Strategy for the Biosynthesis of Short Oligopeptides: Green and Sustainable Chemistry.

ABSTRACT: Short oligopeptides are some of the most promising and functionally important amide bond-containing components, with widespread applications. Biosynthesis of these oligopeptides may potentially become the ultimate strategy because it has better cost efficiency and environmental-friendliness than conventional solid phase peptide synthesis and chemo-enzymatic synthesis. To successfully apply this strategy for the biosynthesis of structurally diverse amide bond-containing components, the identification and selection of specific biocatalysts is extremely important. Given that perspective, this review focuses on the current knowledge about the typical enzymes that might be potentially used for the synthesis of short oligopeptides. Moreover, novel enzymatic methods of producing desired peptides via metabolic engineering are highlighted. It is believed that this review will be helpful for technological innovation in the production of desired peptides.

A green and sustainable strategy toward lithium resources recycling from spent batteries.

Project description:Recycling lithium from spent batteries is challenging because of problems with poor purity and contamination. Here, we propose a green and sustainable lithium recovery strategy for spent batteries containing LiFePO4, LiCoO2, and LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 electrodes. Our proposed configuration of "lithium-rich electrode || LLZTO@LiTFSI+P3HT || LiOH" system achieves double-side and roll-to-roll recycling of lithium-containing electrode without destroying its integrity. The LiTFSI+P3HT-modified LLZTO membrane also solves the H+/Li+ exchange problem and realizes a waterproof protection of bare LLZTO in the aqueous working environment. On the basis of these advantages, our system shows high Li selectivity (97%) and excellent Faradaic efficiency (≥97%), achieving high-purity (99%) LiOH along with the production of H2. The Li extraction processes for spent LiFePO4, LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2, and LiCoO2 batteries is shown to be economically feasible. Therefore, this study provides a previously unexplored technology with low energy consumption as well as high economic and environmental benefits to realize sustainable lithium recycling from spent batteries.

Natural Product Inspired Environmentally Friendly Strategy Based on Dopamine Chemistry toward Sustainable Marine Antifouling.

Project description:The combination of natural active antifouling composition and intelligent coatings has been regarded as a prospective approach to avoid marine biofouling. However, the relatively complex coating structure and the excessive rapid release of antifoulants maintain unresolved issues in their practical application. In this work, a novel environmentally friendly natural antifoulant (Stellera chamaejasme, SC) encapsulated in the polydopamine (PDA) microcapsule (SC@PDA) is prepared by emulsion interfacial polymerization and blended with the acrylate polymer to prepare a sustainable antifouling coating. Herein, the PDA shell acting as an "intelligent capsule" ensures the controlled release of the antifoulant SC, and the corresponding SC loading amount could be high up to 75.40%. As a model antifoulant, the impact of SC on the adsorption activity of the protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) is studied, as well as the settlement of presentative fouling communities (diatom Navicula sp. and red algae Porphyridium sp.) on the constructed coating. The experimental results demonstrate that the natural product SC integrated eco-friendly antifouling coating occupies the superior capacity of impeding the adsorption of both protein BSA and algae. Such antifoulant (SC) integrating with controlled release character is a great advance in terms of marine antifouling applications. It is, therefore, expected that this innovation will provide guiding significance for developing the next generation of antifouling techniques, especially in the field of marine antifouling.

Corporate Sustainable Development Strategy: Effect of Green Shared Vision on Organization Members' Behavior.

Project description:In this study, expectancy-valence theory was used from the perspective of corporate green management to investigate green shared vision (GSV). Moreover, organizational identity theory and psychological ownership theory were combined to propose an integrated conceptual framework. To fill research gaps, an investigation was also conducted with frontline R & D and sales employees to further examine the effect of GSV on organization members' psychology and behavior. The research results indicate that when under the following circumstances, corporate members can enhance organizational citizenship behavior for the environment (OCBE) to improve green management performance, gain the favor of green consumers and achieve sustainable consumption goals. First, enterprises should focus on environmental issues and develop their GSV. Second, enterprises should implement the GSV in different aspects, such as product design, processing, marketing and management. Finally, corporate GSV should be in line with the expectations and values of organization members on environmental issues to motivate their OCBE. Therefore, enterprises must implement their GSV to strengthen the green organizational identity and green product psychological ownership of their members.

Biopolymer Green Lubricant for Sustainable Manufacturing.

Project description:We report on the preparation of a biopolymer thin film by hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), which can be used as a dry green lubricant in sustainable manufacturing. The thin films were characterized through scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy; the films showed desirable levels of thickness, controllability, and uniformity. Tribology tests also showed desirable tribological and antiwear behaviors, caused by the formation of transfer layers. Zebrafish embryo toxicity studies showed that HPMC has excellent solubility and biocompatibility, which may show outstanding potential for applications as a green lubricant. The results of the present study show that these techniques for biopolymer HPMC provide an ecologically responsible and convenient method for preparing functional thin films, which is particularly applicable to sustainable manufacturing.

Biosynthesis of rhizocticins, antifungal phosphonate oligopeptides produced by Bacillus subtilis ATCC6633.

Project description:Rhizocticins are phosphonate oligopeptide antibiotics containing the C-terminal nonproteinogenic amino acid (Z)-l-2-amino-5-phosphono-3-pentenoic acid (APPA). Here we report the identification and characterization of the rhizocticin biosynthetic gene cluster (rhi) in Bacillus subtilis ATCC6633. Rhizocticin B was heterologously produced in the nonproducer strain Bacillus subtilis 168. A biosynthetic pathway is proposed on the basis of bioinformatics analysis of the rhi genes. One of the steps during the biosynthesis of APPA is an unusual aldol reaction between phosphonoacetaldehyde and oxaloacetate catalyzed by an aldolase homolog RhiG. Recombinant RhiG was prepared, and the product of an in vitro enzymatic conversion was characterized. Access to this intermediate allows for biochemical characterization of subsequent steps in the pathway.

Length-dependent proteolytic cleavage of short oligopeptides catalyzed by matrix metalloprotease-9.

Project description:Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), as the enzymes to degrade extracellular matrix proteins, play a major role on cell behaviors. Among them, MMP-9 usually catalyzes the degradation of proteins with the dominant cleavage at G/L site. Recent high-throughput screening suggests that S/L is a new major site for the cleavage when the substrates of MMP-9 are oligopeptides. Here we examine the cleavage sites of the N-terminal substituted short oligopeptides as the substrates of MMP-9. As the first example of such study of N-substituted small peptides, our results suggest that the substitute group at the N-terminal and the length of peptides significantly affect the position of the cleavage site on the oligopeptides, which provides a useful insight for the design of small peptide derivatives as the substrates of MMP-9.

Green Chemistry Teacher Professional Development in New York State High Schools: A Model for Advancing Green Chemistry.

Project description:Teaching green chemistry within the K-12 classroom has a positive impact on attitudes and perceptions of chemistry in society for future scientists and professionals, resulting in safer, less hazardous chemistry experiments and demonstrations. The state of New York has taken advantage of the benefits that green chemistry provide in the classroom and is a leader in professional development for high school teachers throughout the state. Between 2011 and 2016, Beyond Benign and Siena College implemented 14 workshops across the state as part of New York's Department of Environmental Conservation goal of reducing hazardous chemicals in schools. At these workshops, 224 teachers were introduced to green chemistry principles and practices and provided resources for replacing traditional laboratory experiments with alternatives that used safer materials. Two professional development models were implemented, a one-day introductory workshop and a three-day train-the-trainer style in-depth workshop, using collaborative, hands-on, intensive, and peer-learning techniques. In response to a 2021 follow-up survey, participants shared that they continue to use skills from the professional development they received and reported sharing about green chemistry with peers, parents, and administrators. The long-term engagement of the participants indicates that successful models were implemented to provide a path to develop teacher leaders. Professional development models are presented herein for sharing best practices and approaches for training high school teachers on green chemistry, providing numerous benefits to both teachers and students in high school classrooms.

Strategy for Conjugating Oligopeptides to Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles Using Diazirine-Based Heterobifunctional Linkers.

Project description:Successful strategies for the attachment of oligopeptides to mesoporous silica with pores large enough to load biomolecules should utilize the high surface area of pores to provide an accessible, protective environment. A two-step oligopeptide functionalization strategy is examined here using diazirine-based heterobifunctional linkers. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) with average pore diameter of ~8 nm and surface area of ~730 m2/g were synthesized and amine-functionalized. Tetrapeptides Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly (GGGG) and Arg-Ser-Ser-Val (RSSV), and a peptide comprised of four copies of RSSV (4RSSV), were covalently attached via their N-terminus to the amine groups on the particle surface by a heterobifunctional linker, sulfo-succinimidyl 6-(4,4'-azipentanamido)hexanoate (sulfo-NHS-LC-diazirine, or SNLD). SNLD consists of an amine-reactive NHS ester group and UV-activable diazirine group, providing precise control over the sequence of attachment steps. Attachment efficiency of RSSV was measured using fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-tagged RSSV (RSSV-FITC). TGA analysis shows similar efficiency (0.29, 0.31 and 0.26 mol peptide/mol amine, respectively) for 4G, RSSV and 4RSSV, suggesting a generalizable method of peptide conjugation. The technique developed here for the conjugation of peptides to MSNPs provides for their attachment in pores and can be translated to selective peptide-based separation and concentration of therapeutics from aqueous process and waste streams.

Haloarchaea as Promising Chassis to Green Chemistry.

Project description:Climate change and the scarcity of primary resources are driving the development of new, more renewable and environmentally friendly industrial processes. As part of this green chemistry approach, extremozymes (extreme microbial enzymes) can be used to replace all or part of the chemical synthesis stages of traditional industrial processes. At present, the production of these enzymes is limited by the cellular chassis available. The production of a large number of extremozymes requires extremophilic cellular chassis, which are not available. This is particularly true of halophilic extremozymes. The aim of this review is to present the current potential and challenges associated with the development of a haloarchaea-based cellular chassis. By overcoming the major obstacle of the limited number of genetic tools, it will be possible to propose a robust cellular chassis for the production of functional halophilic enzymes that can participate in the industrial transition of many sectors.
