Alginate/protamine/silica hybrid capsules with ultrathin membranes for laccase immobilization

TL;DR: A novel type of core–shell capsules with ultrathin alginate/protamine/silica (APSi) hybrid membranes are successfully fabricated through a coextrusion minifluidic approach and a biosilicification method for immobilization of laccase.

Immobilization of catalase by using Zr(IV)-modified collagen fiber as the supporting matrix

TL;DR: In this article, Collagen fiber (CF), an abundant natural material of biopolymer, was used as supporting matrix for immobilization of catalase, and it was found that the denaturation temperature of CF was remarkably increased from 37 to 75.6°C after reacting with Zr(IV).

Hydrolysis of Tannic Acid Catalyzed by Immobilized−Stabilized Derivatives of Tannase from Lactobacillus plantarum

TL;DR: A recombinant tannase from Lactobacillus plantarum, overexpressed in Escherichia coli, was purified in a single step by metal chelate affinity chromatography on poorly activated nickel supports and preserved >95% of its initial activity after 1 month of incubation under the optimal reaction conditions.

Immobilization of β-galactosidase from Bacillus circulans onto epoxy-activated acrylic supports

TL;DR: The remarkable Thermal stability of derivatives obtained at low enzyme loads, and the fact that the thermal stability of medium load enzyme derivatives improved when a post-immobilization alkaline treatment was performed, support the hypothesis that stabilization was achieved through multipoint covalent attachment.

A model for interfacial activation in lipases from the structure of a fungal lipase-inhibitor complex

TL;DR: It is proposed that the structure of the enzyme in this complex of R. miehei lipase with n-hexylphosphonate ethyl ester is equivalent to the activated state generated by the oil–water interface.
