Abstract
Enzymatic biofuel cells (EBFCs) have increasingly been the subject of research, but the control of the EBFC output remains difficult. In this study, we fuse glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and diaphorase (DI) with the natural photoreceptor Vivid named "Mag". The output current and power density of EBFCs with the fusion protein exhibit a sensitive and efficient response to blue light. Following optimizations, the power density increases nearly 4-fold from 1.32 to 6.26 μW cm-2, whereas the current rises from 5.9 to 10.8 μA after 20 min of illumination, dropping back within 30 min under dark conditions.
