Abstract:Heterogeneous chemoenzymatic catalysts differing in their spatial organization and relative orientation of their enzymatic laccase and Pd units confined into macrocellular silica foams were tested on veratryl alcohol oxidation. When operating under continuous flow, we show that the catalytic efficiency of hybrids is significantly enhanced when the Pd(II) complex is combined with a laccase exhibiting a surface located lysine next to the T1 oxidation site of the enzyme.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
