Electrochemically driven drug metabolism via a CYP1A2-UGT1A10 bienzyme confined in a graphene nano-cage

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Nov 21;50(90):13896-9. doi: 10.1039/c4cc06200k.

Abstract

A graphene nano-cage with regulatable space for the assembly of a cytochrome P450 1A2-UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A10 bienzyme complex has been constructed via a click reaction, and successfully used to study drug sequential metabolism using an electrochemically-driven method.
