Abstract: Described herein are ultra-thin nanocellulose flexible electronic device on which SU-8, an epoxy material which can become highly stressed upon UV exposure, is printed on desired areas. Upon UV exposure and then release from the surface it is anchored on, the nanocellulose device will spontaneously self-mold into a desired form due to stress differences between the SU-8 and the nanocellulose sheet. The flexible electronics can be manufactured using standard printed circuit board processing techniques, including electroless metallization and soldering of surface mount components.

Abstract: Enzyme cascade reactions, wherein the product of a first enzyme is the substrate of a second enzyme and so forth, were found to be enhanced by the presence of peptides. It is believed that the peptides operate by forming coacervates, which are membrane-less compartments where, in the case of coacervates formed by peptides, the liquid-liquid phase separation involves water as the continuous phase both inside and outside the coacervate.

Abstract: Multi-enzyme systems attached to nanoparticles are effective to efficiently and controllably incorporate stable isotopes (such as deuterium) during the synthesis of small molecules. In one example, deuterium is incorporated into (+)-dihydrocarvide using a cascade involving the enzymes (a) pentaerythritol tetranitrate reductase (PETNR) and (b) flavin-dependent cyclohexanone monooxygenase triple variant F249A/F280A/F435A (CHMO3M).
