Abstract
Despite the extensive and rapid discovery of modern drugs for treatment of cancer, microbial infections, and viral illnesses; these diseases are still among major global health concerns. To take inspiration from natural nucleases and also the therapeutic potential of metallopeptide antibiotics such as the bleomycin family, artificial metallonucleases with the ability of promoting DNA/RNA cleavage and eventually affecting cellular biological processes can be introduced as a new class of therapeutic candidates. Metal complexes can be considered as one of the main categories of artificial metalloscissors, which can prompt nucleic acid strand scission. Accordingly, biologists, inorganic chemists, and medicinal inorganic chemists worldwide have been designing, synthesizing and evaluating the biological properties of metal complexes as artificial metalloscissors. In this review, we try to highlight the recent studies conducted on the nuclease-like metalloscissors and their potential therapeutic applications. Under the light of the concurrent Covid-19 pandemic, the human need for new therapeutics was highlighted much more than ever before. The nuclease-like metalloscissors with the potential of RNA cleavage of invading viral pathogens hence deserve prime attention.

Remarkable reactivity of alkoxide/acetato-bridged binuclear copper(II) complex as artificial carboxylesterase. J Biol Inorg Chem 2017; 22:625-635.

Abstract
Bromo-containing binuclear Schiff base copper(II) complex, Cu2L(OAc), with an alkoxo/acetato-bridged moiety was employed as a model of carboxylesterases to promote the hydrolytic cleavage of p-nitrophenyl picolinate (PNPP). Furthermore, the reactivity of a mononuclear complex (CuHL) was evaluated for comparing it with that of binuclear one. The results reveal that the as-prepared binuclear Cu2L(OAc) efficiently accelerated the hydrolysis of PNPP, giving rise to excess four orders of magnitude rate enhancement in contrast to the un-catalyzed reaction. Cu2L(OAc) represented an enzyme-like bell-shaped pH-responsive kinetic behavior. Moreover, the binuclear one is more reactive than its mononuclear analogue (CuHL) by two orders of magnitude. The total efficiency of Cu2L(OAc) is about 61-fold than that of its mononuclear analogue, CuHL. In addition, a contrast experiment reveals that binuclear Cu2L(OAc) displayed good activity in the hydrolysis of PNPP as well another active ester, i.e., S-2-benzothiazolyl 2-amino-alpha-(methoxyimino)-4-thiazolethiolacetate (AE-active ester). Noteworthyly, it was found that mononuclear one inspired more obvious rate enhancement in the hydrolysis of AE-active ester relative to PNPP hydrolysis. The estimated pK a1 of bound water on the binuclear Cu2L(OAc) using second derivative method (SDM) is relatively smaller than that for CuHL by a gap of about 0.8 pK unit, which facilitates the hydrolysis of PNPP. Four orders of magnitude rate enhancement was observed for the catalytic hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl picolinate (PNPP) by one μ-alkoxide/acetato-bridged binuclear copper(II) complex under physiological conditions. Substrate specificity of the resulting binuclear complexes was observed for the hydrolysis of PNPP and AE-active ester.

Abstract
Recent advances in nanomaterials have identified nanogels as an excellent matrix for novel biomimetic catalysts using the molecular imprinting approach. Polymerisable Co‐cyclen complexes with phosphonate and carbonate templates have been prepared, fully characterised and used to obtain nanogels that show high activity and turnover with low catalytic load, compared to the free complex, in the hydrolysis of 4‐nitrophenyl phosphate, a nerve agent simulant. This work demonstrates that the chemical structure of the template has an impact on the coordination geometry and oxidation state of the metal centre in the polymerisable complex resulting in very significant changes in the catalytic properties of the polymeric matrix. Both pseudo‐octahedral cobalt(III) and trigonal‐bipyramidal cobalt(II) structures have been used for the synthesis of imprinted nanogels, and the catalytic data demonstrate that: i) the imprinted nanogels can be used in 15 % load and show turnover; ii) the structural differences in the polymeric matrices resulting from the imprinting approach with different templates are responsible for the molecular recognition capabilities and the catalytic activity. Nanogel P1, imprinted with the carbonate template, shows >50 % higher catalytic activity than P2 imprinted with the phosphonate.
