Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD<sup>+</sup>) is a key redox compound in all living cells responsible for energy transduction, genomic integrity, life-span extension, and neuromodulation. Here, we report a new function of NAD<sup>+</sup> as a molecular photocatalyst in addition to the biological roles. Our spectroscopic and...

In green plants, solar-powered electrons are transferred through sophistically arranged photosystems and are subsequently channelled into the Calvin cycle to generate chemical energy. Inspired by the natural photosynthetic scheme, a photoelectrochemical cell (PEC) is constructed configured with protonated graphitic carbon nitride (p-g-C<sub>3...

A photoenzymatic NADH regeneration system was established. The combination of deazariboflavin as a photocatalyst with putidaredoxin reductase enabled the selective reduction of NAD<sup>+</sup> into the enzyme-active 1,4-NADH to promote an alcohol dehydrogenase catalysed stereospecific reduction reaction. The catalytic turnover of all the...

Light-driven activation of redox enzymes is an emerging route for sustainable chemical synthesis. Among redox enzymes, the family of Old Yellow Enzyme (OYE) dependent on the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide cofactor (NADH) catalyzes the stereoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated hydrocarbons. Here, we report OYE-catalyzed asymmetric...

The use of neat reaction media, that is the avoidance of additional solvents, is the simplest and the most efficient approach to follow in biocatalysis. Here, we show that unspecific peroxygenase from Agrocybe aegerita (AaeUPO) can hydroxylate the neat model substrate cyclohexane. H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> was photocatalytically generated in...

Peroxygenases have long inspired the selective oxyfunctionalization of various aliphatic and aromatic compounds, because of their broad substrate spectrum and simplicity of catalytic mechanism. This study provides a proof-of-concept of piezobiocatalysis by demonstrating peroxygenase-catalyzed oxyfunctionalization reactions fueled by...

The pulp and paper manufacturers generate approximately 50 million metric tons of lignin per annum, most of which has been abandoned or incinerated because of lignin's recalcitrant nature. Here, we report bias-free photoelectrochemical (PEC) oxidation of lignin coupled with asymmetric hydrogenation of C=C bonds. The PEC platform consists of a...

Inspired by natural photosynthesis, biocatalytic photoelectrochemical (PEC) platforms are gaining prominence for the conversion of solar energy into useful chemicals by combining redox biocatalysis and photoelectrocatalysis. Herein, we report a dual biocatalytic PEC platform consisting of a molybdenum (Mo)-doped BiVO<sub>4</sub> (Mo:BiVO<sub...

Solar-driven N<sub>2</sub> fixation offers a green alternative to the highly energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process that releases more than 300 million metric tons of CO<sub>2</sub> annually to form NH<sub>3</sub>. However, N<sub>2</sub>-reducing photoelectrochemical (PEC) studies have not elucidated how an oxidation reaction affects the N<sub...

Enzymes are the catalyst of choice for highly selective reactions, offering nature-inspired approaches for sustainable chemical synthesis. Oxidative enzymes (e.g., monooxygenases, peroxygenases, oxidases, or dehydrogenases) catalyze a variety of enantioselective oxyfunctionalization and dehydrogenation reactions under mild conditions. To...
