Programming Nanoscale Reaction Environments via Peptide Localization for Gold Nanoparticle Growth in Liposomal Nanoreactors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The liposome nanoreactor method enables uniform metal nanoparticle synthesis using the interior as a reaction environment. We demonstrate that peptide sequences and lipid compositions act as a functional molecular switch to control reaction environments in liposome nanoreactors.

Gas fermentation for microbial sustainable aviation fuel production [PDF]

Microbiology Australia, 2023
The challenge of limiting global warming to below 1.5°C requires all industries to implement new technologies and change practices immediately. The aviation industry contributes 2% of human-induced CO2 emissions and 12% of all transport emissions ...

The Feasibility of Integrating an Autotrophic Acetobacterium woodii Process for CO₂-Neutral Yeast Oil Production

Fermentation
The efficient production of microbial oils from agricultural residues and acetic acid has recently been shown with Cutaneotrichosporon oleaginosus. However, around 50% of the carbon is released as CO2 during aerobic yeast oil production.

Self‐Assembled Crystalline Peptoid Nanomaterials as Metal‐Free Enzyme Mimics for Enhanced Carbon Dioxide Hydration and Precipitation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by metal‐free carbonic anhydrases (CAs) that achieve efficient catalysis without metal cofactors, we herein report a sequence‐defined supramolecular peptoid platform that mimics metal‐free CAs and exhibits hydrolytic activity via a supramolecular assembly‐mediated proton‐transfer mechanism.

Uncovering potential autotrophs in coal seams: characterization, enrichment, and genome-resolved metabolisms of a subsurface coal seam microbiome

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Biological transformation of inorganic carbon into organic compounds is an extremely important biosynthetic process, and many organisms catalyze this reaction autotrophically, using CO2 as the sole carbon source. Natural autotrophic pathways are diverse,

Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with

Nitride MXenes Beyond Carbides: Bridging the Gap Between Computational Prediction and Experimental Realization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nitride MXenes remain constrained by a persistent gap between computational prediction and experimental realization. This Review identifies the thermodynamic, kinetic, and chemical barriers limiting their synthesis, critically evaluates emerging fabrication routes, and proposes a multidimensional computational‐experimental framework to accelerate the ...

Nitrate Feed Improves Growth and Ethanol Production of Clostridium ljungdahlii With CO2 and H2, but Results in Stochastic Inhibition Events

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The pH-value in fermentation broth is a critical factor for the metabolic flux and growth behavior of acetogens. A decreasing pH level throughout time due to undissociated acetic acid accumulation is anticipated under uncontrolled pH conditions such as ...
