  • Functional Expression of a Novel Methanol-Stable Esterase From
    Cai et al. BMC Biotechnology (2020) 20:36 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12896-020-00622-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Functional expression of a novel methanol- stable esterase from Geobacillus subterraneus DSM13552 for biocatalytic synthesis of cinnamyl acetate in a solvent- free system Xianghai Cai1†, Lin Lin2,3†, Yaling Shen1, Wei Wei1* and Dong-zhi Wei1 Abstract Background: Esterases are widely distributed in nature and have important applications in medical, industrial and physiological. Recently, the increased demand for flavor esters has prompted the search of catalysts like lipases and esterases. Esterases from thermophiles also show thermal stability at elevated temperatures and have become enzymes of special interest in biotechnological applications. Although most of esterases catalyzed reactions are carried out in toxic and inflammable organic solvents, the solvent-free system owning many advantages such as low cost and easy downstream processing. Results: The gene estGSU753 from Geobacillus subterraneus DSM13552 was cloned, sequenced and overexpressed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The novel gene has an open reading frame of 753 bp and encodes 250-amino-acid esterase (EstGSU753). The sequence analysis showed that the protein contains a catalytic triad formed by Ser97, Asp196 and His226, and the Ser of the active site is located in the conserved motif Gly95-X-Ser97-X-Gly99 included in most esterases and lipases. The protein catalyzed the hydrolysis of pNP-esters of different acyl chain lengths, and the enzyme specific activity was 70 U/mg with the optimum substrate pNP-caprylate. The optimum pH and temperature of the recombinant enzyme were 8.0 and 60 °C respectively.

    The Reactions of Silicomolybdic Acid with Organic Compounds 1 John H. Billman, Donald B. Borders, and John A. Buehler, Indiana University, Hondo AFB, Texas, and Anderson College For many years the analytical and inorganic chemists have been seeking specific reagents to identify metallic ions. At the same time, the organic chemist has been interested in finding compounds that would be useful for spotting different types of functional groups commonly en- countered in organic compounds. A typical example of such a reagent is ferric chloride, which has found wide use with phenols. For several years we have been testing various compounds in an effort to find reagents that would be specific for metallic ions as well as organic functional groups. In the course of our investigation it was found that silicomolybdic acid (1), H 4 SiMo 12 O 40 .xH 2 O, would produce a dark blue mixture in the presence of aliphatic aldehydes, but would not give the same test with aromatic aldehydes. Further investigation indi- cated that only aldehydes that contain a hydrogen atom on the alpha carbon atom would give a positive test. On the basis of this work a more thorough study was undertaken of the reaction of silicomolybdic acid with various organic compounds containing different functional groups. Altogether the reagent has been tried with a one-hundred and forty-five organic compounds. Table 1 shows the aldehydes that have been tested.

Abstract: The selective oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes has attracted a lot of attention because of Selective Oxidation of Cinnamyl its potential use in agrochemicals, fragrances, and fine chemicals. However, due to homogenous Alcohol to Cinnamaldehyde over catalysis, low yield, low selectivity, and hazardous oxidants, traditional approaches have lost their Functionalized Multi-Walled Carbon efficiency.

The catalysts were characte- rized by SEM, EDX, XRD, FTIR, TGA/DTA, and surface area and pore size analysis. Experimental data revealed that Fe2O3/AC(KOH) was an efficient catalyst for the oxidation (dehydrogenation) of alcohol while Fe O AC was found to show catalytic activity for both dehydration and de- 23 (H34 PO ) hydrogenation of alcohols. The catalysts were recycled by simple filtration, and used several times without any loss of catalytic activity. Keywords Oxidation; Iron Oxide; Activated Carbon; Alcohol; Liquid Phase 1. Introduction Alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes and ketones in the presence of oxidizing agents, such as potassium dich- romate added to sulphuric acid, chromic oxide added to glacial acetic acid, potassium permanganate, and so- dium hypochlorite (bleach), etc.
