Article Abstract

We developed a facile and ultrasensitive enzymatic biofuel cell (EBFC)-based self-powered biosensor of protein kinase A (PKA) activity and inhibition via thiophosphorylation-mediated interface engineering. The detection limit was down to 0.00022 U mL-1 (S/N = 3). In addition, the PKA activities from MCF-7 and A549 cell lysates were analyzed and achieved reliable results.

The research explored the extraction of phenolic and flavonoids from Elsholtzia ciliata (Vietnamese balm) using a natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES)-based ultrasonic-enzymatic-assisted extraction (UAE-EAE) technique. A range of NADESs was evaluated to investigate the most suitable solvent system. The NADES synthesized from lactic acid and choline chloride provided the highest recovery of phenolics and flavonoids.

Laccases, belonging to the superfamily of multicopper oxidases, can perform electron oxidation on a broad range of substrates, releasing only water as a by-product. Although instability and aggregation significantly constrain the industrial use of these eco-friendly biocatalysts, it is a daunting challenge for current engineering strategies to elevate these crucial enzymatic characteristics simultaneously. Here, we developed a cyclizing laccase (CyLacc) using SpyTag/SpyCatcher technology, which endows the enzyme with high thermostability and high solubility.

The rising demand for natural products is accelerating research into sustainable methods for producing bio-based flavourings like ethyl butyrate. In this study, ethyl butyrate was successfully produced through the enzymatic esterification of butyric acid and ethanol, which were derived from the co-cultivation of Clostridium tyrobutyricum and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Initial monoculture experiments with both strains were performed to investigate compromised fermentation conditions for co-cultivation.

Waste activated sludge (WAS) represents a significant operational and environmental challenge for wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) due to its low biodegradability, attributed to extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) that hinder enzymatic hydrolysis. Electrochemical (EC) pretreatment has shown promise in improving organic matter solubilization. However, conventional systems often face limitations related to high energy demand, mineralization of organic matter and electrode degradation.
