Media improvement for 10 L bioreactor production of rPOXA 1B laccase by .

In this work, we statistically improved culture media for rPOXA 1B laccase production, expressed in containing pGAPZαA-- construct and assayed at 10 L bioreactor production scale (6 L effective work volume). The concentrated enzyme was evaluated for temperature and pH stability and kinetic parameter, characterized by monitoring oxidation of different ABTS [2, 20-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)] substrate concentrations. Plackett-Burman experimental design (PBED) implementation improved previous work results by 3.

Detoxification of pulping black liquor with Pleurotus ostreatus or recombinant Pichia pastoris followed by CuO/TiO/visible photocatalysis.

Cellulose-pulping requires chemicals such as Cl, ClO, HO, and O. The black liquor (BL) generated exhibits a high chemical oxygen demand (COD), five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and chlorophenol content, along with an augmented colour and increased pH. BL is often discharged into water bodies, where it has a negative impact on the environment.

"In Silico" Characterization of 3-Phytase A and 3-Phytase B from .

Phytases are used for feeding monogastric animals, because they hydrolyze phytic acid generating inorganic phosphate. 3-phytase A (PDB: 3K4Q) and 3-phytase B (PDB: 1QFX) were characterized using bioinformatic tools. Results showed that both enzymes have highly conserved catalytic pockets, supporting their classification as histidine acid phosphatases.

Malachite Green and Crystal Violet Decolorization by Ganoderma lucidum and Pleurotus ostreatus Supernatant and by rGlLCC1 and rPOXA 1B Concentrates: Molecular Docking Analysis.

Laccases catalyze the oxidation of various aromatic organic compounds concomitantly with molecular oxygen reduction to water. Triphenylmethane dyes are synthetic compounds widely used in diverse industries. Their removal from effluents is difficult, due to their high degree of structural complexity; hence, their high concentration in effluents cause a negative impact on the environment.

Plackett-Burman Design for rGILCC1 Laccase Activity Enhancement in : Concentrated Enzyme Kinetic Characterization.

Laccases are multicopper oxidases that catalyze aromatic and nonaromatic compounds with concomitant reduction of molecular oxygen to water. They are of great interest due to their potential biotechnological applications. In this work we statistically improved culture media for recombinant GILCC1 (rGILCC1) laccase production at low scale from containing the construct pGAPZA--Stop in .

Bioinformatic Analysis of the Human Recombinant Iduronate 2-Sulfate Sulfatase.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type II is a human recessive disease linked to the X chromosome caused by deficiency of lysosomal enzyme Iduronate 2-Sulfate Sulfatase (IDS), which leads to accumulation of glycosaminoglycans in tissues and organs. The human enzyme has been expressed in Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris in attempt to develop more successful expression systems that allow the production of recombinant IDS for Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT). However, the preservation of native signal peptide in the sequence has caused conflicts in processing and recognition in the past, which led to problems in expression and enzyme activity.

Computational analysis and low-scale constitutive expression of laccases synthetic genes GlLCC1 from Ganoderma lucidum and POXA 1B from Pleurotus ostreatus in Pichia pastoris.

Lacasses are multicopper oxidases that can catalyze aromatic and non-aromatic compounds concomitantly with reduction of molecular oxygen to water. Fungal laccases have generated a growing interest due to their biotechnological potential applications, such as lignocellulosic material delignification, biopulping and biobleaching, wastewater treatment, and transformation of toxic organic pollutants. In this work we selected fungal genes encoding for laccase enzymes GlLCC1 in Ganoderma lucidum and POXA 1B in Pleurotus ostreatus.

Low-scale expression and purification of an active putative iduronate 2-sulfate sulfatase-Like enzyme from Escherichia coli K12.

The sulfatase family involves a group of enzymes with a large degree of similarity. Until now, sixteen human sulfatases have been identified, most of them found in lysosomes. Human deficiency of sulfatases generates various genetic disorders characterized by abnormal accumulation of sulfated intermediate compounds.
