大自然赐予我们许多礼物，其中无数的生物分子具有桥连金属离子的能力，发挥着重要的生物功能。利用金属离子与生物分子之间的特异性相互作用，以天然生物分子为构建单元，取代合成有机分子，构建纳米级生物配位聚合物。最新的进展进行了总结，并讨论了未来的挑战。可以预见，纳米级生物配位聚合物将成为一种多样化和快速增长的新型材料，并可能导致生物应用的突破。
Nature bestows many gifts upon us, among which countless biomolecules have the ability to bridge metal ions and exert the important function in biology. By taking advantage of specific interactions between metal ions and biomolecules, this article highlights a novel concept for construction of nanoscale biocoordination polymers through replacement of synthetic organic molecules with natural biomolecules as building blocks. The most recent advances are summarized and future challenges are discussed. It can be anticipated that nanoscale biocoordination polymers will become a diverse and rapidly growing class of novel materials and potentially lead to a breakthrough in biological applications.
