  • High throughput assay for identifying microbial redox enzymes
    Patent number: 11536685
    Abstract: Described herein are systems, assays, methods and compositions for identification of oxidase microbial redox-enzymes (MREs) specific to an analyte of interest from an environmental source. The technology relates to identification of analyte-responsive MREs that can quantify the concentration of a target analyte with high specificity and high sensitivity, for example, where the identified analyte-responsive redox-enzyme can be used to engineer an electrochemical biosensor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 5, 2021
    Date of Patent: December 27, 2022
    Assignee: Trustees of Boston University
    Inventors: James Galagan, Uros Kuzmanovic, Luis Ortiz, Douglas Densmore, Nicolas Shijie Shu
