报告简介:

Photosensitizers, which harness light energy to upgrade weak reductants to strong reductants, are pivotal components of the natural and artificial photosynthesis machineries. However, it has proved difficult to enhance and expand their functions through genetic engineering. Here we report a genetically encoded, 27 kD photosensitizer protein (PSP), which facilitates the rational design of miniature photocatalytic CO2 reducing enzymes. Visible light drives PSP efficiently into a long-lived triplet excited state (PSP*), which reacts rapidly with NADH to generate a super-reducing radical (PSP•), which is strong enough to reduce many CO­2 reducing catalysts. We determined the 3D structure of PSP• at 1.8 Å resolution by X-ray crystallography. Genetic engineering enabled the site-specific attachment of a nickel-terpyridine complex, and modular optimization of the photochemical properties of PSP, chromophore/catalytic center distance and catalytic center microenvironment, culminating in a miniature photocatalytic CO2 reducing enzyme which has a CO2/CO conversion quantum efficiency of 2.6%.
