Abstract

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are harmful to both environment and human health. We proposed the PAHs degradation system, which contains codon-optimized laccase from Bacillus sp. HR03 and catechol 1,2-dioxygenase from Pseudomonas putida KT2440 for Escherichia coli. The...

Human Practice

Interest and mindset formation should start at young age for permanence and continuity. High school and university students are great audiences to be approached to break the blurred paradigm of synthetic biology, which term is rarely known by the general public...

Voltage Switch

The voltage-dependent ion channels family are a group of ion channel proteins found to have permeability to ions dependent on the voltage in the external environment. This family of ion channels are widely found in neuronal cells...

PAH Degradation

Our project initiated from dealing with toxic chemicals found in second-hand smoke (or environmental tobacco smoke, ETS) and cooking fume. After carefully examining the composition of pollutes, we noticed that there was one group of highly toxic...
