Article Synopsis
  • Creating specific structures in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can boost the performance of embedded enzymes, with defects being a useful enhancement.
  • Traditional methods for inducing defects often require additional substances, but this study introduces a novel approach to prepare defective MAF-7 by changing the order of reactant addition without those extras.
  • The resulting framework shows significantly improved enzyme activities, particularly for microcystinase A, lysozyme, and horseradish peroxidase, highlighting a simple method to enhance enzyme function through defect formation.

The Brain Age Gap (BAG), which refers to the difference between chronological age and predicted neuroimaging age, is proposed as a potential biomarker for age-related brain degeneration. However, existing brain age prediction models usually rely on a single marker and can not discover meaningful hidden information in radiographic images. This study focuses on the application of radiomics, an advanced imaging analysis technique, combined with automated machine learning to predict BAG.

Removing microcystins (MCs) safely and effectively has become an urgent global problem because of their extremely hazardous to the environment and public health. Microcystinases derived from indigenous microorganisms have received widespread attention due to their specific MC biodegradation function. However, linearized MCs are also very toxic and need to be removed from the water environment.

Introduction: The bulb of , a traditional cough and expectorant medicine, is usually harvested from June to September according to traditional cultivation experience, without practical scientific guidance. Although steroidal alkaloid metabolites have been identified in , the dynamic changes in their levels during bulb development and their molecular regulatory mechanisms are poorly understood.

Methods: In this study, integrative analyses of the bulbus phenotype, bioactive chemical investigations, and metabolome and transcriptome profiles were performed to systematically explore the variations in steroidal alkaloid metabolite levels and identify the genes modulating their accumulation and the corresponding regulatory mechanisms.

Harmful blooms (HMBs) and microcystins (MCs) that are produced by  seriously threaten water ecosystems and human health. This study demonstrates an eco-friendly strategy for simultaneous removal of MCs and HMBs by adopting unique hyperoxic graphene oxides (HGOs) as carrier and pure microcystinase A (PMlrA) as connecting bridge to form stable HGOs@MlrA composite. After oxidation, HGOs yield inherent structural strain effects for boosting the immobilization of MlrA by material characterization and density functional theory calculations.

Two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskite material is characterized by a mixed conducting behavior that possesses both electronic and ionic conductivity. The study on the influence of the light on ion migration in the 2D perovskite is helpful to improve the performance of perovskite-based optoelectronic devices. Here, we constructed an exfoliated 2D perovskite/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) heterostructure optical synapse, in which CNTs can be used as nanoprobes to qualitatively observe the ion aggregation or dissipation process in 2D perovskite, and found that light significantly changes the memory curve of the reconfigurable optical synapses.
