Abstract
In this work the green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) using the oxidoreductive enzymes Myriococcum thermophilum cellobiose dehydrogenase (Mt CDH), Glomerella cingulata glucose dehydrogenase (Gc GDH), and Aspergillus niger glucose oxidase (An GOX)) as bioreductants was investigated. The influence of reaction conditions on the synthesis of Au-NPs was examined and optimised. The reaction kinetics and the influence of Au ions on the reaction rate were determined. Based on the kinetic study, the mechanism of Au-NP synthesis was proposed. The Au-NPs were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption peaks of the Au-NPs synthesised with Mt CDH and Gc GDH were observed at 535 nm, indicating an average size of around 50 nm. According to the image analysis performed on a TEM micrograph, the Au-NPs synthesized with Gc GDH have a spherical shape with an average size of 2.83 and 6.63 nm after 24 and 48 h of the reaction, respectively. KEY POINTS: • The Au NPs were synthesised by the action of enzymes CDH and GDH. • The synthesis of Au-NPs by CDH is related to the oxidation of cellobiose. • The synthesis of Au-NPs by GDH was not driven by the reaction kinetic.

Abstract
An efficient cofactor regeneration system has been developed to provide a hydride source for the preparation of optically pure alcohols by carbonyl reductase-catalyzed asymmetric reduction. This system employed a novel glucose dehydrogenase (BcGDH90) from Bacillus cereus HBL-AI. The gene encoding BcGDH90 was found through the genome-wide functional annotation. Homology-built model study revealed that BcGDH90 was a homo-tetramer, and each subunit was composed of βD-αE-αF-αG-βG motif, which was responsible for substrate binding and tetramer formation. The gene of BcGDH90 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant BcGDH90 exhibited maximum activity of 45.3 U/mg at pH 9.0 and 40 °C. BcGDH90 showed high stability in a wide pH range of 4.0-10.0 and was stable after the incubation at 55 °C for 5 h. BcGDH90 was not a metal ion-dependent enzyme, but Zn2+ could seriously inhibit its activity. BcGDH90 displayed excellent tolerance to 90% of acetone, methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, and isopropanol. Furthermore, BcGDH90 was applied to regenerate NADPH for the asymmetric biosynthesis of (S)-(+)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol ((S)-PED) from hydroxyacetophenone (2-HAP) with high concentration, which increased the final efficiency by 59.4%. These results suggest that BcGDH90 is potentially useful for coenzyme regeneration in the biological reduction.

Abstract
One of the key intermediates, 5-hydroxyvaleric acid (5-HV), is used in the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoate monomer, δ-valerolactone, 1,5-pentanediol (1,5-PDO), and many other substances. Due to global environmental problems, eco-friendly bio-based synthesis of various platform chemicals and key intermediates are socially required, but few previous studies on 5-HV biosynthesis have been conducted. To establish a sustainable bioprocess for 5-HV production, we introduced gabT encoding 4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase and yqhD encoding alcohol dehydrogenase to produce 5-HV from 5-aminovaleric acid (5-AVA), through glutarate semialdehyde in Escherichia coli whole-cell reaction. As, high reducing power is required to produce high concentrations of 5-HV, we newly introduced glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) for NADPH regeneration system from Bacillus subtilis 168. By applying GDH with D-glucose and optimizing the parameters, 5-HV conversion rate from 5-AVA increased from 47% (w/o GDH) to 82% when using 200 mM (23.4 g/L) of 5-AVA. Also, it reached 56% conversion in 2 h, showing 56 mM/h (6.547 g/L/h) productivity from 200 mM 5-AVA, finally reaching 350 mM (41 g/L) and 14.6 mM/h (1.708 g/L/h) productivity at 24 h when 1 M (117.15 g/L) 5-AVA was used. When the whole-cell system with GDH was expanded to produce 1,5-PDO, its production was also increased 5-fold. Considering that 5-HV and 1,5-PDO production depends heavily on the reducing power of the cells, we successfully achieved a significant increase in 5-HV and 1,5-PDO production using GDH.

Abstract
Chiral compounds are important drug intermediates that play a critical role in human life. Herein, we report a facile method to prepare multi-enzyme nano-devices with high catalytic activity and stability. The self-assemble molecular binders SpyCatcher and SpyTag were fused with leucine dehydrogenase and glucose dehydrogenase to produce sc-LeuDH (SpyCatcher-fused leucine dehydrogenase) and GDH-st (SpyTag-fused glucose dehydrogenase), respectively. After assembling, the cross-linked enzymes LeuDH-GDH were formed. The crosslinking enzyme has good pH stability and temperature stability. The coenzyme cycle constant of LeuDH-GDH was always higher than that of free double enzymes. The yield of L-tert-leucine synthesis by LeuDH-GDH was 0.47 times higher than that by free LeuDH and GDH. To further improve the enzyme performance, the cross-linked LeuDH-GDH was immobilized on zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) via bionic mineralization, forming LeuDH-GDH @ZIF-8. The created co-immobilized enzymes showed even better pH stability and temperature stability than the cross-linked enzymes, and LeuDH-GDH@ZIF-8 retains 70% relative conversion rate in the first four reuses. In addition, the yield of LeuDH-GDH@ZIF-8 was 0.62 times higher than that of LeuDH-GDH, and 1.38 times higher than that of free double enzyme system. This work provides a novel method for developing multi-enzyme nano-device, and the ease of operation of this method is appealing for the construction of other multi-enzymes @MOF systems for the applications in the kinds of complex environment.

Abstract
Two dehydrogenase enzymes (glucose, GDH, and lactate, LDH, dehydrogenases) encapsulated within alginate hydrogels were deposited on glassy carbon electrodes. The as-prepared enzyme modified alginate hydrogels were utilized as electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based biosensors for the indirect detection of glucose and lactic acid upon reaction between NADH and tris(2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) [Ru(bpy)3]2+. The ECL response was obtained from the redox reaction between the substrate, the cofactor NAD+ and the encapsulated enzyme. The production of NADH resulting from the enzymatic reaction led to the ECL emission upon reaction with [Ru(bpy)3]2+. The biosensors showed good stability and repeatability, with linear range between 0.56 and 4.2 µM and limit of detection of 0.84 µM for glucose, and linear range between 5 and 30 µM with a limit of detection of 2.52 µM for lactic acid. These ECL-based biosensors showed good sensitivity when tested in the presence of common interfering species. These biosensors were utilized in artificial sweat and were characterized by good reproducibility and repeatability. The results herein presented suggest that the dehydrogenases encapsulated within alginate hydrogels have potential for the development of biocompatible sensors for detection of glucose and lactic acid in physiological fluids.

Abstract
Background Efficient upgrading of inferior agro-industrial resources and production of bio-based chemicals through a simple and environmentally friendly biotechnological approach is interesting Lactobionic acid is a versatile aldonic acid obtained from the oxidation of lactose. Several microorganisms have been used to produce lactobionic acid from lactose and whey. However, the lactobionic acid production titer and productivity should be further improved to compete with other methods. Results In this study, a new strain, Pseudomonas fragi NL20W, was screened as an outstanding biocatalyst for efficient utilization of waste whey to produce lactobionic acid. After systematic optimization of biocatalytic reactions, the lactobionic acid productivity from lactose increased from 3.01 g/L/h to 6.38 g/L/h in the flask. In batch fermentation using a 3 L bioreactor, the lactobionic acid productivity from whey powder containing 300 g/L lactose reached 3.09 g/L/h with the yield of 100%. Based on whole genome sequencing, a novel glucose dehydrogenase (GDH1) was determined as a lactose-oxidizing enzyme. Heterologous expression the enzyme GDH1 into P. putida KT2440 increased the lactobionic acid yield by 486.1%. Conclusion This study made significant progress both in improving lactobionic acid titer and productivity, and the lactobionic acid productivity from waste whey is superior to the ever reports. This study also revealed a new kind of aldose-oxidizing enzyme for lactose oxidation using P. fragi NL20W for the first time, which laid the foundation for further enhance lactobionic acid production by metabolic engineering.

Abstract
A new nano-structured platform for fluorescent analysis using PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (PQQ-GDH) was developed, particularly using a smartphone for transduction and quantification of optical signals. The PQQ-GDH enzyme was immobilized on SiO2 nanoparticles deposited on glass microfiber filter paper, providing a high load of the biocatalytic enzyme. The platform was tested and optimized for glucose determination using a wild type of the PQQ-GDH enzyme. The analysis was based on the fluorescence generated by the reduced form of phenazine methosulfate produced stoichiometrically to the glucose concentration. The fluorescent signals were generated at separate analytical spots on the paper support under wavelength (365 nm) UV excitation. The images of the analytical spots, dependent on the glucose concentration, were obtained using a photo camera of a standard smartphone. Then, the images were processed and quantified using software installed in a smartphone. The developed biocatalytic platform is the first step to assembling a large variety of biosensors using the same platform functionalized with artificial allosteric chimeric PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase activated with different analytes. The future combination of the artificial enzymes, the presently developed analytical platform, and signal processing with a smartphone will lead to novel point-of-care and end-user biosensors applicable to virtually all possible analytes.

Abstract
Long-term stability at near-body temperature is important for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors. However, the stability of enzymes used in CGM sensors has often been evaluated by measuring their melting temperature (Tm) values and by short heat treatment but not at around 37 °C. Glucose oxidase (GOD) is used in current CGM sensors. In this study, we evaluated the stability of modified Mucor-derived flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (designated Mr144-297) with improved thermal stability at medium to high temperatures and compared it with that of GOD. The Tm value of Mr144-297 was 61.6 ± 0.3 °C and was similar to that of GOD (61.4 ± 1.2 °C). However, Mr144-297 was clearly more stable than GOD at 40 °C and 55 °C. At 37 °C, the stability of a carbon electrode with immobilized Mr144-297 was higher than that of an electrode with GOD. Our data indicate that Mr144-297 is a more suitable enzyme for CGM sensors than is GOD.

Abstract
Enzymatic biofuel cells (EBFCs) provide a new strategy to enable direct biomass-to-electricity conversion, posing considerable demand on sequential enzymes. However, artificial blend of multi-enzyme systems often suffer biocatalytic inefficiency due to the rambling mixture of catalytic units. In an attempt to construct a high-performance starch/O2 EBFC, herein we prepared a starch-oxidizing bioanode based on displaying a sequential enzyme system of glucoamylase (GA) and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) on E.coli cell surfaces in a precise way using cohesin-dockerin interactions. The enzyme stoichiometry was optimized, with GA&GDH (3:1)-E.coli exhibiting the highest catalytic reaction rate. The bioanode employed polymerized methylene blue (polyMB) to collect electrons from the oxidation of NADH into NAD+, which jointly oxidized starch together with co-displayed GA and GDH. The bioanode was oxygen-insensitive, which can be combined with a laccase based biocathode, resulting in a membranless starch/O2 EBFC in a non-compartmentalized configuration. The optimal EBFC exhibited an open-circuit voltage (OCV) of 0.74 V, a maximum power density of 30.1 ± 2.8 μW cm-2, and good operational stability.

The development of third generation biosensors depends on the availability of direct electron transfer (DET) capable enzymes. A successful strategy is to fuse a cytochrome domain to an enzyme to fulfil the function of a built-in redox mediator between the catalytic center and the electrode. In this study, we fused the cytochrome domain of Neurospora crassa CDH IIA (NcCYT) N-terminally to glucose dehydrogenase from Glomerella cingulata (GcGDH) to generate the chimeric enzyme NcCYT-GcGDH in a large amount for further studies. Heterologous expression in P. pastoris and chromatographic purification resulted in 1.8 g of homogeneous chimeric enzyme. Biochemical and electrochemical characterization confirmed that the chimeric enzyme is catalytically active, able to perform interdomain electron transfer (IET) and direct electron transfer (DET) via the fused cytochrome domain. The midpoint redox potential of the fused b-type cytochrome is 91 mV vs. SHE at pH 6.5 and the specific current obtained on a porous graphite electrode is 2.3 μA cm-2. The high current obtained on this simple, unmodified electrode at a rather low redox potential is a promising starting point for further optimization. The high yield of NcCYT-GcGDH and its high specific activity supports the application of the chimeric enzyme in bioelectrocatalytic applications.

Abstract
In situ continuous glucose monitoring under physiological culture conditions is imperative in understanding the dynamics of cell and tissue behaviors and their physiological responses since glucose plays an important role in principal source of biological energy. We therefore examined physiologically relevant dynamic changes in glucose levels based on glucose metabolism and production during aerobic culture (10% O2) of rat primary hepatocytes stimulated with insulin or glucagon on a highly O2 permeable plate, which can maintain the oxygen concentration close to the periportal zone of the liver. As glucose monitoring devices, we used oxygen-independent glucose dehydrogenase-modified single-walled carbon nanotube electrodes placed close to the surface of the hepatocytes. The current response of glucose oxidation slightly decreased after the addition of insulin in the presence of glucose due to the acceleration of glucose uptake by the hepatocytes, whereas that significantly increased after the addition of glucagon and fructose even in the absence of glucose due to the conversion of fructose to glucose based on gluconeogenesis. These phenomena might be consistent relatively with the physiological behaviors of hepatocytes in the periportal region. The present monitoring system would be useful for the studies of glucose homeostasis and diabetes in vitro.

Abstract
In this report, we demonstrate the advantages of the dual-mode operation of an enzymatic biosupercapacitor with nanostructured polypyrrole/nanocellulose, gold nanoparticle-based paper electrodes, sucrose as the anode fuel and molecular oxygen as the oxidant. The device allowed conversion of the sucrose biofuel, and offered storage of the generated power in the same, small-scale device. The external and internal biosupercapacitor re-charging modes were compared. The specific capacitance of the device was 1.8 F cm-2 at a discharge current density of 1 mA cm-2. The cell used in the charge/discharge mode of operation allowed retention of 49% of the initial capacitance after eight days of exhaustive discharging under external load. The discontinuous capacitive mode, preserved the biocatalysts activity for much longer time. The use of such enzyme-based electrical energy sources in the capacitive mode i.e. under discontinuous charging was demonstrated as a solution for preserving high specific capacitance and long-term operational stability.

Abstract
Human hemoglobin (Hb) is a biomarker of several diseases, and monitoring of Hb levels is required during emergent surgery. However, rapid and sensitive Hb detection methods are yet to be developed. The present study established a rapid, convenient, and highly sensitive detection method for Hb in human serum using a bivalent antibody-enzyme complex (AEC). AECs are promising sensing elements because of their ability to bind specific targets and their catalytic activity that produce signals. We recently reported a convenient and universal method to fabricate bivalent AECs with two antibody fragments, using the SpyCatcher/SpyTag system. The present study applied a bivalent AEC for highly sensitive and quantitative detection of human Hb. The bivalent anti-Hb AEC was successfully prepared by incubating both N- and C-terminus SpyCatcher-fused glucose dehydrogenase and SpyTag-fused anti-Hb single-chain variable fragments at 4 °C. As expected, the bivalent AEC for Hb with a multimeric structure showed higher affinity than the monovalent AEC, by means of avidity effects, unlike that for soluble epidermal growth factor receptor with a monomeric structure; this contributed to a great improvement in sensitivity. Finally, we established a rapid and wash-free homogeneous electrochemical detection system for Hb by integrating magnetic beads. The linear range of the system completely covered the clinically required Hb levels, even in human serum. This technology provides an ideal point-of-care test for Hb and other multimeric biomarkers.

Abstract
Glucose level measurement is essential for the point-of-care diagnosis, primarily for persons with diabetes. A disposable electrochemical glucose sensor is constructed using flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) and redox mediator for electron transfer from the enzyme to the electrode surface. Ideally, a suitable mediator should have high water solubility, high kinetic constant, high stability, and redox potential between -0.2 and 0.1 V vs. Ag|AgCl|sat. KCl. We designed and synthesized two new quinone-based water-soluble mediators: quinoline-5,8-dione (QD) and isoquinoline-5,8-dione (IQD). The formal potentials for both QD and IQD at pH 7.0 were -0.07 V vs. Ag|AgCl|sat. KCl. The logarithms of the electron exchange rate constants (k2/(M-1 s-1)) between QD/IQD and FAD-GDH were 7.7 ± 0.1 and 7.4 ± 0.1 for QD and IQD, respectively, which are the highest value among the water-soluble mediators for FAD-GDH reported to date. Disposable amperometric glucose sensors were fabricated by dropping FAD-GDH and QD or IQD onto a test strip. The sensor achieved a linear response up to glucose concentrations of 55.5 mM. The linear response was obtained even when the mediator loading was low (0.5 nmol/strip); loading was only 0.2 mol% of glucose. The results proved that the response current was primarily controlled by glucose diffusion. In addition, the sensor using QD exhibited high stability over 3 months at room temperature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Xylitol is a five-carbon sugar alcohol that has numerous beneficial health properties. It has almost the same sweetness as sucrose but has lower energy value compared to the sucrose. Metabolism of xylitol is insulin independent and thus it is an ideal sweetener for diabetics. It is widely used in food products, oral and personal care, and animal nutrition as well. Here we present a two-stage strategy to produce bio-xylitol from D-xylose using a recombinant Pichia pastoris expressing a heterologous xylose reductase gene. The recombinant P. pastoris cells were first generated by a low-cost, standard procedure. The cells were then used as a catalyst to make the bio-xylitol from D-xylose. RESULTS Pichia pastoris expressing XYL1 from P. stipitis and gdh from B. subtilis demonstrated that the biotransformation was very efficient with as high as 80% (w/w) conversion within two hours. The whole cells could be re-used for multiple rounds of catalysis without loss of activity. Also, the cells could directly transform D-xylose in a non-detoxified hemicelluloses hydrolysate to xylitol at 70% (w/w) yield. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated here that the recombinant P. pastoris expressing xylose reductase could transform D-xylose, either in pure form or in crude hemicelluloses hydrolysate, to bio-xylitol very efficiently. This biocatalytic reaction happened without the external addition of any NAD(P)H, NAD(P)+, and auxiliary substrate as an electron donor. Our experimental design & findings reported here are not limited to the conversion of D-xylose to xylitol only but can be used with other many oxidoreductase reactions also, such as ketone reductases/alcohol dehydrogenases and amino acid dehydrogenases, which are widely used for the synthesis of high-value chemicals and pharmaceutical intermediates.

Abstract
Production and release of organic acids and phosphatase enzymes by microbes are important for inorganic and organic phosphorus cycling in soil. The presence of microorganisms with corresponding traits in the plant rhizosphere lead to improved plant P uptake and ultimately growth promotion. We studied the potential of two rhizosphere-competent strains, Pantoea sp. MR1 and Ochrobactrum sp. SSR, for solubilization of different organic and inorganic P sources in vitro. In a pot experiment we further revealed the impact of the two strains on wheat seedling performance in soil amended with either phytate, rock phosphate or K2HPO4 as solely P source. To directly link P-solubilizing activity to the strain-specific genetic potential, we designed novel primers for glucose dehydrogenase (gcd), phosphatase (pho) and phytase (phy) genes, which are related to the organic and inorganic P solubilization potential. Quantitative tracing of these functional genes in the inoculated soils of the conducted pot experiment further allowed to compare strain abundances in the soil in dependency on the present P source. We observed strain- and P source-dependent patterns of the P solubilization in vitro as well as in the pot experiment, whereby P release, particularly from phytate, was linked to the strain abundance. We further revealed that the activity of microbial phosphatases is determined by the interplay between functional gene abundance, available soil P, and substrate availability. Moreover, positive impacts of microbial seed inoculation on wheat root architecture and aboveground growth parameters were observed. Our results suggest that screening for rhizosphere-competent strains with gcd, pho and phy genes may help to identify new microbial taxa that are able to solubilize and mineralize inorganic as well as organic bound P. Subsequently, the targeted use of corresponding strains may improve P availability in agricultural soils and consequently reduce fertilizer application.

Abstract
Background Biosynthesis of l-tert-leucine (l-tle), a significant pharmaceutical intermediate, by a cofactor regeneration system friendly and efficiently is a worthful goal all the time. The cofactor regeneration system of leucine dehydrogenase (LeuDH) and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) has showed great coupling catalytic efficiency in the synthesis of l-tle, however the multi-enzyme complex of GDH and LeuDH has never been constructed successfully. Results In this work, a novel fusion enzyme (GDH–R3–LeuDH) for the efficient biosynthesis of l-tle was constructed by the fusion of LeuDH and GDH mediated with a rigid peptide linker. Compared with the free enzymes, both the environmental tolerance and thermal stability of GDH–R3–LeuDH had a great improved since the fusion structure. The fusion structure also accelerated the cofactor regeneration rate and maintained the enzyme activity, so the productivity and yield of l-tle by GDH–R3–LeuDH was all enhanced by twofold. Finally, the space–time yield of l-tle catalyzing by GDH–R3–LeuDH whole cells could achieve 2136 g/L/day in a 200 mL scale system under the optimal catalysis conditions (pH 9.0, 30 °C, 0.4 mM of NAD+ and 500 mM of a substrate including trimethylpyruvic acid and glucose). Conclusions It is the first report about the fusion of GDH and LeuDH as the multi-enzyme complex to synthesize l-tle and reach the highest space–time yield up to now. These results demonstrated the great potential of the GDH–R3–LeuDH fusion enzyme for the efficient biosynthesis of l-tle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Blood glucose measurement is central to the diagnosis and management of patients with diabetes. Considering that a clinician relies heavily on blood (or rarely other body fluid) glucose values for decision making, an understanding of the basic aspects of glucose measurement in body fluids is necessary. METHODS A literature search was conducted in PubMed for articles in English on measurement of glucose in body fluids. RESULTS Glucose can be measured in several body fluids, namely blood, interstitial fluid, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, pleural fluid and ascitic fluid in appropriate clinical settings. For blood glucose measurement, the present-day enzymatic methods have replaced the older reducing and condensation methods on account of their better accuracy. It is important to consider preanalytical factors such as sample collection, storage and transport when analyzing a laboratory blood glucose report. The measurement of glucose in interstitial fluid using continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) enables better understanding of glucose trends and fluctuations. The CGMS data should be reported using standard metrics which include parameters such as mean 24-h glucose, glycemic variability and time-in, below and above range. The measurement of glucose in urine sample is rarely ever used these days and should be reserved for exceptional circumstances. CONCLUSION This review provides a detailed account of various aspects of glucose measurement including their evolution, pitfalls, and their utility in current clinical practice.

Abstract
A fusion enzyme composed of an Aspergillus flavus-derived flavin adenine dinucleotide glucose dehydrogenase (AfGDH) and an electron transfer domain of Phanerochaete chrysosporium-derived cellobiose dehydrogenase (Pcyb) was previously reported to show the direct electron transfer (DET) ability to an electrode. However, its slow intramolecular electron transfer (IET) rate from the FAD to the heme, limited the sensor signals. In this study, fusion FADGDH (Pcyb-AfGDH) enzymes were strategically redesigned by performing docking simulation, following surface-electrostatic potential estimation in the predicted area. Based on these predictions, we selected the amino acid substitution on Glu324, or on Asn408 to Lys to increase the positive charge at the rim of the interdomain region. Pcyb-AfGDH mutants were recombinantly produced using Pichia pastoris as the host microorganism, and their IET was evaluated. Spectroscopic observations showed that the Glu324Lys (E324K) and Asn408Lys (N408K) Pcyb-AfGDH mutants showed approximately 1.70- and 9.0-fold faster IET than that of wildtype Pcyb-AfGDH, respectively. Electrochemical evaluation revealed that the mutant Pcyb-AfGDH-immobilized electrodes showed higher DET current values than that of the wildtype Pcyb-AfGDH-immobilized electrodes at pH 6.5, which was approximately 9-fold higher in the E324K mutant and 15-fold higher in the N408K mutant, than in the wildtype. Glucose enzyme sensors employing N408K mutant was able to measure glucose concentration under physiological condition using artificial interstitial fluid at pH 7.4, whereas the one with wildtype Pcyb-AfGDH was not. These results indicated that the sensor employed the redesigned mutant Pcyb-AfGDH can be used for future continuous glucose monitoring system based on direct electron transfer principle. (247 words).

Abstract
An immobilized bi-functional redox biocatalyst was designed for the asymmetric reduction of alkenes by nicotinamide-dependent ene-reductases. The biocatalyst, which consists of co-immobilized ene-reductase and glucose dehydrogenase, was implemented in biotransformations in the presence of glucose as source of reducing equivalents and catalytic amounts of the cofactor. Enzyme co-immobilization employing glutaraldehyde activated Relizyme HA403/M as support material was performed directly from the crude cell-free extract obtained after protein overexpression in E. coli and cell lysis, avoiding enzyme purification steps. The resulting optimum catalyst showed excellent level of activity and stereoselectivity in asymmetric reduction reactions using either OYE3 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae or NCR from Zymomonas mobilis in the presence of organic cosolvents in up to 20 vol%. The bi-functional redox biocatalyst, which demonstrated remarkable reusability over several cycles, was applied in preparative-scale synthesis at 50 mM substrate concentration and provided access to three industrially relevant chiral compounds in high enantiopurity (ee up to 97 %) and in up to 42 % isolated yield. The present method highlights the potential of (co-)immobilization of ene-reductases, notorious for their poor scalability, and complements the few existing methods available for increasing productivity in asymmetric bioreduction reactions.

Abstract
In the present work, direct electron transfer (DET) based biosensing system for the determination of glucose has been fabricated by utilizing gold binding peptide (GBP) fused flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) from Burkholderia cepacia. The GBP fused FAD-GDH was immobilized on the working electrode surface of screen-printed electrode (SPE) which consists of gold working electrode, a silver pseudo-reference electrode and a platinum counter electrode, to develop the biosensing system with compact design and favorable sensing ability. The bioelectrochemical and mechanical properties of GBP fused FAD-GDH (GDH-GBP) immobilized SPE (GDH-GBP/Au) were investigated. Here, the binding affinity of GDH-GBP on Au surface, was highly increased after fusion of gold binding peptide and its uniform monolayer was formed on Au surface. In the cyclic voltammetry (CV), GDH-GBP/Au displayed significantly high oxidative peak currents corresponding to glucose oxidation which is almost c.a. 10-fold enhanced value compared with that from native GDH immobilized SPE (GDH/Au). As well, GDH-GBP/Au has shown 92.37% of current retention after successive potential scans. In the chronoamperometry, its steady-state catalytic current was monitored in various conditions. The dynamic range of GDH-GBP/Au was shown to be 3-30 mM at 30 °C and exhibits high selectivity toward glucose in whole human blood. Additionally, temperature dependency of GDH-GBP/Au on DET capability was also investigated at 30-70 °C. Considering this efficient and stable glucose sensing with simple and easy sensor fabrication, GDH-GBP based sensing platform can provide new insight for future biosensor in research fields that rely on DET.

Abstract
Every electrochemical biosensor uses two or three electrode setup, which involves sensing electrode for a specific reaction, metal/salt reference electrode (i.e., Ag/AgCl or Hg/Hg2Cl2) for the control of the potential and, is some cases, counter electrode for the compensation of the current. This setup has significant flaws related to metal/salt reference electrodes: they are bulky and difficult to miniaturize, leak electrolyte to the medium, lose the ability to define the electrochemical potential precisely in time, consequently, have to be updated or replaced. This causes problems when the biosensor cannot be easily replaced (e.g., implanted electronics). Here we present a fully enzymatic real-time glucose monitoring system capable of referencing its own electrochemical potential. Using sensing electrode composed of wired glucose dehydrogenase and enzymatic reference electrode composed of wired laccase we have created a stable and accurate electrode system, which measured fluxes in concentration of glucose in a physiological range (3-8 mM), and demonstrated performance of the designed system in undiluted human serum. In addition, our designed enzymatic reference electrode is universal and may be applied for other biosensors, thus open possibilities for the new generation of implantable devices for healthcare monitoring.

Abstract
This review discusses the physical and chemical properties of nicotinamide redox cofactor dependent glucose dehydrogenase (NAD(P) dependent GDH) and its extensive application in biosensors and bio-fuel cells. GDHs from different organisms show diverse biochemical properties (e.g., activity and stability) and preferences towards cofactors, such as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). The (NAD(P)+) play important roles in biological electron transfer, however, there are some difficulties related to their application in devices that originate from their chemical properties and labile binding to the GDH enzyme. This review discusses the electrode modifications aimed at immobilising NAD+ or NADP+ cofactors and GDH at electrodes. Binding of the enzyme was achieved by appropriate protein engineering techniques, including polymerisation, hydrophobisation or hydrophilisation processes. Various enzyme-modified electrodes applied in biosensors, enzymatic fuel cells, and biobatteries are compared. Importantly, GDH can operate alone or as part of an enzymatic cascade, which often improves the functional parameters of the biofuel cell or simply allows use of cheaper fuels. Overall, this review explores how NAD(P)-dependent GDH has recently demonstrated high potential for use in various systems to generate electricity from biological sources for applications in implantable biomedical devices, wireless sensors, and portable electronic devices.

Abstract
Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is a diphenolic compound prevalent mainly in olives with pronounced antioxidant activity and proven benefits for human health. Current production limitations have motivated studies concerning the hydroxylation of tyrosol to HT with tyrosinase; however, accumulation of the diphenol is restricted due to its rapid subsequent oxidation to 3,4-quinone-phenylethanol. In this study, a continuous two-enzyme reaction system of sol-gel-immobilized tyrosinase and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) was developed for the synthesis of HT. Purified tyrosinase from Bacillus megaterium (TyrBm) and E. coli cell extract expressing GDH from B. megaterium were encapsulated in a sol-gel matrix based on triethoxysilane precursors. While tyrosinase oxidized tyrosol to 3,4-quinone-phenylethanol, GDH catalyzed the simultaneous reduction of the cofactor NAD+ to NADH, which was the reducing agent enabling the accumulation of HT. Using 50 mM tyrosol, the immobilized system under optimized conditions, enabled a final HT yield of 7.68 g/L with productivity of 2.30 mg HT/mg TyrBm beads. Furthermore, the immobilized bi-enzyme system showed the feasibility for HT production from 1 mM tyrosol using a 0.5-L bioreactor as well as stable activity over 8 repeated cycles. The production of other diphenols with commercial importance such as L-dopa (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine) or piceatannol may be synthesized with this efficient approach.

Abstract
The history of the development of glucose sensors goes hand-in-hand with the history of the discovery and the engineering of glucose-sensing enzymes. Glucose oxidase (GOx) has been used for glucose sensing since the development of the first electrochemical glucose sensor. The principle utilizing oxygen as the electron acceptor is designated as the first-generation electrochemical enzyme sensors. With increasing demand for hand-held and cost-effective devices for the "self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG)", second-generation electrochemical sensor strips employing electron mediators have become the most popular platform. To overcome the inherent drawback of GOx, namely, the use of oxygen as the electron acceptor, various glucose dehydrogenases (GDHs) have been utilized in second-generation principle-based sensors. Among the various enzymes employed in glucose sensors, GDHs harboring FAD as the redox cofactor, FADGDHs, especially those derived from fungi, fFADGDHs, are currently the most popular enzymes in the sensor strips of second-generation SMBG sensors. In addition, the third-generation principle, employing direct electron transfer (DET), is considered the most elegant approach and is ideal for use in electrochemical enzyme sensors. However, glucose oxidoreductases capable of DET are limited. One of the most prominent GDHs capable of DET is a bacteria-derived FADGDH complex (bFADGDH). bFADGDH has three distinct subunits; the FAD harboring the catalytic subunit, the small subunit, and the electron-transfer subunit, which makes bFADGDH capable of DET. In this review, we focused on the two representative glucose sensing enzymes, fFADGDHs and bFADGDHs, by presenting their discovery, sources, and protein and enzyme properties, and the current engineering strategies to improve their potential in sensor applications.

Abstract
The kelulut bee (Meliponini) is a subfamily of stingless bees that produce honey. A total of 89 species out of a total of 500 species of kelulut bees are known to originate from the Indo-Australian region. Kelulut bees do not have quality standards so they still refer to the Codex and EU Directive which basically only applied for Apis honey. The Codex and EU Directive are formed by several psychochemical parameters, one of it is diastase activity. Diastase activity in kelulut honey is known not to meet existing standards or even undetectable. Therefore, this study aimed to explore proteins inside kelulut honey and investigate the possibility of using a specific protein as a biomarker to differentiate honey produced by kelulut bee from other honey. This research can also be considered as an initial step to optimize the exploration of protein in kelulut honey. This research is divided into two sections which are the preliminary research and the research expansion. From preliminary section, glucose dehydrogenase enzyme (GDH) was found to be present inside Tetragonula spp honey. A further examination of GDH enzyme was made in four kelulut bee honeys namely Tetragonula leaviceps, T. biroi, Heterotrigona itama, and Geniotrigona thoracica. The preliminary research has five stages that are exactly the as expansion research section except it didn't include GDH activity measurement. The research includes seven main stages. First honeys were dialyzed to remove the sugar content followed by centrifugation. The samples were then purified using liquid chromatography with anion exchanger column. The molecular weight of proteins was analysed by SDS-PAGE method. The GDH activity was measured using spectrophotometer followed by qualitative analysis using LC-MS/MS. The peptide sequences resulted from LC-MS/MS were then matched with Uniprot to identify the unknow protein. The results showed that only T. biroi and T. laeviceps had GDH enzyme activity of 0,1891 U/mL and 0,1652-1,579 U/mL, respectively. Bands from both species were also qualitatively identified as GDH. With these results, it can be concluded that the GDH enzyme cannot be used as a biomarker to distinguish the kelulut honey.

Abstract
Background Sufficient reference standards of drug metabolites are required in the drug discovery and development process. However, such drug standards are often expensive or not commercially available. Chemical synthesis of drug metabolite is often difficulty due to the highly regio- and stereo-chemically demanding. The present work aims to construct stable and efficient biocatalysts for the generation of drug metabolites in vitro. Result In this work, using benzydamine as a model drug, two easy-to-perform approaches (whole cell catalysis and enzyme immobilization) were investigated for the synthesis of FMO3-generated drug metabolites. The whole cell catalysis was carried out by using cell suspensions of E. coli JM109 harboring FMO3 and E. coli BL21 harboring GDH (glucose dehydrogenase), giving 1.2 g/L benzydamine N-oxide within 9 h under the optimized conditions. While for another approach, two HisTrap HP columns respectively carrying His6-GDH and His6-FMO3 were connected in series used for the biocatalysis. In this case, 0.47 g/L benzydamine N-oxide was generated within 2.5 h under the optimized conditions. In addition, FMO3 immobilization at the C-terminal (membrane anchor region) significantly improved its enzymatic thermostability by more than 10 times. Moreover, the high efficiency of these two biocatalytic approaches was also confirmed by the N-oxidation of tamoxifen. Conclusions The results presented in this work provides new possibilities for the drug-metabolizing enzymes-mediated biocatalysis.

Abstract
FAD-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH, EC 1.1.5.9) is an enzyme utilized industrially in glucose sensors. Previously, FAD-GDH isolated from Mucor prainii (MpGDH) was demonstrated to have high substrate specificity for glucose. However, MpGDH displays poor thermostability and is inactivated after incubation at 45 °C for only 15 min, which prevents its use in industrial applications, especially in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems. Therefore, in this study, a chimeric MpGDH (Mr144-297) was engineered from the glucose-specific MpGDH and the highly thermostable FAD-GDH obtained from Mucor sp. RD056860 (MrdGDH). Mr144-297 demonstrated significantly higher heat resistance, with stability at even 55 °C. In addition, Mr144-297 maintained both high affinity and accurate substrate specificity for D-glucose. Furthermore, eight mutation sites that contributed to improved thermal stability and increased productivity in Escherichia coli were identified. Collectively, chimerization of FAD-GDHs can be an effective method for the construction of an FAD-GDH with greater stability, and the chimeric FAD-GDH described herein could be adapted for use in continuous glucose monitoring sensors.

Various immobilization methods were screened and the cross-linking approach with diatomite and polyetherimide as the raw materials and glutaraldehyde as the cross-linking agent was the optimal one, and the recovery activity reached of 80.3% after immobilization. The half-life of immobilized cells was 1.52 times to that of free cells. Batch experiments showed that the enzyme activity of immobilized cells remained 70.5% of the initial activity after 10 batches and the space-time yield of xylitol reached of 11.5 g/(L h). The production of xylitol from xylose mother liquor by immobilized E. coli cells containing xylose reductase and glucose dehydrogenase was reported for the first time, which paved a foundation for industrial production of xylitol from waste xylose mother liquor.

Abstract
Rhizobium sp. RM and RS are Vigna radiata root nodule isolates with the ability to solubilize tricalcium phosphate and rock phosphate under 50 mM Tris-Cl buffering conditions. Rhizobium sp. RM and RS were unique as they could produce two different organic acids, gluconic acid and oxalic acid using glucose and arabinose, respectively, which are two of the most prominent sugars present in the rhizospheric soil. However, P solubilization in these isolates was repressed in the presence of succinate resembling the phenomenon of catabolite repression. RM and RS produced 24 mM and 20 mM gluconic acid in presence of glucose which was repressed to 10 mM and 8 mM, respectively, in glucose + succinate conditions. Similarly, RM and RS produced 28 mM and 23 mM oxalic acid in arabinose containing media which was repressed to 9 mM and 8 mM, respectively, in the presence of arabinose + succinate. Results of enzyme activities indicated 66% repression of quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase in glucose + succinate compared to glucose grown cells and 84% repression of glyoxylate oxidase in arabinose + succinate compared to arabinose grown cells. This is perhaps the first report on mechanism of P solubilization in rhizobia through utilization of two different sugars, glucose and arabinose and its repression by succinate. Succinate-mediated catabolite repression of arabinose is the unique aspect of this study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Saccharomyces cerevisiae AN120 osw2∆ spores were used as a host with good resistance to unfavorable environment. This work was undertaken to develop a new yeast spore-encapsulation of Candida parapsilosis Glu228Ser/(S)-carbonyl reductase II and Bacillus sp. YX-1 glucose dehydrogenase for efficient chiral synthesis in organic solvents. RESULTS The spore microencapsulation of E228S/SCR II and GDH in S. cerevisiae AN120 osw2∆ catalyzed (R)-phenylethanol in a good yield with an excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99%) within 4 h. It presented good resistance and catalytic functions under extreme temperature and pH conditions. The encapsulation produced several chiral products with over 70% yield and over 99% enantioselectivity in ethyl acetate after being recycled for 4-6 times. It increased substrate concentration over threefold and reduced the reaction time two to threefolds compared to the recombinant Escherichia coli containing E228S and glucose dehydrogenase. CONCLUSIONS This work first described sustainable enantioselective synthesis without exogenous cofactors in organic solvents using yeast spore-microencapsulation of coupled alcohol dehydrogenases.

Abstract
Fungi-derived flavin adenine dinucleotide glucose dehydrogenases (FADGDHs) are currently the most popular and advanced enzymes for self-monitoring of blood glucose sensors; however, the achievement of direct electron transfer (DET) with FADGDHs is difficult. In this study, a designer FADGDH was constructed by fusing Aspergillus flavus derived FADGDH (AfGDH) and a Phanerochaete chrisosporium CDH (PcCDH)-derived heme b-binding cytochrome domain to develop a novel FADGDH that is capable of direct electron transfer with an electrode. A structural prediction suggested that the heme in the CDH may exist in proximity to the FAD of AfGDH if the heme b-binding cytochrome domain is fused to the AfGDH N-terminal region. Spectroscopic observations of recombinantly produced designer FADGDH confirmed the intramolecular electron transfer between FAD and the heme. A decrease in pH and the presence of a divalent cation improved the intramolecular electron transfer. An enzyme electrode with the immobilized designer FADGDH showed an increase in current immediately after the addition of glucose in a glucose concentration-dependent manner, whereas those with wild-type AfGDH did not show an increase in current. Therefore, the designer FADGDH was confirmed to be a novel GDH that possesses electrode DET ability. The difference in the surface electrostatic potentials of AfGDH and the catalytic domain of PcCDH might be why their intramolecular electron transfer ability is inferior to that of CDH. These relevant and consistent findings provide us with a novel strategic approach for the improvement of the DET properties of designer FADGDH. (241 words).

Abstract
Fungal FAD-dependent glucose dehydrogenases (FADGDHs) are considered to be superior enzymes for glucose sensor strips because of their insensitivity to oxygen and maltose. One highly desirable mediator for enzyme sensor strips is hexaammineruthenium(III) chloride because of its low redox potential and high storage stability. However, in contrast to glucose oxidase (GOx), fungal FADGDH cannot utilize hexaammineruthenium(III) as electron acceptor. Based on strategic structure comparison between FADGDH and GOx, we constructed a mutant of Aspergillus flavus-derived FADGDH, capable of utilizing hexaammineruthenium(III) as electron acceptor: AfGDH-H403D. In AfGDH-H403D, a negative charge introduced at the pathway-entrance leading to the FAD attracts the positively charged hexaammineruthenium(III) and guides it into the pathway. The corresponding amino acid in wild-type GOx is negatively charged, which explains the ability of GOx to utilize hexaammineruthenium(III) as electron acceptor. Electrochemical measurements showed a response current of 46.0 μA for 10 mM glucose with AfGDH-H403D and hexaammineruthenium(III), similar to that with wild-type AfGDH and ferricyanide (47.8 μA). Therefore, AfGDH-H403D is suitable for constructing enzyme electrode strips with hexaammineruthenium(III) chloride as sole mediator. Utilization of this new, improved fungal FADGDH should lead to the development of sensor strips for blood glucose monitoring with increased accuracy and less stringent packing requirements.

Abstract
The CAZy auxiliary activity family 3 (AA3) comprises enzymes from the glucose-methanol-choline (GMC) family of oxidoreductases, which assist the activity of other AA family enzymes via their reaction products or support the action of glycoside hydrolases in lignocellulose degradation. The AA3 family is further divided into four subfamilies, which include cellobiose dehydrogenase, glucose oxidoreductases, aryl-alcohol oxidase, alcohol (methanol) oxidase, and pyranose oxidoreductases. These different enzymes catalyze a wide variety of redox reactions with respect to substrates and co-substrates. The common feature of AA3 family members is the formation of key metabolites such as H2O2 or hydroquinones, which are required by other AA enzymes. The multiplicity of enzymatic functions in the AA3 family is reflected by the multigenicity of AA3 genes in fungi, which also depends on their lifestyle. We provide an overview of the phylogenetic, molecular, and catalytic properties of AA3 enzymes and discuss their interactions with other carbohydrate-active enzymes.

Abstract
Two new inorganic-organic hybrid materials based on heteropolyoxometalates (POMs): (C4H10N)6[P2Mo18O62]·4H2O (P2Mo18) and (C6H8NO)4[H2P2W18O62]·6H2O (P2W18) are reported as mediators for electron transfer between FAD-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) and a multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) matrix for glucose biofuel cell and biosensor applications. These polyoxometalates were chosen due to their promising redox behavior in a potential range for mediated electron transfer with the glucose oxidizing enzyme, FAD-GDH. P2Mo18 and P2W18 were immobilized on 1-pyrenemethylamine (PMA) functionalized MWCNT deposits. After immobilization of FAD-GDH, the P2W18-modified MWCNT electrode demonstrated mediated electron transfer and provided a catalytic current density of 0.34 mA cm-2 at 0.2 V vs SCE with an open circuit potential (OCP) of -0.08 V vs SCE. A 10-fold increase in catalytic current to 4.7 mA cm-2 at 0.2 V vs SCE and a slightly lower OCP of -0.10 V vs SCE was observed for an equivalent electrode modified with P2Mo18.The apparent superiority of P2Mo18 is related, at least in part, to its improved incorporation in the MWCNT matrix compared to P2W18. Both POM-modified bioanodes showed exceptional stabilities with 45% of their initial performances remaining after 15 days. The mediated electron transfer capacities of the POMs were also evaluated in a glucose sensor setup and showed very satisfying performances for glucose detection, including a sensitivity of 0.198 mA mol L-1 cm-2, a satisfying linear range between 1 mmol L-1 and 20 mmol L-1, and good reproducibility for the P2Mo18 electrode.

Abstract
(S)-3-chloro-1-phenyl-1-propanol ((S)-CPPO) is an important chiral intermediate predominantly used in the synthesis of the chiral side chain of (S)-fluoxetine. In this study, carbonyl reductase (CBR) from Novosphingobium aromaticivorans was successfully expressed in recombinant E. coli. The enzymatic activity of the recombinant CBR was significantly increased to 1875 U/mL in the fed-batch fermentation in a 10 L fermenter and recombinant CBR was then purified and characterized. By regenerating NADH with glucose dehydrogenase, 100 g/L 3-chloro-1-phenyl-1-propanone (3-CPP) was successfully converted to (S)-CPPO with a conversion of 100% and ee value of 99.6% after 12 h at 30 °C in PBS buffer (pH 7.0), which are the highest reported to date for the bio-production of (S)-CPPO and presented great potential for green production of (S)-CPPO at industrial scale.

Abstract
Electrochemically-active polymers (redox polymers) are useful tools for simultaneous immobilization and electron transfer of enzymes at electrode surfaces, which also serve to increase the localized concentration of the biocatalyst. The properties of the employed redox couple must be compatible with the target biocatalyst from both an electrochemical (potential) and biochemical standpoint. This chapter details the synthesis of a naphthoquinone-functionalized redox polymer (NQ-LPEI) that is used to immobilize and electronically communicate with flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH), yielding an enzymatic bioanode that is able to deliver large catalytic current densities for glucose oxidation at a relatively low associated potential.

Abstract
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus (Fallen), is a serious pest insect of rice, wheat, and maize in China. SBPH not only sucks plant sap but also transmits plant disease viruses, causing serious damage. These viruses include rice striped virus disease (RSV disease), black streaked dwarf, and maize rough disease virus. SBPH outbreaks are related to the overuse of pesticides in China. Some pesticides, such as triazophos, stimulate the reproduction of SBPH, but an antibiotic fungicide jinggangmycin (JGM) suppresses its reproduction. However, mechanisms of decreased reproduction of SBPH induced by JGM remain unclear. The present findings show that JGM suppressed reproduction of SBPH (↓approximately 35.7%) and resulted in the down-regulated expression of glucose dehydrogenase (GDH). GDH-silenced control females (control+dsGDH) show that the number of eggs laid was reduced by 48.6% compared to control females. Biochemical tests show that the total lipid and fatty acid contents in JGM-treated and control+dsGDH females decreased significantly. Thus, we propose that the suppression of reproduction in SBPH induced by JGM is mediated by GDH via metabolic pathways.

Abstract
Glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) is an oxidoreductase enzyme and is used as a biocatalyst to regenerate NAD(P)H in reductase-mediated chiral synthesis reactions. In this study, the glucose 1-dehydrogenase B gene (gdhB) was cloned from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki, and wild-type (GDH-BTWT) and His-tagged (GDH-BTN-His, GDH-BTC-His) enzymes were produced in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). All enzymes were produced in the soluble forms from E. coli. GDH-BTWT and GDH-BTN-His showed high specific enzymatic activities of 6.6 U/mg and 5.5 U/mg, respectively, whereas GDH-BTC-His showed a very low specific enzymatic activity of 0.020 U/mg. These results suggest that the intact C-terminal carboxyl group is important for GDH-BT activity. GDH-BTWT was stable up to 65°C, whereas GDH-BTN-His and GDH-BTC-His were stable up to 45°C. Gel permeation chromatography showed that GDH-BTWT is a dimer, whereas GDH-BTN-His and GDH-BTC-His are monomeric. These results suggest that the intact N- and C-termini are required for GDH-BT to maintain thermostability and to form its dimer structure. The homology model of the GDH-BTWT single subunit was constructed based on the crystal structure of Bacillus megaterium GDH (PDB ID 3AY6), showing that GDH-BTWT has a Rossmann fold structure with its N- and C-termini located on the subunit surface, which suggests that His-tagging affected the native dimer structure. GDH-BTWT and GDH-BTN-His regenerated NADPH in a yeast reductase-mediated chiral synthesis reaction, suggesting that these enzymes can be used as catalysts in fine-chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
The obligatory aerobic acetic acid bacterium Gluconobacter oxydans incompletely oxidizes carbon sources regio- and stereoselectively in the periplasm and therefore is used industrially for oxidative biotransformations, e. g., in vitamin C production. However, it has a very low biomass yield as the oxidized products largely remain in the medium and cannot be used for anabolism. Cytoplasmic carbon metabolism occurs via the pentose phosphate pathway and the Entner-Doudoroff pathway, whereas glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle are incomplete. Acetate is formed as an end product via pyruvate decarboxylase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. In order to increase the biomass yield from glucose, we sequentially replaced (i) gdhS encoding the cytoplasmic NADP-dependent glucose dehydrogenase by the Acetobacter pasteurianus sdhCDABE genes for succinate dehydrogenase and the flavinylation factor SdhE (strain IK001), (ii) pdc encoding pyruvate decarboxylase by a second ndh gene encoding a type II NADH dehydrogenase (strain IK002.1), and (iii) gdhM encoding the membrane-bound PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase by sucCD from Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus encoding succinyl-CoA synthetase (strain IK003.1). Analysis of the strains under controlled cultivation conditions in bioreactors revealed for IK003.1 that neither gluconate nor 2-ketogluconate was formed, but some 5-ketogluconate. Acetate formation was eliminated, and comparable amounts of pyruvate were formed instead. CO2 formation by IK003.1 was more than doubled compared to the reference strain. Growth of IK003.1 was retarded, but the biomass yield of this strain was raised by 60%. IK003.1 serves as suitable host for oxidative biotransformations and for further metabolic engineering.

Abstract
(4S)-3-[(5S)-5-(4-Fluorophenyl)-5-hydroxypentanoyl]-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one ((S)-ET-5) is an important chiral intermediate in the synthesis of chiral side chain of ezetimibe. Recombinant Escherichia coli expressing carbonyl reductase (CBR) was successfully constructed in this study. The total E. coli biomass and the specific activity of recombinant CBR in 5L fermenter culture were 10.9gDCWL-1 and 14900.3Ug-1DCW, respectively. The dual-enzyme coupled biocatalytic process in an aqueous-organic biphasic solvent system was first constructed using p-xylene as the optimal organic phase under optimized reaction conditions, and 150gL-1 (4S)-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,5-dioxophentyl]-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one (ET-4) was successfully converted to (S)-ET-5 with a conversion of 99.1% and diastereomeric excess of 99% after 24-h, which are the highest values reported to date for the production of (S)-ET-5.

Abstract
Aneurinibacillus aneurinilyticus strain CKMV1 was isolated from rhizosphere of Valeriana jatamansi and possessed multiple plant growth promoting traits like production of phosphate solubilization (260 mg/L), nitrogen fixation (202.91 nmol ethylene mL−1 h−1), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) (8.1 μg/mL), siderophores (61.60%), HCN (hydrogen cyanide) production and antifungal activity. We investigated the ability of isolate CKMV1 to solubilize insoluble P via mechanism of organic acid production. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) study showed that isolate CKMV1 produced mainly gluconic (1.34%) and oxalic acids. However, genetic evidences for nitrogen fixation and phosphate solubilization by organic acid production have been reported first time for A. aneurinilyticus strain CKMV1. A unique combination of glucose dehydrogenase (gdh) gene and pyrroloquinoline quinone synthase (pqq) gene, a cofactor of gdh involved in phosphate solubilization has been elucidated. Nitrogenase (nif H) gene for nitrogen fixation was reported from A. aneurinilyticus. It was notable that isolate CKMV1 exhibited highest antifungal against Sclerotium rolfsii (93.58%) followed by Fusarium oxysporum (64.3%), Dematophora necatrix (52.71%), Rhizoctonia solani (91.58%), Alternaria sp. (71.08%) and Phytophthora sp. (71.37%). Remarkable increase was observed in seed germination (27.07%), shoot length (42.33%), root length (52.6%), shoot dry weight (62.01%) and root dry weight (45.7%) along with NPK (0.74, 0.36, 1.82%) content of tomato under net house condition. Isolate CKMV1 possessed traits related to plant growth promotion, therefore, could be a potential candidate for the development of biofertiliser or biocontrol agent and this is the first study to include the Aneurinibacillus as PGPR.

Abstract
Background (R)-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl] ethanol [(R)-3,5-BTPE] is a valuable chiral intermediate for Aprepitant (Emend) and Fosaprepitant (Ivemend). Biocatalyzed asymmetric reduction is a preferred approach to synthesize highly optically active (R)-3,5-BTPE. However, the product concentration and productivity of reported (R)-3,5-BTPE synthetic processes remain unsatisfied. Results A NADPH-dependent carbonyl reductase from Lactobacillus kefir (LkCR) was discovered by genome mining for reduction of 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) acetophenone (3,5-BTAP) into (R)-3,5-BTPE with excellent enantioselectivity. In order to synthesize (R)-3,5-BTPE efficiently, LkCR was coexpressed with glucose dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsGDH) for NADPH regeneration in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells, and the optimal recombinant strain produced 250.3 g/L (R)-3,5-BTPE with 99.9% ee but an unsatisfied productivity of 5.21 g/(L h). Then, four different linker peptides were used for the fusion expression of LkCR and BsGDH in E. coli to regulate catalytic efficiency of the enzymes and improved NADPH-recycling efficiency. Using the best strain (E. coli/pET-BsGDH-ER/K(10 nm)-LkCR), up to 297.3 g/L (R)-3,5-BTPE with enantiopurity >99.9% ee was produced via reduction of as much as 1.2 M of substrate with a 96.7% yield and productivity of 29.7 g/(L h). Conclusions Recombinant E. coli/pET-BsGDH-ER/K(10 nm)-LkCR was developed for the bioreduction of 3,5-BTAP to (R)-3,5-BTPE, offered the best results in terms of high product concentration and productivity, demonstrating its great potential in industrial manufacturing of (R)-3,5-BTPE.

Abstract
DNA methylation level at a certain gene region is considered as a new type of biomarker for diagnosis and its miniaturized and rapid detection system is required for diagnosis. Here we have developed a simple electrochemical detection system for DNA methylation using methyl CpG-binding domain (MBD) and a glucose dehydrogenase (GDH)-fused zinc finger protein. This analytical system consists of three steps: (1) methylated DNA collection by MBD, (2) PCR amplification of a target genomic region among collected methylated DNA, and (3) electrochemical detection of the PCR products using a GDH-fused zinc finger protein. With this system, we have successfully measured the methylation levels at the promoter region of the androgen receptor gene in 106 copies of genomic DNA extracted from PC3 and TSU-PR1 cancer cell lines. Since no sequence analysis or enzymatic digestion is required for this detection system, DNA methylation levels can be measured within 3h with a simple procedure.

Abstract
In this work, a core-shell quantum dot (QD, ZnS-CdS) was electrodeposited onto multiwalled carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode (ZnS-CdS/MWCNT/GCE) and following glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) was immobilized onto QD modified electrode. The proposed electrode (GDH/ZnS-CdS/MWCNT/GCE) was effectively used for the photoelectrochemical biosensing of glucose in flow injection analysis (FIA) system using a home-made flow cell. Results from cyclic voltammetric and FI amperometric measurements have revealed that GDH/ZnS-CdS/MWCNT/GCE is capable of signaling photoelectrocatalytic activity toward NADH when the surface of enzyme modified electrode was irradiated with a light source (250W Halogen lamp). Thus, photoelectrochemical biosensing of glucose was monitored by recording current-time curve of enzymatically produced NADH at optimized conditions. The biosensor response was found linear over the range 0.010-2.0mM glucose with detection limits of 6.0 and 4.0μM for amperometric and photoamperometric methods, respectively. The relative standard deviations (n=5) for 0.5mM glucose were 5.8% and 3.8% for photoamperometric and amperometric results, respectively. The photoelectrochemical biosensor was successfully applied to the real samples. The results with this biosensor showed good selectivity, repeatability and sensitivity for monitoring glucose in amperometric and photoamperometric FIA studies.

Abstract
Several bacterial flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-harboring dehydrogenase complexes comprise three distinct subunits: a catalytic subunit with FAD, a cytochrome c subunit containing three hemes, and a small subunit. Owing to the cytochrome c subunit, these dehydrogenase complexes have the potential to transfer electrons directly to an electrode. Despite various electrochemical applications and engineering studies of FAD-dependent dehydrogenase complexes, the intra/inter-molecular electron transfer pathway has not yet been revealed. In this study, we focused on the conserved Cys-rich region in the catalytic subunits using the catalytic subunit of FAD dependent glucose dehydrogenase complex (FADGDH) as a model, and site-directed mutagenesis and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) were performed. By co-expressing a hitch-hiker protein (γ-subunit) and a catalytic subunit (α-subunit), FADGDH γα complexes were prepared, and the properties of the catalytic subunit of both wild type and mutant FADGDHs were investigated. Substitution of the conserved Cys residues with Ser resulted in the loss of dye-mediated glucose dehydrogenase activity. ICP-AEM and EPR analyses of the wild-type FADGDH catalytic subunit revealed the presence of a 3Fe-4S-type iron-sulfur cluster, whereas none of the Ser-substituted mutants showed the EPR spectrum characteristic for this cluster. The results suggested that three Cys residues in the Cys-rich region constitute an iron-sulfur cluster that may play an important role in the electron transfer from FAD (intra-molecular) to the multi-heme cytochrome c subunit (inter-molecular) electron transfer pathway. These features appear to be conserved in the other three-subunit dehydrogenases having an FAD cofactor.

Abstract
This study investigated an enzymatic biofuel cell (BFC) which can be backpacked by cockroaches. The BFC generates electric power from trehalose in insect hemolymph by the trehalase and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) reaction systems which dehydrogenate β-glucose obtained by hydrolyzing trehalose. First, an insect-mountable BFC (imBFC) was designed and fabricated with a 3D printer. The electrochemical reaction of anode-modified poly-L-lysine, vitamin K3, diaphorase, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, GDH and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) in the imBFC was evaluated and an oxidation current of 1.18 mAcm(-2) (at +0.6 V vs. Ag|AgCl) was observed. Then, the performance of the imBFC was evaluated and a maximum power output of 333 μW (285 μW cm(-)(2)) (at 0.5 V) was obtained. Furthermore, driving of both an LED device and a wireless temperature and humidity sensor device were powered by the imBFC. These results indicate that the imBFC has sufficient potential as a battery for novel ubiquitous robots such as insect cyborgs.

Abstract
The rhizospheric zone abutting plant roots usually clutches a wealth of microbes. In the recent past, enormous genetic resources have been excavated with potential applications in host plant interaction and ancillary aspects. Two Pseudomonas strains were isolated and identified through 16S rRNA and rpoD sequence analyses as P. fluorescens QAU67 and P. putida QAU90. Initial biochemical characterization and their root-colonizing traits indicated their potential role in plant growth promotion. Such aerobic systems, involved in gluconic acid production and phosphate solubilization, essentially require the pyrroloquinoline quinine (PQQ)- dependent glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) in the genome. The PCR screening and amplification of GDH and PQQ and subsequent induction of mutagenesis characterized their possible role as antioxidants as well as in growth promotion, as probed in vitro in lettuce and in vivo in rice, bean, and tomato plants. The results showed significant differences (p < or = 0.05) in parameters of plant height, fresh weight, and dry weight, etc., deciphering a clear and in fact complementary role of GDH and PQQ in plant growth promotion. Our study not only provides direct evidence of the in vivo role of GDH and PQQ in host plants but also reveals their functional inadequacy in the event of mutation at either of these loci.

Abstract
Glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) is of interest for its potential applications in the field of glucose sensors. To improve the performance of glucose sensors, GDH is required to have strict substrate specificity. A novel flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent GDH was isolated from Mucor prainii NISL0103 and its enzymatic properties were characterized. This FAD-dependent GDH (MpGDH) exhibited high specificity toward glucose. High specificity for glucose was also observed even in the presence of saccharides such as maltose, galactose and xylose. The molecular masses of the glycoforms of GDH ranged from 90 to 130 kDa. After deglycosylation, a single 80 kDa band was observed. The gene encoding MpGDH was cloned and expressed in Aspergillus sojae. The apparent kcat and Km values of recombinant enzyme for glucose were found to be 749.7 s(-1) and 28.3 mM, respectively. The results indicated that the characteristics of MpGDH were suitable for assaying blood glucose levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucose dehydrogenases have been highly promoted to high-accuracy blood glucose (BG) monitors. The flavin adenine dinucleotide glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) and mutant variant of quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase (Mut. Q-GDH) are widely used in high-performance BG monitors for multi-patient use. Therefore we conducted accuracy evaluation of the GDH monitors, FAD-GDH-based GM700 and Mut. Q-GDH-based Performa. METHODS Different patients were enrolled: patients with and without diabetes, patients receiving respiratory therapies, hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, and neonates. The accuracy evaluation of FAD-GDH- and Mut. Q-GDH-based monitors referred to ISO 15197:2013 which applies new criteria for the minion accuracy requirements: more than 95% of the blood glucose readings shall fall within ±15mg/dL of the reference method at glucose concentration <100mg/dL and within ±15% of the reference method at glucose concentration ≥100mg/dL. Bland-Altman plots were used to evaluate the 2 GDH monitors as well. RESULTS Bland-Altman plots visualized excellent precision of the BG monitors. The 95% limit agreement of overall results for the FAD-GDH-based monitors was within ±12% and that for the Mut. Q-GDH-based monitors was from -10 to +17%. Both BG monitors met the accuracy requirements of ISO 15197:2013. The FAD-GDH-based monitor performed better with neonates and patients with and without diabetes, and the Mut. Q-GDH-based monitor performed better with HD and PD patients. CONCLUSIONS Analytical results prove that the GDH-based monitors tolerate a broad BG concentration range, are oxygen independent, have BG specificity, and have minimal interference from hematocrit. The GDH-based monitors are reliable for multi-patient use.
