We report a molecularly tuned catalyst that can accommodate both a substrate and a signal molecule. The binding of the signal molecule helps to direct the reactive group of the substrate to the catalytic group and enhances the catalytic activity. Subtle structural changes in either the substrate or the signal molecule can be readily detected. The switching mechanism also allows the catalytic reaction to be reversibly turned on and off by specific molecular signals.
Some enzymes switch between an open form and a closedform. Wereport a molecularly tuned catalyst that accommodates a substrateand a signal molecule simultaneously.
