Abstract
Developing artificial enzymes based on organic molecules or polymers for reactive oxygen species (ROS)-related catalysis has broad applicability. Herein, inspired by porphyrin-based heme mimics, we report the synthesis of polyphthalocyanine-based conjugated polymers (Fe-PPc-AE) as a new porphyrin-evolving structure to serve as efficient and versatile artificial enzymes for augmented reactive oxygen catalysis. Owing to the structural advantages, such as enhanced π-conjugation networks and π-electron delocalization, promoted electron transfer, and unique Fe-N coordination centers, Fe-PPc-AE showed more efficient ROS-production activity in terms of Vmax and turnover numbers as compared with porphyrin-based conjugated polymers (Fe-PPor-AE), which also surpassed reported state-of-the-art artificial enzymes in their activity. More interestingly, by changing the reaction medium and substrates, Fe-PPc-AE also revealed significantly improved activity and environmental adaptivity in many other ROS-related biocatalytic processes, validating the potential of Fe-PPc-AE to replace conventional (poly)porphyrin-based heme mimics for ROS-related catalysis, biosensors, or biotherapeutics. It is suggested that this study will offer essential guidance for designing artificial enzymes based on organic molecules or polymers.

Abstract
Designing a metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived nanozyme with highly dispersed active sites and high catalytic activity as well as robust structure for colorimetric biosensing of diverse biomolecules remains a substantial challenge. Here, an MOF-derived highly dispersed and pure α-cobalt confined in a nitrogen-doped carbon nanofiber (α-Co@NCNF) nanozyme with superior glucose oxidase (GOD)- and peroxidase (POD)-like activities was constructed for colorimetric assay of multiple biomolecules. Specifically, the α-Co@NCNF nanozyme was synthesized, utilizing in situ electrospinning Co-MOFs into polyacrylonitrile nanofiber (PAN) followed by a pyrolysis process. Taking advantage of the in situ electrospinning strategy, the α-Co nanoparticles were confined in continuous porous NCNF to restrict the growth and prevent the aggregation and oxidation during the pyrolysis process. The resulting special structure considerably improved the enzyme-like performance. A series of experiments validate that the enzyme-like activity of the α-Co@NCNF nanozyme was superior to that of Co@CoO@NCNF (derivatives from Co-MOFs grown on the surface of PAN nanofiber) and nature enzymes. Furthermore, α-Co@NCNF nanozyme-based colorimetric biosensing was developed for monitoring glucose, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and glutathione (GSH) and the corresponding linear ranges are 0.1-50 and 50-900 μM and 5-55 and 0.1-20 μM accompanied by the corresponding low detection of 0.03, 1.66, and 0.03 μM. The proposed method for the construction of α-Co@NCNF nanozyme with dual enzyme-like properties provides a new insight for designing novel nanozymes and has prospects for application in colorimetric biosensing.
