Two enzyme reactors prepared by the co-immobilization of two different glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases (G6PDH; from Leuconstoc mescenteroides (LM) and yeast (Y) and diaphorase are employed to enhance the sensitivity of NAD(P) coenzymes as on-line amplifiers based on substrate recycling in a chemiluminometric flow-injection system. The NAD(P) coenzymes are recycled enzymatically during passage through the reactor in the presence of sufficient glucose-6-phosphate and oxygen in the carrier solution to produce a large amount of hydrogen peroxide, which is detected chemiluminometrically in the subsequent flow line. The G6PDH(LM)/diaphorase co-immobilized reactor is not specific between the NAD and NADP coenzymes, but shows a six fold selectivity towards NADP coenzymes compared to NAD coenzymes; the amplification factors for NAD and NADP coenzymes are 60 and 380, respectively, at a flow rate of 0.3 ml min(-1). In contrast, the G6PDH(Y)/diaphorase co-immobilized reactor is specific for NADP coenzymes with an amplification factor of about 600 (at a flow rate of 0.3 ml min(-1)). The detection limit is 6 fmol for both NADP(+) and NADPH.

This study investigates the stress-mitigating effects of endophytic Penicillium funiculosum LHL06 on soybean roots via modulation of physio-biochemical, molecular, and proteomic responses to combined heavy metal (Ni, Cu, Pb, Cr, and Al) toxicity. Preliminary screening revealed that LHL06 can tolerate and remediate combined heavy metal contamination in its media and upregulate gibberellins (GA1, GA3, GA4, GA7 and GA9) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production. Inoculation of LHL06 resulted in marked reduction of metals uptake in roots and shoots by downregulating heavy metal ATPase genes (GmHMA13, GmHMA14, GmHMA19) and GmMATE1 compared to non-inoculated plants; in turn, this decreased abscisic acid and jasmonic acid levels. Moreover, triggering of free amino acid metabolism in LHL06-inoculated roots significantly upregulated expression of stress-related proteins (glutathione S-transferase L3, isoflavone reductase-like, chalcone isomerase A, NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (quinone), FQR1-like 1 isoform X2, and Peroxidase 3) to combat metals toxicity. Compared to non-inoculated-plants, LHL06-inoculated-plants exhibited higher antioxidant activity and transcript accumulation of glutathione S-transferase (GmGST8 and GmGST3), G6PDH, and GmSOD1[Cu-Zn], which decreased metal-induced reactive oxygen species. Therefore, LHL06-inoculation remediate combined metal contamination in soil, activate signaling network of stress-responsive hormones and antioxidant systems for promoting growth and tolerance, and reduce metal-accumulation, thereby making plants safer for consumption.
