Production cost of enzyme is largely determined by the type of the strain and raw material used to propagate the strain. Hence, selection of the strain and raw materials is crucial in enzyme production. For Glucose oxidase (GOx), previous studies showed Aspergillus terreus UniMAP AA-1 offers a better alternative to the existing sources. Thus, a lower production cost could be logically anticipat...

Glucose oxidase (GOx) is an enzymatic workhorse used in the food and wine industries to combat microbial contamination, to produce wines with lowered alcohol content, as the recognition element in amperometric glucose sensors, and as an anodic catalyst in biofuel cells. It is naturally produced by several species of fungi, and genetic variants are known to differ considerably in both stability ...

Glycolate oxidase (GOX) is a crucial enzyme of plant photorespiration. The encoding gene is thought to have originated from endosymbiotic gene transfer between the eukaryotic host and the cyanobacterial endosymbiont at the base of plantae. However, animals also possess GOX activities. Plant and animal GOX belong to the gene family of (L)-2-hydroxyacid-oxidases ((L)-2-HAOX). We find that all (L)...

CNTs need to be dispersed in aqueous solution for their successful use, and most methods to disperse CNTs rely on tedious and time-consuming acid-based oxidation. Here, we report the simple dispersion of intact multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by adding them directly into an aqueous solution of glucose oxidase (GOx), resulting in simultaneous CNT dispersion and facile enzyme immobilization ...

Hybrid Nanoenzymes In article 2300385 by Xing-Can Shen and co-workers, a bioinspired metalloprotein-like hybrid nanozyme (FeS@GOx) is designed incorporating the FeS as brand-new cofactors within natural GOx protein scaffolds, providing feasible H2S gas amplified ROS cascade strategy for precise efficient tumor chemodynamic immunotherapy.

In this communication, we present a nanoscale reactor assembled from tuneable and spatially addressable tubular DNA origami units. We can controllably combine separate origami units equipped with glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP), and demonstrate efficient GOx/HRP enzyme cascade reaction inside the tube. The reactor could be utilized as a nanoscale diagnostic tool, and modu...

A rapid and simple procedure was developed for the preparation of a highly stable and leach-proof glucose oxidase (GOx)-bound glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Crosslinked GOx via glutaraldehyde was drop-cast on a KOH-pretreated GCE followed by drop-casting of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) to form a stable bioactive layer. At -0.45 V, the biosensor exhibited a wide dynamic detection range o...

In this paper, a novel amperometric glucose biosensor was constructed by alternative self-assembly of positively charged poly(diallydimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and negatively charged glucose oxidase (GOx) onto a 3D Nafion network via electrostatic adsorption. The amount of Nafion in the electrode and the number of the (PDDA/GOx)(n) multilayers were optimized to develop a sensitive and sel...

Adv. Funct. Mater. 2021, 2101372 DOI: 10.1002/adfm.202101372 In the originally published article, local magnification images for Alg/CaP group were found to be unmatched in Figure 7B. The corrected image is shown below. overall conclusions from these figures, as well paper, are unaffected. major organs (heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys) of rats after implantation Alg/GOx Alg/GOx/[email ...

A hierarchical porous metal-organic framework (MOF), PCN-888, containing three types of cavities was utilized to couple two enzymes into a tandem nanoreactor. The largest cavity (6.2 nm) can only accommodate one molecule of glucose oxidase (GOx). The intermediate cavity (5.0 nm) can accommodate one and only one molecule of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The small cavity (2.0 nm) has sufficient s...
