An antiepileptic drug called brivaracetam has proven amazing efficacy in preventing epilepsy progression, garnering attention for novel synthesis methods. Despite recent progress in conventional synthesis routes, challenges such as expensive catalysts, inconvenient substrates, and hazardous solvents persist. In this context, we share the first finding that immobilized penicillin G acylase (IPGA) can catalyze the polarity reversal conjugate addition reaction. This synthesis is straightforward and does not require any purification. Yield up to 92.41% was achieved at 55 °C using dimethyl sulfoxide as a solvent. The catalytic specificity of IPGA was demonstrated through control experiments. Nonetheless, this research demonstrates the potential of IPGA and other biocatalysts to enable sustainable and effective organic synthesis processes and showcase the promiscuity of existing enzymes.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>","PeriodicalId":8936,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142188955","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}

Due to environmental concerns, such as biodiversity risks associated with living modified organisms (LMOs), the Korean government, including the Ministry of Environment, has been conducting LMO natural environment monitoring and post-management projects. In this study, we developed a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay to detect five specific LM cotton events (MON88701, MON531, MON15985, MON88913, and COT102), which were the most abundant volunteers observed from 2019 to 2021 in South Korea. The event-specific LAMP assays for the five LM cotton events were established with a 40-min reaction time using LAMP reaction buffer, <i>Bst</i> DNA polymerase, and event-specific primers. The limit of detection ranged from 0.01 to 1 ng/μL. The assays' specificity and sensitivity were validated through colorimetric changes, fluorescence intensity measurements, and conventional PCR. To demonstrate the practical application of the LAMP assays, we tested 22 LM cotton volunteers collected from the natural environment in 2021. Each LAMP assay event-specifically amplified the respective LM cotton volunteers. These results indicate that the developed LAMP assays are effective tools for the efficient management and detection of LM cotton in field surveys, supporting regulatory compliance and environmental monitoring efforts.</p>","PeriodicalId":8936,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141946152","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}

However, because of its lower activity than that of current antibiotics, Q has only been used as an antimicrobial adjuvant, particularly against antimicrobial-resistant strains, where it works synergistically with other agents to increase their antimicrobial activity and selectivity. Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanomaterials, which are among the most extensively researched and powerful antibacterial compounds, have limitations in terms of off-target effects and cytotoxicity at high concentrations and this necessitates the use of biocompatible chemicals for their modification. In this study, we bio-conjugated ZnO with Q using cell-free supernatant of <i>Staphylococcus</i> ATCC 25923. UV–visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) with Q nanocomposite (ZnO@Q NC). The in vitro antibacterial activity of ZnO@Q NC against gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial species was evaluated as the minimum inhibitory concentration. The results demonstrated that ZnO@Q NC exhibited a 4–32-fold higher preferential activity toward <i>Staphylococcus</i> species than Q and ZnO NPs. Additional mechanistic studies revealed that ZnO@Q NC disrupted bacterial membranes and prevented biofilm formation. The biocompatibility of ZnO@Q NC with WI-38 cells was assessed, and the synergistic use of ZnO@Q NC with antibiotics was suggested to reduce its cytotoxicity. Overall, the results demonstrated that conjugating ZnO NPs with Q can significantly boost their bactericidal efficacy and selective pressure against <i>Staphylococcus</i> species.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":8936,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866139","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}

We used cheap support matrices such as silica, chitosan, cellulose, and agarose for further scale-up and economic feasibility at the industrial level alongside more sophisticated supports like metal–organic frameworks.
