Design of Artificial Alcohol Oxidases: Alcohol Dehydrogenase–NADPH Oxidase Fusions for Continuous Oxidations

Aerobic alcohol oxidations mediated by nitric acid.

Directed evolution of galactose oxidase: generation of enantioselective secondary alcohol oxidases.

Creating Oxidase–Peroxidase Fusion Enzymes as a Toolbox for Cascade Reactions

A set of bifunctional oxidase-peroxidases has been prepared by fusing four distinct oxidases to a peroxidase. Although such fusion enzymes have not been observed in nature, they could be expressed and purified in good yields. Characterization revealed that the artificial enzymes retained the capability to bind the two required cofactors and were catalytically active as oxidase and peroxidase. P...

Principles of Psychotherapies for Alcohol Addiction

Alcoholic beverages are assumed to be the most popular drinks which are being consumed after water. Though for people who drink alcohol in excessive amounts longer time would be taken to become dependent in comparison with other drugs. Alcohol causes more severe medical and social harm as well as many fatal accidents for its users. Non-medical interventions are still on the top of the list of e...

immobilization of pichia pastoris cells containing alcohol oxidase activity

background and objectives : the attempts were made to describe the development of a whole cell immobilization of p. pastoris by entrapping the cells in polyacrylamide gel beads. the alcohol oxidase activity of the whole cell pichia pastoris was evaluated in comparison with yeast biomass production. materials and methods : methylotrophic yeast p. pastoris was obtained from collection of standard...
