Nanoparticle support for enzymes

Abstract:
Gold nanoparticles can stabilise enzymes at air–water interfaces, enhancing their applications as biocatalysts. Vincent Rotello and colleagues at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, US, used nano-sized particles as scaffolds to support and stabilise the enzyme chymotrypsin.
