The objective of this study was to evaluate changes in phosphorus fractions during vegetable waste and chicken manure composting. High throughput sequencing, quantitative PCR, and multiple analysis methods were applied to investigate interconnections among phosphorus fractions, enzyme activity, and phoD-harboring bacterial community composition. We found the highest composting temperature reached 61 °C and phosphorus fractions presented significant differences during a 60-day composting. The content of plant-absorbable phosphorus, including water soluble phosphorus, available phosphorus, and citric acid phosphorus increased by 121%, 87%, and 63%, respectively. Additionally, phoD gene abundance significantly correlated with the activities of nine enzymes. Our findings emphasize that microbial activity plays an important role in phosphorus transformation during composting, and the final composting product could be good biological phosphorus fertilizer. To our knowledge, this is the first report indicating that enzyme activity, community composition and abundance of phoD-harboring bacteria have direct and indirect effects on phosphorus transformation during composting.

In most patients with type 1 xanthinuria caused by mutations in the xanthine dehydrogenase gene (XDH), no clinical complications, except for urinary stones, are observed. In contrast, all Xdh(- / -) mice die due to renal failure before reaching adulthood at 8 weeks of age. Hypoxanthine or xanthine levels become excessive and thus toxic in Xdh(- / -) mice because enhancing the activity of hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT), which is an enzyme that uses hypoxanthine as a substrate, slightly increases the life span of these mice.

Enzymatic hydrolysis approach is commonly employed for preparation of active peptides, while the limited purity and yield of produced peptides hinder further development of action mechanisms. This study presents the biotechnological approach for the efficient production of recombinant angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide LYPVK and investigates its potential antihypertensive action mechanism. DNA encoding sequence of recombinant peptide was designed to form in tandem, which was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3).

The limited solubility, rapid metabolism, and poor bioavailability of curcumin restrict its application. In this study, we synthesized chickpea protein isolate (CPI)-citrus pectin (CP) conjugates to prepare an emulsion delivery system that enhances the stability and bioavailability of curcumin. The CPI-CP emulsion achieved a curcumin encapsulation efficiency of 86.

As an important industrial enzyme, chymosin has been widely used in cheese manufacturing. Fermentation with Kluyveromyces lactis has allowed recombinant chymosin production to fit the growing global demand for cheese consumption; yet improvements can be made to allow for stable and larger-scale production. In this work, various chymosin producing (CP) strains were constructed via targeted chromosomal integration of various copies of a prochymosin expression cassette (PEC) using a CRISPR-Cas9 platform optimized for K.
