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.

Carbonic Anhydrase Enzyme-MOFs Composite with a Superior Catalytic Performance to Promote CO2 Absorption into Tertiary Amine Solution.

TL;DR: The analyses of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and circular dichroism revealed that the CA enzyme's secondary structure was not significantly varied during the CA/ZIF-L-1 preparation, resulting in a high enzyme activity retention, and can be a good candidate to promote the CO2 capture in industrial application.
