Research Abstract |
Metalloenzymes catalyze variety of reactions including hydroxylation of methane and nitrogen fixation, which are difficult for synthetic catalysts, in mild conditions. Thus, the active site of these metalloenzyme has been attracted the chemists. In this project, the artificial biocatalysts containing non-natural dimetallic active sites were constructed.The first coordination shell of the active site was reengineered and the second coordination shell was redesigned. The structure and function of the resultant artificial biocatalysts were studied.
