Exploring the Specificity of Nanozymes
Abstract
Nanozymes, nanomaterials exhibiting enzyme-like activities, have emerged as a prominent interdisciplinary field over the past decade. To date, over 1200 different nanomaterials have been identified as nanozymes, covering four catalytic categories: oxidoreductases, hydrolases, isomerases, and lyases. Catalytic activity and specificity are two pivotal benchmarks for evaluating enzymatic performance. Despite substantial progress being made in quantifying and optimizing the catalytic activity of nanozymes, there is still a lack of in-depth research on the catalytic specificity of nanozymes, preventing the formation of consensual knowledge and impeding a more refined and systematic classification of nanozymes. Recently, debates have emerged regarding whether nanozymes could possess catalytic specificity similar to that of enzymes. This Perspective discusses the specificity of nanozymes by referring to the catalytic specificity of enzymes, highlights the specificity gap between nanozymes and enzymes, and concludes by offering our perspective on future research on the specificity of nanozymes.

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.
