Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Contribution of Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) K Peptide in Enhancing the Expression of Lipase from Sphingobacterium sp.: In vitro and in Silico StudiesIbrahim Muhammad et al.Sphingobacterium sp. AB3 lipase is a psychrophilic enzyme with optimal lipolytic activity at pH 7 and 15°C. The cold-adapted properties of the lipase render it suitable for various low-temperature industrial applications such as biodiesel production, detergent formulation, and non-thermal food processing. Recent studies have shown that co-expression of LEA K peptide with AB3 lipase resulted in enhanced protein expression in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 21 Nov 2024 · 4,572 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Geobacillus thermodenitrificans Lipase Activity and Binding Affinity by Acetone Treatment: Kinetic and in silico InvestigationsAmmar Khazaal Kadhim Almansoori, Alyaa Abdulhussein Alsaedi et al.Lipase Geobacillus thermodenitrificans (LipGt) is a thermostable enzyme that has an optimal activity temperature of 65°C. It can tolerate various organic solvents and has an improved activity, especially in the presence of acetone. In this study, in-vitro and in-silico studies were carried out to investigate the effect of acetone in enhancing the kinetic and binding affinity of LipGt. The LipGt … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2024 · 4,821 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProducing Functional Fatty Acid DHA from Corn Steep Liquor by Aurantiochytrium SW1Xiaojie Ren, Qi Yan, Baoyue Liu et al.Thraustochytrium has a relatively high lipid content in the cell and its lipid content can account up to 70% of the dry cell weight. It is an important raw material for the third-generation biodiesel production and the production of functional fatty acid Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). However, the high cost of traditional fermentation medium has hindered the industrial production of lipid. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 20 Nov 2021 · 6,326 accessesView PDFCite

We are in an age, where every day we are facing the crisis of energy. Decisions on current energy as well as fuel crisis in right direction can bring about a better, more sustainable future for our planet. We have huge opportunities and scope for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2019 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Fatty Acid Production in Escherichia coli by Over-Expression of NADPH Generating EnzymesYuanda Song, Yong Q. Chen, Haiqin Chen et al.NADPH is an essential factor for Fatty Acid (FA) biosynthesis. The effect of NADPH generating enzymes [NADP+-dependent malic enzyme (NADP-ME), NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-IDH), Glucose 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GPD) and 6-Phosphogluconate Dehydrogenase (PGD)] on FA biosynthesis was investigated in an engineered Escherichia coli BL21 △fadE/pTE. Among NADPH-generating enzymes, GPD and ICD increased total FA production by 60 and 16% respectively. Especially … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2017 · 8,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarvesting Chaetoceros Calcitrans and Nannochloropsis sp. Via ElectroflocculationNitin Raut, Dinesh Kumar Saini, Reena VaidyaThe efficiency of harvesting the algal biomass plays a dominant role in the production of biodiesel from microalgae. On a commercial scale the choice and efficiency of the harvesting techniques may be a deciding factor for economic viability of this renewable energy source. The highly energy intensive centrifugation and filtration process are followed by flocculation for harvesting microalgae. Therefore the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 9 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Salinity, pH, Light Intensity on Growth and Lipid Production of Microalgae for Bioenergy ApplicationMonika Prakash Rai, Trishnamoni Gautom, Nikunj SharmaThe crisis of energy producing molecules (fuels) is expected to increase in future, which is currently produced from crude mineral oil. Biodiesel is most reliable, non-toxic, biocompatible liquid fuel that can replace the existing unsustainable sources of energy. Among all the known sources, microalgae display high potential for the production of biodiesel owing to their numerous benefits like higher biomass … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2015 · 16,796 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSystem Dynamics Analysis of the Determinants of the Malaysian Palm Oil PriceSahra Mohammadi, Fatimah Mohamed Arshad, Bilash Kanti Bala, Abdulla IbragimovThis paper investigates the major determinants of the Malaysian palm oil price using a system dynamics approach.

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
