Synthesis and Characterization of Rubisco-Magnesium Complexes for Potential Gas Adsorption Applications.

ABSTRACT: Enzyme-based complexes represent an emerging class of functional adsorbents combining specificity and environmentally friendly potential. We proposed the development of metal-enzyme-based complexes that leverage the unique properties of magnesium metal to increase enzyme-structure integration for the formation of hybrid porous matrices with the potential to modulate targeted gas adsorption under mild conditions. For this, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase (RuBisCO), a carboxyl-lyase responsible for carbon fixation in the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle, was used as a scaffold that supported stable coordination of its amino acids, water, and/or phosphate groups with magnesium ions. Time- and dose-dependent synthesis and characterization of the resulting metal-enzyme complexes, per
