Abstract
Artificial enzymes, as alternatives to natural enzymes, have attracted enormous attention in the fields of catalysis, biosensing, diagnostics, and therapeutics because of their high stability and low cost. Polyoxometalates (POMs), a class of inorganic metal oxides, have recently shown great potential in mimicking enzyme activity due to their well-defined structure, tunable composition, high catalytic efficiency, and easy storage properties. This review focuses on the recent advances in POM-based artificial enzymes. Different types of POMs and their derivatives-based mimetic enzyme functions are covered, as well as the corresponding catalytic mechanisms (where available). An overview of the broad applications of representative POM-based artificial enzymes from biosensing to theragnostic is provided. Insight into the current challenges and the future directions for POMs-based artificial enzymes is discussed.

Abstract
Exploring multifaceted and highly sensitive biosensors is a major challenge in biotechnology and medical diagnosis. Here, we create a new iridium (Ir) cluster-anchored metal-organic framework (MOF, namely, IrNCs@Ti-MOF via a coordination-assisted strategy) as a peroxidase (POD)-mimetic nanoreactor for colorimetrically diagnosing hydrogen peroxide-related biomarkers. Owing to the IrNCs-N/O coordination of Ti-MOF and unique enzymatic properties of Ir clusters, the IrNCs@Ti-MOF exhibits exceptional and exclusive POD-mimetic activities (Km = 3.94 mM, Vmax = 1.70 μM s-1, and turnover number = 39.64 × 10-3 s-1 for H2O2), thus demonstrating excellent POD-mimetic detecting activity and also super substrate selectivity, which is considerably more efficient than recently reported POD mimetics. Colorimetric studies disclose that this IrNCs@Ti-MOF-based nanoreactor shows multifaceted and efficient diagnosing activities and substrate selectivity, such as a limit of detection (LOD): 14.12 μM for H2O2 at a range of 0-900 μM, LOD: 3.41 μM for l-cysteine at a range of 0-50 μM, and LOD: 20.0 μM for glucose at a range of 0-600 μM, which enables an ultrasensitive and visual determination of abundant H2O2-related biomarkers. The proposed design will not only provide highly sensitive and cheap colorimetric biosensors in medical resource-limited areas but also offer a new path to engineering customizable enzyme-mimetic nanoreactors as a powerful tool for accurate and rapid diagnosis.

Abstract
Artificial enzyme mimetics have received considerable attention because natural enzymes have some significant drawbacks, including enzyme autolysis, low catalytic activity, poor recovery, and low stability to environmental changes. Herein, we demonstrated a facile approach for one-pot synthesis of hemeprotein-metal organic framework hybrid composites (H-MOFs) by using bovine hemoglobin (BHb) and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) as a model reaction system. Surprisingly, the new hybrid composites exhibit 423% increase in peroxidase-like catalytic activity compared to free BHb. Taking advantages of the unique pore structure of H-MOFs with high catalytic property, a H-MOFs-based colorimetric biosensing platform was newly constructed and applied for the fast and sensitive detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and phenol. The corresponding detection limits as low as 1.0 μM for each analyte with wide linear ranges (0-800 μM for H2O2 and 0-200 μM for phenol) were obtained by naked-eye visualization. Significantly, a sensitive and selective method for visual assay of trace H2O2 in cells and phenol in sewage was achieved with this platform. The stability of H-MOFs was also examined, and excellent reproducibility and recyclability without losing in their activity were observed. In addition, the general applicability of H-MOFs was also investigated by using other hemeproteins (horseradish peroxidase, and myoglobin), and the corresponding catalytic activities were 291% and 273% enhancement, respectively. This present work not only expands the application of MOFs but also provides an alternative technique for biological and environmental sample assay.

Abstract
In the present work, a novel label-free chemiluminescent (CL) immunoassay method was designed by employing smart CuS nanoparticles (CuSNPs) as peroxidase mimetics. The CuSNPs were synthesized through a simple coprecipitation method, and showed high catalytic activity and stability. This efficient label-free CL immunoassay could be easily achieved through a simple strategy. First, CuSNPs dispersed in chitosan were modified on the epoxy-functionalized glass slide to form a solid CL signal interface. Streptavidin was then used to functionalize CuSNPs to capture the biotinylated antibody, further producing a sensing interface. After online incubation with antigen molecules, the formed antibody-antigen complex on the biosensing substrate could prevent the diffusion channel of CL substrate toward the signal interface, and restrained the mimic enzyme-catalyzed CL reaction, finally resulting in the decrease of CL signals of the assay system. Compared to the label-based CL immunoassay, the proposed label-free assay mode is more simple, cheap and fast. Using a model analyte alpha-fetoprotein, the label-free CL immunoassay method had a linear range of 0.1-60 ng/mL and a low detection limit of 0.07 ng/mL. Moreover, the peroxidase mimetic-based label-free CL immunoassay system showed good specificity, acceptable repeatability, and good accuracy. The study provided a promising strategy for the development of highly efficient label-free CL immunoassay system.

Abstract
As substitutes for natural peroxidases, most nanomaterial-based enzyme mimetics (nanozymes) have unique properties such as high stability, low-cost, large surface area, and high catalytic activity. However, they usually work in acidic conditions and thus impede their real applications. In this work, by modulating the nanostructure, composition, and surface property of the bimetallic materials, the positively charged poly(diallyldimethylammonium)-stabilized Au@Ag heterogeneous nanorods (NRs) were developed as synergistic peroxidase-like interfaces, which exhibited high activity over a wide pH range (pH 4.0-6.5) using 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) as the chromogenic substrate. At pH 6.5, the peroxidase-like activity for the Au@Ag heterogeneous NRs was stable and optimal within 20-40 °C. Moreover, the Au@Ag heterogeneous NRs showed excellent temperature stability and long-term storage stability. Given these characters, the detection of H2O2 at pH 6.5 was proposed on the basis of the Au@Ag heterogeneous NRs catalyzing the colorimetric reaction of H2O2 and ABTS, where the oxidized ABTS showed a typical absorption peak at 414 nm. The absorbance at 414 nm was linear with H2O2 concentration from 0.01 to 10 mM. Further, considering that Au@Ag heterogeneous NRs and glucose oxidase (GOx) have similar optimal pH for catalytic activities, a novel one-pot method for the detection of glucose was developed by the coupled catalytic reaction using GOx, Au@Ag heterogeneous NRs, and ABTS at nearly neutral pH (pH 6.5) and 37 °C. This proposed method had simple and rapid processes, wide linear range (0.05-20 mM), and reliability for the successful analysis of real samples. On the basis of these attractive and unique characteristics, Au@Ag heterogeneous NRs can become promising substitutes for peroxidase in analytical chemistry and environmental science.

Abstract
The determination of peroxidase activities is the basis for enzyme-labeled bioaffinity assays, peroxidase-mimicking DNAzymes- and nanoparticles-based assays, and characterization of the catalytic functions of peroxidase mimetics. Here, a facile, sensitive, and cost-effective solvent polymeric membrane-based peroxidase detection platform is described that utilizes reaction intermediates with different pKa values from those of substrates and final products. Several key but long-debated intermediates in the peroxidative oxidation of o-phenylenediamine (o-PD) have been identified and their charge states have been estimated. By using a solvent polymeric membrane functionalized by an appropriate substituted tetraphenylborate as a receptor, those cationic intermediates could be transferred into the membrane from the aqueous phase to induce a large cationic potential response. Thus, the potentiometric indication of the o-PD oxidation catalyzed by peroxidase or its mimetics can be fulfilled. Horseradish peroxidase has been detected with a detection limit at least two orders of magnitude lower than those obtained by spectrophotometric techniques and traditional membrane-based methods. As an example of peroxidase mimetics, G-quadruplex DNAzymes were probed by the intermediate-sensitive membrane and a label-free thrombin detection protocol was developed based on the catalytic activity of the thrombin-binding G-quadruplex aptamer.
