Entrapment of glucose oxidase within gold converts it to a general monosaccharide-oxidase

Abstract We report that entrapping glucose oxidase (GOx) within metallic gold, expands its activity to become an oxidase for monosaccharides that do not have a natural enzyme with that activity—fructose and xylose—and that this entrapment also removes the enantioselectivity, rendering this enzyme ca...
