Understanding and controlling the metal-directed assembly of terpyridine-functionalized coiled-coil peptides

Spectroscopic elucidation of the interaction between terpyridine-functionalized coiled-coil peptides and Cu(ii) enables the construction of rationally designed supramolecular lattices.

Catalytic and biophysical investigation of rhodium hydroformylase

Rh-Containing artificial metalloenzymes based on two mutants of sterol carrier protein_2L (SCP_2L) have been shown to act as hydroformylases, exhibiting significant activity and unexpectedly high selectivity in the hydroformylation of alkenes.

Hemin-catalyzed biomimetic oxidative phenol–indole [3 + 2] reactions in aqueous media

A hemin/H₂O₂ catalytic system for oxidative phenol–indole [3 + 2] coupling in aqueous solution has been developed, enabling benign synthesis of valuable benzofuroindolines under sustainable conditions.

Chemoenzymatic cascade for stilbene production from cinnamic acid catalyzed by ferulic acid decarboxylase and an artificial metathease

We report a chemoenzymatic cascade reaction for stilbene production combining decarboxylation and olefin metathesis with efficient removal of metal contamination.
