Cytochrome P450 enzyme functionalized-quantum dots as photocatalysts for drug metabolism†
Abstract
On the basis of the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) from CdTe quantum dots (QDs) to cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9), a light-controlled drug metabolism system was successfully designed by using CYP2C9 functionalized-CdTe QDs as photocatalysts.
