Abstract
Graphene (Gr) is a promising material for addressing microbially induced corrosion (MIC) issues that cause staggering economic losses, estimated at nearly $55 billion annually in the US alone. However, structural defects including edges, grain boundaries, and cracks can compromise its performance in aggressive biological environments. Owing to the technological relevance of nickel (Ni), its key roles in biological mechanisms, and the strong hybridization of d-electrons of Ni with Gr π-orbitals, we explore the effects of the key defects in Gr/Ni exposed to archetype sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB). Electrochemical and spectroscopy tests revealed that the grain boundaries play a stronger role than cracks. The edges and grain boundaries in as-grown Gr on Ni (dGr/Ni) aggravated corrosion by two-fold, while the cracks in the transferred counterpart that lacked these defects improved corrosion resistance by 2-fold. A combination of biotic and abiotic studies corroborated the unique roles of grain boundaries as sulfur reservoirs to promote the attachment of sessile SRB cells and subsequent redox reactions. Analysis of distinct biogenic products confirmed the role of grain boundaries on pitting corrosion. These insights can guide the rational design of graphene coatings specifically for biological environments prone to MIC.

Abstract
Sirtuin1 (SIRT1), an NAD+-dependent histone deacetylase, plays a crucial role in regulating molecular signaling pathways. Recently, inhibition of SIRT1 rather than its activation shows the therapeutic potential for central nervous system disorder, however, the discovered SIRT1 inhibitors remains limited. In this work, a dual recognition-based strategy was developed to screen SIRT1 inhibitors from natural resources in situ. This approach utilized a Ni-modified metal-organic framework (Ni@Tyr@UiO-66-NH2) along with cell lysate containing an engineered His-tagged SIRT1 protein, eliminating the need for purified proteins, pure compounds, and protein immobilization. The high-performance Ni@Tyr@UiO-66-NH2 was synthesized by modifying the surface of UiO-66-NH2 with Ni2+ ions to specifically capture His-tagged SIRT1 while persevering its enzyme activity. By employing dual recognition, in which Ni@Tyr@UiO-66-NH2 recognized SIRT1 and SIRT1 recognized its ligands, the process of identifying SIRT1 inhibitors from complex matrix was vastly streamlined. The developed method allowed the efficient discovery of 16 natural SIRT1 inhibitors from Chinese herbs. Among them, 6 compounds were fully characterized, and suffruticosol A was found to have an excellent IC50 value of 0.95 ± 0.12 μM. Overall, an innovative dual recognition-based strategy was proposed to efficiently identify SIRT1 inhibitors in this study, offering scientific clues for the development of drugs targeting CNS disorders.

Abstract
The enzyme immobilization technology has become a key tool in the field of enzyme applications; however, improving the activity recovery and stability of the immobilized enzymes is still challenging. Herein, we employed a magnetic carboxymethyl cellulose (MCMC) nanocomposite modified with ionic liquids (ILs) for covalent immobilization of lipase, and used Ca-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as the support skeleton and protective layer for immobilized enzymes. The ILs contained long side chains (eight CH2 units), which not only enhanced the hydrophobicity of the carrier and its hydrophobic interaction with the enzymes, but also provided a certain buffering effect when the enzyme molecules were subjected to compression. Compared to free lipase, the obtained CaBPDC@PPL-IL-MCMC exhibited higher specific activity and enhanced stability. In addition, the biocatalyst could be easily separated using a magnetic field, which is beneficial for its reusability. After 10 cycles, the residual activity of CaBPDC@PPL-IL-MCMC could reach up to 86.9%. These features highlight the good application prospects of the present immobilization method.

Abstract
Modifying the carrier interface is a promising method to improve the microenvironment of immobilized enzymes and enhance their activity and stability. In this work, using proline as amino acid, magnetic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were modified with an amino-acid-based ionic liquid (AAIL) with two hydroxyl groups followed by adsorption of porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL). The activity recovery of the prepared immobilized lipase (MMOF-AAIL/PPL) was up to 162 % higher than that of MMOF-PPL (70.8 %). The Michaelis constant of MMOF-AAIL/PPL was 0.0742 mM lower than that of MMOF-PPL, but the catalytic efficiency was 0.0223 min-1 which was higher than MMOF-PPL. Furthermore, MMOF-AAIL/PPL maintained 85.6 % residual activity after stored for 40 days and its residual activity was 71.9 % while that for MMOF-PPL was 58.8 % after incubated in 6 M urea for 2 h. Particularly, after ten consecutive cycles, the residual activity of MMOF-AAIL/PPL still reached 84.4 %. In addition, the magnetic properties of the support facilitate the separation process which improves the utilization efficiency of immobilized enzymes.

Abstract
Zinc ferrite nanoparticles (ZnF NPs) were synthesized by a green method using Psidium guava Leaves extract and characterized via structural and optical properties. The surface of ZnF NPs was stabilized with citric acid (CA) by a direct addition method to obtain (ZnF-CA NPs), and then lipase (LP) enzyme was immobilized on ZnF-CA NPs to obtain a modified ZnF-CA-LP nanocomposite (NCs). The prepared sample's photocatalytic activity against Methylene blue dye (MB) was determined. The antioxidant activity of ZnF-CA-LP NCs was measured using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) as a source of free radicals. In addition, the antibacterial and antibiofilm capabilities of these substances were investigated by testing them against gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus ATCC 25923) and gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli ATCC 25922) bacterial strains. The synthesized ZnF NPs were discovered to be situated at the core of the material, as determined by XRD, HRTEM, and SEM investigations, while the CA and lipase enzymes were coated in this core. The ZnF-CA-LP NCs crystallite size was around 35.0 nm at the (311) plane. Results obtained suggested that 0.01 g of ZnF-CA-LP NCs achieved 96.0% removal of 5.0 ppm of MB at pH 9.0. In-vitro zone of inhibition (ZOI) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) results verified that ZnF-CA-LP NCs exhibited its encouraged antimicrobial activity against S. aureus and E. coli (20.0 ± 0.512, and 27.0 ± 0.651 mm ZOI, respectively) & (1.25, and 0.625 μg/ml MIC, respectively). ZnF-CA-LP NPs showed antibiofilm percentage against S. aureus (88.4%) and E. coli (96.6%). Hence, ZnF-CA-LP NCs are promising for potential applications in environmental and biomedical uses.

Abstract
Rivastigmine is one of the several pharmaceuticals widely prescribed for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. However, its practical synthesis still faces many issues, such as the involvement of toxic metals and harsh reaction conditions. Herein, we report a chemo-enzymatic synthesis of Rivastigmine. The key chiral intermediate was synthesized by an engineered alcohol dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus brevis (LbADH). A semi-rational approach was employed to improve its catalytic activity and thermal stability. Several LbADH variants were obtained with a remarkable increase in activity and melting temperature. Exploration of the substrate scope of these variants demonstrated improved activities toward various ketones, especially acetophenone analogs. To further recycle and reuse the biocatalyst, one LbADH variant and glucose dehydrogenase were co-immobilized on nanoparticles. By integrating enzymatic and chemical steps, Rivastigmine was successfully synthesized with an overall yield of 66 %. This study offers an efficient chemo-enzymatic route for Rivastigmine and provides several efficient LbADH variants with a broad range of potential applications.

Abstract
The development of green catalysts, specifically biocatalysts, is crucial for building a sustainable society. To enhance the versatility of biocatalysts, the immobilization of enzymes plays a vital role as it improves their recyclability and robustness. As target enzymes to immobilize, glucose dehydrogenases and carboxylases are particularly important among various kinds of enzymes due to their involvement in two significant reactions: regeneration of the reduced form of coenzyme required for various reactions, and carboxylation reactions utilizing CO2 as a substrate, respectively. In this study, we immobilized Thermoplasma acidophilum glucose dehydrogenase (TaGDH) and T. acidophilum isocitrate dehydrogenase (TaIDH) using a previously reported method involving the formation of enzyme-inorganic hybrid nanocrystals, in the course of our continuing study focusing on carboxylation catalyzed by the free form of TaGDH and TaIDH. Subsequently, we investigated the properties of the resulting immobilized enzymes. Our results indicate the successful immobilization of TaGDH and TaIDH through the formation of hybrid nanocrystals utilizing Mn2+. The immobilization process enhanced TaIDH activity, up to 211%, while TaGDH retained 71% of its original activity. Notably, the immobilized TaGDH exhibited higher activity at temperatures exceeding 87 °C than the free TaGDH. Moreover, these immobilized enzymes could be recycled. Finally, we successfully utilized the immobilized enzymes for the carboxylation of 2-ketoglutaric acid under 1 MPa CO2. In conclusion, this study represents the first immobilization of TaGDH and TaIDH using the hybrid nanocrystal forming method. Furthermore, we achieved significant activity enhancement of TaIDH through immobilization and demonstrated the recyclability of the immobilized enzymes.

Abstract
In this study, a novel magnetic macroporous chitin microsphere (MMCM) was developed for enzyme immobilization. Chitin nanofibers were prepared and subsequently subjected to self-assembly with magnetic nanoparticles and PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate). Following this, microspheres were formed through spray drying, achieving a porous structure through etching. The MMCM serves as an effective support for immobilizing enzymes, allowing for their covalent immobilization both on the microsphere's surface and within its pores. The substantial surface area resulting from the porous structure leads to a 2.1-fold increase in enzyme loading capacity compared to non-porous microspheres. The MMCM enhances stability of the immobilized enzymes under various pH and temperature conditions. Furthermore, after 20 days of storage at 4 °C, the residual activity of the immobilized enzyme was 2.93 times that of the free enzyme. Even after being recycled 10 times, the immobilized enzyme retained 56.7 % of its initial activity. It's noteworthy that the active sites of the enzymes remained unchanged after immobilization using the MMCM, and kinetic analysis revealed that the affinity of the immobilized enzymes rivals that of the free enzymes.

Biogeneration of silver nanoparticles from Cuphea procumbens for biomedical and environmental applications. Sci Rep 2023; 13:790. [PMID: 36646714 PMCID: PMC9842608 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-26818-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Nanotechnology is one of the most important and relevant disciplines today due to the specific electrical, optical, magnetic, chemical, mechanical and biomedical properties of nanoparticles. In the present study we demonstrate the efficacy of Cuphea procumbens to biogenerate silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with antibacterial and antitumor activity. These nanoparticles were synthesized using the aqueous extract of C. procumbens as reducing agent and silver nitrate as oxidizing agent. The Transmission Electron Microscopy demonstrated that the biogenic AgNPs were predominantly quasi-spherical with an average particle size of 23.45 nm. The surface plasmonic resonance was analyzed by ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) observing a maximum absorption band at 441 nm and Infrared Spectroscopy (FT IR) was used in order to structurally identify the functional groups of some compounds involved in the formation of nanoparticles. The AgNPs demonstrated to have antibacterial activity against the pathogenic bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, identifying the maximum zone of inhibition at the concentration of 0.225 and 0.158 µg/mL respectively. Moreover, compared to the extract, AgNPs exhibited better antitumor activity and higher therapeutic index (TI) against several tumor cell lines such as human breast carcinoma MCF-7 (IC50 of 2.56 µg/mL, TI of 27.65 µg/mL), MDA-MB-468 (IC50 of 2.25 µg/mL, TI of 31.53 µg/mL), human colon carcinoma HCT-116 (IC50 of 1.38 µg/mL, TI of 51.07 µg/mL) and melanoma A-375 (IC50 of 6.51 µg/mL, TI of 10.89 µg/mL). This fact is of great since it will reduce the side effects derived from the treatment. In addition, AgNPs revealed to have a photocatalytic activity of the dyes congo red (10-3 M) in 5 min and malachite green (10-3 M) in 7 min. Additionally, the degradation percentages were obtained, which were 86.61% for congo red and 82.11% for malachite green. Overall, our results demonstrated for the first time that C. procumbens biogenerated nanoparticles are excellent candidates for several biomedical and environmental applications.

Abstract
Biocatalysis is increasingly becoming an alternative method for the synthesis of industrially relevant complex molecules. This can be realized by using enzyme immobilized polysaccharide-based 3D scaffolds as compatible carriers, with defined properties. Especially, immobilization of either single or multiple enzymes on a 3D printed polysaccharide scaffold, exhibiting well-organized interconnected porous structure and morphology, is a versatile approach to access the performance of industrially important enzymes. Here, we demonstrated the use of nanocellulose-based 3D porous scaffolds for the immobilization of glycosyltransferases, responsible for glycosylation in natural biosynthesis. The scaffolds were produced using an ink containing nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and citric acid. Direct-ink-writing 3D printing followed by freeze-drying and dehydrothermal treatment at elevated temperature resulted in chemically cross-linked scaffolds, featuring tunable negative charges (2.2-5.0 mmol/g), pore sizes (10-800 μm), fluid uptake capacity, and exceptional dimensional and mechanical stability in the wet state. The negatively charged scaffolds were applied to immobilize two sugar nucleotide-dependent glycosyltransferases (C-glycosyltransferase, Zbasic2-CGT; sucrose synthase, Zbasic2-SuSy), each harboring a cationic binding module (Zbasic2) to promote charge-based enzyme adsorption. Both enzymes were immobilized at ∼30 mg of protein/g of dry carrier (∼20% yield), independent of the scaffold used. Their specific activities were 0.50 U/mg (Zbasic2-CGT) and 0.19 U/mg (Zbasic2-SuSy), corresponding to an efficacy of 37 and 18%, respectively, compared to the soluble enzymes. The glycosyltransferases were coimmobilized and shown to be active in a cascade reaction to give the natural C-glycoside nothofagin from phloretin (1.0 mM; ∼95% conversion). All enzyme bound scaffolds showed reusability of a maximum of 5 consecutive reactions. These results suggest that the 3D printed and cross-linked NFC/CMC-based scaffolds could present a class of solid carriers for enzyme (co)-immobilization, with promising applications in glycosyltransferase-catalyzed synthesis and other fields of biocatalysis.

Abstract
Microplastic accumulation in terrestrial and aquatic environments is a growing environmental challenge. Biodegradation has shown promise as an intervention strategy for reducing the spread of microplastics. The wastewater treatment system is a key intervention point in microplastic biodegradation due to its pivotal role in the water cycle at the interface between human activity and the environmental. However, the best characterized microplastic degradation enzyme, PETase, lacks the stability to perform at scale in wastewater treatment. In this work, we show that genetic fusion of PETase to a silica binding peptide enables directed immobilization of the enzyme onto silica nanoparticles. PETase activity in simulated wastewater conditions is quantified by linear regression from time zero to the time of maximum fluorescence of a fluorescent oxidized product of PETase degradation of PET microfibers. Mesoporous silica is shown to be a superior support material to nonporous silica. The resulting biocatalytic nanomaterial has up to 2.5-fold enhanced stability and 6.2-fold increased activity compared to free enzyme in unbuffered, 40 °C simulated influent (ionic strength ∼15 mM). In unbuffered, 40 °C simulated effluent (ionic strength ∼700 μM), reaction velocity and overall catalytic activity were increased by the biocatalytic material 2.1-fold relative to free PETase. All reactions were performed in 0.2 mL volumes, and enzyme concentrations were normalized across both free and immobilized samples to 9 μg/mL. Site-directed mutagenesis is shown to be a complementary technique to directed immobilization, which may aid in optimization of the biomaterial for wastewater applications. PETase stabilization in application-relevant environments as shown here enables progress toward application of PETase for microplastic biodegradation in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Lipophilization is a promising way to improve the bioavailability of flavonoids. However, the traditional enzymatic esterification methods are time-consuming, and present low yields and purity. Herein, a novel membrane-based lipophilization technology-bioinspired lipase immobilized membranes (BLIMs), including CAL-B@PES, CAL-B@PDA/PES and GA/CAL-B@PDA/PES- were fabricated to improve the antioxidant flavanone glycoside hesperidin lipophilization. Via reverse filtration, PDA coating and GA crosslinking, Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) was stably immobilized on membrane to fabricate BLIMs. Among the three BLIMs, GA/CAL-B@PDA/PES had the greatest enzyme activity and enzyme loading, the strongest tolerance of changes in external environmental conditions (temperatures, pH, heating time, storage time and numbers of cycles) and the highest hesperidin esterification efficiency. Moreover, the optimal operating condition for GA/CAL-B@PDA/PES fabrication was the CAL-B concentration of 0.36 mg/mL, operation pressure of 2 bar, GA concentration of 5% and crosslinking time of 1 h. Afterwards, the hesperidin esterification process did not affect the micromorphology of BLIM, but clearly improved the BLIM permeability and esterified product efficiency. The present study reveals the fabrication mechanism of BLIMs and offers insights into the optimizing strategy that governs the membrane-based lipophilization technology process.

Abstract
The thermophilic cellulase Cel5a from Fervidobacterium nodosum (FnCel5a) was conjugated with neutral, cationic, and anionic polymers of increasing molecular weights. The enzymatic activity toward an anionic soluble cellulose derivative, thermal stability, and functional chemical stability of these bioconjugates were investigated. The results suggest that increasing polymer chain length for polymers compatible with the substrate enhances the positive impact of polymer conjugation on enzymatic activity. Activity enhancements of nearly 100% were observed for bioconjugates with N,N-dimethyl acrylamide (DMAm) and N,N-dimethyl acrylamide-2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAm/DMAEMA) due to proposed polymer-substrate compatibility enabled by potential noncovalent interactions. Double conjugation of two functionally distinct polymers to wild-type and mutated FnCel5a using two conjugation methods was achieved. These doubly conjugated bioconjugates exhibited similar thermal stability to the unmodified wild-type enzyme, although enzymatic activity initially gained from conjugation was lost, suggesting that chain length may be a better tool for bioconjugate activity modulation than double conjugation.

Abstract
Various studies have shown that the microbial proteins are often more stable than belongs to other sources like plant and animal origin. Hence, the interest in microbial enzymes has gained much attention due to many potential applications like bioenergy, biofuel production, biobleaching, bioconversion and so on. Additionally, recent trends revealed that the interest in isolating novel microbes from harsh environments have been the main focus of many scientists for various applications. Basically, industrially important enzymes can be categorized into mainly three groups: carbohydrases, proteases, and lipases. Among those, the enzymes especially carbohydrases involved in production of sugars. Carbohydrases include amylases, xylanases, pectinases, cellulases, chitinases, mannases, laccases, ligninases, lactase, glucanase, and glucose oxidase. Thus, here, an approach has been made to highlight five enzymes namely amylase, cellulase, laccase, pectinase, and xylanase from different sources with special emphasis on their properties, mechanism, applications, production optimization, purification, molecular approaches for its enhanced and stable production, and also biotechnological perspectives of its future development. Also, green and sustainable catalytic conversion strategies using nanoparticles of these enzymes have also been discussed. This review will provide insight into the carbohydrases importance and their usefulness that will help to the researchers working in this field.
