From photodriven charge accumulation to fueling enzyme cascades in molecular factories

Yasunori Okamoto, Thomas R. Ward, Oliver S. Wenger

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In a multi-disciplinary team effort we gather experts on light-to-chemical energy conversion, artificial metalloenzymes, and bio-inspired polymer vesicles in order to construct molecular factories which produce added-value chemicals in an overall process fueled by solar energy. We outline our long-term vision and discuss specific challenges associated with this endeavor.
