Although many microorganisms have been found to produce bioflocculants, and bioflocculants have been considered as attractive alternatives to chemical flocculants in wastewater treatment, there are few reports on bioflocculants from the safe strain C ...

Quantitative determination of serum triglycerides by the use of enzymes.
We describe a novel method for determining serum triglycerides, in which an enzymatic hydrolysis replaces the more commonly used saponification procedure. Under the conditions of the assay, the enzymatic hydrolysis can be completed in less than 10 min by

Enzymatic functionalization of carbon-hydrogen bonds [PDF]
The development of new catalytic methods to functionalize carbon–hydrogen (C–H) bonds continues to progress at a rapid pace due to the significant economic and environmental benefits of these transformations over traditional synthetic methods.

Enzymes as chaperones and chaperones as enzymes
Chaperones and foldases are two groups of accessory proteins which assist maturation of nascent peptides into functional proteins in cells. Protein disulfide isomerase, a foldase, and ATP‐dependent proteases, responsible for degradation of misfolded proteins in cells, both have intrinsic chaperone activities.

Structural insight into catalytic mechanism of PET hydrolase
Poly-ethylene terephthalate (PET) is a widely used plastic which accumulates in the environment with detrimental consequences. Here the authors report crystal structures of a PET-hydrolyzing enzyme from the microbe Ideonella sakaiensis bound to substrate

Programmed DNA destruction by miniature CRISPR-Cas14 enzymes
A programmable type of CRISPR system CRISPR-Cas9 systems have been causing a revolution in biology. Harrington et al. describe the discovery and technological implementation of an additional type of CRISPR system based on an extracompact effector protein,

Master curve of boosted diffusion for ten catalytic enzymes [PDF]
Molecular agitation more rapid than thermal Brownian motion is reported for cellular environments, motor proteins, synthetic molecular motors, enzymes, and common chemical reactions, yet that chemical activity couples to molecular motion contrasts with generations of accumulated knowledge about diffusion at equilibrium. To test the limits of this idea,

Integrative genomic mining for enzyme function to enable engineering of a non-natural biosynthetic pathway. [PDF]
The ability to biosynthetically produce chemicals beyond what is commonly found in Nature requires the discovery of novel enzyme function. Here we utilize two approaches to discover enzymes that enable specific production of longer-chain (C5-C8) alcohols
