Single‐Molecule Encapsulation: A Straightforward Route to Highly Stable and Printable Enzymes

2016 
A mild, fast, and sequence-independent method for controlled enzyme immobilization is presented. This novel approach involves the encapsulation of single-enzyme molecules and the covalent attachment of these nanobiocatalysts onto surfaces. Fast and mild immobilization conditions, combined with low nonspecific adsorption on hydrophobic substrates, enables well-defined surface patterns via microcontact printing. The biohybrid materials show enhanced activity in organic solvents.
