The p25 protein encoded by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) RNA-3 is a pathogenicity determinant that has been implicated in symptom exacerbation on Chenopodiaceae hosts. Several p25 variants exist within natural isolates and p25 sequence variation may influence the degree of pathogenicity of such BNYVV isolates. Expression of p25 from natural A- and P-type isolates in the background of B-type BNYVV cDNA clones gave symptom discrepancies when compared to B-type p25 expression. Such pathogenicity fluctuation was not due to a different subcellular localization of p25 but was correlated with the nature of the tetrad motif present between amino acid residues 67-70, as well as with the capacity of p25 to self-associate and to activate transcription in a yeast one-hybrid system. Our data suggest that the complete sequence of p25 is required for its functions and the identified sequence variations may contribute to correct folding of the protein.

Additive Manufacturing (AM) was evaluated as a promising technology for constructing photocatalytic reactors due to its inherent ability to produce complex geometries with high precision and customization. In this work, a 3D structure was designed to achieve a good light distribution inside a cylindrical batch reactor and printed using the stereolithography (SLA) technique. A hybrid material composed of a commercial photoreactive resin (Formlabs Clear V4) and the benchmark photocatalyst TiO P25 Evonik (1 wt%) was prepared and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and rheological and mechanical methods.

Bilayer TiO/Mo-BiVO Photoelectrocatalysts for Ibuprofen Degradation.

Materials (Basel)

January 2025

Section of Condensed Matter Physics, Department of Physics, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, University Campus, 15784 Athens, Greece.

Heterojunction formation between BiVO nanomaterials and benchmark semiconductor photocatalysts has been keenly pursued as a promising approach to improve charge transport and charge separation via interfacial electron transfer for the photoelectrocatalytic degradation of recalcitrant pharmaceutical pollutants. In this work, a heterostructured TiO/Mo-BiVO bilayer photoanode was fabricated by the deposition of a mesoporous TiO overlayer using the benchmark P25 titania catalyst on top of Mo-doped BiVO inverse opal films as the supporting layer, which intrinsically absorbs visible light below 490 nm, while offering improved charge transport. A porous P25/Mo-BiVO bilayer structure was produced from the densification of the inverse opal underlayer after post-thermal annealing, which was evaluated on photocurrent generation in aqueous electrolyte and the photoelectrocatalytic degradation of the refractory anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen under back-side illumination by visible and UV-Vis light.
