Multi-enzyme cascade reactions are indispensable in biotechnology and many industrial (bio)chemical processes. However, most natural enzymes have poor stability and reusability, and tend to inactivate in toxic media or high temperature, which significantly limit their broader applications. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising candidates for enzymes immobilization to produce nanocomposite structures that not only could shield the enzymes from harsh environments, but also facilitate selective diffusion of substrates and intermediates to the reactive site via their tailorable and ordered pore network. Multi-enzyme cascade reactions in MOFs have recently attracted considerable attention. This Personal Account discusses the different strategies for multi-enzyme-MOF interfaces and their cutting-edge applications from biosensing and catalytic nanomedicine to artificial/hybrid cells. At last, we provide a critical evaluation and future prospects to outline future research directions.

The controlled assembly of nanomaterials into desired architectures presents many opportunities; however, current preparations lack spatial precision and versatility in developing complex nano-architectures. Inspired by the amphiphilic nature of surfactants, we develop a facile approach to guide nanomaterial integration – spatial organization and distribution – in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Named surfactant tunable spatial architecture (STAR), the technology leverages the varied interactions of surfactants with nanoparticles and MOF constituents, respectively, to direct nanoparticle arrangement while molding the growing framework. By surfactant matching, the approach achieves not only tunable and precise integration of diverse nanomaterials in different MOF structures, but also fast and aqueous synthesis, in solution and on solid substrates. Employing the approach, we develop a dual-probe STAR that comprises peripheral working probes and central reference probes to achieve differential responsiveness to biomarkers. When applied for the direct profiling of clinical ascites, STAR reveals glycosylation signatures of extracellular vesicles and differentiates cancer patient prognosis.

lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have proven an unprecedented success in portable electronics, electric vehicles, grid storage, etc., which make a great difference in our lives. Hence, the 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to John B. Goodenough, M. Stanley Whittingham, and Akira Yoshino for their revolutionary work in the field of LIBs. [1] The current LIBs technology is based on insertion-compound anode and cathode materials. As shown in Figure 1, the capacities of the insertion-oxide cathodes have reached the limit of ≈250 mAh g −1 , and that of the graphite anode is also limited to ≈370 mAh g −1 . However, the limited capacities are unable to satisfy the ever-growing need for gravimetric and volumetric energy density. It is required topic to develop next generation energy technology. Targeting the goal, researchers have their sights set on alternative electrode materials. On the anode side, based on conversion reactions while accommodating more ions and electrons are becoming promising options. [2] Approaching mature silicon/ carbon anode elevates anode capacity well. [3] And lithium metal anode are also booming. [4] On the cathode side, multi-electron conversion reaction represented by sulfur and oxygen electrode can offer capacities exceed that of conventional insertion cathodes, such as, LiCoO 2 and LiMn 2 O 4 , by an order of magnitude (>1500 mAh g −1 ). Since 2009, lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have received increasing attention and are considered as one of the most promising candidates for next-generation rechargeable batteries after the development of high-performance Li-S batteries by CMK-3 as host. [5] Sulfur, as one of the most abundant elements on earth, is an electrochemically active material that can accept two electrons per atom at ≈2.1 V (vs. Li + /Li). [6] As a result, sulfur cathode materials have high theoretical capacity of 1675 mAh g −1 , and Li-S batteries have theoretical energy density of ≈2600 Wh kg −1 . [7] However, the issues including low conductivity of S and Li 2 S, shuttle effect, large volumetric expansion, and unstable lithium metal anode have to face. [8] Up to now, intensive efforts in component regulation and structure engineering electrode materials have been focused on solving these issues.Sulfur cathodes with high sulfur content (>90 wt%), [9] excellent cycling life (>3000 cycles), [10] as well as, high operating Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, with high theoretical energy density, promise to be the optimal candidate of next-generation energy-storage. Rapid development in materials has made a major step forward in Li-S batteries. However, a big gap in cycle life and efficiency for practical applications still remains. Reasonable design of materials/electrodes a is significant aspect that must be addressed. The rising metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a new class of crystalline porous organic-inorganic hybrid materials. Abundant inorganic nodes and designable organic linkers allow tailored pore chemistry at a molecular-scale, which enables tunable interaction w...
