Coordination Geometry Tuning in a Single‐Atom Nanozyme to Mimic Metalloenzymes with Nonplanar Active Site

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Correlation between coordination geometry and catalytic activity of carbonic anhydrase‐mimetic single‐atom Zn–N4 active sites is revealed. Among tetrahedral, distorted tetrahedral, and square‐planar Zn–N4 geometric configurations, the distorted tetrahedral Zn–N4 exhibits superior CO2 hydrolysis performance. This is attributed to increased Lewis acidity,

Consequences of EU Biofuel Policies on Agricultural Production and Land Use [PDF]

open access: yes
This article assesses the implications of European Union (EU) biofuel policies based on a general equilibrium framework with endogenous land supply. The results show that, without policy intervention to stimulate the use of biofuel crops, the targets set

Limits to biofuels [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Biofuel production is dependent upon agriculture and forestry systems, and the expectations of future biofuel potential are high. A study of the global food production and biofuel production from edible crops implies that biofuel produced from edible parts of crops lead to a global deficit of food.

A Refined Adaptive Laboratory Evolution Strategy With Biosensor‐Assisted Selection Resolves the Tolerance–Efficiency Trade‐Off in Toxic Chemical Biosynthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a refined adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) strategy to resolve the trade‐off between tolerance and biosynthetic efficiency in toxic chemical production. Combining in vivo mutagenesis, microdroplet‐based evolution, and biosensor‐assisted selection, this strategy rapidly yields robust “win‐win” phenotypes.

Xylose Metabolism Perturbation in Yarrowia lipolytica for Efficient Succinic Acid Bioproduction from Lignocellulosic Biomass

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study engineers Yarrowia lipolytica to produce succinic acid (SA) from lignocellulosic biomass. Adaptive evolution and multi‐omics analysis identify regulators that alleviate xylose metabolic disorder. Multi‐copy integration of xylose metabolic genes resolves redox imbalances from a futile fatty acid cycle, producing high‐titer SA from corn stover

The economic effects of the EU biofuel target. [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we use the CGE model DART to assess the economic impacts and optimality of different aspects of the EU climate package. A special focus is placed on the 10% biofuel target in the EU.

Physio-chemical assessment of beauty leaf (Calophyllum inophyllum) as second-generation biodiesel feedstock

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2015
Recently, second-generation (non-vegetable oil) feedstocks for biodiesel production are receiving significant attention due to the cost and social effects connected with utilising food products for the production of energy products. The Beauty leaf tree (
