    摘要: Localized excess protons are created with an open-circuit water electrolysis process using a pair of anode and cathode electrodes for a special excess proton production and proton-utilization system to treat a substrate material plate/film by forming and using an excess protons-substrate-hydroxyl anions capacitor-like system. The technology enables protonation and/or proton-driven oxidation of plate/film and/or membrane materials in a pure water environment. The present invention represents a remarkable clean “green chemistry” technology that does not require the use of any conventional acid chemicals including nitric and sulfuric acids for the said industrial applications. The application of localized excess protons provides a special energy recycling and renewing technology function to extract latent heat including molecular thermal motion energy at ambient temperature for generating local proton motive force (equivalent to Gibbs free energy) to do useful work such as driving ATP synthesis and proton-driven oxidation of certain substrate metal atoms.

    摘要: The invention provides a non-naturally occurring microbial organism having an acetyl-CoA pathway and the capability of utilizing syngas or syngas and methanol. In one embodiment, the invention provides a non-naturally occurring microorganism, comprising one or more exogenous proteins conferring to the microorganism a pathway to convert CO, CO2 and/or H2 to acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), methyl tetrahydrofolate (methyl-THF) or other desired products, wherein the microorganism lacks the ability to convert CO or CO2 and H2 to acetyl-CoA or methyl-THF in the absence of the one or more exogenous proteins. For example, the microbial organism can contain at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding an enzyme or protein in an acetyl-CoA pathway. The microbial organism is capable of utilizing synthesis gases comprising CO, CO2 and/or H2, alone or in combination with methanol, to produce acetyl-CoA. The invention additionally provides a method for producing acetyl-CoA, for example, by culturing an acetyl-CoA producing microbial organism, where the microbial organism expresses at least one exogenous nucleic acid encoding an acetyl-CoA pathway enzyme or protein in a sufficient amount to produce acetyl-CoA, under conditions and for a sufficient period of time to produce acetyl-CoA.

    摘要: A heat-stable nuclease found in Y. enterocolitica subsp. Palearctica, named Nucyep, is active in broad spectrum conditions. The gene for Nucyep was sequenced in a strain Y. enterocolitica subsp. palearctica, cloned, and expressed in E. coli, and then purified and characterized. The molecular weight of this enzyme is about 30 to 32 kDa. The translation product, Nucyep1, is biologically active. The purified Nucyep1 exhibits non-specific nuclease activity, being able to degrade various nucleic acids, including RNA, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and linear or circular double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). This enzyme is active in a wide range of temperatures, from 0 to 100° C. The enzyme is active in a wide range of pH values from 3.6 to 9.9, and keeps greater than 75% of the activity at pH 7.24. This enterobacterial nuclease has unique levels of intrinsic resistance to heat, and is active under a large spectrum of conditions.
