TLDR
It is shown that proteins, enzymes and DNA rapidly induce the formation of protective metal-organic framework coatings under physiological conditions by concentrating the framework building blocks and facilitating crystallization around the biomacromolecules.
Abstract
Robust biomacromolecules could be used for a wide range of biotechnological applications. Here the authors report a biomimetic mineralization process, in which biomolecules are encapsulated within metal-organic frameworks, and their stability is subsequently increased without significant bioactivity loss.

Engineering silk sericin decorated zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 nanoplatform to enhance chemotherapy.

TL;DR: In this article, a pH-responsive nanoplatform based-silk sericin-zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 was designed for the delivery of chemotherapeutic doxorubicin (denoted as ZIF-8@DOX@SS, ZDS), which can overcome the limitation of poor circulation stability and unexpected drug leakage in blood circulation.

Pickering Emulsion-Based Microreactors for Size-Selective Interfacial Enzymatic Catalysis.

TL;DR: This study has developed a mild and effective method to prepare a metal-organic framework (MOF)-based microcapsule by the self-assembly of pre-synthesized zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanoparticles at the oil-water interface combined with deposition of a dense Zif-8 coating outside the capsule.

Self‐Assembly of Oriented Antibody‐Decorated Metal–Organic Framework Nanocrystals for Active‐Targeting Applications

TL;DR: In this article , a one-step synthesis of oriented monoclonal antibody-decorated metal-organic framework (MOF) nanocrystals is presented, where the Fc regions are partially inserted within the MOF surface and the antibody-binding regions protrude from the surface toward the target.
