A novel unspecific peroxygenase from Agaricus bisporus var. bisporus for biocatalytic oxyfunctionalisation reactions

Unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs) represent an emerging class of catalysts for the selective oxyfunctionalisation of C–H- and C = C groups. Until now, only a few UPOs have been characterised. In this study, we report a new peroxygenase identified from the Unspecific Peroxygenase Database. The UPO from Agaricus bisporus var. bisporus (AbvbUPO)...

Ultra-low-frequency radio astronomy observations from a Seleno-centric orbit: First results of the Longjiang-2 experiment

This paper introduces the first results of observations with the Ultra-Long-Wavelength (ULW) —- Low Frequency Interferometer and Spectrometer (LFIS) on board the selenocentric satellite Longjiang-2. We present a brief description of the satellite and focus on the LFIS payload. The in-orbit commissioning confirmed a reliable operational status...

A photodecarboxylase from Micractinium conductrix active on medium and short-chain fatty acids

Hydrocarbons are essential base chemicals as energy carriers and starting materials for chemical manufacture. So-called fatty acid photodecarboxylases (FAPs) represent interesting catalysts for the conversion of natural fatty acids into hydrocarbons thereby giving access to alkanes from renewable feedstock. Today, however, only few FAPs are...

A Novel Unspecific Peroxygenase from Galatian marginata for Biocatalytic Oxyfunctionalization Reactions

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...

An Interface Co-modification Strategy for Improving the Efficiency and Stability of CsPbI₃Perovskite Solar Cells

Interface engineering is a simple and effective strategy for improving the photovoltaic performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, an interface co-modification strategy is proposed, using [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) and 2-fluoro-1,4-phenylenediammonium iodide (2FPPD) to modify the electron...

12-pulse Rectifier with DC-Side Buck Converter for Electric Vehicle Fast Charging

This paper presents the study of a 100kW electric vehicle (EV) fast charger based on a 12-pulse rectifier cascaded with two buck-type DC-DC converters. The proposed circuit operates with a triangular current shaping method which considerably improves the current harmonics performance of the system. The studied circuit is particularly suited...
