Inorganic nitrogen oxide (NOx) species, such as NO, NO2, NO3−, NO2− generated from the
decomposition of organic matters, volcanic eruptions and lightning activated nitrogen, play …

Although known for millennia, it is only recently that mechanochemistry has received serious
attention by chemists. Indeed, during the past 15 years an extraordinary number of reports …

Glycine as one of the most abundant amino acids in human proteins, with extensive
applications in both life and industry, is conventionally synthesized through complex …

Bioelectrocatalytic synthesis is the conversion of electrical energy into value‐added
products using biocatalysts. These methods merge the specificity and selectivity of …

Synthetic biology aims at designing new biological functions from first principles. These new
designs allow to expand the natural solution space and overcome the limitations of naturally …

The electrocatalytic synthesis of C–N coupling compounds from CO2 and nitrogenous
species not only offers an effective avenue to achieve carbon neutrality and reduce …

The advent of modern technologies has inspired biotechnologists to shift towards in vitro
approaches that utilize cell-free environments for the generation of biochemicals and …

Synthetic biology is being increasingly used to establish novel carbon assimilation pathways
and artificial autotrophic strains that can be used in low-carbon biomanufacturing. Currently …

Biomolecules are a category of largely organic matter that covers molecular substances
produced or required by living organisms. While they have great value in applications from …

Cu-based diatomic catalysts have been reported to selectively synthesize urea. However,
problems such as high applied potential (–0.6∼− 1.5 V vs. RHE) and low urea yields are still …
