    Abstract Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is the most abundantly produced plastic due to its excellent performance, but is also the primary source of poorly degradable plastic pollution. The development of environment-friendly PET biodegradation is attracting increasing interest. The leaf-branch compost cutinase mutant ICCG (F243I/D238C/S283C/Y127G) exhibits the best hydrolytic activity and thermostability of all known PET hydrolases. However, its superior PET degradation is highly dependent on its preparation as a purified enzyme, which critically reduces its industrial utility. Herein, we report the use of rational design and combinatorial mutagenesis to develop a novel ICCG mutant RITK (D53R/R143I/D193T/E208K) that demonstrated excellent whole-cell biocatalytic activity. Whole cells expressing RITK showed an 8.33-fold increase in biocatalytic activity compared to those expressing ICCG. Thermostability was also improved. After reacting at 85 °C for 3 h, purified RITK exhibited a 12.75-fold increase in depolymerization compared to ICCG. These results will greatly enhance the industrial utility of PET hydrolytic enzymes and further the progress of PET recycling.

    Abstract In this study, calcined water treatment plant sludge (C-WTPS) was used as a catalyst for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation to simultaneously remove Disperse Blue 56 (DB56) and phosphates. Firstly, the performance of the C-WTPS/PMS system was examined for the degradation of DB56. The results showed that 96.7% of DB56 (400 mg L⁻¹) was removed within 60 min in the presence of 4.8 g L⁻¹ PMS and 0.8 g L⁻¹ C-WTPS at pH 3 and 50 °C. Hydroxyl radicals (·OH), sulfate radicals (SO₄·⁻), and singlet oxygen (¹O₂) were generated during the oxidation process, and ¹O₂ was the main active species. The relatively high surface area, proper Fe content, and abundant ketone groups on the catalyst surface were responsible for PMS activation. Furthermore, the possible degradation pathways of DB56 were proposed based on the gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) results. Secondly, the simultaneous removal of DB56 and phosphates by the C-WTPS/PMS system was investigated. Due to the different removal mechanisms, the effects of the initial phosphate concentration and water matrix species on the removal of DB56 and phosphates showed different trends. Reusability tests results showed that C-WTPS had relatively high stability. In addition, the C-WTPS/PMS system exhibited a high decolorization ratio and phosphate removal efficiency in real wastewater tests. This article offers a value-added approach for reusing WTPS as a catalyst for treating organic contaminants and phosphates.

    Abstract The severe band-limited effect resulted from the low-cost optical transceiver increases the channel memory length and the number of taps of the equalizers. Besides, the interaction of fiber dispersion and square-law detection introduce nonlinear distortions in intensity modulation and direct-detection (IM/DD) transmission systems. The serious band-limited effect and nonlinear distortions degrade the transmission performance and bring challenges to current equalizers for low-complexity implementation. In this paper, we propose a trellis-compression nonlinear maximum likelihood sequence estimation (TC-NL-MLSE) algorithm to compensate the linear and nonlinear distortions with lower complexity. In the TC-NL-MLSE, we introduce a polynomial nonlinear filter (PNLF) to partly compensate both the linear distortions and nonlinear distortions. Then, we establish a look-up-table (LUT) to calculate the nonlinear branch metric (BM). To simplify the calculation, two or three levels with the highest probabilities are selected according to decision thresholds for each symbol to compress the state-trellis graph (STG). This significantly reduces computational complexity on BM calculations especially for high-order modulations. We conduct experiments to transmit beyond the 200-Gb/s PAM-8 signal over 2-km standard single mode fiber (SSMF) at C-band. The TC-NL-MLSE outperforms the reduced-state MLSE with PNLF, and can reach the 7%-overhead hard-decision forward error correction threshold. Moreover, the TC-NL-MLSE reduces the complexity by 97% compared with standard LUT-MLSE, limiting the multipliers around 100 at the expense of only 0.2-dB receiver sensitivity penalty.

    Abstract Presence of phthalate metabolites (PMs) in human serum has been well documented. However, the distribution pattern of PMs in different human blood matrixes remains not well known. To investigate this, paired serum and whole blood samples were collected from 145 adults (76 males and 69 females) in Quzhou, China, and analyzed for nine PMs in this study. All PMs had high detection frequencies (> 70%) in human serum and whole blood, except mono benzyl phthalate. Total concentrations of detected PMs in serum and whole blood were 0.70-61 ng/mL (mean 12 ng/mL) and 1.6-33 ng/mL (7.5 ng/mL), respectively. Mono methyl phthalate (MMP), mono (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, and mono butyl phthalate were consistently the predominant PMs in human serum and whole blood, with the mean concentrations of 3.4 and 2.0 ng/mL, 3.3 and 2.1 ng/mL, and 2.8 and 1.8 ng/mL, respectively. Females had higher mean serum concentrations of PMs, except MBP, than males. Youngest age group (20-30 years) consistently had the lowest mean whole blood levels of all PMs. For the first time, the distribution pattern of PMs in human blood was evaluated based on the calculated partitioning coefficient (K

    Abstract Bioaccumulation of nanoplastic particles has drawn increasing attention regarding environmental sustainability and biosafety. How nanoplastic particles interact with the cellular milieu still remains elusive. Herein, we exemplify a general approach to profile the composition of a "protein corona" interacting with nanoparticles via the photocatalytic protein proximity labeling method. To enable photocatalytic proximity labeling of the proteome interacting with particles, iodine-substituted BODIPY (I-BODIPY) is selected as the photosensitizer and covalently conjugated onto amino-polystyrene nanoparticles as a model system. Next, selective proximity labeling of interacting proteins is demonstrated using I-BODIPY-labeled nanoplastic particles in both

    Abstract A large proportion of lead compounds are derived from natural products. However, most natural products have not been fully tested for their targets. To help resolve this problem, a model using transfer learning was built to predict targets for natural products. The model was pre-trained on a processed ChEMBL dataset and then fine-tuned on a natural product dataset. Benefitting from transfer learning and the data balancing technique, the model achieved a highly promising area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) score of 0.910, with limited task-related training samples. Since the embedding distribution difference is reduced, embedding space analysis demonstrates that the model’s outputs of natural products are reliable. Case studies have proved our model’s performance in drug datasets. The fine-tuned model can successfully output all the targets of 62 drugs. Compared with a previous study, our model achieved better results in terms of both AUROC validation and its success rate for obtaining active targets among the top ones. The target prediction model using transfer learning can be applied in the field of natural product-based drug discovery and has the potential to find more lead compounds or to assist researchers in drug repurposing.
