Abstract
Among the various types of enzyme-based biosensors, sensors utilizing enzymes capable of direct electron transfer (DET) are recognized as the most ideal. However, only a limited number of redox enzymes are capable of DET with electrodes, that is, dehydrogenases harboring a subunit or domain that functions specifically to accept electrons from the redox cofactor of the catalytic site and transfer the electrons to the external electron acceptor. Such subunits or domains act as built-in mediators for electron transfer between enzymes and electrodes; consequently, such enzymes enable direct electron transfer to electrodes and are designated as DET-type enzymes. DET-type enzymes fall into several categories, including redox cofactors of catalytic reactions, built-in mediators for DET with electrodes and by their protein hierarchic structures, DET-type oxidoreductases with oligomeric structures harboring electron transfer subunits, and monomeric DET-type oxidoreductases harboring electron transfer domains. In this review, we cover the science of DET-type oxidoreductases and their biomedical applications. First, we introduce the structural biology and current understanding of DET-type enzyme reactions. Next, we describe recent technological developments based on DET-type enzymes for biomedical applications, such as biosensors and biochemical energy harvesting for self-powered medical devices. Finally, after discussing how to further engineer and create DET-type enzymes, we address the future prospects for DET-type enzymes in biomedical engineering.

Abstract
Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is capable of direct electron transfer (DET) on electrodes and is a promising redox enzyme for bioelectrochemical applications. Its unique two-domain structure makes the function of CDH adsorbed on the surface of the electrode deeply affected by the external environment, such as ion species, strength, pH, and surface charge density. To date, however, the exact mechanism of how the external environment tailors the structure and dynamics of CDH adsorbed on the electrode surface still remains poorly understood. Here, multiscale simulations were performed to look for insight into the effect of Na+ and Ca2+ ions on the activation of CDH on oppositely charged self-assembled monolayer (NH2-SAM and COOH-SAM) surfaces with different surface charge densities (SCDs). Both Na+ and Ca2+ can promote CDH conformation switch from the open state to the closed state, while the promotion effect of Ca2+ is stronger than that of Na+ at the same conditions. However, the high ionic strength (IS) of Ca2+ renders the cytochrome (CYT) domain of CDH away from the NH2-SAM with low SCD. In contrast, whatever the IS, the NH2-SAM surface with high SCD can not only enhance the CYT-surface interaction but also achieve a closed-state conformation due to a similar role of Ca2+. Overall, this study gains molecular-level insights into the role of ion species and surface charge in modulating the structure and conformation of CDH on the SAM surface, thereby tailoring its activity.

Abstract
Research on enzymes for lignocellulose biomass degradation has progressively increased in recent years due to the interest in taking advantage of this natural resource. Among these enzymes are the lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) that oxidatively depolymerize crystalline cellulose using a reactive oxygen species generated in a reduced mono‑copper active site. The copper site comprises of a highly conserved histidine-brace, providing three equatorial nitrogen ligands, whereas less conserved residues close to the copper contribute to shaping and confining the site. The catalytic copper site is exposed to the solvent and to the crystalline substrates, and as so, the influence of the copper environment on LPMO properties, including the redox potential, is of great interest. In the current work, a direct electrochemical study of an LPMO (ScLPMO10C) was conducted allowing to retrieve kinetic and thermodynamic data associated with the redox transition in the catalytic centre. Moreover, two residues that do not bind to the copper but shape the copper sites were mutated, and the properties of the mutants were compared with those of the wild-type enzyme. The direct electrochemical studies, using cyclic voltammetry, yielded redox potentials in the +200 mV range, well in line with LPMO redox potentials determined by other methods. Interestingly, while the mutations hardly affected the formal redox potential of the enzyme, they drastically affected the reactivity of the copper site and enzyme functionality.

Abstract
Enzymatic biofuel cells utilize oxidoreductases as highly specific and highly active electrocatalysts to convert a fuel and an oxidant even in complex biological matrices like hydrolysates or physiological fluids into electric energy. The hemoflavoenzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase is investigated as a versatile bioelectrocatalyst for the anode reaction of biofuel cells, because it is robust, converts a range of different carbohydrates, and can transfer electrons to the anode by direct electron transfer or via redox mediators. The versatility of cellobiose dehydrogenase has led to the development of various electrode modifications to create biofuel cells and biosupercapacitors that are capable to power small electronic devices like biosensors and connect them wireless to a receiver.

Abstract
A new dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP) was discovered through a data mining workflow based on HMMER software and profile Hidden Markov Model (HMM) using a dataset of 1200 genomes originated from a Actinobacteria strain collection isolated from Trondheim fjord. Instead of the conserved GXXDG motif known for Dyp-type peroxidases, the enzyme contains a new conserved motif EXXDG which has been not reported before. The enzyme can oxidize an anthraquinone dye Remazol Brilliant Blue R (Reactive Blue 19) and other phenolic compounds such as ferulic acid, sinapic acid, caffeic acid, 3-methylcatechol, dopamine hydrochloride, and tannic acid. The acidic pH optimum (3 to 4) and the low temperature optimum (25 °C) were confirmed using both biochemical and electrochemical assays. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters associated with the catalytic redox center were attained by electrochemistry.

Abstract
The accurate determination of analyte concentrations with selective, fast, and robust methods is the key for process control, product analysis, environmental compliance, and medical applications. Enzyme-based biosensors meet these requirements to a high degree and can be operated with simple, cost efficient, and easy to use devices. This review focuses on enzymes capable of direct electron transfer (DET) to electrodes and also the electrode materials which can enable or enhance the DET type bioelectrocatalysis. It presents amperometric biosensors for the quantification of important medical, technical, and environmental analytes and it carves out the requirements for enzymes and electrode materials in DET-based third generation biosensors. This review critically surveys enzymes and biosensors for which DET has been reported. Single- or multi-cofactor enzymes featuring copper centers, hemes, FAD, FMN, or PQQ as prosthetic groups as well as fusion enzymes are presented. Nanomaterials, nanostructured electrodes, chemical surface modifications, and protein immobilization strategies are reviewed for their ability to support direct electrochemistry of enzymes. The combination of both biosensor elements-enzymes and electrodes-is evaluated by comparison of substrate specificity, current density, sensitivity, and the range of detection.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are biopolymers composed of simple sugars like glucose, galactose, mannose, fructose, etc. The major natural sources for the production of polysaccharides include plants and microorganisms. In the present work, four bacterial and two fungal polysaccharides (PS or EPS) were used for the modification and preservation of Pycnoporus sanguineus cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) activity. It was found that the presence of polysaccharide preparations clearly enhanced the stability of cellobiose dehydrogenase compared to the control value (4 °C). The highest stabilization effect was observed for CDH modified with Rh110EPS. Changes in the optimum pH in the samples of CDH incubated with the chosen polysaccharide modifiers were evidenced as well. The most significant effect was observed for Rh24EPS and Cu139PS (pH 3.5). Cyclic voltammetry used for the analysis of electrochemical parameters of modified CDH showed the highest peak values after 30 days of incubation with polysaccharides at 4 °C. In summary, natural polysaccharides seem to be an effective biotechnological tool for the modification of CDH activity to increase the possibilities of its practical applications in many fields of industry.

Abstract
![]()
The natural function of cellobiose
dehydrogenase (CDH) to donate
electrons from its catalytic flavodehydrogenase (DH) domain via its
cytochrome (CYT) domain to lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO)
is an example of a highly efficient extracellular electron transfer
chain. To investigate the function of the CYT domain movement in the
two occurring electron transfer steps, two CDHs from the ascomycete Neurospora crassa (NcCDHIIA and NcCDHIIB) and five chimeric CDH enzymes created by domain
swapping were studied in combination with the fungus’ own LPMOs
(NcLPMO9C and NcLPMO9F). Kinetic
and electrochemical methods and hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry
were used to study the domain movement, interaction, and electron
transfer kinetics. Molecular docking provided insights into the protein–protein
interface, the orientation of domains, and binding energies. We find
that the first, interdomain electron transfer step from the catalytic
site in the DH domain to the CYT domain depends on steric and electrostatic
interface complementarity and the length of the protein linker between
both domains but not on the redox potential difference between the
FAD and heme b cofactors. After CYT reduction, a
conformational change of CDH from its closed state to an open state
allows the second, interprotein electron transfer (IPET) step from
CYT to LPMO to occur by direct interaction of the b-type heme and the type-2 copper center. Chimeric CDH enzymes favor
the open state and achieve higher IPET rates by exposing the heme b cofactor to LPMO. The IPET, which is influenced by interface
complementarity and the heme b redox potential, is
very efficient with bimolecular rates between 2.9 × 105 and 1.1 × 106 M–1 s–1.

Abstract
Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is a flavocytochrome with a history of bioelectrochemical research dating back to 1992. During the years, it has been shown to be capable of mediated electron transfer (MET) and direct electron transfer (DET) to a variety of electrodes. This versatility of CDH originates from the separation of the catalytic flavodehydrogenase domain and the electron transferring cytochrome domain. This uncoupling of the catalytic reaction from the electron transfer process allows the application of CDH on many different electrode materials and surfaces, where it shows robust DET. Recent X-ray diffraction and small angle scattering studies provided insights into the structure of CDH and its domain mobility, which can change between a closed-state and an open-state conformation. This structural information verifies the electron transfer mechanism of CDH that was initially established by bioelectrochemical methods. A combination of DET and MET experiments has been used to investigate the catalytic mechanism and the electron transfer process of CDH and to deduce a protein structure comprising of mobile domains. Even more, electrochemical methods have been used to study the redox potentials of the FAD and the haem b cofactors of CDH or the electron transfer rates. These electrochemical experiments, their results and the application of the characterised CDHs in biosensors, biofuel cells and biosupercapacitors are combined with biochemical and structural data to provide a thorough overview on CDH as versatile bioelectrocatalyst.

Abstract
Covalent coupling between a surface exposed cysteine residue and maleimide groups was used to immobilize variants of Myriococcum thermophilum cellobiose dehydrogenase (MtCDH) at multiwall carbon nanotube electrodes. By introducing individual cysteine residues at particular places on the surface of the flavodehydrogenase domain of the flavocytochrome we are able to immobilize the different variants in different orientations. Our results show that direct electron transfer (DET) occurs exclusively through the haem b cofactor and that the redox potential of the haem is unaffected by the orientation of the enzyme. Electron transfer between the haem and the electrode is fast in all cases and at high glucose concentrations the catalytic currents are limited by the rate of inter-domain electron transfer (IET) between the FAD and the haem. Using ferrocene carboxylic acid as a mediator we find that the total amount of immobilized enzyme is 4 to 5 times greater than the amount of enzyme that participates in DET. The role of IET in the overall DET catalysed oxidation was also demonstrated by the effects of changing Ca2+ concentration and by proteolytic cleavage of the cytochrome domain on the DET and MET currents.

Thermodynamic and kinetic properties of the outer membrane cytochrome OmcF, a key protein for extracellular electron transfer in Geobacter sulfurreducens. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-BIOENERGETICS 2018; 1859:1132-1137. [PMID: 30048624 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbabio.2018.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2018] [Revised: 07/17/2018] [Accepted: 07/22/2018] [Indexed: 10/28/2022]
Abstract
Gene knock-out studies on Geobacter sulfurreducens have shown that the monoheme c-type cytochrome OmcF is essential for the extracellular electron transfer pathways involved in the reduction of iron and uranium oxy-hydroxides, as well as, on electricity production in microbial fuel cells. A detailed electrochemical characterization of OmcF was performed for the first time, allowing attaining kinetics and thermodynamic data. The heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant was determined at pH 7 (0.16 ± 0.01 cm s-1) indicating that the protein displays high electron transfer efficiency compared to other monoheme cytochromes. The pH dependence of the redox potential indicates that the protein has an important redox-Bohr effect in the physiological pH range for G. sulfurreducens growth. The analysis of the structures of OmcF allowed us to assign the redox-Bohr centre to the side chain of His47 residue and its pKa values in the reduced and oxidized states were determined (pKox = 6.73; pKred = 7.55). The enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy associated with the redox transaction were calculated, pointing the reduced form of the cytochrome as the most favourable. The data obtained indicate that G. sulfurreducens cells evolved to warrant a down-hill electron transfer from the periplasm to the outer-membrane associated cytochrome OmcF.

Abstract
Enzymatic bioelectrocatalysis is being increasingly exploited to better understand oxidoreductase enzymes, to develop minimalistic yet specific biosensor platforms, and to develop alternative energy conversion devices and bioelectrosynthetic devices for the production of energy and/or important chemical commodities. In some cases, these enzymes are able to electronically communicate with an appropriately designed electrode surface without the requirement of an electron mediator to shuttle electrons between the enzyme and electrode. This phenomenon has been termed direct electron transfer or direct bioelectrocatalysis. While many thorough studies have extensively investigated this fascinating feat, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate desirable enzymatic bioelectrocatalysis from electrocatalysis deriving from inactivated enzyme that may have also released its catalytic cofactor. This article will review direct bioelectrocatalysis of several oxidoreductases, with an emphasis on experiments that provide support for direct bioelectrocatalysis versus denatured enzyme or dissociated cofactor. Finally, this review will conclude with a series of proposed control experiments that could be adopted to discern successful direct electronic communication of an enzyme from its denatured counterpart.

Abstract
Efficient conjugation between biomolecules and electrode materials is one of the main challenges in the field of biosensors. Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is a monomeric enzyme, which consists of two separate domains: one catalytic dehydrogenase domain (DHCDH ) carrying strongly bound flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) in the active site and a cytochrome domain (CYTCDH ) carrying a b-type heme connected by a flexible linker region. Herein, we report on the development of a lactose biosensor, based on direct electron transfer (DET) from CDH from Phanerochaete sordida (PsCDH) electrostatically attached onto polyethyleneimine-stabilized gold nanoparticles (PEI@AuNPs) used to cover a conventional polycrystalline solid gold disk electrode. PEI@AuNPs were synthesized in aqueous solution using PEI as reducing agent for AuIII and as stabilizer for the nanoparticles. The heterogeneous electron-transfer (ET) rate (ks ) for the redox reaction of immobilized PsCDH at the modified electrodes was calculated based on the Laviron theory and was found to be (39.6±2.5) s-1 . The proposed lactose biosensor exhibits good long term stability as well as high and reproducible sensitivity to lactose with a response time less than 5 s and a linear range from 1 to 100 μm.

Abstract
In the present work, platinum and palladium nanoparticles (PtNPs and PdNPs) were decorated on the surface of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by a simple thermal decomposition method. The prepared nanohybrids, PtNPs-MWCNTs and PdNPs-MWCNTs, were cast on the surface of spectrographic graphite electrodes and then Phanerochaete chrysosporium cellobiose dehydrogenase (PcCDH) was adsorbed on the modified layer. Direct electron transfer between PcCDH and the nanostructured modified electrodes was studied using flow injection amperometry and cyclic voltammetry. The maximum current responses (Imax) and the apparent Michaelis-Menten constants (K) for the different PcCDH modified electrodes were calculated by fitting the data to the Michaelis-Menten equation and compared. The sensitivity towards lactose was 3.07 and 3.28 μA mM(-1) at the PcCDH/PtNPs-MWCNTs/SPGE and PcCDH/PdNPs-MWCNTs/SPGE electrodes, respectively, which were higher than those measured at the PcCDH/MWCNTs/SPGE (2.60 μA mM(-1)) and PcCDH/SPGE (0.92 μA mM(-1)). The modified electrodes were additionally tested as bioanodes for biofuel cell applications.

Abstract
The flavocytochrome cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is a versatile biorecognition element capable of detecting carbohydrates as well as quinones and catecholamines. In addition, it can be used as an anode biocatalyst for enzymatic biofuel cells to power miniaturised sensor-transmitter systems. Various electrode materials and designs have been tested in the past decade to utilize and enhance the direct electron transfer (DET) from the enzyme to the electrode. Additionally, mediated electron transfer (MET) approaches via soluble redox mediators and redox polymers have been pursued. Biosensors for cellobiose, lactose and glucose determination are based on CDH from different fungal producers, which show differences with respect to substrate specificity, pH optima, DET efficiency and surface binding affinity. Biosensors for the detection of quinones and catecholamines can use carbohydrates for analyte regeneration and signal amplification. This review discusses different approaches to enhance the sensitivity and selectivity of CDH-based biosensors, which focus on (1) more efficient DET on chemically modified or nanostructured electrodes, (2) the synthesis of custom-made redox polymers for higher MET currents and (3) the engineering of enzymes and reaction pathways. Combination of these strategies will enable the design of sensitive and selective CDH-based biosensors with reduced electrode size for the detection of analytes in continuous on-site and point-of-care applications.

Abstract
Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is a monomeric extracellular flavocytochrome composed of a catalytic dehydrogenase domain (DH(CDH)) containing flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), a cytochrome domain (CYT(CDH)) containing heme b, and a linker region connecting the two domains. In this work, the effect of deglycosylation on the electrochemical properties of CDH from Phanerochaete chrysosporium (PcCDH) and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora (CsCDH) is presented. All the glycosylated and deglycosylated enzymes show direct electron transfer (DET) between the CYT(CDH) and the electrode. Graphite electrodes modified with deglycosylated PcCDH (dPcCDH) and CsCDH (dCsCDH) have a 40-65% higher I(max) value in the presence of substrate than electrodes modified with their glycosylated counterparts. CsCDH trapped under a permselective membrane showed similar changes on gold electrodes protected by a thiol-based self-assembled monolayer (SAM), in contrast to PcCDH for which deglycosylation did not exhibit any different electrocatalytical response on SAM-modified gold electrodes. Glycosylated PcCDH was found to have a 30% bigger hydrodynamic radius than dPcCDH using dynamic light scattering. The basic bioelectrochemistry as well as the bioelectrocatalytic properties are presented.

Abstract
Achieving efficient electrochemical communication between redox enzymes and various electrode materials is one of the main challenges in bioelectrochemistry and is of great importance for developing electronic applications. Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is an extracellular flavocytochrome composed of a catalytic FAD containing dehydrogenase domain (DH(CDH)), a heme b containing cytochrome domain (CYT(CDH)), and a flexible linker region connecting the two domains. Efficient direct electron transfer (DET) of CDH from the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium (PcCDH) covalently attached to mixed self-assembled monolayer (SAM) modified gold nanoparticle (AuNP) electrode is presented. The thiols used were as follows: 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP), 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA), 4-mercaptophenol (4-MP), 11-mercapto-1-undecanamine (MUNH(2)), 11-mercapto-1-undecanoic acid (MUCOOH), and 11-mercapto-1-undecanol (MUOH). A covalent linkage between PcCDH and 4-ATP or MUNH(2) in the mixed SAMs was formed using glutaraldehyde as cross-linker. The covalent immobilization and the surface coverage of PcCDH were confirmed with surface plasmon resonance (SPR). To improve current density, AuNPs were cast on the top of polycrystalline gold electrodes. For all the immobilized PcCDH modified AuNPs electrodes, cyclic voltammetry exhibited clear electrochemical responses of the CYT(CDH) with fast electron transfer (ET) rates in the absence of substrate (lactose), and the formal potential was evaluated to be +162 mV vs NHE at pH 4.50. The standard ET rate constant (k(s)) was estimated for the first time for CDH and was found to be 52.1, 59.8, 112, and 154 s(-1) for 4-ATP/4-MBA, 4-ATP/4-MP, MUNH(2)/MUCOOH, and MUNH(2)/MUOH modified electrodes, respectively. At all the mixed SAM modified AuNP electrodes, PcCDH showed DET only via the CYT(CDH). No DET communication between the DH(CDH) domain and the electrode was found. The current density for lactose oxidation was remarkably increased by introduction of the AuNPs. The 4-ATP/4-MBA modified AuNPs exhibited a current density up to 30 μA cm(-2), which is ∼70 times higher than that obtained for a 4-ATP/4-MBA modified polycrystalline gold electrode. The results provide insight into fundamental electrochemical properties of CDH covalently immobilized on gold electrodes and promote further applications of CDHs for biosensors, biofuel cells, and bioelectrocatalysis.

Abstract
Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is capable of direct electron transfer (DET) on various carbon and thiol-modified gold electrodes. As a result, these systems have been utilized as biocatalyst in biosensors and biofuel cell anodes. Class I CDHs, from basidiomycetous fungi, are highly specific to cellulose or lactose, and DET is only observed at pH values below 5.5. To extend the applicability of CDH-based electrodes, the catalytic properties and the behavior on electrode surfaces of ascomycetous class II CDHs from Chaetomium attrobrunneum, Corynascus thermophilus, Dichomera saubinetii, Hypoxylon haematostroma, Neurospora crassa, and Stachybotrys bisbyi were investigated. We found that class II CDHs have diverse properties but generally show a lower substrate specificity than class I CDHs by converting also glucose and maltose. Intramolecular electron transfer (IET) and DET at neutral and alkaline pH were observed and elucidated by steady-state kinetics, pre-steady-state kinetics, and electrochemical measurements. The CDHs ability to interact with the electron acceptor cytochrome c and to communicate with electrode surfaces through DET at various pH conditions was used to classify the investigated enzymes. In combination with stopped-flow measurements, a model for the kinetics of the pH-dependent IET is developed. The efficient glucose turnover at neutral/alkaline pH makes some of these new CDHs potential candidates for glucose biosensors and biofuel cell anodes.

Abstract
The present study reports on the comparison of direct and mediated electron transfer pathways in the interaction of the fungal enzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) with the redox protein cytochrome c (cyt c) immobilised at a modified gold electrode surface. Two types of CDHs were chosen for this investigation: a basidiomycete (white rot) CDH from Trametes villosa and a recently discovered ascomycete from the thermophilic fungus Corynascus thermophilus. The choice was based on the pH-dependent interaction of these enzymes with cyt c in solution containing the substrate cellobiose (CB). Both enzymes show rather similar catalytic behaviour at lower pH, dominated by a direct electron exchange with the electrode. With increasing pH, however, also cyt c-mediated electron transfer becomes possible. The pH-dependent behaviour in the presence and in the absence of cyt c is analysed and the potential reaction mechanism for the two enzymes with a different pH-behaviour is discussed.

Abstract
![]()
One of the challenges in the field of biosensors and biofuel cells is to establish a highly efficient electron transfer rate between the active site of redox enzymes and electrodes to fully access the catalytic potential of the biocatalyst and achieve high current densities. We report on very efficient direct electron transfer (DET) between cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) from Phanerochaete sordida (PsCDH) and surface modified single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT). Sonicated SWCNTs were adsorbed on the top of glassy carbon electrodes and modified with aryl diazonium salts generated in situ from p-aminobenzoic acid and p-phenylenediamine, thus featuring at acidic pH (3.5 and 4.5) negative or positive surface charges. After adsorption of PsCDH, both electrode types showed excellent long-term stability and very efficient DET. The modified electrode presenting p-aminophenyl groups produced a DET current density of 500 μA cm−2 at 200 mV vs normal hydrogen reference electrode (NHE) in a 5 mM lactose solution buffered at pH 3.5. This is the highest reported DET value so far using a CDH modified electrode and comes close to electrodes using mediated electron transfer. Moreover, the onset of the electrocatalytic current for lactose oxidation started at 70 mV vs NHE, a potential which is 50 mV lower compared to when unmodified SWCNTs were used. This effect potentially reduces the interference by oxidizable matrix components in biosensors and increases the open circuit potential in biofuel cells. The stability of the electrode was greatly increased compared with unmodified but cross-linked SWCNTs electrodes and lost only 15% of the initial current after 50 h of constant potential scanning.

Abstract
The active site of cellobiose dehydrogenase from Phanerochaete chrysosporium is composed of two subsites, a catalytic C subsite and a substrate-binding B subsite. Based on the crystal structure of the enzyme with a cellobiose analogue, residue Glu279 was selected for site-directed mutagenesis studies. Substitution of Glu279 to Ala, Asn, and Asp had no effect on the expression of the protein in Pichia pastoris but completely abolished its enzymatic activity. Substitution of Glu279 to Gln drastically altered the enzyme's substrate specificity. While the wild-type cellobiose dehydrogenase efficiently oxidizes cellobiose and lactose, the Glu279Gln mutant retained most of its activity with cellobiose but was completely inactive with lactose. We generated structural models of the active site interacting with cellobiose and lactose to provide an interpretation of these results.

Abstract
Galactitol dehydrogenase (GatDH) from Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes in the presence of oxidized beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) the interconversion of various multivalent aliphatic alcohols to the corresponding ketones. The recombinant GatDH was provided with an N-terminal His(6)-tag to which distally up to three cysteine residues were attached. This protein construct maintained nearly full enzymatic activity, and it could be covalently immobilized via thiol bonds onto the surface of a gold electrode. Binding of GatDH onto the gold electrode was verified by SPR measurements, and residual enzyme activity was measured by cyclic voltammetry using 1,2-hexanediol as substrate, the cofactor NAD(+) and the redox mediator CTFM (4-carboxy-2,5,7-trinitrofluorenyliden-malonnitrile) in solute form. The results demonstrate the possibility of a directed functional immobilization of proteins on gold surfaces, which represents a proof-of-concept for the development of reactors for electrochemical synthon preparation using dehydrogenases.

Abstract
![]()
Thioredoxin reductases (TrxRs) are flavin-containing dithioloxidoreductases that couple reduction equivalents from the soluble NAD(P)H pool to the soluble protein thioredoxin (Trx). Previous crystallographic studies of the Escherichia coli enzyme (ecTrxR) have shown that low molecular weight TrxRs can adopt two distinct conformations: the first (FO) is required for the oxidation of the flavin cofactor and the generation of reduced Trx; the second (FR) is adopted for the reduction of the flavin by NAD(P)H. Here, protein electrochemistry has been used to interrogate the equilibrium between the oxidized and reduced conformations of the ecTrxR and a novel, low molecular weight TrxR from the thermophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum (taTrxR) that is characterized structurally and biochemically in the accompanying paper [Hernandez et al. (2008) Biochemistry 47, 9728−9737]. A reversible electrochemical response is observed that reveals a dynamic behavior dependent upon the temperature of the experiment. At low temperatures (283 K) a broad, quasi-reversible electrochemical envelope is observed centered at a value of ∼−300 mV and displaying a peak width of over 150 mV. The voltammetric response sharpens dramatically as the temperature increases, becoming much more reversible (as determined by peak separation and peak width). The overall potential and shape of the voltammetric data indicate that the flavin (FAD/FADH2) and disulfide/dithiol couples are very close in thermodynamic potentials, and the data are interpreted in terms of the model of two-state conformational change between flavin reducing (FR) and flavin oxidizing (FO) states, where the difference in potential for the flavin and disulfide cofactors must be within 40 mV of one another. In this model, the low temperature peak broadening is interpreted as an indication of a heterogeneous population of TrxR conformations that exist at low temperature; at higher temperatures, FO and FR conformers can rapidly interconvert, and voltammetry reports upon an average potential of the conformations.

Abstract
The present paper describes the principle and characteristics of a biosensor for lactose based on a third-generation design involving cellobiose dehydrogenase. As resulted from a previous comparative study (submitted manuscript), the novelty of this lactose biosensor is based on highly efficient direct electron transfer between two newly discovered cellobiose dehydrogenases (CDH), from the white rot fungi Trametes villosa and Phanerochaete sordida, and a solid spectrographic graphite electrode. CDH was immobilized on the electrode surface (0.073 cm2) by simple physical adsorption, and the CDH-modified electrode was next inserted into a wall-jet amperometric cell connected on-line to a flow injection setup (0.5 mL x min(-1)). The P. sordida CDH-based lactose biosensor, proved to be the better one, has a detection limit for lactose of 1 microM, a sensitivity of 1100 microA x mM(-1) x cm(-2), a response time of 4 s (the time required to obtain the maximum peak current), and a linear range from 1 to 100 microM lactose (correlation coefficient 0.998). The simplicity of construction and analytical characteristics make this CDH-based lactose biosensor an excellent alternative to previous lactose biosensors reported in the literature or commercially available. The CDH-lactose sensor was used to quantify the content of lactose in pasteurized milk, buttermilk, and low-lactose milk, using the standard addition method. No effects of the samples matrixes were observed. The operational stability of the sensor was tested for 11 h by continuous injection of 100 microM lactose (290 injections). The final signal of the sensor was maintained at 98% of its initial signal, with a low standard deviation of 1.72 (RSD 2.41%).

Abstract
This paper presents some functional differences as well as similarities observed when comparing the newly discovered cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) from Trametes villosa (T.v.) with the well-characterized one from Phanerochaete chrysosporium (P.c.). The enzymes were physically adsorbed on spectrographic graphite electrodes placed in an amperometric flow through cell connected to a flow system. In the case of T.v.-CDH-modified graphite electrodes, a high direct electron transfer (DET) current was registered at the polarized electrode in the presence of the enzyme substrate reflecting a very efficient internal electron transfer (IET) process between the reduced FAD-cofactor and the oxidized heme-cofactor. In the case of P.c.-CDH-modified graphite electrodes, the DET process is not as efficient, and the current will greatly increase in the presence of a mediator (mediated electron transfer, MET). As a consequence, when comparing the two types of enzyme-modified electrodes an inverted DET/MET ratio for T.v.-CDH is shown, in comparison with P.c.-CDH. The rates of the catalytic reaction were estimated to be comparable for both enzymes, by measuring the combined DET + MET currents. The inverted DET/MET ratio for T.v.-CDH-modified electrodes might suggest that probably there is a better docking between the two domains of this enzyme and that the linker region of P.c.-CDH might have an active role in modulating the rate of the IET (by changing the interdomain distance), with respect to pH. Based on the new properties of T.v.-CDH emphasized in the present study, an analytical application of a third-generation biosensor for lactose was recently published.

Abstract
A cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH)-modified graphite electrode was designed for amperometric detection of catecholamines in the flow injection mode, by their recycling between the graphite electrode (+300 mV vs Ag|AgCl) and the reduced FAD cofactor of adsorbed CDH, resulting in an amplified response signal. The high efficiency of the enzyme-catecholamine reaction leads to a detection limit below 1 nM and a sensitivity of 15.8 A.M(-1) x cm(-2) (approximately 1150 nA/microM) for noradrenaline, with a coverage of less than 2.5 microg of CDH adsorbed on the electrode surface (0.073 cm(2)). Working parameters such as pH, cellobiose concentration, carrier buffer, and applied potential were optimized, using hydroquinone as a model analyte. The sensitivity, linear range, and amplification factor can be modulated by the steady-state concentration of cellobiose in the flow buffer. The response of the sensor decreases only 2% when run continuously for 4 h in the flow injection mode. The response peak maximum is obtained within 6 s at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min, representing the time of the entire sample segment to pass the electrode. CDH enzymes from Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Sclerotium rolfsii were investigated, providing different characteristics of the sensor, with sensors made with CDH from P. chrysosporium being the better ones.

Abstract
Direct electrochemistry of heme multicofactor-containing enzymes, e.g., microbial theophylline oxidase (ThOx) and D-fructose dehydrogenase (FDH) from Gluconobacter industrius was studied on alkanethiol-modified gold electrodes and was compared with that of some previously studied complex heme enzymes, specifically, cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) and sulphite oxidase (SOx). The formal redox potentials for enzymes in direct electronic communication varied for ThOx from -112 to -101 mV (vs. Ag|AgCl), at pH 7.0, and for FDH from -158 to -89 mV, at pH 5.0 and pH 4.0, respectively, on differently charged alkanethiol layers. Direct and mediated by cytochrome c electrochemistry of FDH correlated with the existence of two active centres in the protein structure, i.e., the heme and the pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) prosthetic groups. The effect of the alkanethiols of different polarity and charge on the surface properties of the gold electrodes necessary for adsorption and orientation of ThOx, FDH, CDH and SOx, favourable for the efficient electrode-enzyme electron transfer reaction, is discussed.
