Abstract
Enzyme-linked electrochemical immunosensors have attracted considerable attention for the sensitive and selective detection of various targets in clinical diagnosis, food quality control, and environmental analysis. In order to improve the performances of conventional immunoassays, significant efforts have been made to couple enzyme-linked or nanozyme-based catalysis and redox cycling for signal amplification. The current review summarizes the recent advances in the development of enzyme- or nanozyme-based electrochemical immunosensors with redox cycling for signal amplification. The special features of redox cycling reactions and their synergistic functions in signal amplification are discussed. Additionally, the current challenges and future directions of enzyme- or nanozyme-based electrochemical immunosensors with redox cycling are addressed.

Abstract
Point-of-care sensors, which are low-cost and user-friendly, play a crucial role in precision medicine by providing quick results for individuals. Here, we transform the conventional glucometer into a 4-hydroxytamoxifen therapeutic biosensor in which 4-hydroxytamoxifen modulates the electrical signal generated by glucose oxidation. To encode the 4-hydroxytamoxifen signal within glucose oxidation, we introduce the ligand-binding domain of estrogen receptor-alpha into pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent glucose dehydrogenase by constructing and screening a comprehensive protein insertion library. In addition to obtaining 4-hydroxytamoxifen regulatable engineered proteins, these results unveil the significance of both secondary and quaternary protein structures in propagation of conformational signals. By constructing an effective bioelectrochemical interface, we detect 4-hydroxytamoxifen in human blood samples as changes in the electrical signal and use this to develop an electrochemical algorithm to decode the 4-hydroxytamoxifen signal from glucose. To meet the miniaturization and signal amplification requirements for point-of-care use, we harness power from glucose oxidation to create a self-powered sensor. We also amplify the 4-hydroxytamoxifen signal using an organic electrochemical transistor, resulting in milliampere-level signals. Our work demonstrates a broad interdisciplinary approach to create a biosensor that capitalizes on recent innovations in protein engineering, electrochemical sensing, and electrical engineering.

Nanobody-guided redox and enzymatic functionalization of icosahedral virus particles for enhanced bioelectrocatalysis. Bioelectrochemistry 2024; 155:108570.

Abstract
Icosahedral, 30 nm diameter, grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) virus particles are adsorbed onto electrodes and used as nanoscaffolds for the assembly of an integrated glucose oxidizing system, comprising the enzyme pyrroloquinoline quinone-glucose dehydrogenase (PQQ-GDH) and ferrocenylated polyethylene glycol chains (Fc-PEG) as a redox co-substrate. Two different GFLV-specific nanobodies, either fused to the enzyme, or chemically conjugated to Fc-PEG, are used for the regio-selective immunodecoration of the viral particles. A comprehensive kinetic characterization of the enzymatic function of the particles, initially decorated with the enzyme alone shows that simple immobilization on the GFLV capsid has no effect on the kinetic scheme of the enzyme, nor on its catalytic activity. However, we find that co-immobilization of the enzyme and the Fc-PEG co-substrate on GFLV does induce enzymatic enhancement, by promoting cooperativity between the two subunits of the homodimeric enzyme, via "synchronization" of their redox state. A decrease in inhibition of the enzyme by its substrate (glucose) is also observed.

Exploring Performance Parameters of Artificial Allosteric Protein Switches. J Mol Biol 2022; 434:167678.

Abstract
Biological information processing networks rely on allosteric protein switches that dynamically interconvert biological signals. Construction of their artificial analogues is a central goal of synthetic biology and bioengineering. Receptor domain insertion is one of the leading methods for constructing chimeric protein switches. Here we present an in vitro expression-based platform for the analysis of chimeric protein libraries for which traditional cell survival or cytometric high throughput assays are not applicable. We utilise this platform to screen a focused library of chimeras between PQQ-glucose dehydrogenase and calmodulin. Using this approach, we identified 50 chimeras (approximately 23% of the library) that were activated by calmodulin-binding peptides. We analysed performance parameters of the active chimeras and demonstrated that their dynamic range and response times are anticorrelated, pointing to the existence of an inherent thermodynamic trade-off. We show that the structure of the ligand peptide affects both the response and activation kinetics of the biosensors suggesting that the structure of a ligand:receptor complex can influence the chimera's activation pathway. In order to understand the extent of structural changes in the reporter protein induced by the receptor domains, we have analysed one of the chimeric molecules by CD spectroscopy and hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry. We concluded that subtle ligand-induced changes in the receptor domain propagated into the GDH domain and affected residues important for substrate and cofactor binding. Finally, we used one of the identified chimeras to construct a two-component rapamycin biosensor and demonstrated that core switch optimisation translated into improved biosensor performance.

Abstract
The enzymatic activity of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) nanorod particles decorated with an integrated electro-catalytic system, comprising the quinoprotein glucose-dehydrogenase (PQQ-GDH) enzyme and ferrocenylated PEG chains as redox mediators, is probed at the individual virion scale by atomic force microscopy-scanning electrochemical atomic force microscopy (AFM-SECM). A marked dependence of the catalytic activity on the particle length is observed. This finding can be explained by electron propagation along the viral backbone, resulting from electron exchange between ferrocene moieties, coupled with enzymatic catalysis. Thus, the use of a simple 1D diffusion/reaction model allows the determination of the kinetic parameters of the virus-supported enzyme. Comparative analysis of the catalytic behavior of the Fc-PEG/PQQ-GDH system assembled on two differing viral scaffolds, TMV (this work) and bacteriophage-fd (previous work), reveals two distinct kinetic effects of scaffolding: An enhancement of catalysis that does not depend on the virus type and a modulation of substrate inhibition that depends on the virus type. AFM-SECM detection of the enzymatic activity of a few tens of PQQ-GDH molecules, decorating a 40 nm-long viral domain, is also demonstrated, a record in terms of the lowest number of enzyme molecules interrogated by an electrochemical imaging technique.

Abstract
Nanocatalysts are a promising alternative to natural enzymes as the signal labels of electrochemical biosensors. However, the surface modification of nanocatalysts and sensor electrodes with recognition elements and blockers may form a barrier to direct electron transfer, thus limiting the application of nanocatalysts in electrochemical immunoassays. Electron mediators can accelerate the electron transfer between nanocatalysts and electrodes. Nevertheless, it is hard to simultaneously achieve fast electron exchange between nanocatalysts and redox mediators as well as substrates. This work presents a scheme for the design of electrochemical immunosensors with nanocatalysts as signal labels, in which pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is the redox-active center of the nanocatalyst. PQQ was decorated on the surface of carbon nanotubes to catalyze the electrochemical oxidation of tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP) with ferrocenylmethanol (FcM) as the electron mediator. With prostate-specific antigen (PSA) as the model analyte, the detection limit of the sandwich-type immunosensor was found to be 5 pg/mL. The keys to success for this scheme are the slow chemical reaction between TCEP and ferricinum ions, and the high turnover frequency between ferricinum ions, PQQ. and TCEP. This work should be valuable for designing of novel nanolabels and nanocatalytic schemes for electrochemical biosensors.

Abstract
This review summarizes the basic features of the PQQ-GDH enzyme as one of the sugar converting biocatalysts. Focus is on the membrane -bound and the soluble form. Furthermore, the main principles of enzymatic catalysis as well as studies on the physiological importance are reviewed. A short overview is given on developments in protein engineering. The major part, however, deals with the different fields of application in bioelectrochemistry. This includes approaches for enzyme-electrode communication such as direct electron transfer, mediator-based systems, redox polymers or conducting polymers and holoenzyme reconstitution, and covers applied areas such as biosensing, biofuel cells, recycling schemes, enzyme competition, light-directed sensing, switchable detection schemes, logical operations by enzyme electrodes and immune sensing.

Abstract
The ability to switch on the activity of an enzyme through its spontaneous reconstitution has proven to be a valuable tool in fundamental studies of enzyme structure/reactivity relationships or in the design of artificial signal transduction systems in bioelectronics, synthetic biology, or bioanalytical applications. In particular, those based on the spontaneous reconstitution/activation of the apo-PQQ-dependent soluble glucose dehydrogenase (sGDH) from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus were widely developed. However, the reconstitution mechanism of sGDH with its two cofactors, i.e., pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) and Ca2+, remains unknown. The objective here is to elucidate this mechanism by stopped-flow kinetics under single-turnover conditions. The reconstitution of sGDH exhibited biphasic kinetics, characteristic of a square reaction scheme associated with two activation pathways. From a complete kinetic analysis, we were able to fully predict the reconstitution dynamics and also to demonstrate that when PQQ first binds to apo-sGDH, it strongly impedes the access of Ca2+ to its enclosed position at the bottom of the enzyme binding site, thereby greatly slowing down the reconstitution rate of sGDH. This slow calcium insertion may purposely be accelerated by providing more flexibility to the Ca2+ binding loop through the specific mutation of the calcium-coordinating P248 proline residue, reducing thus the kinetic barrier to calcium ion insertion. The dynamic nature of the reconstitution process is also supported by the observation of a clear loop shift and a reorganization of the hydrogen-bonding network and van der Waals interactions observed in both active sites of the apo and holo forms, a structural change modulation that was revealed from the refined X-ray structure of apo-sGDH (PDB: 5MIN).

Abstract
Worldwide legislation is driving the development of novel and highly efficient analytical tools for assessing the composition of every material that interacts with Consumers or Nature. The biosensor technology is one of the most active R&D domains of Analytical Sciences focused on the challenge of taking analytical chemistry to the field. Electrochemical biosensors based on redox enzymes, in particular, are highly appealing due to their usual quick response, high selectivity and sensitivity, low cost and portable dimensions. This review paper aims to provide an overview of the most important advances made in the field since the proposal of the first biosensor, the well-known hand-held glucose meter. The first section addresses the current needs and challenges for novel analytical tools, followed by a brief description of the different components and configurations of biosensing devices, and the fundamentals of enzyme kinetics and amperometry. The following sections emphasize on enzyme-based amperometric biosensors and the different stages of their development.

The cooperativity effect in the reaction of soluble quinoprotein (PQQ-containing) glucose dehydrogenase is not due to subunit interaction but to substrate-assisted catalysis. FEBS J 2016; 283:3604-3612.

Abstract
Soluble quinoprotein (PQQ-containing) glucose dehydrogenase (sGDH, EC 1.1.99.35) catalyzes the oxidation of β-d-glucose to d-glucono-δ-lactone. Although sGDH has many analytical applications, the relationship between activity and substrate concentration is not well established. Previous steady-state kinetic studies revealed a negative cooperativity effect which has recently been ascribed to subunit interaction. To investigate this conclusion, stopped-flow kinetic experiments were carried out on the reaction in which oxidized enzyme (Eox ) was reduced with substrates to Ered . The appearance of Ered is observed to be preceded by formation of an intermediate enzyme form, Int, which is mono-exponentially formed from Eox . However, the rate of conversion of Int into Ered depends hyperbolically on the concentration of substrate (leading to a 35-fold stimulation in the case of glucose). Evidence is provided that substrate not only binds to Eox but also to Int and Ered as well, and that the binding to Int causes the significant stimulation of Int decay. It is proposed that a proton shuffling step is involved in the decay, which is facilitated by binding of substrate to Int. Substituting the PQQ-activating Ca by a Ba ion lowered all reaction rates but did not change the stimulation factor. In summary, the previous proposal that the cooperativity effect of sGDH is due to interaction between its substrate-loaded subunits is incorrect; it is due to substrate-assisted catalysis of the enzyme. ENZYMES EC 1.1.99.35 - soluble quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase.

Abstract
A highly sensitive electroanalytical method for determination of PQQ in solution down to subpicomolar concentrations is proposed. It is based on the heterogeneous reconstitution of the PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (PQQ-GDH) through the specific binding of its pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) cofactor to the apoenzyme anchored on an electrode surface. It is shown from kinetics analysis of both the enzyme catalytic responses and enzyme surface-reconstitution process (achieved by cyclic voltammetry under redox-mediated catalysis) that the selected immobilization strategy (i.e., through an avidin/biotin linkage) is well-suited to immobilize a nearly saturated apoenzyme monolayer on the electrode surface with an almost fully preserved PQQ binding properties and catalytic activity. From measurement of the overall rate constants controlling the steady-state catalytic current responses of the surface-reconstituted PQQ-GDH and determination of the PQQ equilibrium binding (Kb = 2.4 × 10(10) M(-1)) and association rate (kon = 2 × 10(6) M(-1) s(-1)) constants with the immobilized apoenzyme, the analytical performances of the method could be rationally evaluated, and the signal amplification for PQQ detection down to the picomolar levels is well-predicted. These performances outperform by several orders of magnitude the direct electrochemical detection of PQQ in solution and by 1 to 2 orders the detection limits previously achieved by UV-vis spectroscopic detection of the homogeneous PQQ-GDH reconstitution.

Abstract
We have developed a novel method, antagonistic template-based biopanning, for screening peptide ligands specifically recognizing local tertiary protein structures. We chose water-soluble pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) glucose dehydrogenase (GDH-B) as a model enzyme for this screening. Two GDH-B mutants were constructed as antagonistic templates; these have some point mutations to induce disruption of local tertiary structures within the loop regions that are located at near glucose-binding pocket. Using phage display, we selected 12-mer peptides that specifically bound to wild-type GDH-B but not to the antagonistic templates. Consequently, a peptide ligand showing inhibitory activity against GDH-B was obtained. These results demonstrate that the antagonistic template-based biopanning is useful for screening peptide ligands recognizing the specific local tertiary structure of proteins.

Abstract
Understanding the electron-transfer mechanism and kinetic characteristics of bioanodes is greatly significant to enhance the electron-generating efficiencies in bioelectrochemical systems (BESs). A Nernst-ping-pong model is proposed here to investigate the kinetics and biochemical processes of bioanodes in a microbial electrolysis cell. This model can accurately describe the effects of the substrate (including substrate inhibition) and the anode potential on the current of bioanodes. Results show that the half-wave potential positively shifts as the substrate concentration increases, indicating that the rate-determining steps of anodic processes change from substrate oxidation to intracellular electron transport reaction. The anode potential has negligible effects on the enzymatic catalysis of anodic microbes in the range of -0.25 V to +0.1 V vs. a saturated calomel electrode. It turns out that to reduce the anodic energy loss caused by overpotential, higher substrate concentrations are preferred, if the substrate do not significantly and adversely affect the output current.
