Photosystem II‐Carbon Nitride Photoanodes for Scalable Biophotoelectrochemistry

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A spray‐freeze method is developed to fabricate large‐area (up to 33 cm2) macroporous carbon nitride photoanodes integrated with photosystem II enzymes for biophotoelectrochemical systems. The photoanodes reach a Faradaic efficiency of 93.5% for O2 evolution.

Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Natural Competence in the Filamentous, Heterocystous Cyanobacterium Chlorogloeopsis fritschii PCC 6912

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
Lateral gene transfer plays an important role in the evolution of genetic diversity in prokaryotes. DNA transfer via natural transformation depends on the ability of recipient cells to actively transport DNA from the environment into the cytoplasm ...

Peroxiredoxins in Plants and Cyanobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesAntioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2011
Peroxiredoxins (Prx) are central elements of the antioxidant defense system and the dithiol-disulfide redox regulatory network of the plant and cyanobacterial cell. They employ a thiol-based catalytic mechanism to reduce H2O2, alkylhydroperoxide, and peroxinitrite.

Shaping Microbial Motion with Light: A Contactless Approach Using Diffusioosmotic Flow

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Light‐controlled, contactless manipulation of cyanobacteria using photoresponsive azobenzene surfactants. Reversible photo‐isomerization generates surface flow, enabling precise trapping, relocation, and directional control of single cells or ensembles with adjustable light intensity and wavelength for noninvasive, spatiotemporally resolved microbial ...

Long-Term Spatial and Temporal Monitoring of Cyanobacteria Blooms Using MODIS on Google Earth Engine: A Case Study in Taihu Lake

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
As cyanobacteria blooms occur in many types of inland water, routine monitoring that is fast and accurate is important for environment and drinking water protection. Compared to field investigations, satellite remote sensing is an efficient and effective

Symbiotic unicellular cyanobacteria fix nitrogen in the Arctic Ocean

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance Biological dinitrogen (N2) fixation (BNF) is an important source of nitrogen in marine systems. Until recently, it was believed to be primarily limited to subtropical open oceans. Marine BNF is mainly attributed to cyanobacteria.

Multimodal Actuation and Environment Adaptive Strategies of Bio‐Inspired Micro/Nanorobots in Precision Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
An introduction for multidrive and environment‐adaptive micro/nanorobotics: design and fabrication strategies, intelligent actuation, and their applications. Various intelligent actuation approaches—magnetic, acoustic, optical, chemical, and biological—can be synergistically designed to enhance flexibility and adaptive behavior for precision medicine ...

Preparation of cyanobacteria-enhanced poly(vinyl)alcohol-based films with resistance to blue-violet light / red light and water.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The harmful cyanobacteria blooms which usually form in spring and summer, cause global eutrophication of freshwater and coastal marine ecosystems. This study tried to utilize cyanobacteria as a raw material to produce biological poly(vinyl)alcohol-based ...

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.
