【 摘 要 】

Over the years, nanostructures have been developed to enable to support enzyme usability to obtain highly selective and efficient biocatalysts for catalyzing processes under various conditions. This review summarizes recent developments in the nanostructures for enzyme supporters, typically those formed with various inorganic materials. To improve enzyme attachment, the surface of nanomaterials is properly modified to express specific functional groups. Various materials and nanostructures can be applied to improve both enzyme activity and stability. The merits of the incorporation of enzymes in inorganic nanomaterials and unprecedented opportunities for enhanced enzyme properties are discussed. Finally, the limitations encountered with nanomaterial-based enzyme immobilization are discussed together with the future prospects of such systems.
