Abstract

The Front Cover shows the interaction of myoglobin protein, represented by a bee, with Zr-MOF-808, represented by the honeycomb structure. In nature the relation between a bee and a honeycomb is a favorable interaction, and the same can be said for the interaction between myoglobin and MOF-808. The protein is readily adsorbed on the MOF, which results in hydrolysis of the protein, but also some loss of substrate occurs due to adsorption onto the MOF. When surfactants (a second insect) are introduced, the protein-MOF interactions are affected, resulting in changes to protein hydrolysis patterns and adsorption. This study investigates the protein-MOF-surfactant triangle to determine how the character of the surfactant alters this relationship and affects the subsequent hydrolysis. We wish to thank David Salazar Marcano for the design. More information can be found in the Research Article by T. N. Parac-Vogt and co-workers.
