Wang, Junpeng (author), Wu, J. (author), Westermann, Rüdiger (author)The optimization of porous infill structures via local volume constraints has become a popular approach in topology optimization. In some design settings, however, the iterative optimization process converges only slowly, or not at all even after several hundreds or thousands of iterations. This leads to regions in which a distinct binary...journal article 2022

Ma, Yunjian (author), Liang, Hongjing (author), Zhao, Zexin (author), Wu, Bin (author), Lan, Dongming (author), Hollmann, F. (author), Wang, Yonghua (author)Unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs, EC 1.11.2.1) are promising oxyfunctionalization catalysts because of their unique stereoselectivity. However, so far only a few UPOs have been reported. In this study, gene mining was used to identify a gene from Galerina marginata that coded for a novel UPO (GmaUPO). GmaUPO was expressed in Pichia pastoris X...journal article 2022
