Abstract

Polymer/whole-cell hybrid catalysts were created by synthesizing catalytically active polymers from the surface of Escherichia coli cells that recombinantly expressed enzymes. The surface-engineered bacteria allowed for orthogonal tandem catalysis, involving photo- or chemocatalytic steps by the polymers on the cells and biocatalytic steps by the enzymes within the cells.
