Diabetic mellitus (DM) is characterized by hyperglycaemia and defective macromolecular metabolism, arising from insulin resistance or lack of insulin production. The present study investigates the potential of artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone isolated from Artemisia annua, to exert anti-diabetic and antioxidant effects through modulation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signalling pathway. Our computational analyses demonstrated a high binding affinity of artemisinin with proteins belonging to the PI3K/AKT signalling cascade. α-Amylase and α-glucosidase studies revealed a notable increase in inhibition percentages with artemisinin treatment across concentrations ranging from 10 to 160 µM. A similar significant (p < 0.05) dose-dependent inhibition of free radicals was observed for the in vitro anti-oxidant assays. Further, toxicological profiling of artemisinin in the in vivo zebrafish embryo-larvae model from 4 to 96 h post-fertilization (hpf) did not exhibit any harmful repercussions. In addition, gene expression investigations confirmed artemisinin's potential mechanism in modulating hyperglycaemia and oxidative stress through the regulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway. Overall, our investigation suggests that artemisinin can be used as a therapeutic intervention for diabetes and oxidative stress, opening up opportunities for future investigation in clinical settings.

In the course of past two decade anthropogenic activities have reinforced, begetting soil and water defilement. A plethora of heavy metals alters and limits plant growth and yield, with opposing effect on agricultural productivity. Silicon often perceived as plant alimentary 'nonentity'. A suite of determinants associated with silicon have been lately discerned, concerning plant physiology, chemistry, gene regulation/expression and interaction with different organisms. Exogenous supplementation of silicon renders resistance against heavy-metal stress. Predominantly, plants having significant amount of silicon in root and shoot thus are barely prone to pest onset and manifest greater endurance against abiotic stresses including heavy-metal toxicity. Silicon-mediated stress management involves abatement of metal ions within soil, co-precipitation of metal ions, gene modulation associated with metal transport, chelation, activation of antioxidants (enzymatic and non-enzymatic), metal ion compartmentation and structural metamorphosis in plants. Silicon supplementation also stimulates expression of stress-resistant genes under heavy-metal toxicity to provide plant tolerance under stress conditions. Ergo, to boost metal tolerance within crops, immanent genetic potential for silicon assimilation should be enhanced. Current study, addresses the potential role and mechanistic interpretation of silicon induced mitigation of heavy-metal stress in plants.

在过去的二十年里,人类活动加剧了土壤和水的污染。大量重金属改变并限制了植物的生长和产量,对农业生产力产生了相反的影响。硅通常被认为是植物食品中的 "非实体"。最近,人们发现了一系列与硅有关的决定因素,涉及植物生理、化学、基因调控/表达以及与不同生物的相互作用。外源补充硅可增强对重金属胁迫的抵抗力。主要是,根部和芽中含有大量硅的植物不易遭受虫害,对包括重金属毒性在内的非生物胁迫具有更强的抵抗力。硅介导的胁迫管理包括减少土壤中的金属离子、金属离子的共沉淀、与金属转运相关的基因调控、螯合、抗氧化剂(酶和非酶)的激活、金属离子区隔以及植物的结构蜕变。补充硅还能刺激重金属毒性下抗胁迫基因的表达,从而提高植物在胁迫条件下的耐受性。因此,要提高作物对金属的耐受性,应增强硅同化的内在遗传潜力。目前的研究探讨了硅诱导植物减轻重金属胁迫的潜在作用和机理解释。

Plant pathogens are causing substantial economic losses and thus became a significant threat to global agriculture. Effective and timely detection methods are prerequisite for combating the damages caused by the plant pathogens. In the realm of plant pathogen detection, the isothermal amplification techniques, e.g., recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), have emerged as a fast, precise, and most sensitive alternative to conventional PCR but they often comprise high rates of non-specific amplification and operational complexity. In recent advancements, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated nuclease Cas systems, particularly Cas12, have emerged as powerful tools for highly sensitive, specific, and rapid pathogen detection. Exploiting the collateral activities of Cas12, which selectively cleaves single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), novel detection platforms have been developed. The mechanism employs the formation of a triple complex molecule comprising guide RNA, Cas12 enzyme, and the substrate target nucleotide sequence. Upon recognition of the target, Cas12 indiscriminately cleaves the DNA strand, leading to the release of fluorescence from the cleaved ssDNA reporter. Integration of isothermal amplification methods with CRISPR/Cas12 enables one-step detection assays, facilitating rapid pathogen identification within 30 min at a single temperature. This integrated RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a approach eliminates the need for RNA extraction and cDNA conversion, allowing direct use of crude plant sap as a template. With an affordable fluorescence visualization system, this portable method achieves 100-fold greater sensitivity than conventional techniques. This review summarizes recent advances in RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a for detecting plant pathogens, covering primer design, field-level portability, and enhanced sensitivity.

植物病原体正在造成巨大的经济损失,因而成为全球农业的重大威胁。有效、及时的检测方法是应对植物病原体造成的损失的先决条件。在植物病原体检测领域,等温扩增技术,如重组酶聚合酶扩增(RPA)和环介导等温扩增(LAMP),已成为传统 PCR 的快速、精确和最灵敏的替代方法,但它们往往存在非特异性扩增率高和操作复杂的问题。近年来,聚类规则间隔短回文重复序列(CRISPR)和与 CRISPR 相关的核酸酶 Cas 系统,特别是 Cas12,已成为高灵敏度、特异性和快速病原体检测的强大工具。Cas12 可选择性地裂解单链 DNA(ssDNA),利用 Cas12 的附带活性,新型检测平台应运而生。其机理是形成一个由导向 RNA、Cas12 酶和底物靶核苷酸序列组成的三重复合分子。识别到目标后,Cas12 会不加区分地裂解 DNA 链,导致裂解的 ssDNA 报告释放荧光。将等温扩增方法与 CRISPR/Cas12 相结合,可实现一步检测测定,从而在 30 分钟内以单一温度快速鉴定病原体。这种集成的 RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a 方法无需提取 RNA 和转换 cDNA,可直接使用粗植物汁液作为模板。通过经济实惠的荧光可视化系统,这种便携式方法的灵敏度比传统技术高出 100 倍。本综述总结了用于检测植物病原体的 RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a 的最新进展,包括引物设计、田间便携性和灵敏度的提高。

This study aimed to explore the protective mechanism of Banxia Xiexin Tang (BXXXT) on liver cell damage caused by high glucose (H-G) and to clarify its molecular regulatory pathways. First, the main components in BXXXT-containing serum were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to provide basic data for subsequent experiments. Subsequently, the effect of BXXXT on high glucose (H-G)-induced hepatocyte activity was evaluated through screening of the optimal concentration of drug-containing serum. Experimental results showed that BXXXT significantly reduced the loss of cell activity caused by high glucose. Further research focuses on the regulatory effect of BXXXT on high glucose-induced hepatocyte apoptosis, especially its effect on the PGC-1α (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α) pathway. Experimental results showed that BXXXT reduced high-glucose-induced hepatocyte apoptosis and exerted its protective effect by upregulating the activity of the PGC-1α pathway. BXXXT significantly increased the expression level of IGFBP1 (insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins) in hepatocytes under a high-glucose environment. It cleared mitochondrial ROS (reactive oxygen species) by enhancing SOD2 (superoxide dismutase) enzyme activity and maintained the survival of hepatocytes under a high-glucose environment. Finally, the regulation of PGC-1α by BXXXT is indeed involved in the regulation of IGFBP1 expression in hepatocytes and its downstream SOD2 effector signaling. Taken together, this study provides an in-depth explanation of the protective mechanism of BXXXT on hepatocytes in a high-glucose environment, focusing on regulating the expression of the PGC-1α pathway and IGFBP1, and reducing cell damage by scavenging ROS. This provides an experimental basis for further exploring the potential of BXXXT in the treatment of diabetes-related liver injury.

本研究旨在探讨半夏泻心汤(BXXXT)对高血糖(H-G)所致肝细胞损伤的保护机制,并阐明其分子调控途径。首先,采用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)分析了含 BXXXT 血清中的主要成分,为后续实验提供基础数据。随后,通过筛选含药血清的最佳浓度,评估了 BXXXT 对高葡萄糖(H-G)诱导的肝细胞活性的影响。实验结果表明,BXXXT 能显著降低高糖导致的细胞活性损失。进一步研究的重点是 BXXXT 对高糖诱导的肝细胞凋亡的调控作用,尤其是其对 PGC-1α(过氧化物酶体增殖激活受体 γ 辅激活剂-1α)通路的影响。实验结果表明,BXXXT 可减少高血糖诱导的肝细胞凋亡,并通过上调 PGC-1α 通路的活性发挥其保护作用。在高糖环境下,BXXXT 能明显提高肝细胞中 IGFBP1(胰岛素样生长因子结合蛋白)的表达水平。它通过提高 SOD2(超氧化物歧化酶)酶的活性清除线粒体中的 ROS(活性氧),维持肝细胞在高糖环境下的存活。最后,BXXXT 对 PGC-1α 的调控确实参与了对肝细胞中 IGFBP1 表达及其下游 SOD2 效应信号的调控。综上所述,本研究深入解释了 BXXXT 在高糖环境下对肝细胞的保护机制,主要是调节 PGC-1α 通路和 IGFBP1 的表达,并通过清除 ROS 减少细胞损伤。这为进一步探索 BXXXT 治疗糖尿病相关肝损伤的潜力提供了实验基础:在线版本包含补充材料,可在 10.1007/s13205-024-04060-0获取。

The present study examines the use of waste cooking oil (WCO) as a substrate for medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoates (mcl-PHA) production by Pseudomonas rhizophila S211. The genome analysis revealed that the S211 strain has a mcl-PHA cluster (phaC1ZC2DFI) encoding two class II PHA synthases (PhaC1 and PhaC2) separated by a PHA depolymerase (PhaZ), a transcriptional activator (PhaD) and two phasin-like proteins (PhaFI). Genomic annotation also identified a gene encoding family I.3 lipase that was able to hydrolyze plant oils and generate fatty acids as favorable carbon sources for cell growth and PHA synthesis via β-oxidation pathway. Using a three-variable Doehlert experimental design, the optimum conditions for mcl-PHA accumulation were achieved in 10% of WCO-based medium with an inoculum size of 10% and an incubation period of 48 h at 30 °C. The experimental yield of PHA from WCO was 1.8 g/L close to the predicted yield of 1.68 ± 0.14 g/L. Moreover, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analysis confirmed the extracted mcl-PHA. Overall, this study describes P. rhizophila as a cell factory for biosynthesis of biodegradable plastics and proposes green and efficient approach to cooking oil waste management by decreasing the cost of mcl-PHA production, which can help reduce the dependence on petroleum-based plastics.

本研究探讨了利用废弃食用油(WCO)作为底物,通过根瘤假单胞菌 S211 生产中链长度聚羟基烷酸(mcl-PHA)的问题。基因组分析表明,S211 菌株有一个 mcl-PHA 簇(phaC1ZC2DFI),编码两个二类 PHA 合成酶(PhaC1 和 PhaC2),中间有一个 PHA 解聚酶(PhaZ)、一个转录激活因子(PhaD)和两个类 phasin 蛋白(PhaFI)。基因组注释还发现了一个编码 I.3 家族脂肪酶的基因,该基因能够水解植物油并生成脂肪酸,作为细胞生长和通过 β 氧化途径合成 PHA 的有利碳源。采用三变量 Doehlert 实验设计,在以 WCO 为基础的培养基中,接种量为 10%,培养温度为 30℃,培养时间为 48 小时,达到了 mcl-PHA 积累的最佳条件。WCO PHA 的实验产量为 1.8 克/升,接近预测产量(1.68 ± 0.14 克/升)。此外,1H 核磁共振光谱分析证实了提取的 mcl-PHA。总之,本研究将根瘤蚜描述为生物合成可降解塑料的细胞工厂,并通过降低 mcl-PHA 的生产成本,提出了绿色、高效的食用油废物管理方法,有助于减少对石油基塑料的依赖。

Phosphorus (P) is the key to several structural molecules and catalyzes numerous biochemical reactions in plant body besides its involvement in energy transfer. Any deficit in P availability is likely to result in reduced RNA and protein content, inhibiting crop growth and development. Thus, availability of soil P is extremely crucial for plant growth especially in acid soils of India, where most of the fraction is bound to solid phase rendering their availability. The present communication deals with the isolation of elite phosphate-solubilizing bacterial (PSB) strains from the acid soils to work out their ability to improve the fertilizer P use efficiency in the acidic environment. Initially twenty-six bacteria were isolated from the acid soils of Northeastern India. Among them, ten bacteria were selected based on formation of halo zone in the Pikovskaya agar plate. In addition, these bacteria were able to solubilize insoluble zinc (Zn) and potassium (K). The isolates were subject to in vitro optimization for P solubilization under different insoluble P source utilization and at different pH and salinity conditions. Strains AN3, AN11, and AN21 exhibited significant solubilization of insoluble P, Zn, and K, and were identified as Streptomyces sp., Enterobacter sp., and Paraburkholderia caribensis. These three bacteria solubilized 206.53 to 254.08 µg mL-1 P, 79.7 to 177.55 µg mL-1 Zn, and 0.96 to 1.56 µg mL-1 K from insoluble minerals. Their performance was further evaluated in pot culture experiment using green gram as test crop. These three bacteria were found to improve P uptake and dry matter accumulation in green gram plant substantially. Seed bio-priming with the PSB strains enhanced the efficiency of added P fertilizer, resulting in a 1.40 to 1.52 times higher effectiveness compared to the control. On the whole, AN11 may be ranked as best inoculant for the acidic soils of Northeastern India.

磷(P)是多种结构分子的关键,除了参与能量转移外,还能催化植物体内的多种生化反应。任何缺磷现象都可能导致核糖核酸和蛋白质含量降低,从而抑制作物的生长和发育。因此,土壤中的钾元素对植物生长至关重要,尤其是在印度的酸性土壤中,大部分钾元素都与固相结合,从而影响了其可用性。本通讯涉及从酸性土壤中分离出精英磷酸盐溶解细菌(PSB)菌株,以研究它们在酸性环境中提高肥料磷利用效率的能力。最初从印度东北部的酸性土壤中分离出 26 种细菌。其中,有 10 种细菌是根据在皮科夫斯卡娅琼脂平板上形成光晕区而被筛选出来的。此外,这些细菌还能溶解不溶性锌(Zn)和钾(K)。在不同的不溶性磷源利用率、不同的 pH 值和盐度条件下,对分离菌进行了体外溶解磷的优化。菌株 AN3、AN11 和 AN21 对不溶性磷、锌和钾有显著的增溶作用,并被鉴定为链霉菌、肠杆菌和卡氏副杆菌。这三种细菌从不溶矿中溶解了 206.53 至 254.08 µg mL-1 P、79.7 至 177.55 µg mL-1 Zn 和 0.96 至 1.56 µg mL-1 K。以青稞为试验作物,在盆栽培养实验中进一步评估了它们的性能。结果发现,这三种细菌大大提高了禾本科植物对磷的吸收和干物质的积累。用 PSB 菌株进行种子生物引种可提高所添加的 P 肥料的效率,与对照相比,效果提高了 1.40 至 1.52 倍。总的来说,AN11 可被列为印度东北部酸性土壤的最佳接种剂:在线版本包含补充材料,可查阅 10.1007/s13205-024-04042-2。

The present study investigated antiviral peptides (AVPs) as inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Orf9b protein, a novel target for disrupting the Orf9b-TOM70 complex crucial for viral infection. In silico screening via molecular docking and MD simulations identified AVP1442 and AVP1896 with high binding affinities to Orf9b (- 846.3 kcal mol-1 and - 820 kcal mol-1, respectively), comparable to the Orf9b-TOM70 complex (- 810.99 kcal mol-1). These AVPs interacted with key amino acid residues in Orf9b, including phosphorylation sites. In addition, AVPs also closely interacted with conserved regions in Orf9b. AVP1896 formed a hydrogen bond with Orf9b's threonine at position 84. AVP1442 interacted with Orf9b's leucine at position 15. Favorable Ramachandran plots and compactness during MD simulations for up to 100 ns suggest good stability of formed complexes. These non-toxic AVPs warrant further in vitro and in vivo evaluation, potentially as components of drug cocktails with small molecules or interferon-based therapies.

Komagataella phaffii (previously described as Pichia pastoris) is a yeast that produces high-level heterologous proteins with a wide range of applications in medicine and industry. The methanol-induced alcohol oxidase I promoter (PAOX1) is frequently used for protein expression in this yeast. However, limitations on the use of methanol have been observed in large-scale production, including its flammability, toxicity, and need for special handling. Here, we propose to develop a system using recombinant cells constitutively expressing pectinmethyl esterase for expression of two reporter proteins, GFP and azurin, under the control of PAOX1 using pectin in production medium. So, this system is coherent with yeast culture medium containing pectin and heterologous gene inserted downstream of PAOX1 can be successfully expressed without the addition of methanol. Therefore, this novel Self-inducibLe heterologous protein EXpression (SILEX) system, which does not require the addition of methanol, can be used for the production of any protein. It can also be adapted for large-scale production.

Komagataella phaffii(以前称为 Pichia pastoris)是一种能产生高级异源蛋白的酵母,在医学和工业领域有着广泛的应用。甲醇诱导的酒精氧化酶 I 启动子(PAOX1)常用于该酵母的蛋白质表达。然而,在大规模生产中,甲醇的使用受到限制,包括易燃性、毒性和需要特殊处理。在此,我们建议开发一种利用重组细胞组成型表达果胶甲酯酶的系统,在 PAOX1 的控制下,利用生产培养基中的果胶表达两种报告蛋白(GFP 和 azurin)。因此,该系统与含有果胶的酵母培养基是一致的,插入 PAOX1 下游的异源基因无需添加甲醇即可成功表达。因此,这种无需添加甲醇的新型自诱导异源蛋白表达(SILEX)系统可用于生产任何蛋白质。该系统还可用于大规模生产:在线版本包含补充材料,可查阅 10.1007/s13205-024-04039-x。

Potential of halophiles and alkaliphiles in bioremediation of azo dyes-laden textile wastewater: a review. 嗜卤生物和嗜碱生物在含偶氮染料纺织废水生物修复中的潜力:综述。

Azo dye-laden textile wastewater must be treated before release due to various health and environmental concerns. Bioremediation of textile wastewater, however, is a challenge owing to its alkaline and saline nature as mesophilic microbes, in general, are either not able to thrive or show less efficiency under such hostile environment. Thus, pre-treatment for neutralization or salinity removal becomes a prerequisite before applying microbes for treatment, causing extra economical and technical burden. Extremophilic bacteria can be the promising bioremediating tool because of their inherent ability to survive and show toxicants removal capability under such extreme conditions without need of pre-treatment. Among extremophiles, halophilic and alkaliphilic bacteria which are naturally adapted to high salt and pH are of special interest for the decolorization of saline-alkaline-rich textile wastewater. The current review article is an attempt to provide an overview of the bioremediation of azo dyes and azo dye-laden textile wastewater using these two classes of extremophilic bacteria. The harmful effects of azo dyes on human health and environment have been discussed herein. Halo-alkaliphilic bacteria circumvent the extreme conditions by various adaptations, e.g., production of certain enzymes, adjustment at the protein level, pH homeostasis, and other structural adaptations that have been highlighted in this review. The unique properties of alkaliphiles and halophiles, to not only sustain but also harboring high dye removal competence at high pH and salt concentration, make them a good candidate for designing future bioremediation strategies for the management of alkaline, salt, and azo dye-laden industrial wastewaters.

由于各种健康和环境问题,含偶氮染料的纺织废水在排放前必须进行处理。然而,纺织废水的生物修复是一项挑战,因为它具有碱性和盐分高的特点,一般来说,嗜中性微生物在这种恶劣的环境中无法生长,或者生长效率较低。因此,在使用微生物进行处理之前,必须先进行中和或去除盐分的预处理,这就造成了额外的经济和技术负担。嗜极细菌能够在这种极端条件下生存并显示出去除毒物的能力,而无需进行预处理,因此是一种很有前途的生物修复工具。在嗜极细菌中,嗜盐菌和嗜碱菌天然适应高盐和高 pH 值,在富含盐碱的纺织废水脱色方面具有特殊意义。本综述文章试图概述利用这两类嗜极细菌对偶氮染料和含偶氮染料纺织废水进行生物修复的情况。本文讨论了偶氮染料对人类健康和环境的有害影响。嗜卤嗜碱细菌通过各种适应性来规避极端条件,例如,产生某些酶、在蛋白质水平上进行调节、pH 值平衡和其他结构适应性,这些在本综述中都有重点介绍。嗜碱性细菌和嗜卤细菌不仅能在高 pH 值和高盐浓度条件下维持生存,而且还具有很强的染料去除能力,这些独特的特性使它们成为设计未来生物修复策略的良好候选者,用于治理含碱性、盐分和偶氮染料的工业废水。

Considering the current growing interest in new and improved enzymes for use in a variety of applications, the present study aimed to characterize a novel detergent-stable serine alkaline protease from the extremophilic actinobacterium Microbacterium metallidurans TL13 (MmSP) using a combined in silico and experimental approach. The MmSP showed a close phylogenetic relationship with high molecular weight S8 peptidases of Microbacterium species. Moreover, its physical and chemical parameters computed using Expasy’s ProtParam tool revealed that MmSP is hydrophilic, halophilic and thermo-alkali stable. 3D structure modelling and functional prediction of TL13 serine protease resulted in the detection of five characteristic domains: [catalytic subtilase domain, fibronectin (Fn) type-III domain, peptidase inhibitor I9, protease-associated (PA) domain and bacterial Ig-like domain (group 3)], as well as the three amino acid residues [aspartate (D182), histidine (H272) and serine (S604)] in the catalytic subtilase domain. The extremophilic strain TL13 was tested for protease production using agricultural wastes/by-products as carbon substrates. Maximum enzyme activity (390 U/gds) was obtained at 8th day fermentation on potato peel medium. Extracellular extract was concentrated and partially purified using ammonium sulfate precipitation methodology (1.58 folds purification fold). The optimal pH, temperature and salinity of MmSP were 9, 60 °C and 1 M NaCl, respectively. The MmSP protease showed broad pH stability, thermal stability, salt tolerance and detergent compatibility. In order to achieve the maximum stain removal efficacy by the TL 13 serine protease, the operation conditions were optimized using a Box–Behnken Design (BBD) with four variables, namely, time (15–75 min), temperature (30–60 °C), MmSP enzyme concentration (5–10 U/mL) and pH (7–11). The maximum stain removal yield (95 ± 4%) obtained under the optimal enzymatic operation conditions (treatment with 7.5 U/mL of MmSP during 30 min at 32 °C and pH9) was in good agreement with the value predicted by the regression model (98 ± %), which prove the validity of the fitted model. In conclusion, MmSP appears to be a good candidate for industrial applications, particularly in laundry detergent formulations, due to its high hydrophilicity, alkali-halo-stability, detergent compatibility and stain removal efficiency.

考虑到目前人们对用于各种应用的新型和改良酶的兴趣日益浓厚,本研究旨在采用硅学和实验相结合的方法,对来自嗜极放线菌金属微细菌 TL13(MmSP)的新型去污剂稳定型丝氨酸碱性蛋白酶进行表征。该蛋白酶与微杆菌中的高分子量 S8 肽酶有着密切的系统发育关系。此外,利用 Expasy 的 ProtParam 工具计算的物理和化学参数显示,MmSP 具有亲水性、亲卤性和热碱稳定性。通过对 TL13 丝氨酸蛋白酶的三维结构建模和功能预测,发现了五个特征结构域:[催化亚基酶结构域、纤连蛋白(Fn)III 型结构域、肽酶抑制剂 I9、蛋白酶相关(PA)结构域和细菌 Ig 样结构域(第 3 组)],以及催化亚基酶结构域中的三个氨基酸残基[天冬氨酸(D182)、组氨酸(H272)和丝氨酸(S604)]。以农业废弃物/副产品为碳底物,对嗜极菌株 TL13 进行了蛋白酶生产测试。在马铃薯皮培养基上发酵第 8 天时,获得了最大酶活性(390 U/gds )。利用硫酸铵沉淀法浓缩并部分纯化了胞外提取物(纯化倍数为 1.58 倍)。MmSP 的最佳 pH 值、温度和盐度分别为 9、60 °C 和 1 M NaCl。MmSP 蛋白酶具有广泛的 pH 稳定性、热稳定性、耐盐性和洗涤剂兼容性。为了使 TL 13 丝氨酸蛋白酶达到最大的去污效果,采用盒-贝肯设计(BBD)法对操作条件进行了优化,包括时间(15-75 分钟)、温度(30-60 ℃)、MmSP 酶浓度(5-10 U/mL)和 pH 值(7-11)四个变量。在最佳酶解操作条件下(32 ℃、pH9 条件下,30 分钟内使用 7.5 U/mL的 MmSP 处理)获得的最大去污率(95 ± 4%)与回归模型预测值(98 ± %)非常吻合,证明了拟合模型的有效性。总之,由于 MmSP 具有高亲水性、碱-卤稳定性、洗涤剂兼容性和去污效率,它似乎是工业应用(尤其是洗衣粉配方)的理想候选物质。

In conclusion, MmSP appears to be a good candidate for industrial applications, particularly in laundry detergent formulations, due to its high hydrophilicity, alkali-halo-stability, detergent compatibility and stain removal efficiency.</p>","PeriodicalId":7067,"journal":{"name":"3 Biotech","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141947266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
