The employment of weak intermolecular interactions in supramolecular chemistry offers an
alternative approach to project artificial chemical environments like the active sites of …

Since the trailblazing discoveries of Lehn, Cram and Pedersen, supramolecular chemistry
has established itself as a cornerstone of organic chemistry. Supramolecular hosts offer …

Recently, an editorial in ACS Catalysis entitled 'nano-apples and orange-zymes' questioned
whether or not the term “nanozyme” was appropriate [1]. When a new term in science is …

The development of advanced materials based on well‐defined polymeric architectures is

The structural arrangement of amino acid residues in native enzymes underlies their
remarkable catalytic properties, thus providing a notable point of reference for designing …

The urge to meet the ever-growing needs of sensing technology has spurred research to
look for new alternatives to traditional analytical methods. In this scenario, the glucometer is …

Lipopeptides are amphiphilic peptides in which an aliphatic chain is attached to either the C
or N terminus of peptides. Their self-assembly—into micelles, vesicles, nanotubes, fibres or …

Enzymes achieve high catalytic activity with their elaborate arrangements of amino acid
residues in confined optimized spaces. Nevertheless, when exposed to complicated …

Enzymes are highly evolved catalysts that perform their tasks with high efficiency. 1 Hence,
they may constitute a very attractive reference in the development of a synthetic catalyst. The …

Photoswitchable catalysis is a young but rapidly evolving field that offers great potential for
non-invasive dynamic control of both activity and selectivity in catalysis. Within this context …
