| 1 | Immobilization of functional nano-objects in living engineered bacterial biofilms for catalytic applications显示文摘Nanoscale objects feature very large surface-area-to-volume ratios and are now understood as powerful tools for catalysis,but their nature as nanomaterials brings challenges including toxicity and nanomaterial pollution.Immobilization is considered a feasible strategy for addressing these limitations.Here,as a proof-of-concept for the immobilization of nanoscale catalysts in the extracellular matrix of bacterial biofilms,we genetically engineered amyloid monomers of the Escherichia coli curli nanofiber system that are secreted and can self-assemble and anchor nano-objects in a spatially precise manner.We demonstrated three scalable,tunable and reusable catalysis systems:biofilm-anchored gold nanoparticles to reduce nitro aromatic compounds such as the pollutant p-nitrophenol,biofilm-anchored hybrid Cd0.9Zn0.1S quantum dots and gold nanoparticles to degrade organic dyes and biofilm-anchored CdSeS@ZnS quantum dots in a semi-artificial photosynthesis system for hydrogen production.Our work demonstrates how the ability of biofilms to grow in scalable and complex spatial arrangements can be exploited for catalytic applications and clearly illustrates the design utility of segregating high-energy nano-objects from injury-prone cellular components by engineering anchoring points in an extracellular matrix. | Xinyu Wang Jiahua Pu Yi Liu Fang Ba Mengkui Cui Ke Li Yu Xie Yan Nie Qixi Mi Tao Li Lingli Liu Manzhou Zhu Chao Zhong | 2019 | National Science Review2019，6，5： | 9 |
| 2 | Diatom-inspired multiscale mineralization of patterned protein-polysaccharide complex structures显示文摘Marine diatoms construct their hierarchically ordered,three-dimensional(3D)external structures called frustules through precise biomineralization processes.Recapitulating the remarkable architectures and functions of diatom frustules in artificial materials is a major challenge that has important technological implications for hierarchically ordered composites.Here,we report the construction of highly ordered,mineralized composites based on fabrication of complex self-supporting porous structures—made of genetically engineered amyloid fusion proteins and the natural polysaccharide chitin—and performing in situ multiscale protein-mediated mineralization with diverse inorganic materials,including SiO_(2),TiO_(2)and Ga_(2)O_(3).Subsequently,using sugar cubes as templates,we demonstrate that 3D fabricated porous structures can become colonized by engineered bacteria and can be functionalized with highly photoreactive minerals,thereby enabling co-localization of the photocatalytic units with a bacteria-based hydrogenase reaction for a successful semi-solid artificial photosynthesis system for hydrogen evolution.Our study thus highlights the power of coupling genetically engineered proteins and polysaccharides with biofabrication techniques to generate hierarchically organized mineralized porous structures inspired by nature. | Ke Li Yingfeng Li Xinyu Wang Mengkui Cui Bolin An Jiahua Pu Jintao Liu Boyang Zhang Guijun Ma Chao Zhong | 2021 | National Science Review2021，8，8： | 1 |
