Abstract

Prototypes of biosystems provide good blueprints for the design and creation of biomimetic systems. However, mimicking both the sophisticated natural structures and their complex biological functions still remains a great challenge. Herein, chloroplast mimics have been fabricated by one‐step bioinspired amino acid mineralization and simultaneous integration of catalytically active units. Hierarchically structured crystals were obtained by the metal‐ion‐directed self‐assembly of cystine (the oxidized dimer of the amino acid cysteine), with a porous structure and stacks of nanorods, which show similar architectural principles to chloroplasts. Porphyrins and enzymes can both be encapsulated inside the crystal during mineralization, rendering the crystal photocatalytically and enzymatically active for an efficient and sustainable synthesis of hydrogen and acetaldehyde in a coupled photoenzymatic reaction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
