Enhanced light-driven catalytic performance of cytochrome P450 confined in macroporous silica†
Abstract
A light-driven approach combined with a macroporous reactor for the enzymatic biocatalytic reaction has been developed by confining the enzyme/photosensitizer nanohybrids in a macroporous material, which exhibits high bio-conversion efficiency due to the fast diffusion and collision between the enzyme/photosensitizer nanohybrid and the substrate in the reactor.
