Abstract
Long-term and green marine antifouling coatings are an important means to prolong the service life of ships and other marine instruments and equipment. To accomplish this, we prepared three new green and high-efficiency antifouling coatings containing phthalimide derivatives inspired by capsaicin (PDIC-AC) by using a collaborative strategy that incorporates self-polishing, fouling repelling, and antifouling properties. Static simulation tests confirmed that the zinc acrylate resin of the PDIC-AC has excellent self-polishing properties due to changes in the roughness, surface free energy, and mass loss. Antifouling tests demonstrated that both PDIC and PDIC-AC possess efficient antibacterial and anti-algal effects. Moreover, marine field tests showed that the PDIC-AC are highly antifouling for at least 9 months, and their antifouling effect is similar to that of an antifouling coating with chlorothalonil (CT-AC). The collaborative strategy in this study can be used to research and develop long-term environmentally friendly antifouling coatings.

Abstract
Mineralization catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase (CA) is one of the most promising technologies for capturing CO2. In this work, Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) was used as the host, and the N-terminus of ice nucleation protein (INPN) was used as the carrier protein. Different fusion patterns and vectors were used to construct CA surface display systems for α-carbonic anhydrase (HPCA) from Helicobacter pylori 26695 and α-carbonic anhydrase (SazCA) from Sulfurihydrogenibium azorense. The surface display system in which HPCA was fused with INPN via a flexible linker and intermediate repeat sequences showed higher whole-cell enzyme activity, while the enzyme activity of the SazCA expression system was significantly higher than that of the HPCA expression system. The pET22b vector with the signal peptide PelB was more suitable for the cell surface display of SazCA. Cell fractionation and western-blot analysis indicated that SazCA and INPN were successfully anchored on the cell's outer membrane as a fusion protein. The enzyme activity of the surface display strain E-22b-IRLS (11.43 U·mL-1OD600 -1) was significantly higher than that of the intracellular expression strain E-22b-S (8.355 U·mL-1OD600 -1) under optimized induction conditions. Compared with free SazCA, E-22b-IRLS had higher thermal and pH stability. The long-term stability of SazCA was also significantly improved by surface display. When the engineered strain and free enzyme were used for CO2 mineralization, the amount of CaCO3 deposition catalyzed by the strain E-22b-IRLS on the surface (241 mg) was similar to that of the free SazCA and was significantly higher than the intracellular expression strain E-22b-S (173 mg). These results demonstrate that the SazCA surface display strain can serve as a whole-cell biocatalyst for CO2 capture and mineralization.

Abstract
The α-class carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) from the bacterial pathogens Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NgCAα) and Vibrio cholerae (VchCAα) were investigated for their inhibition by a panel of phenols and phenolic acids. Mono-, di- and tri-substituted phenols incorporating additional hydroxyl/hydroxymethyl, amino, acetamido, carboxyl, halogeno and carboxyethenyl moieties were included in the study. The best NgCAα inhibitrs were phenol, 3-aminophenol, 4-hydroxy-benzylalcohol, 3-amino-4-chlorophenol and paracetamol, with KI values of 0.6–1.7 µM. The most effective VchCAα inhibitrs were phenol, 3-amino-4-chlorophenol and 4-hydroxy-benzyl-alcohol, with KI values of 0.7–1.2 µM. Small changes in the phenol scaffold led to drastic effects on the bacterial CA inhibitory activity. This class of underinvestigated bacterial CA inhibitors may thus lead to effective compounds for fighting drug resistant bacteria.

Abstract
New C-glycosides and α,β-unsaturated ketones incorporating the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl (vanillin) moiety as inhibitors of carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms have been investigated. The inhibition profile of these compounds is presented against four human CA (hCA) isozymes, comprising hCAs I and II (cytosolic, ubiquitous enzymes) and hCAs IX and XII (tumour associated isozymes). Docking analysis of the inhibitors within the active sites of these enzymes has been performed and is discussed, showing that the observed selectivity could be explained in terms of an alternative pocket out of the CA active site where some of these compounds may bind. Several derivatives were identified as selective inhibitors of the tumour-associated hCA IX and XII. Their discovery might be a step in the strategy for finding an effective non-sulfonamide CA inhibitor useful in therapy/diagnosis of hypoxic tumours or other pathologies in which CA isoforms are involved.

Abstract
Diatoms belong to a major, diverse and species-rich eukaryotic clade, the Heterokonta, within the polyphyletic chromalveolates. They evolved as a result of secondary endosymbiosis with one or more Plantae ancestors, but their precise evolutionary history is enigmatic. Nevertheless, this has conferred them with unique structural and biochemical properties that have allowed them to flourish in a wide range of different environments and cope with highly variable conditions. We review the effect of pH, light and dark, and CO2 concentration on the regulation of carbon uptake and assimilation. We discuss the regulation of the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle, glycolysis, lipid synthesis, and carbohydrate synthesis at the level of gene transcripts (transcriptomics), proteins (proteomics) and enzyme activity. In contrast to Viridiplantae where redox regulation of metabolic enzymes is important, it appears to be less common in diatoms, based on the current evidence, but regulation at the transcriptional level seems to be widespread. The role of post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, glutathionylation, etc., and of protein-protein interactions, has been overlooked and should be investigated further. Diatoms and other chromalveolates are understudied compared to the Viridiplantae, especially given their ecological importance, but we believe that the ever-growing number of sequenced genomes combined with proteomics, metabolomics, enzyme measurements, and the application of novel techniques will provide a better understanding of how this important group of algae maintain their productivity under changing conditions.
