Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) with oxygen containing functional groups can be selectively modified by small biomolecules to achieve heterogeneous surface properties. To achieve a hyper-enzymatic activity, the surface functionality of GO should be tailored to the orientation adsorption of the Thermomyces lanuginosus (TL) lipase, and the active center can be covered by a relatively hydrophobic helical lid for protection. In this work, amino acids were used to interact with GO through reduction reaction, hydrophobic forces, electrostatic forces, or hydrogen bonding to alter the surface hydrophobicity and charge density. Characterization of the structure and surface properties confirmed that the GO samples decorated with phenylalanine (Phe) and glutamic acid (Glu) exhibited superior hydrophobicity than other modifications, whereas tryptophan (Trp) and cysteine (Cys) provided weaker reduction effects on GO. Moreover, the zeta potential of the samples modified by amino acids of lysine (Lys) and arginine (Arg) is higher than other modified samples. The adsorption amount of lipase on Glu-GO reached 172 mg/g and the relative enzymatic activity reached up to 200%. The thermodynamic data and the Freundlich isotherm model fitting showed that the lipase adsorption process on modified samples was spontaneous, endothermic and entropy increase.
