Carbon monoxide (CO) serves as a promising carbon source, but it adversely affects CO-metabolizing microorganisms. To address this issue, fermentation should occur under mass-transfer limitation condit...
Tyrosinases can directly catalyze the biosynthesis of catechol compounds without additional cofactors under mild conditions. However, the low stability of tyrosinases in organic media has limited their...
Numerous biological systems contain vesicle-like biomolecular compartments without membranes, which contribute to diverse functions including gene regulation, stress response, signaling, and skin barri...
Chitosan-based nanofibers have become attractive biomaterials for wound healing and dressing applications based on their intrinsic biocompatibility, biodegradability, and antibacterial properties. Howe...
Microbial biotransformation of C1 gas feedstocks such as CH4 and CO is a notable technique for sustainable, carbon–neutral chemical and fuel production. However, low C1-gas utilization efficiency in bi...
Background: Catechol-containing polymers such as mussel adhesive proteins (MAPs) are attractive as biocompatible adhesive biomaterials, and the catecholic amino acid 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (DOPA...
Microbial biotransformation of CH4 gas has been attractive for the production of energy and high-value chemicals. However, insufficient supply of CH4 in a culture medium needs to be overcome for the ef...
Chitosan/gelatin and chitosan/gelatin/nanohydroxyapatite hydrogels were rapidly and stably prepared without any crosslinking materials by using an engineered tyrosinase (mTyr-CNK) with high catalytic a...
The exquisite structure and attractive biological properties of biominerals have great potential and increased interest for use in a wide range of medical and industrial applications. Calcium carbonate...
An in situ injectable chitosan/gelatin hydrogel was formed under slightly acidic conditions (pH 4.0 ~ 4.5) using an acid-tolerant tyrosinase, tyrosinase-CNK. A homogeneous chitosan/tyrosinase-CNK solut...
With the help of recombinant DNA technology, many protein candidates have been investigated and engineered for biomaterial applications. Particularly, several repeat sequences with unique secondary str...
Tyrosinases, as a representative type-3 copper enzyme (two copper ions in the active site), catalyze the orthohydroxylation of monophenols and the oxidation of diphenols. It is ubiquitously distributed...
An acid-tolerant tyrosinase, tyrosinase-CNK, was used to form chitosan/gelatin hydrogels without any additional crosslinking materials at pH 4, where appropriate chitosan/gelatin blends were efficientl...
Tyrosinase efficiently catalyzes the ortho-hydroxylation of monophenols and the oxidation of diphenols without any additional cofactors. Although it is of significant interest for the biosynthesis of c...
Molluscan nacre is a fascinating biomineral consisting of a highly organized calcium carbonate composite that provides unique fracture toughness and an iridescent color. Organisms elaborately control t...
Coacervation is a liquid-liquid phase separation process of macromolecular polyelectrolytes. The formation of simple and complex coacervations of a synthetic acidic protein, GG1234, as a model shell ma...
Primary fatty acid amides are commonly found in grasses, microalgae, and animal. Oleamide and erucamide are fatty acid amide derivatives of oleic and brassidic acids, respectively. They are the most fr...
Tyrosinases catalyze the hydroxylation of a monophenol (monophenolase activity) and the conversion of an o-diphenol to o-quinone (diphenolase activity), which are mainly involved in the modification of...
Recent adhesive technologies have focused on the development of high-quality and eco-friendly adhesives. Thus, there is a gradual shift from the currently used chemical-based adhesives toward harmless ...
In nature, marine mussels (Mytilus edulis) suffer less fouling colonization on the newly formed sides of their shells. Using settlement assays with algal spores of Porphyra suborbiculata, we determined...
