Abstract

Abstract:

Loading the enzyme on the carrier can improve the stability of the enzyme in industrial applications and facilitate repeated use. Utilizing nanostructured materials for enzyme immobilization has offered unprecedented opportunities in enhancing enzyme stability in adverse conditions found in industrial practices and thus extending the application spectra of enzymatic catalysis. This review summarizes recent progress of our group in exploring nanostructured enzyme catalysts using inorganic crystals, metal-organic frameworks, graphene and environmentally responsive polymers as matrixes, as well as a new molecular simulation method that combines with Markov-state modeling for establishing a process profile with molecular insight. The prospects of the nanostructured enzyme catalysts are also discussed.

Key words: enzyme immobilization, nanomaterials, biocatalysis, enzymatic catalysis
