Abstract
We demonstrated that the activity gap between metal-organic frameworks (Fe) and horseradish peroxidase could be bridged by simulating the binding-pocket structure and adding active centers. This customized structure promoted the activation and enrichment of substrates, and addition of gold nanoparticles led to activity superposition and synergistic enhancement.
