Over the years, nanostructures have been developed to enable to support enzyme usability to obtain highly selective and efficient biocatalysts for catalyzing processes under various conditions. This review summarizes recent developments in the nanostructures for enzyme supporters, typically those formed with various inorganic materials. To improve enzyme attachment, the surface of nanomaterials is properly modified to express specific functional groups. Various materials and nanostructures can be applied to improve both enzyme activity and stability. The merits of the incorporation of enzymes in inorganic nanomaterials and unprecedented opportunities for enhanced enzyme properties are discussed. Finally, the limitations encountered with nanomaterial-based enzyme immobilization are discussed together with the future prospects of such systems.

In the present study, we report that the selection of operation mode is important to take the full advantage of nanofibrous membrane in enzyme immobilization. Silk fibroin nanofibrous membrane has been prepared by electrospinning, and a-chymotrypsin was immobilized as a model enzyme. When the immobilized enzyme was operated in the membrane reactor mode, the Michaelis constant, Km, was lower and the Vmax was higher compared to the batch reactor mode. No concentration gradient was observed in the membrane reactor mode and the immobilized enzyme was stable even after 7 times of re-use. Our results suggests that the enzyme immobilized nanofibrous membrane should be operated in the membrane reactor mode rather than in the bath reactor mode.

The immobilization of enzyme is one of the key issues both in the field of enzymatic research and industrialization. In this work, we reported a facile method to immobilize Candida Antarctica lipase B (CALB) in alginate carrier. In the presence of calcium cation, the enzyme-alginate suspension could be cross-linked to form beads with porous structure at room temperature, and the enzyme CALB was dispersed in the beads. Activity of the enzyme-alginate composite was verified by enzymatic hydrolysis reaction of p-nitrophenol butyrate in aqueous phase. The effects of reaction parameters such as temperature, pH, embedding and lyophilized time on the reactive behavior were discussed. Reuse cycle experiments for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenol butyrate demonstrated that activity of the enzyme-alginate composite was maintained without marked deactivation up to 6 repeated cycles.

Chitosan의 산업적 응용분야 중 효소의 고정화담체로서의 이용 가능성을 확인하기 위한 방법으로 알코올 발효공업에서 다량으로 사용되어지고 있는 담화효소인 amyloglucosidase를 공유결합에 의한 고정화를 시도, 여러가지 반응조건에서의 활성변화를 free enzyme과 비교해 보았으며, 생산공정에서 사용되어지고 있는 액화전분용액에 대한 반응을 실시하여 효소고정화를 위한 담체로서의 chitosan 적용가능성을 검토한 결과, 제조되어진 chitosan bead의 직경은 약 1.2mm 정도였으며 고정화시에 AMG의 농도 6mg/ml가 최적의 반응액농도로서 더 이상의 농도 증가에도 불구하고 거의 일정한 수준의 고정화율을 나타내었으며 pH 4.2인 0.01 M sodium acetate 완충액, 반응온도 $55^{\circ}C$, 15min의 조건에서 free enzyme에 대한 상대효소활성도는 $97.8\%$에 달하였고, 고정화효소의 효소활성의 최적온도조건은 $55^{\circ}C$로서 free enzyme의 그것과 동일한 것으로 나타났다. 고정화효소의 최적 활성조건은 pH 4.2로서 free enzyme과 동일하였으며 중성 이후의 영역에서는 free enzyme에 비하여 상대적으로 높은 효소활성을 나타내었고, 열에 대한 내성에 있어서, 가열온도 $30^{\circ}C$를 기점으로 free enzyme에 비하여 상대적으로 소폭 증대되어진 활성을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 알코올발효용 액화전분용액에 대한 free enzyme 및 고정화효소의 반응시, 두 시료 모두 $55^{\circ}C$에서 최대의 활성을 나타내었으나 고정화효소의 free enzyme에 대한 상대활성도는 $62.6\%$ 였다.

Dendrimers are a novel class of nonlinear polymers and due to their extensive applications in different fields, called versatile polymers. Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are one of the most important dendrimers that have many applications in nanobiotechnology and industry. Generally aldehyde terminated dendrimers are prepared by activation of amine terminated dendrimers by glutaraldehyde which has two problems, toxicity and possibility of crosslink formation. In this study, novel aldehyde-terminated PAMAM dendrimer was prepared and used for covalent immobilization of trypsin by the aim of finding a special reagent which can prevent crosslinking and deactivation of the enzyme. For this purpose aminoacetaldehydedimethylacetal (AADA) was used as spacer group between aldehyde-terminated PAMAM and trypsin.The findings of this study showed that immobilization of trypsin not only resulted higher optimal temperature, but also increased the thermal stability of the immobilized enzyme in comparison to the free enzyme.

Partially purified ${\alpha}$-galactosidase from Bacillus sp. LX-1 was non-covalently immobilized on a reversibly soluble-insoluble polymer, Eudragit L-100, and an immobilization efficiency of 0.93 was obtained. The optimum pH of the free and immobilized enzyme was 6.5 to 7.0 and 7.0, respectively, while there was no change in optimum temperature between the free and immobilized ${\alpha}$-galactosidase. The immobilized ${\alpha}$-galactosidase was reutilized six times without significant loss in activity. The immobilized enzyme showed good storage stability at $37^{\circ}C$, retaining about 50% of its initial activity even after 18 d at this temperature, while the free enzyme was completely inactivated. The immobilization of ${\alpha}$-galactosidase from Bacillus sp. LX-1 on Eudragit L-100 may be a promising strategy for removal of ${\alpha}$-galacto-oligosaccharides such as raffinose and stachyose from soybean meal and other legume in feed industry.

Xylanase plays important roles in a broad range of industrial production as a biocatalyst, and its applications commonly require immobilization on supports to enhance its stability. Aluminum hydroxide, a carrier material with high surface area, has the advantages of simple and low-cost preparation and resistance to biodegradation, and can be potentially used as a proper support for xylanase immobilization. In this work, xylanase from Thermomyces lanuginosus was immobilized on two types of aluminum hydroxide particles (gibbsite and amorphous Al(OH)₃) through adsorption, and the properties of the adsorbed enzymes were studied. Both particles had considerable adsorptive capacity and affinity for xylanase. Xylanase retained 75% and 64% of the original catalytic activities after adsorption to gibbsite and amorphous Al(OH)₃. Both the adsorptions improved pH and thermal stability, lowered activation energy, and extended lifespan of the immobilized enzyme, as compared with the free enzyme. Xylanase adsorbed on gibbsite and amorphous Al(OH)₃ retained 71% and 64% of its initial activity, respectively, after being recycled five times. These results indicated that aluminum hydroxides served as good supports for xylanase immobilization. Therefore, the adsorption of xylanase on aluminum hydroxide particles has promising potential for practical production.
