Abstract
Performing a heterogeneous catalysis with proteins is still a challenge. Herein, we demonstrate the importance of cross-linked crystals for sulfoxide oxidation by an artificial enzyme. The biohybrid consists of the insertion of an iron complex into a NikA protein crystal. The heterogeneous catalysts displays a better efficiency-with higher reaction kinetics, a better stability and expand the substrate scope compared to its solution counterpart. Designing crystalline artificial enzymes represents a good alternative to soluble or supported enzymes for the future of synthetic biology.
