Sustainable biofuel production from fish processing waste: lipase‐catalyzed hydroesterification of tilapia residual oil

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Fishing waste and byproducts, whether naturally occurring or from industrial processing, are important sources of high‐value compounds. Fertilizers, biomaterials, cosmetics, biolubricants, and biodiesel are some of the substances that can be obtained from these residues. The objective of this study was to conduct a theoretical and experimental

Multi-omic Analyses of Extensively Decayed Pinus contorta Reveal Expression of a Diverse Array of Lignocellulose-Degrading Enzymes. [PDF]

, 2018
Fungi play a key role cycling nutrients in forest ecosystems, but the mechanisms remain uncertain. To clarify the enzymatic processes involved in wood decomposition, the metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics of extensively decayed lodgepole pine were ...

Engineering a newly identified alcohol dehydrogenase from Sphingobium Sp. for efficient utilization of nicotinamide cofactors biomimetics

Bioresources and Bioprocessing
Nicotinamide cofactor biomimetics (NCBs) serve as low-cost alternatives to the expensive NAD(P)+/NAD(P)H, holding significant potential for applications in oxidoreductases. In this study, an alcohol dehydrogenase (SpADH2) from Sphingobium sp.

Development of an amperometric biosensor for the detection of alcohol: a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]

, 1993
The aim of the following work was to design a biosensor for the detection of ethanol. A biosensor is an analytical device in which a biological sensing element is connected to or integrated with a physical transducing element.

Diversity of ThDP‐Dependent Enzymes Forming Chiral Tertiary Alcohols

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.
Chiral tertiary alcohols are widespread in nature and bioactive compounds; however, their asymmetric synthesis faces several challenges. This review outlines the toolbox of ThDP‐dependent enzymes able to produce tertiary alcohols through the formation of CC bond formation using ketones as acceptor substrates. Herein, the substrate scope, the diversity

Acetylation‐Deacetylation‐Driven Natural Product Biosynthesis

ChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the role of acetylation‐deacetylation in natural product biosynthesis, including acetylation followed by deacetylation after several biosynthetic steps, acetylation‐mediated rearrangement, acetylation‐triggered elimination, and the acetylation cycle as a regulatory mechanism. These processes are vital for the formation of complex

Redox Biocatalysis in Lidocaine‐Based Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvents: Non‐Conventional Media Outperform Aqueous Conditions

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Two hydrophobic DESs, lidocaine/oleic acid and lidocaine/decanoic acid, were utilized as reaction media that were enzyme‐compatible and highly substrate‐solubilizer for carbonyl reduction catalyzed by horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, focusing on the effect of water contents and on maximizing substrate loadings, which showcases for the first time the ...
