Pushing the limits of artificial enzymes

Transforming biomaterials for their futuristic use.

Researchers from CSIR-Central Leather Research Institute (CLRI), supported by INSPIRE Faculty and WISE Kiran Fellowships, explored the chemistry between proteins and nanozymes to advance artificial enzymes. Their work focuses on using manganese-based oxidase nanozyme (MnN) to crosslink collagen, a key structural protein, aiming to develop biomaterials for future medicinal and biomedical applications.
