Опубликована: Янв. 24, 2022

With the increasing world population, demand for industrialization has also increased to fulfill humans' living standards. Fungi are considered a source of essential constituents produce biocatalytic enzymes, including amylases, proteases, lipases, and cellulases that contain broad-spectrum industrial emerging applications. The present review discussed origin, nature, mechanism action, aspects genetic engineering designing novel genome editing fungal strains through CRISPR technology, challenges future recommendations proteases. evidence revealed proteases show protective role many environmental exposures discovered an imbalance protease inhibitors in epithelial barriers leads protection chronic eosinophilic airway inflammation. Moreover, mitoproteases recently were found execute intense proteolytic processes crucial mitochondrial integrity homeostasis function, biogenesis, protein synthesis, apoptosis. CRISPR/Cas9 technology had been successfully developed various filamentous fungi higher specific genes. In addition medical importance, extensively used different industries such as foods prepare butter, fruits, juices, cheese, increase their shelf life. It is concluded hydrolysis proteins one most significant applications enzymes led massive usage proteomics.

Valorization of Livestock Keratin Waste: Application in Agricultural Fields

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 19(11), С. 6681 - 6681

Опубликована: Май 30, 2022

Livestock keratin waste is a rich source of protein. However, the unique structure livestock makes its valorization great challenge. This paper reviews main methods for waste, which include chemical, biological, and other novel methods, summarizes agricultural applications keratin-based material. mainly used as animal feed fertilizer. it has promising potential biosorbents in fields. In future, researchers should focus on biological extraction carbonization processing soil remediation farmland.

Advances in eggshell membrane separation and solubilization technologies

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 10

Опубликована: Март 16, 2023

Eggshell membranes (ESM) contain 90% protein, 3% lipids, 2% sugars, and small amounts of minerals such as calcium magnesium. Of the proteins present, 472 species have been identified. ESM provide initial mineralization platform for eggshell formation, can be used to produce adsorbents, cosmetics, medical products because their special physical structure chemical composition. The membrane, with disulfide bonds between within protein molecules cross-linking lysine-derived heterochain chains makes membrane very difficult dissolve, a maximum solubility rate only 62%. Also, insolubility limits its development use also any related research. Based on composition this paper reviews latest research separation solubilization reference promoting separation, dissolution, rational avian membrane.

Keratin-containing scaffolds for tissue engineering applications: a review

Journal of Biomaterials Science Polymer Edition, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 35(6), С. 916 - 965

Опубликована: Фев. 13, 2024

In tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications, the utilization of bioactive materials has become a routine tool. The goal is to create new organs tissues by combining cell biology, science, reactor engineering, clinical research. As part growth pattern for primary cells in an organ, backing material frequently used as supporting material. A porous three-dimensional (3D) scaffold can provide with optimal conditions proliferating, migrating, differentiating, functioning framework. Optimizing scaffolds' structure altering their surface may improve adhesion proliferation. keratin-based biomaterials platform been developed result discoveries made over past century extraction, purification, characterization keratin proteins from hair wool fibers. Biocompatibility, biodegradability, intrinsic biological activity, cellular binding motifs make attractive biomaterial scaffolds. Scaffolds have extracted because capacity self-assemble polymerize into intricate 3D structures. this review article, applications scaffolds different including bone, skin, nerve, vascular are explained based on common methods fabrication such electrospinning, freeze-drying process, sponge replication method.

Bioinspired and biomimetic protein-based fibers and their applications

Communications Materials, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 5(1)

Опубликована: Апрель 18, 2024

Abstract Protein-based fibers combine unique mechanical properties with biocompatibility and biodegradability, often outperform polymer-based fibers. Furthermore, a growing need for sustainable materials has triggered revival in the study of protein fibers, including keratin, collagen, elastin, silk, which do not require environmentally damaging petrochemicals their synthesis. Nowadays, bioinspired research intends to mimic underlying proteins as well natural assembly or spinning processes, achieve equivalent those counterparts. can also be used functions nature, otherwise achieved synthetic Here, we review promising synthesis, applications, such air water filtration, energy conversion, smart textiles, biosensoring biomedical fields.

Keratin from Animal By-Products: Structure, Characterization, Extraction and Application—A Review

Polymers, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 16(14), С. 1999 - 1999

Опубликована: Июль 12, 2024

Keratin is a structural fibrous protein and the core constituent of animal by-products from livestock such as wool, feathers, hooves, horns, pig bristles. This natural polymer also main component human hair present at an important percentage in skin. Significant amounts keratin-rich tissues are discarded worldwide each year, ca. 12 M tons, share used for keratin extraction added-value applications still very low. An stream new potential raw materials, represented by hair, thus being lost, while large-scale valorization could contribute to circular bioeconomy reduction environmental fingerprint those tissues. Fortunately, scientific research has made much progress last 10–15 years better understanding complex architecture its variability among different tissues, development tailored processes, screening applications. Hence, this review aims discussion recent findings characterization by-product structures, well recovery conventional emerging techniques advances several fields.
