Enzyme immobilization enables the fabrication of flexible
and powerful
biocatalytic systems that can meet the needs of green and efficient
development in various fields. However, restricted electron and mass
transfer during enzymatic reactions and disruption of the enzyme structure
during encapsulation limit the wide application of the immobilized
enzyme systems. Herein, we report an encapsulation strategy based
on hollow-shell-layered double hydroxides (LDHs; ZnCo-LDH) for green
and nondestructive enzyme immobilization. Benefiting from the protective
and enzyme-friendly microenvironment provided by the hydrophilic hollow
structure of ZnCo-LDH, the encapsulated enzyme maintains a nearly
natural enzyme biostructure and enhanced stability. Notably, mesoporous
ZnCo-LDH with excellent electrical properties considerably facilitates
electron and mass transport during enzymatic reactions, exhibiting
5.56 times the catalytic efficiency of free enzymes or traditional
enzyme encapsulation systems. The current study broadens the family
of encapsulated carriers and alleviates the trade-off between enzyme
stability and catalytic activity in the encapsulated state, presenting
a promising avenue for the industrial application of the enzyme.
