Diaphorase (DI) has received wide attention as the key anodic enzyme mediating the electron transfer and electric energy generation in enzymatic biofuel cells (EBFCs). This research attempted to improve the enzyme activity of DI originated from Geobacillus stearothermophilus (Gs) under acidic conditions (4.5-5.4) through directed evolution, resulting in several fold increase in the catalytic activity as compared to that of the wild type. Thus, this engineered DI will be a useful candidate for the construction of enhanced EBFCs.

Bioresources and Bioprocessing (BIOB) is a peer-reviewed open access journal published under the brand SpringerOpen. BIOB aims at providing an international academic platform for exchanging views on and promoting research to support bioresource development, processing and utilization in a sustainable manner. As an application-oriented research journal, BIOB covers not only the application and management of bioresource technology but also the design and development of bioprocesses that will lead to new and sustainable production processes.
BIOB publishes original and review articles on most topics relating to bioresource and bioprocess engineering, including:
