Abstract

A novel soft-hard cooperative approach was developed to synthesize bioactive mesoporous composite by pre-wrapping Penicillin G amidase with poly(acrylaimde) nanogel skin and subsequently incorporating such Penicillin G amidase nanocapsules into hierarchically mesoporous silica. The as-received bioactive mesoporous composite exhibited comparable activity and extraordinarily high stability in comparison with native Penicillin G amidase and could be used repetitively in the water-medium hydrolysis of penicillin G potassium salt. Furthermore, this strategy could be extended to the synthesis of multifunctional bioactive mesoporous composite by simultaneously introducing glucose oxidase nanocapsules and horseradish peroxidase nanocapsules into hierarchically mesoporous silica, which demonstrated a synergic effect in one-pot tandem oxidation reaction. Improvements in the catalytic performances were attributed to the combinational unique structure from soft polymer skin and hard inorganic mesoporous silica shell, which cooperatively helped enzyme molecules to retain their appropriate geometry and simultaneously decreased the enzyme-support negative interaction and mass transfer limitation under heterogeneous conditions.

  • After gel filtration to remove unreacted proteins, monomers and initiators, penicillin G amidase (PGA) NCs could be encapsulated into mesoporous cavities to form PGA-HMS by putting the as-made hierarchically mesoporous silica in the PGA nanocapsules (PGA NCs) aqueous buffer (Step III)

  • Based on the enzyme amounts in solution before and after the immobilization measured with the Bradford method, the PGA loadings in PGA NCs encapsulated HMS (PNC-HMS) and PGA-HMS were determined as 2.5 wt% and 2.7 wt%, respectively

This strategy could be extended to the synthesis of multifunctional bioactive mesoporous composite by simultaneously introducing glucose oxidase nanocapsules and horseradish peroxidase nanocapsules into hierarchically mesoporous silica, which demonstrated a synergic effect in one-pot tandem oxidation reaction. PNC-HMS catalyst displayed a low cellular cytotoxicity and GNC-HNC-HMS catalyst exhibited the similar catalytic activity for in vitro cell medium with that of the reaction in tube, showing good potential in industrial applications
