Abstract
Enzymes are biomacromolecules with three-dimensional structures composed of peptide polymers via supramolecular interactions. Owing to the incredible catalytic efficiency and unique substrate selectivity, enzymes arouse considerable attention. To rival natural enzymes, various artificial enzymes have been developed over the last decades. Since supramolecular interactions play important roles in both substrate recognition and the process of enzymatic catalysis, designing artificial enzymes using supramolecular strategies is undoubtedly significant. Here we discuss the recent advances in constructing artificial enzymes using supramolecular platforms.
