We clarified for the first time the synthesis procedure and characterization of pantetheine trisulfide, a potential new drug. Pantetheine trisulfide is the first supersulfur compound with both thermal stability and water solubility. Its hygroscopicity and deliquescence promote the hydrolysis of trisulfide, but these limitations are overcome by powdered composites of pantetheine trisulfide with silica gel or lactose.

In this study, a thermostable β-galactosidase from OSU-PECh-4A has been isolated through diafiltration and size-exclusion chromatography. The enzyme consists of a heterodimer with a molecular mass of 110 kDa, with a small and large subunit of 36 and 74 kDa, respectively. The Michaelis constant (K) and maximum velocity (V) values for lactose and -nitrophenyl-β-d-galactopyranoside (NPG) hydrolysis were, respectively, 29.

De novo RNA-sequencing of Wolfiporia cocos mycelia cultured with filter paper composed of cellulose as the sole carbon source revealed a total of five expressed β-glucosidase genes. Among these, the β-glucosidase named Wcbg1B-1, which is composed of 539 amino acid residues and belongs to the GH1 family, had the highest mRNA abundance, accounting for 65 % of the total mRNA of the five expressed β-glucosidases. The recombinant Wcbg1B-1 was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli, with an optimal pH of 6.

Cold-adapted microorganisms possess cold-active enzymes with potential applications in different industries and research areas. In this study, two genes encoding β-d-galactosidases belonging to Glycoside Hydrolase families 2 and 42 from the psychrotolerant Arctic bacterium sp. S3* were cloned, expressed in and , purified and characterized.

Surface display technology has garnered significant attention for preparing efficient whole cell catalysts, while reported carrier proteins still cannot meet the demand to display various passenger domains, especially for those with high molecular weight. This study demonstrates that the autotransporter of esterase Est7 (E7AT) from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia played a decisive role in its efficient surface display. Guided by the original signal peptide, the surface display ratio of Est7 was determined as 89.
