Abstract
Enhancing enzyme functionality while retaining stability has been a long-standing challenge in chemistry. In this issue of Chem, Tan and co-workers present a strategy for encasing enzymes within DNA nanostructures, effectively addressing this limitation. They demonstrate the broad utility of this approach in catalysis, chemical sensing, and tumor therapy.
