Amino acids are fundamental building blocks of proteins, playing critical roles in medical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, and biomarker identification. The development of nanoscale electronic sensors capable of single-amino-acid recognition has gained significant attention due to their potential for label-free, real-time detection. In this study, we investigate the electronic transport properties of amino acids in two gold-based nanodevices with distinct architectures: a gold nanojunction and a gold-capacitor system.

Department of Neonatology, Children's Medical Center, The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University, Luzhou, China.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia is a prevalent respiratory disorder posing a significant threat to the quality of life in premature infants. Its pathogenesis is intricate, and therapeutic options are limited. Besides genetic coding, protein post-translational modification plays a pivotal role in regulating cellular function, contributing complexity and diversity to substrate proteins and influencing various cellular processes.

The expression system has been developed into a chassis for the production of heterologous lipases, attributed to its strong capabilities in protein production and secretion, robust post-translational modifications, and favourable safety profile. However, the system's relatively low expression levels remain a challenge, hindering its ability to meet the increasing demands of large-scale production. Strain C19, screened by high-throughput methods combining droplet microfluidics and flow cytometry, was demonstrated to be a potential chassis cell based on fermentation kinetic analysis and transcriptome sequencing.
