Abstract
Catalytic DNA has gained significant attention in recent decades as a highly efficient and tunable catalyst, thanks to its flexible structures, exceptional specificity, and ease of optimization. Despite being composed of just four monomers, DNA's complex conformational intricacies enable a wide range of nuanced functions, including scaffolding, electrocatalysis, enantioselectivity, and mechano-electro spin coupling. DNA catalysts, ranging from traditional DNAzymes to innovative DNAzyme hybrids, highlight the remarkable potential of DNA in catalysis. Recent advancements in spectroscopic techniques have deepened our mechanistic understanding of catalytic DNA, paving the way for rational structural optimization. This review will summarize the latest studies on the performance and optimization of traditional DNAzymes and provide an in-depth analysis of DNAzyme hybrid catalysts and their unique and promising properties.
