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
The conjugation of gold complexes with proteins has proved to be interesting and effective in obtaining artificial metalloenzymes as catalysts with improved properties such as higher stability, activity and selectivity. However, the design and precise regulation of their structure as protein nanostructured forms level remains a challenge. Here, we have designed and constructed a gold nanoparticles-enzyme bioconjugate, by tailoring the in situ formation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) at two specific sites on the structure of an alkalophilic lipase from Geobacillus thermocatenulatus (GTL). For this purpose, two genetically modified variants of GTL were created by inserting a unique cysteine residue into the catalytic active site by replacing the active serine (GTL-114) and into the lid site (GTL-193). The enzyme, after a first protein-gold coordination, induced the in situ formation of AuNPs, generating a homogeneous artificial enzyme. The size and morphology of the nanoparticles in the AuNPs-enzyme conjugate have been controlled by specific pH conditions in synthesis and the specific protein region where they are formed. Reductase activity of all of them was confirmed in the hydrogenation of nitroarenes in aqueous media. The protein area seemed to be key for the AuNPs, with the best TOF values obtained for the bioconjugates with AuNPs in the lid site. Finally, the protein environment and the asymmetric properties of the AuNPs were tested in the reduction of acetophenone to 1-phenylethanol in aqueous medium at room temperature. A high reductive conversion and an enantiomeric excess of up to 39% towards (R)-1-phenylethanol was found using Au-Mt@GTL-114 pH 10 as a catalyst. Moderate enantioselectivity towards the opposite isomer was also observed using the Au-Mt@GTL-193 pH 10 conjugate.

Abstract
Enzymatic processes, particularly those capable of performing redox reactions, have recently been of growing research interest. Substrate specificity, optimal activity at mild temperatures, high selectivity, and yield are among the desirable characteristics of these oxidoreductase catalyzed reactions. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) or NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductases have been extensively studied for their potential applications like biosynthesis of chiral organic compounds, construction of biosensors, and pollutant degradation. One of the main challenges associated with making these processes commercially viable is the regeneration of the expensive cofactors required by the enzymes. Numerous efforts have pursued enzymatic regeneration of NAD(P)H by coupling a substrate reduction with a complementary enzyme catalyzed oxidation of a co-substrate. While offering excellent selectivity and high total turnover numbers, such processes involve complicated downstream product separation of a primary product from the coproducts and impurities. Alternative methods comprising chemical, electrochemical, and photochemical regeneration have been developed with the goal of enhanced efficiency and operational simplicity compared to enzymatic regeneration. Despite the goal, however, the literature rarely offers a meaningful comparison of the total turnover numbers for various regeneration methodologies. This comprehensive Review systematically discusses various methods of NAD(P)H cofactor regeneration and quantitatively compares performance across the numerous methods. Further, fundamental barriers to enhanced cofactor regeneration in the various methods are identified, and future opportunities are highlighted for improving the efficiency and sustainability of commercially viable oxidoreductase processes for practical implementation.

Abstract
Artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) confer non-biological reactivities to biomolecules, whilst taking advantage of the biomolecular architecture in terms of their selectivity and renewable origin. In particular, the design of ArMs by the supramolecular anchoring of metal catalysts to protein hosts provides flexible and easy to optimise systems. The use of cofactor dependent enzymes as hosts gives the advantage of both a (hydrophobic) binding site for the substrate and a cofactor pocket to accommodate the catalyst. Here, we present a computationally driven design approach of ArMs for the transfer hydrogenation reaction of cyclic imines, starting from the NADP+-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase from Thermoanaerobacter brockii (TbADH). We tested and developed a molecular docking workflow to define and optimize iridium catalysts with high affinity for the cofactor binding site of TbADH. The workflow uses high throughput docking of compound libraries to identify key structural motifs for high affinity, followed by higher accuracy docking methods on smaller, focused ligand and catalyst libraries. Iridium sulfonamide catalysts were selected and synthesised, containing either a triol, a furane, or a carboxylic acid to provide the interaction with the cofactor binding pocket. IC50 values of the resulting complexes during TbADH-catalysed alcohol oxidation were determined by competition experiments and were between 4.410 mM and 0.052 mM, demonstrating the affinity of the iridium complexes for either the substrate or the cofactor binding pocket of TbADH. The catalytic activity of the free iridium complexes in solution showed a maximal turnover number (TON) of 90 for the reduction of salsolidine by the triol-functionalised iridium catalyst, whilst in the presence of TbADH, only the iridium catalyst with the triol anchoring functionality showed activity for the same reaction (TON of 36 after 24 h). The observation that the artificial metalloenzymes developed here lacked stereoselectivity demonstrates the need for the further investigation and optimisation of the ArM. Our results serve as a starting point for the design of robust artificial metalloenzymes, exploiting supramolecular anchoring to natural NAD(P)H binding pockets.

Abstract
Artificial metalloenzymes result from anchoring a metal cofactor within a host protein. Such hybrid catalysts combine the selectivity and specificity of enzymes with the versatility of (abiotic) transition metals to catalyze new-to-nature reactions in an evolvable scaffold. With the aim of improving the localization of an arylsulfonamide-bearing iridium-pianostool catalyst within human carbonic anhydrase II (hCAII) for the enantioselective reduction of prochiral imines, we introduced a covalent linkage between the host and the guest. Herein, we show that a judiciously positioned cysteine residue reacts with a p-nitropicolinamide ligand bound to iridium to afford an additional sulfonamide covalent linkage. Three rounds of directed evolution, performed on the dually anchored cofactor, led to improved activity and selectivity for the enantioselective reduction of harmaline (up to 97% ee (R) and >350 turnovers on a preparative scale). To evaluate the substrate scope, the best hits of each generation were tested with eight substrates. X-ray analysis, carried out at various stages of the evolutionary trajectory, was used to scrutinize (i) the nature of the covalent linkage between the cofactor and the host as well as (ii) the remodeling of the substrate-binding pocket.

Abstract
Development of a versatile, sustainable and efficient photosynthesis system that integrates intricate catalytic networks and energy modules at the same location is of considerable future value to energy transformation. In the present study, we develop a coenzyme-mediated supramolecular host-guest semibiological system that combines artificial and enzymatic catalysis for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from alcohol dehydrogenation. This approach involves modification of the microenvironment of a dithiolene-embedded metal-organic cage to trap an organic dye and NADH molecule simultaneously, serving as a hydrogenase analogue to induce effective proton reduction inside the artificial host. This abiotic photocatalytic system is further embedded into the pocket of the alcohol dehydrogenase to couple enzymatic alcohol dehydrogenation. This host-guest approach allows in situ regeneration of NAD+/NADH couple to transfer protons and electrons between the two catalytic cycles, thereby paving a unique avenue for a synergic combination of abiotic and biotic synthetic sequences for photocatalytic fuel and chemical transformation. Abiotic–biotic hybrid systems are promising to trap light for fuel and chemical transformation with high efficacy and selectivity. This study reports a coenzyme-mediated supramolecular host-guest semibiological system combining supramolecular catalyst and enzymes for solar alcohol splitting.

Abstract
Covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs), belonging to the super-family of covalent organic frameworks, have attracted significant attention as a new type of photosensitizer due to the superb light harvesting ability and efficient charge transfer originating from the large surface area. However, the wide optical band gap in CTFs, which is larger than 3.0 eV, hinders the efficient light harvesting in the visible range. To overcome this limitation, we developed the new type CTFs photocatalyst based on the donor-acceptor conjugation scheme by using melamine (M) and 2,6-diaminoanthraquinone (AQ) as monomeric units. The melamine-2,6-diaminoanthraquinone based covalent triazine frameworks (M-AQ-CTFs) photocatalyst shows the excellent light harvesting capacity with high molar extinction coefficient, and the suitable optical band gap involving the internal charge transfer character. Combination of M-AQ-CTFs and artificial photosynthetic system including the organometallic rhodium complex, acting as an electron mediator, exhibited the excellent photocatalytic efficiency for the regeneration of the nicotinamide cofactors such as NAD(P)H. In addition, this photocatalyst showed the high photocatalytic efficiency for the metal-free aerobic oxidation of sulfide. This study demonstrates the high potential of CTFs photocatalyst with the donor-acceptor conjugated scheme can be actively used for the artificial photosynthesis.

Abstract
Artificial metalloenzymes result from the insertion of a catalytically active metal complex into a biological scaffold, generally a protein devoid of other catalytic functionalities. As such, their design requires efforts to engineer substrate binding, in addition to accommodating the artificial catalyst. Here we constructed and characterised artificial metalloenzymes using alcohol dehydrogenase as starting point, an enzyme which has both a cofactor and a substrate binding pocket. A docking approach was used to determine suitable positions for catalyst anchoring to single cysteine mutants, leading to an artificial metalloenzyme capable to reduce both natural cofactors and the hydrophobic 1-benzylnicotinamide mimic. Kinetic studies revealed that the new construct displayed a Michaelis-Menten behaviour with the native nicotinamide cofactors, which were suggested by docking to bind at a surface exposed site, different compared to their native binding position. On the other hand, the kinetic and docking data suggested that a typical enzyme behaviour was not observed with the hydrophobic 1-benzylnicotinamide mimic, with which binding events were plausible both inside and outside the protein. This work demonstrates an extended substrate scope of the artificial metalloenzymes and provides information about the binding sites of the nicotinamide substrates, which can be exploited to further engineer artificial metalloenzymes for cofactor regeneration. SYNOPSIS ABOUT GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT: The manuscript provides information on the design of artificial metalloenzymes based on the bioconjugation of rhodium complexes to alcohol dehydrogenase, to improve their ability to reduce hydrophobic substrates. The graphical abstract presents different binding modes and results observed with native cofactors as substrates, compared to the hydrophobic benzylnicotinamide.

Abstract
In this DFT study, hydrolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a major cause of plastic pollution, by two distinct enzymes, neprilysin (NEP, a mononuclear metalloprotease) and cutinase-like enzyme (CLE, a serine protease), has been investigated. These enzymes utilize different mechanisms for the degradation of PET. NEP uses either the metal-bound hydroxide attack (MH) mechanism or reverse protonation (RP) mechanism, while CLE utilizes a general acid/base mechanism that includes acylation and deacylation processes. Additionally, the RP mechanism of NEP can proceed through three pathways, RP0, RP1, and RP2. The DFT calculations predict that, among all these mechanisms, the MH mechanism is the energetically most favorable one for the NEP enzyme. In comparison, CLE catalyzes this reaction with a significantly higher barrier. These results suggest that the Lewis acid and nucleophile activations provided by the Zn metal center of NEP are more effective than the hydrogen bonding interactions afforded by the catalytic Ser85-His180-Asp165 triad of CLE. They have provided intrinsic details regarding PET degradation and will pave the way for the design of efficient metal-based catalysts for this critical reaction.

Abstract
Metalloproteases and their inhibitors are important in numerous fundamental biochemical phenomena and medical applications. The heterocyclic organic compound, 1,10-phenanthroline, forms a complex with transition metal ions and is a Zn2+-chelating metalloprotease inhibitor; however, the mechanism of 1,10-phenanthroline-based chelation inhibition has not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to understand the structural basis of zinc metalloproteinase inhibition by 1,10-phenanthroline. Herein, the crystal structure of thermolysin was determined in the absence and presence of 1,10-phenanthroline at 1.5 and 1.8 Å, respectively. In native thermolysin, Zn2+ at the active site is tetrahedrally coordinated by His142, His146, Glu166, and water molecule and contains three Ca2+ ions, which are involved in thermostability. In the crystal structure of 1,10-phenanthroline-treated thermolysin crystal, seven 1,10-phenanthroline molecules were observed on the surface of thermolysin. These molecules are stabilized by π- π stacking interactions with aromatic amino acids (Phe63, Tyr66, Tyr110, His216, and Try251) or between the 1,10-phenanthrolines. Moreover, interactions with Ser5 and Arg101 were also observed. In this structure, Zn2+ at the active site was completely chelated, but no large conformational changes were observed in Zn2+ coordination with amino acid residues. Ca2+ at the Ca3 site exposed to the solvent was chelated by 1,10-phenanthroline, resulting in a conformational change in the side chain of Asp56 and Gln61. Based on the surface structure, for 1,10-phenanthroline to chelate a metal, it is important that the metal is exposed on the protein surface and that there is no steric hindrance impairing 1,10-phenanthroline access by the amino acids around the metal.

Abstract
A Cp*Rh(III)-dithiophosphate cofactor with "latent" catalytic activity was developed to construct an artificial metalloenzyme representing a new type of biohybrid catalyst which is capable of promoting C(sp2)-H bond functionalization within the β-barrel structure of nitrobindin (NB). To covalently conjugate the Cp*Rh(III) cofactor into a specific position of the hydrophobic cavity of NB via a maleimide-Cys linkage, strong chelation of the dithiophosphate ligand is employed to protect the rhodium metal center against attack by nucleophilic amino acid residues in the protein. It is found that subsequent addition of the Ag+ ion induces dissociation of the dithiophosphate ligands, thereby activating the catalytic activity of the Cp*Rh(III) cofactor. The resulting "active" biohybrid catalyst promotes cycloaddition of acetophenone oxime with diphenylacetylene via C(sp2)-H bond activation. This catalytic activity is enhanced 2.3-fold with the introduction of two glutamate residues (A100E/L125E) adjacent to the Cp*Rh(III) cofactor. The Cp*Rh(III) cofactor with switchable activity from a "latent" form to an "active" form provides a new strategy for generating biohybrid catalysts incorporating a variety of highly reactive transition metal complexes specifically within its protein scaffolds.

Abstract
Combining organometallics and biology has generated broad interest from scientists working on applications from in situ drug release to biocatalysis. Engineered enzymes and biohybrid catalysts (also referred to as artificial enzymes) have introduced a wide range of abiotic chemistry into biocatalysis. Predominantly, this work has concentrated on using these catalysts for single step in vitro reactions. However, the promise of using these hybrid catalysts in vivo and combining them with synthetic biology and metabolic engineering is vast. This report will briefly review recent advances in artificial metalloenzyme design, followed by summarising recent studies that have looked at the use of these hybrid catalysts in vivo and in enzymatic cascades, therefore exploring their potential for synthetic biology.

Abstract
Artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) comprise a synthetic metal complex in a protein scaffold. ArMs display performances combining those of both homogeneous catalysts and biocatalysts. Specifically, ArMs selectively catalyze non-natural reactions and reactions inspired by nature in water under mild conditions. In the past few years, the construction of ArMs that possess a genetically incorporated unnatural amino acid and the directed evolution of ArMs have become of great interest in the field. Additionally, biochemical applications of ArMs have steadily increased, owing to the fact that compartmentalization within a protein scaffold allows the synthetic metal complex to remain functional in a sea of inactivating biomolecules. In this review, we present updates on: 1) the newly reported ArMs, according to their type of reaction, and 2) the unique biochemical applications of ArMs, including chemoenzymatic cascades and intracellular/in vivo catalysis. We believe that ArMs have great potential as catalysts for organic synthesis and as chemical biology tools for pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
Direct transfer of protons and electrons between two tandem reactions is still a great challenge, because overall reaction kinetics is seriously affected by diffusion rate of the proton and electron carriers. We herein report a host–guest supramolecular strategy based on the incorporation of NADH mimics onto the surface of a metal-organic capsule to encapsulate flavin analogues for catalytic biomimetic monooxygenations in conjunction with enzymes. Coupling an artificial catalysis and a natural enzymatic catalysis in the pocket of an enzyme, this host–guest catalyst–enzyme system allows direct proton and electron transport between two catalytic processes via NADH mimics for the monooxygenation of both cyclobutanones and thioethers. This host–guest approach, which involves the direct coupling of abiotic and biotic catalysts via a NADH-containing host, is quite promising compared to normal catalyst–enzyme systems, as it offers the key advantages of supramolecular catalysis in integrated chemical and biological synthetic sequences. Combining artificial and natural enzymes is a strategy to mimic biocatalytic processes with high efficiency and selectivity. This study reports a dual catalytic system composed of flavin adenine dinucleotide model and NADH mimics to catalyze the monooxygenation of cyclobutanones and thioethers.

Abstract
In order to harness the functionality of metals, nature has evolved over billions of years to utilize metalloproteins as key components in numerous cellular processes. Despite this, transition metals such as ruthenium, palladium, iridium, and gold are largely absent from naturally occurring metalloproteins, likely due to their scarcity as precious metals. To mimic the evolutionary process of nature, the field of artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) was born as a way to benefit from the unique chemoselectivity and orthogonality of transition metals in a biological setting. In its current state, numerous examples have successfully incorporated transition metals into a variety of protein scaffolds. Using these ArMs, many examples of new-to-nature reactions have been carried out, some of which have shown substantial biocompatibility. Given the rapid rate at which this field is growing, this review aims to highlight some important studies that have begun to take the next step within this field; namely the development of ArM-centered drug therapies or biotechnological tools.

Abstract
A large number of industrially relevant enzymes depend upon dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) cofactors, which are too expensive to be added in stoichiometric amounts. Existing NAD(P)H-recycling systems suffer from low activity, or the generation of side products. This review focuses on NAD(P)H cofactor regeneration catalyzed by transition metal complexes such as rhodium, ruthenium and iridium complexes using cheap reducing agents such as hydrogen (H2) and ethanol, which have attracted increasing attention as sustainable energy carriers. The catalytic mechanisms for the regioselective reduction of NAD(P)+ are discussed with emphasis on identification of catalytically active intermediates such as transition metal hydride complexes. Applications of NAD(P)H-recycling systems to develop artificial photosynthesis are also discussed.

Abstract
Artificial metalloenzymes that combine the advantages of natural enzymes and metal catalysts have been getting more attention in research. As a proof of concept, an artificial nanometalloenzyme (CALB-Shvo@MiMBN) was prepared by co-encapsulation of metallo-organic catalyst and enzyme in a soft nanocomposite consisting of 2-methylimidazole, metal ions, and biosurfactant in mild reaction conditions using a one-pot self-assembly method. The artificial nanometalloenzyme with lipase acted as the core, and the metallo-organic catalyst embedded in micropore exhibited a spherical structure of 30-50 nm in diameter. The artificial nanometalloenzyme showed high catalytic efficiency in the dynamic kinetic resolution of racemic primary amines or secondary alcohols compared to the one-pot catalytic reaction of immobilized lipase and free metallo-organic catalyst. This artificial nanometalloenzyme holds great promise for integrated enzymatic and heterogeneous catalysis.
