined. Notably, LS1 can still maintain survival and culturable state after inoculation into PCB-contaminated soil for 70 days. This is the first report to demonstrate the fate of resuscitated strain when used as soil bio-inoculant, which revealed the necessity and feasibility of using resuscitated strains to enhance bioremediation of PCB-contaminated soils.

Abstract
As typical copper-based-manganese delafossites, CuMnO2 nanoflakes (CuMnO2 NFs) display excellent light absorption capacity, showing great promise for facile regulation of catalysis reactions by light stimulation. Here, we report that the as-prepared CuMnO2 NFs possess intrinsic peroxidase- and oxidase-like activities, which are capable of catalyzing the oxidation of the enzymatic substrate 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of H2O2 or O2, respectively. Additionally, CuMnO2 NFs exhibit significant light-enhanced dual enzyme-like performance (peroxidase and oxidase) for accelerating the oxidation of TMB, owing to a much greater light-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) yield. The light-induced hydroxyl radicals (·OH) and superoxide radicals (O2•-) hold the key to rapidly catalyzing the oxidation of TMB into the two-electron charge transfer complex diamine, subsequently improving the oxidation capacity and enzyme-like activity of CuMnO2 NFs as peroxidase and oxidase mimics. These findings confirm an efficient way to improve the enzyme-like performance of nanozymes and regulate the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level by simply employing irradiated light. This work also provides a general method for constructing external field-modulated smart nanozymes and an insightful approach to the corresponding enzyme-mimetic reaction mechanism.

Abstract
White-rot fungi (WRF) have the ability to synthetize extracellular enzymes that could degrade recalcitrant pollutants. The aim of this work was to evaluate the use of P. chrysosporium to treat a biologically and physically pre-treated landfill leachate which high load of refractory compounds (COD>1000 mg/L, BOD5<50 mg/L) in order to reduce COD and colour. Batch tests were carried out at 26 °C and 135 rpm for 15 days. The soluble chemical oxygen demand (sCOD), soluble biological oxygen demand (sBOD5) and colour, as well as the lignin peroxidase (LiP) and manganese peroxidase (MnP) enzymatic activities were analysed. Besides, the effects of different operating conditions, i.e., pH control, permeate dilution and supplementation, on treatment efficacy were investigated. The control of pH was shown to be key for fungal treatment. In addition, it was found that the addition of carbon and nitrogen sources improved the enzymatic synthesis and the removals of sCOD and colour. Data here obtained open the possibility of using fungi for reducing the amount of recalcitrant pollutants still present in treated landfill leachates or similar effluents.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are environmentally recalcitrant contaminants formed from naturally or incomplete combustion of organic materials and some of them are difficult to degrade due to their hydrophobicity and persistency. Benzo [a]pyrene (BaP), is one of PAHs that having five fused benzene and reported as mutagenic, carcinogenic and teratogenic compounds. Biodegradation is one of promising techniques due to its relatively low economic cost and microorganism is a natural capacity to consume hydrocarbons. In this investigation, Pleurotus eryngii F032 was grown in 20 mL of modified mineral salt broth (MSB) supplemented with BaP under static and agitated culture. Within 20 days, static culture removed 59% of BaP, whereas agitated culture removed the highest amount (73%). To expedite BaP elimination, the mechanism and behavior of BaP biosorption and biotransformation by Pleurotus eryngii F032 were additionally examined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). The optimal conditions for P. eryngii F032 to eliminate BaP were 25 °C, a C/N ratio of 8, pH 3 and 0.2% inoculum concentration. At an initial BaP content of 10 mg/L, more than 50% was effectively eliminated within 20 days under these conditions. Salinity, glucose, and rhamnolipids were the most important factors impacting BaP biodegradation. GC-MS found degradation products such as BaP-3,6-quinone, indicating plausible metabolic routes. Finally, it may be assumed that the primary mechanism by which white-rot fungi eliminate BaP is by the utilization of biotransformation enzymes such as laccase to mineralize the PAHs. Hence, Pleurotus eryngii F032 could be an ideal candidate to treat PAHs contaminated soils.

Abstract
Biocatalysts, including live microbial cells/enzymes, have been considered a predominant and advantageous tool for effectively transforming biomass into biofuels and valued biochemicals. However, high production costs, separation, and reusability limit its practical application. Immobilization of single and multi-enzymes by employing different nano-supports have gained massive attention because of its elevated exterior domain and high enzymatic performance. Application of nanobiocatalyst can overcome the drawbacks mainly, stability and reusability, thus reflecting the importance of biomass-based biorefinery to make it profitable and sustainable. This review provides an in-depth, comprehensive analysis of nanobiocatalysts systems concerning nano supports and biocatalytic performance characteristics. Furthermore, the effects of nanobiocatalyst on waste biomass to biofuel and valued bioproducts in the biorefinery approach and their critical assessment are discussed. Lastly, this review elaborates commercialization and market outlooks of the bioconversion process using nanobiocatalyst, followed by different strategies to overcome the limitations and future research directions on nanobiocatalytic-based industrial bioprocesses.

Abstract
In a striking similarity to plant chloroplasts, the cyanobacterium Anabaena displays very low catalase activity, but expresses several peroxiredoxins (Prxs), including the typical 2-Cys-Prx (annotated as Alr4641), that detoxify H2 O2 . Due to the presence of multiple Prxs, the precise contribution of Alr4641 to the oxidative stress response of Anabaena is not well-defined. To unambiguously assess its in vivo function, the Alr4641 protein was knocked down using the CRISPRi approach in Anabaena PCC 7120. The knockdown strain (An-KD4641), which showed over 85% decrease in the content of Alr4641, was viable, but grew slower than the control strain (An-dCas9). An-KD4641 showed elevated levels of reactive oxygen species and the expression of several redox-responsive genes was analogous to that of An-dCas9 subjected to oxidative stress. The knockdown strain displayed reduced filament size, altered thylakoid ultrastructure, a marked drop in the ratio of phycocyanin to chlorophyll a and decreased photosynthetic parameters compared to An-dCas9. In comparison to the control strain, exposure to H2 O2 had a more severe effect on the photosynthetic parameters or survival of An-KD4641. Thus, in the absence of adequate catalase activity, 2-Cys-Prx appears to be the principal Prx responsible for maintaining redox homoeostasis in diverse photosynthetic systems ranging from chloroplasts to cyanobacteria.

Abstract
Biomass amendments have numerous benefits in reducing antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the soil environment. However, there are debatable outcomes regarding the effect of raw biomass and its pyrolytic biochar on ARGs, and the exploration of the influence mechanism is still in infancy. Herein, we investigated the changes in soil ARGs under the organic fertilizer application with coconut shell and its biochar. The results showed that the coconut shell biochar could effectively diminish ARGs, with 61.54% reduction in target ARGs, which was higher than that adding raw coconut shells (p < 0.05). Structural equation modeling indicated that ARGs were significantly affected by changes in environmental factors, mainly by modulating bacterial communities. Neutral community model and network analysis demonstrated that the coconut shell biochar can restrict the species dispersal, thereby mitigating the spread of ARGs. Also, coconut shell biochar exhibited strong adsorption, with a large specific surface area (476.66 m2/g) and pores (pore diameter approximately 1.207 nm, total pore volume: 0.2451 m3/g), which markedly enhanced soil heterogeneity that created a barrier to limit the resistant bacteria proliferation and ARGs propagation. The outcome gives an approach to control the development of ARGs after organic fertilizer application into soil.

Abstract
The bioremediation of emerging recalcitrant pollutants in wastewater via enzyme biotechnology has been evolving as cost-effective with an input of low-energy technological approach. However, the enzyme based bioremediation technology is still not fully developed at a commercial level. The oxidoreductases being the domineering biocatalysts are promising candidates for wastewater treatments. Henceforth, comprehending their global market and biotransformation efficacy is mandatory for establishing these techno-economic bio-enzymes in commercial scale. The biocatalytic strategy can be established as a combinatorial approach with existing treatment technology to achieve towering bioremediation and effective removal of emerging pollutants from wastewater. This review provides a novel insight on the toxicological xenobiotics released from industries such as paper and pulps, soap and detergents, pharmaceuticals, textiles, pesticides, explosives and aptitude of peroxidases, nitroreductase and cellobiose dehydrogenase in their bio-based treatment. Moreover, the review comprehensively covers environmental relevance of wastewater pollution and the critical challenges based on remediation achieved through biocatalysts for future prospectives.

[PMID: 35633727 PMCID: PMC9133625 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.850917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Plant-associated microbes play important roles in plant health and disease. Mortierella is often found in the plant rhizosphere, and its possible functions are not well known, especially in medical plants. Mortierella alpina isolated from ginseng soil was used to investigate its effects on plant disease. The promoting properties and interactions with rhizospheric microorganisms were investigated in a medium. Further, a pot experiment was conducted to explore its effects on ginseng root rot disease. Physicochemical properties, high-throughput sequencing, network co-occurrence, distance-based redundancy analysis (db-RDA), and correlation analysis were used to evaluate their effects on the root rot pathogen. The results showed that Mortierella alpina YW25 had a high indoleacetic acid production capacity, and the maximum yield was 141.37 mg/L at 4 days. The growth of M. alpina YW25 was inhibited by some probiotics (Bacillus, Streptomyces, Brevibacterium, Trichoderma, etc.) and potential pathogens (Cladosporium, Aspergillus, etc.), but it did not show sensitivity to the soil-borne pathogen Fusarium oxysporum. Pot experiments showed that M. alpina could significantly alleviate the diseases caused by F. oxysporum, and increased the available nitrogen and phosphorus content in rhizosphere soil. In addition, it enhanced the activities of soil sucrase and acid phosphatase. High-throughput results showed that the inoculation of M. alpina with F. oxysporum changed the microbial community structure of ginseng, stimulated the plant to recruit more plant growth-promoting bacteria, and constructed a more stable microbial network of ginseng root. In this study, we found and proved the potential of M. alpina as a biocontrol agent against F. oxysporum, providing a new idea for controlling soil-borne diseases of ginseng by regulating rhizosphere microorganisms.

Abstract
Herein, an Au nanoparticles-polydopamine-poly acrylic acid-graphene (Au NPs-PDA-PAA-graphene) multicomponent nanohybrid is fabricated by surface functionalization of graphene alongside extensive in-situ growth of Au nanoparticles. The as-obtained nanocomposite possesses good hydrophilicity, excellent biocompatibility and high biomolecules loading capacity, which acts as an ideal platform for enzyme modification. Considering this fact, Horseradish peroxidase is expressively immobilized upon Au NPs-PDA-PAA-graphene surface, in order to lay the foundations of a biosensor that is majorly based on enzymatic activity. The biosensor exhibits higher sensitivity towards the determination of H2O2 with linearity ranging from 0.1 μm upto 20 mm, and the limit of detection going down to 0.02 μm. Encouraged by its acceptable electrocatalytic performance, this multicomponent system can also be easily employed for carrying out the real-time tracking of H2O2 coming out of Macrophage cells. Therefore, this work designs an extraordinarily updated platform for biosensing related applications, and also presents a reliable platform for the direct detection of H2O2in vivo and in vitro, which show great potential in bioelectroanalytical chemistry, cellular biology, and pathophysiology.
