Design and Engineering of Metal Catalysts for Bio-orthogonal Catalysis in Living Systems

Abstract: In the past two decades, bio-orthogonal transformations mediated by biocompatible metal catalysts in living systems have shown enormous potential in both synthetic biology and medicinal chemistry. These metal-mediated bio-orthogonal reactions, many of which could not be accomplished by natural enzymes, have created more possibilities in organic chemistry and biological sciences. Despite all of the challenges for making those abiotic catalysts work in complicated biological environments, many catalytic systems … Show more

“…Intracellular catalysis has received increasing attention in recent years, as it provides a facile and efficient approach to directly governing biochemical processes or to generating molecules of interest in cells. [1][2][3] To obtain enhanced functions and to achieve usefulness for catalysis in cells, it would be desirable to expand the scope of "catalyzable" reactions using these intracellular catalysts, so that more abiotic transformations could be realized. However, most metal complexes with catalytic properties show decreased activity or even complete deactivation under biologically relevant conditions because of the poisoning of coordinating biomolecules in such environments.…”

“…Biological life is metal-dependent, and multiple metal ions, e.g., zinc, iron, copper, and manganese, participate in numerous biological processes, including photosynthesis and oxygen transport. , By coordinating enzyme cofactors (e.g., vitamin B12 or heme) or proteins directly (e.g., metalloproteases and zinc finger proteins), they serve as key structural elements or catalytic centers to mediate electron transport and bond formation. By understanding and discovering specific interactions and functions of metals in living systems, efficient abiotic reactions and artificial processes may be designed and produced . The coordination geometry and valence of metal ions to their ligands are pivotal for their functions.…”
