As a typical green bio-manufacturing technology, the enzyme-photo-coupled catalytic system (EPCSs) combines the natural enzyme with a library of semiconductor photocatalysts, holding great promise in clean energy conversion and bulk chemical synthesis. However, the efficiency of EPCSs strongly relies on the shuttling of energy-carrying molecules, e.g., NAD+/NADH cofactor, between active centers of the enzyme and the photocatalyst. Herein, the authors propose a strategy of constructing a thylakoid membrane-inspired capsule with fortified NAD+/NADH shuttling to boost the enzyme-photo-coupled catalytic process.
