Supramolecular DNA-based catalysis in organic solvents. iScience 2024; 27:109689. [PMID: 38706840 PMCID: PMC11067378 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.109689] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024] Open
Abstract
The distinct folding accompanied by its polymorphic character renders DNA G-quadruplexes promising biomolecular building blocks to construct novel DNA-based and supramolecular assemblies. However, the highly polar nature of DNA limits the use of G-quadruplexes to water as a solvent. In addition, the archetypical G-quadruplex fold needs to be stabilized by metal-cations, which is usually a potassium ion. Here, we show that a noncovalent PEGylation process enabled by electrostatic interactions allows the first metal-free G-quadruplexes in organic solvents. Strikingly, incorporation of an iron-containing porphyrin renders the self-assembled metal-free G-quadruplex catalytically active in organic solvents. Hence, these "supraG4zymes" enable DNA-based catalysis in organic media. The results will allow the broad utilization of DNA G-quadruplexes in nonaqueous environments.

Abstract
The construction of enzyme-inspired artificial catalysts with enzyme-like active sites and microenvironment remains a great challenge. Herein, we report a single-atomic-site Co catalyst supported by carbon doped boron nitride (BCN) with locally polarized B-N bonds (Co SAs/BCN) to simulate the reductive dehalogenases. Density functional theory analysis suggests that the BCN supports, featured with ionic characteristics, provide additional electric field effect compared with graphitic carbon or N-doped carbon (CN), which could facilitate the adsorption of polarized organochlorides. Consistent with the theoretical results, the Co SAs/BCN catalyst delivers a high activity with nearly complete dechlorination (~98%) at a potential of -0.9 V versus Ag/AgCl for chloramphenicol (CAP), showing that the rate constant (k) contributed by unit mass of metal (k/ratio) is 4 and 19 times more active than those of the Co SAs/CN and state-of-the-art Pd/C catalyst, respectively. We show that Co single atoms coupled with BCN host exhibit high stability and selectivity in CAP dechlorination and suppress the competing hydrogen evolution reaction, endowing the Co SAs/BCN as a candidate for sustainable conversion of organic chloride.
