Catalytic and physicochemical properties of representative fungal dye-decolorizing peroxidases (DyPs) of wood- (WRF) and litter-decomposing white-rot fungi (LDF) are summarized and compared, including one recombinant Mycetinis scorodonius DyP (rMscDyP; LDF), the wild-type Auricularia auricula-judae DyP (AauDyP; WRF), and two new DyPs secreted by the jelly fungi Exidia glandulosa (EglDyP; WRF) and Mycena epipterygia (MepDyP; LDF). Homogeneous preparations of these DyPs were obtained after different steps of fast protein liquid chromatography, and they increase the total number of characterized fungal DyP proteins to eight. The peptide sequences of AauDyP, MepDyP, and EglDyP showed highest homologies (52-56%) to the DyPs of M. scorodonius. Five out of the eight characterized fungal DyPs were used to evaluate their catalytic properties compared to classic fungal and plant heme peroxidases, namely lignin peroxidase of Phanerochaete chrysosporium (PchLiP; WRF), versatile peroxidase of Bjerkandera adusta (BadVP; WRF), and generic peroxidases of Coprinopsis cinerea (CiP) and Glycine max (soybean peroxidase=SBP). All DyPs tested possess unique properties regarding the stability at low pH values: 50-90% enzymatic activity remained after 4-h exposition at pH 2.5, and the oxidation of nonphenolic aromatic substrates (lignin model compounds) was optimal below pH 3. Furthermore, all DyPs efficiently oxidized recalcitrant dyes (e.g., Azure B) as well as the phenolic substrate 2,6-dimethoxyphenol. Thus, DyPs combine features of different peroxidases on the functional level and may be part of the biocatalytic system secreted by fungi for the oxidation of lignin and/or toxic aromatic compounds.

Here, we show that the replacement of the distal residues Asp and/or Arg of the DyP peroxidases from Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas putida results in functional enzymes, albeit with spectroscopically perturbed active sites. All the enzymes can be activated either by the addition of exogenous HO or by in situ electrochemical generation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) OH, O and HO. The latter method leads to broader and upshifted pH-activity profiles.

The binary solution (sucrose/erythritol solution) and ternary solution (compound sucrose/erythritol with maltitol/fructooligosaccharide) were prepared as osmotic dehydration (OD) pretreatment before hot-pump-dried (HPD). Based on the analysis of OD solutions, the analysis of quality of dehydrated yellow peach slices (DYPS) were emphasized on the soluble sugar content, macro-µ-structure and thermal stability. Following with sucrose and maltitol (SM)-OD pretreatment, DYPS showed the decreased free sugar content and improved cohesiveness (0.

The most abundant encapsulin cargo class are Dye-decolorizing Peroxidases (DyPs). It has been previously suggested that DyP encapsulins are involved in oxidative stress resistance and bacterial pathogenicity due to DyPs' inherent ability to reduce and detoxify hydrogen peroxide while oxidizing a broad range of organic co-substrates.

Juvenile parkinsonism is an exceedingly rare condition in which clinical signs of parkinsonism manifest before 21 years of age. Although the genetic underpinnings of this disorder are increasingly recognized, the full range of inherited metabolic contributors remains undefined. We present the first case of levodopa-responsive juvenile parkinsonism associated with dihydropyrimidinase deficiency caused by a novel DPYS variant.
