Abstract
Enzymatic browning and microbial contamination of food threaten food sensory and safety. With the development of green and healthy concepts, there is a greater need for efficient, low-carbon antioxidant and antimicrobial strategies. In this study, we designed a nano-enzyme with antioxidant activities and biocompatibility. By mimicking the active center of the natural SOD enzyme, copper (Cu) and ovalbumin (OVA) were self-assembled to form Cu-nano-polymerised sheet (Cu-NPS), in which OVA as a scaffold carries cofactors to create the active sites, making the nanoenzymes compatible with the antioxidant activity and antimicrobial properties of Cu, and at the same time possessing good stability and biocompatibility. These properties enable Cu-NPS to have a broader application range, for removing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and broad-spectrum sterilization. Subsequently, Cu-NPS was doped into carrageenan (Carr) to form a nanocomposite film, effectively inhibiting enzymatic browning and microbial contamination. In this work, protein-based mimetic enzymes as artificial nanoenzymes have advantages over natural enzymes, and the Cu-NPS with simple synthesis, high stability, and diverse properties, provides new ideas for the design of functional materials.

Abstract
Infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to many drugs are a major threat to public health in many countries around the world. Here we demonstrate the creation of heterogeneous catalytic nanomaterials with outstanding antimicrobial properties against several superbugs. We have shown that replacing a small amount of copper in a generated copper-phosphate-enzyme nanoflower hybrid with silver drastically increases the antimicrobial capacity of the nanomaterial. In this sense, it has been confirmed that the exchange generated silver phosphate nanoparticles on the Cu nanoflowers, with control of the nanoparticle diameter size. The Fenton catalytic activity of the Ag-containing nanobiohybrids was affected, showing better performance with lower amounts of silver in the final hybrid. This effect was confirmed by their antimicrobial efficacy against Escherichia coli, where the Ag4Cu32@CALB hybrid displayed a log reduction of 3.9, an efficiency more than 5000 times higher than that obtained with copper nanoflowers (Cu36@CALB). The hybrid also showed excellent efficacy against other bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Mycobacterium smegmatis with log reductions of 7.6, 4.3, and 1.8, respectively.

Abstract
Laccase is an oxidase of great industrial interest due to its ability to catalyze oxidation processes of phenols and persistent organic pollutants. However, it is susceptible to denaturation at high temperatures, sensitive to pH, and unstable in the presence of high concentrations of solvents, which is a issue for industrial use. To solve this problem, this work develops the synthesis in an aqueous medium of a new Mn metalloenzyme with laccase oxidase mimetic catalytic activity. Geobacillus thermocatenulatus lipase (GTL) was used as a scaffold enzyme, mixed with a manganese salt at 50 °C in an aqueous medium. This leads to the in situ formation of manganese(IV) oxide nanowires that interact with the enzyme, yielding a GTL-Mn bionanohybrid. On the other hand, its oxidative activity was evaluated using the ABTS assay, obtaining a catalytic efficiency 300 times higher than that of Trametes versicolor laccase. This new Mn metalloenzyme was 2 times more stable at 40 °C, 3 times more stable in the presence of 10% acetonitrile, and 10 times more stable in 20% acetonitrile than Novozym 51003 laccase. Furthermore, the site-selective immobilized GTL-Mn showed a much higher stability than the soluble form. The oxidase-like activity of this Mn metalloenzyme was successfully demonstrated against other substrates, such as l-DOPA or phloridzin, in oligomerization reactions.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) poses a significant therapeutic challenge due to its invasive nature and limited drug penetration through the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In response, here we present an innovative biomimetic approach involving the development of genetically engineered exosome nanocatalysts (Mn@Bi2Se3@RGE-Exos) for efficient GBM therapy via improving the BBB penetration and enzyme-like catalytic activities. Interestingly, a photothermally activatable multiple enzyme-like reactivity is observed in such a nanosystem. Upon NIR-II light irradiation, Mn@Bi2Se3@RGE-Exos are capable of converting hydrogen peroxide into hydroxyl radicals, oxygen, and superoxide radicals, providing a peroxidase (POD), oxidase (OXD), and catalase (CAT)-like nanocatalytic cascade. This consequently leads to strong oxidative stresses to damage GBM cells. In vitro, in vivo, and proteomic analysis further reveal the potential of Mn@Bi2Se3@RGE-Exos for the disruption of cellular homeostasis, enhancement of immunological response, and the induction of cancer cell ferroptosis, showcasing a great promise in anticancer efficacy against GBM with a favorable biosafety profile. Overall, the success of this study provides a feasible strategy for future design and clinical study of stimuli-responsive nanocatalytic medicine, especially in the context of challenging brain cancers like GBM.

Abstract
Since the discovery of ferromagnetic nanoparticles Fe3O4 that exhibit enzyme-like activity in 2007, the research on nanoenzymes has made significant progress. With the in-depth study of various nanoenzymes and the rapid development of related nanotechnology, nanoenzymes have emerged as a promising alternative to natural enzymes. Within nanozymes, there is a category of metal-based single-atom nanozymes that has been rapidly developed due to low cast, convenient preparation, long storage, less immunogenicity, and especially higher efficiency. More importantly, single-atom nanozymes possess the capacity to scavenge reactive oxygen species through various mechanisms, which is beneficial in the tissue repair process. Herein, this paper systemically highlights the types of metal single-atom nanozymes, their catalytic mechanisms, and their recent applications in tissue repair. The existing challenges are identified and the prospects of future research on nanozymes composed of metallic nanomaterials are proposed. We hope this review will illuminate the potential of single-atom nanozymes in tissue repair, encouraging their sequential clinical translation.

Abstract
Metalloenzymes represent exemplary systems in which an organic scaffold combines with a functional inorganic entity, resulting in excellent redox catalysts. Inspired by these natural hybrid biomolecules, biomolecular templates have garnered significant attention for the controlled synthesis of inorganic nanostructures. These nanostructures ultimately benefit from the protection and colloidal stabilization provided by the biomacromolecule. In this study, we have employed this strategy to prepare nanozymes with redox capabilities, utilizing the versatile catalytic profile of Pt-loaded nanomaterials. Thus, we have investigated protein-templated Pt-based nanoclusters of different sizes and compositions, which exhibit remarkable oxidase, catalase, and reductase-like activities. The interplay between the composition and catalytic activity highlighted the size of the nanocluster as the most prominent factor in determining the performance of the nanozymes. Additionally, we have demonstrated the use of protein-templated nanozymes as potential co-catalysts in combination with enzymes for coupled reactions, under both sequential and concurrent one-pot conditions. This study provides valuable insights into nanozyme design and its wide range of applications in the design of complex catalytic systems.

Abstract
In this work, nanostructured copper materials have been designed, synthetized, and evaluated in order to produce a more efficient and sustainable copper bionanohybrid with catalytical and antimicrobial properties. Thus, conditions are sought where the most critical steps are reduced or minimized, such as the use of reducing agents or the cryogenization step. In addition, the new materials have been characterized through different techniques, and their oxidative and reductive capacities, as well as their antimicrobial activity, have been evaluated. The addition of different quantities of a reducing agent in the synthesis method generated copper bionanohybrids with different metallic species, nanoparticles sizes, and structures. The antimicrobial properties of the bionanohybrids were studied against different strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria through two different methods: by counting the CFU and via the disk diffusion test, respectively. The bionanohybrids have demonstrated that different efficiencies depending on the bacterial strain were confronted with. The Cu-PHOS-100% R hybrids with the highest percentage of reduction showed the best antimicrobial efficiency against Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria (>96 or >77% in 4 h, respectively) compared to 31% bacteria reduction using Cu-PHOS-0% R. Also, the antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis materials was obtained with Cu-PHOS-100% R (31 mm inhibition zone and 125 μg/mL minimum inhibitory concentration value). Interestingly, the better antimicrobial activity of the nanobiohybrids against Gram-positive bacteria Mycobacterium smegmatis was obtained with some with a lower reduction step in the synthesis, Cu-PHOS-10% R or Cu-PHOS-20% R (>94% bacterial reduction in 4 h).

Abstract
The biological molecules used in the sandwich detection method have problems such as complex extraction processes, high costs, and uneven quality. Therefore we integrated glycoprotein molecularly controllable-oriented surface imprinted magnetic nanoparticles (GMC-OSIMN) and boric acid functionalized pyrite nanozyme probe (BPNP) to replace the traditional antibody and horseradish peroxidase for sensitive detection of glycoproteins through sandwich detection. In this work, a novel nanozyme functionalized with boric acid was used to label glycoproteins that were captured by GMC-OSIMN. The substrate in the working solution catalyzed by the nanozyme labeled on the protein underwent visible color changes to the naked eye, and the generated signal can be quantitatively detected by a spectrophotometer, and the best color development conditions of the novel nanozyme under the influence of many factors were determined through multi-dimensional investigation. The optimum conditions of sandwich are optimized with ovalbumin (OVA), and it was extended to the detection of transferrin (TRF) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the application. The detection range for TRF was 2.0 × 10-1-1.0 × 104 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 1.32 × 10-1 ng mL-1, The detection range for ALP was 2.0 × 10-3-1.0 × 102 U L-1 with the detection limit of 1.76 × 10-3 U L-1. This method was subsequently used to detect TRF and ALP levels in 16 liver cancer patients, and the standard deviation of the test results of each patient was less than 5.7%.

[PMID: 36705059 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202212438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
Nanomaterials with enzyme-like activities, termed as nanozymes, have found wide applications in various fields. It has been a long-term aim to rationally design and synthesize highly active nanozymes and thus to further improve their application performance. Guided by the nanoconfinement effect, we confine cytochrome c (Cyt c) within a mesoporous metal-organic framework (MOF), PCN-222 nanoparticle (NP), forming a protein/MOF hybrid nanozyme, termed as Cyt c@PCN-222 NP. The confined Cyt c exhibits around 3-4-fold higher peroxidase-like activity than free Cyt c. Due to the increase in the activity of Cyt c, the Cyt c@PCN-222 NPs exhibit a quite low limit of detection (≈0.13 μM) towards H2 O2 . Sonication-induced H2 O2 formation in water by using a lab-quipped ultrasonic cleaner can be sensitively probed, which suggests that H2 O2 -sensitive materials should be carefully handled during the utilization of ultrasonic equipment. We speculate that this nanoconfinement strategy can broaden our synthetic methodology for the rational design of nanozymes.

Abstract
In this work, Cu2O nanoparticles (NPs) were created in situ on graphene functionalized with Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (G@TLL) where site-oriented supported TLL acted as template and binder in the presence of copper salt by tailorable synthesis under mild conditions, producing a heterogeneous catalyst. Cu2O NPs were confirmed by XRD and XPS. The TEM microscopy showed that the nanoparticles were homogeneously distributed over the G@TLL surface with sizes of 53 nm and 165 nm. This G@TLL-Cu2O hybrid was successfully used in the degradation of toxic organic compounds such as trichloroethylene (TCE) and Rhodamine B (RhB). In the case of TCE, the hybrid presented a high catalytic capacity, degrading 60 ppm of product in 60 min in aqueous solution and room temperature without the formation of other toxic subproducts. In addition, a TOF value of 7.5 times higher than the unsupported counterpart (TLL-Cu2O) was obtained, demonstrating the improved catalytic efficiency of the system in the solid phase. The hybrid also presented an excellent catalytic performance for the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) obtaining a complete degradation (48 ppm) in 50 min in aqueous solution and room temperature and with the presence of a green oxidant as H2O2.

Abstract
The effect of the temperature in the synthesis of Pd nanoparticles in the metal-enzyme biohybrids is evaluated. The effect on the formation, size, and morphology of nanoparticles was evaluated using C. antarctica B lipase as the protein scaffold. XRD analyses confirmed the formation of crystalline Pd(0) as the metal species in all cases. TEM analyses revealed spherical crystalline nanoparticles with average diameter size from 2 nm at 4 °C synthesis to 10 nm obtained at 50 °C synthesis. The thermal phenomenon was also critical in the final hybrid formation using more complex enzymes, where the relation of the protein structure and temperature and the influence of the latter has been demonstrated to be critical in the reducing efficiency of the enzyme in the final Pd nanoparticle formation, in the metal species, or even in the final size of the nanoparticles. Different Pd biohybrids were evaluated as catalysts in the C-H activation of protected l-tryptophan under mild conditions. Pd@CALB4 showed the best results, with >99% conversion for C-2 arylation in methanol at room temperature with a TOF value of 64 min-1, being 2 or 4 times higher than that of the other synthesized hybrids. This catalyst showed a very high stability and recyclability, maintaining >95% activity after three cycles of use.

Abstract
CuO nanorods bearing Au nanoparticles (Au/CuO nanocomposites) were prepared by a solution-phase synthesis and exhibited efficient hydroquinone (HQ)-oxidase activity with good specificity. The Au/CuO nanocomposites effectively catalyzed the oxidation of colorless HQ to brown benzoquinone with an absorbance maximum at 376 nm but did not catalyze the conversions of catechol or resorcinol. Kinetic studies indicated that the Au/CuO nanocomposites exhibited a strong affinity for HQ, with a Michaelis-Menten constant of Km = 0.33 mM. Owing to the high catalytic activity and specificity, a strong color was observed at low concentrations of HQ. Quantitative measurement of HQ was performed via colorimetric analysis, which yielded a detection limit of 3 μM with a linear range of 5-200 μM. This colorimetric sensor was successfully applied to an HQ assay of real water samples with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Novel hybrids containing silver or gold nanoparticles have been synthesized in aqueous media and at room temperature using enzymes or tailor-made enzyme-polymer conjugates, which directly induced the formation of inorganic silver or gold species. The choice of pH, protein, or bioconjugate strongly affected the final metallic nanoparticles hybrid formation. Using Candida antarctica lipase (CALB) in a solution, nanobiohybrids containing Ag2O nanoparticles of 9 nm average diameter were obtained. The use of tailor-made bioconjugates, for example, the CALB modified with dextran-aspartic acid polymer (Dext6kDa), resulted in a nanobiohybrid containing smaller Ag(0)/Ag2O nanoparticles. In the case of nanobiohybrids based on gold, Au(0) species were found in all cases. The Au-CALB hybrid contained spherical nanoparticles with 18 nm average diameter size, with a minor range of larger ones (>100 nm) while the AuNPs-CALB-Dext6kDa hybrid was formed by much smaller nanoparticles (9 nm, minor range of 22 nm), and also nanorods of 20-30/40-50 nm length. Using Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (TLL), apart from the nanoparticle formation, nanoflowers with a diameter range of 100-200 nm were obtained. All nanobiohybrids maintained (dual) enzymatic and metallic activities. For instance, these nanobiohybrids exhibited exquisite dual-activity for hydrolysis/cycloisomerization cascades starting from allenic acetates. By merging the transition metal reactivity with the inherent lipase catalysis, allenic acetates directly converted to the corresponding O-heterocycles in enantiopure form catalysed by AgNPs-CALB-Dext6kDa, taking advantage of a kinetic resolution/cyclization pathway. These results showed the high applicability of these novel hybrids, offering new opportunities for the design of novel reaction cascades.
