The emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is recognized as a significant driver for
climate change. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) techniques are efficient and effective …

In the context of the new development of “carbon peak and carbon neutrality” in the world,
the development of carbon capture technology is particularly important. Carbonic anhydrase …

Eighteen novel compounds harboring the privileged thienopyrimidine scaffold (5a-q, and
6a), were designed based on molecular hybridization strategy. These compounds were …

Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is an enzyme with unparallele d catalytic activity in CO2 hydration.
However, its high cost and low stability seriously restrict its industrial application in CO2 …

CO2 conversion by stable, cost-effective carbonic anhydrase (CA)-like nanozymes emerges
as an efficient and sustainable approach for CO2 fixation. In this work, a novel iron-based …

Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is a zinc-containing metalloprotein, in which the Zn active center
plays the key role to transform CO2 into carbonate. Inspired by nature, herein we used metal …

The first part of the review summarizes more than three decades of research on cyclen
complexes, with a particular focus on complexes that exhibit hydrolytic (or transesterification) …

Zinc (II) cyclen, a small molecule mimic of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, was evaluated
under rigorous conditions resembling those in an industrial carbon capture process: high pH …

Nanocomposite membranes promoted by mimic enzyme was developed and optimized for
biogas upgrading at moderately high pressure applications up to 15 bar. Zn based mimic …

Protein design will ultimately allow for the creation of artificial enzymes with novel functions
and unprecedented stability. To test our current mastery of nature's approach to catalysis, a …
