Abstract
Cell-free systems are particularly attractive for screening applications and the production of difficult-to-express proteins. However, the production of cell lysates is difficult to implement on a larger scale due to large time requirements, cultivation costs, and the supplementation of cell-free reactions with energy regeneration systems. Consequently, the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris, which is widely used in recombinant protein production, was utilized in the present study to realize cell-free synthesis in a cost-effective manner. Sensitive disruption conditions were evaluated, and appropriate signal sequences for translocation into ER vesicles were identified. An alternative energy regeneration system based on fructose-1,6-bisphosphate was developed and a ~2-fold increase in protein production was observed. Using a statistical experiment design, the optimal composition of the cell-free reaction milieu was determined. Moreover, functional ion channels could be produced, and a G-protein-coupled receptor was site-specifically modified using the novel cell-free system. Finally, the established P. pastoris cell-free protein production system can economically produce complex proteins for biotechnological applications in a short time.

Abstract
Plastic pollution has emerged as a pressing global concern, driven by the extensive production and consumption of plastic, resulting in over 8 billion tons of plastic waste generated to date. Conventional disposal methods have proven inadequate in effectively managing polymer waste, necessitating the exploration of novel techniques. Previous research has demonstrated the successful application of photoreforming (PR) in converting water-soluble oligomer fragments of plastics into valuable chemicals. However, an unresolved challenge remains in dealing with the insoluble oligomer fragments characterized by complex chemical structures and larger molecular sizes. In this study, we propose a facile approach that involves H2PdCl4-induced activation on PET substrate for PR of PET bottles. Remarkably, this method enables the production of C1-C3 compounds without the reliance on sacrificial reagents or photocatalysts. The significant findings of this study offer a practical solution to address the most formidable aspect of plastic PR, specifically targeting the insoluble oligomer fragments. Moreover, this research contributes to the advancement of effective strategies for the sustainable management of plastic waste.

Abstract
The use of light energy to drive carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction for production of chemicals is of great significance for relieving environmental pressure and solving energy crisis. Photocapture, photoelectricity conversion and CO2 fixation are the key factors affecting the efficiency of photosynthesis, and thus also affect the efficiency of CO2 utilization. To solve the above problems, this review systematically summarizes the construction, optimization and application of light-driven hybrid system from the perspective of combining biochemistry and metabolic engineering. We introduce the latest research progress of light-driven CO2 reduction for biosynthesis of chemicals from three aspects: enzyme hybrid system, biological hybrid system and application of these hybrid system. In the aspect of enzyme hybrid system, many strategies were adopted such as improving enzyme catalytic activity and enhancing enzyme stability. In the aspect of biological hybrid system, many methods were used including enhancing biological light harvesting capacity, optimizing reducing power supply and improving energy regeneration. In terms of the applications, hybrid systems have been used in the production of one-carbon compounds, biofuels and biofoods. Finally, the future development direction of artificial photosynthetic system is prospected from the aspects of nanomaterials (including organic and inorganic materials) and biocatalysts (including enzymes and microorganisms).

Abstract
For energy supply to biomimetic constructs, a complex chemical energy-driven ATP-generating artificial system was built. The system was assembled with bottom-up detergent-mediated reconstitution of an ATP synthase and a terminal oxidase into two types of novel nanocontainers, built from either graft copolymer membranes or from hybrid graft copolymer/lipid membranes. The versatility and biocompatibility of the proposed nanocontainers was demonstrated through convenient system assembly and through high retained activity of both membrane-embedded enzymes. In the future, the nanocontainers might be used as a platform for the functional reconstitution of other complex membrane proteins and could considerably expedite the design of nanoreactors, biosensors, and artificial organelles.
