Background

Designed enzymatic biomaterials (DEB) have emerged as a promising field in biomaterials science and engineering. DEB refers to the creation and development of tailored biomaterials using enzymes as key building blocks. Enzymes, with their remarkable catalytic properties, offer unique advantages for the design and fabrication of biomaterials with enhanced functionality and specificity. DEB aims to harness the power of enzymes by incorporating them into matrices or scaffolds, allowing for controlled enzymatic reactions within a predefined system. These biomaterials can mimic the complexity and functionality of natural tissues, enabling various applications in tissue engineering, drug delivery, biosensing, and diagnostics.

The design of DEB involves the selection of suitable enzymes, understanding their mechanisms, and integrating them into biomaterial matrices using innovative strategies. The resulting biomaterials possess tunable properties, such as selectivity, stability, and responsiveness, paving the way for advanced biomedical applications. The field of DEB holds great potential to revolutionize the design and fabrication of biomaterials, contributing to the development of next-generation biomedical devices and therapies that offer enhanced performance and precision.
