生物电子学是一个快速发展的跨学科研究领域,旨在将生物分子和电子元件集成到功能系统中 (1,2)。生物分子为此类设备提供了独特的构建模块。控制蛋白质和 DNA 等生物分子的形状和结构的能力,以及生物材料的进化优化化学功能(包括结合、催化、离子泵和自组装),使生物分子成为功能器件有吸引力的构建模块。通过将生物分子与电子元件(例如电极或晶体管)集成而形成的混合系统能够实现生物分子功能的电子读出检测、生物催化过程转化为电能以及纳米电路的模板化。生物电子系统的未来应用可能包括计算设备和假肢装置。本文涵盖了生物电子学新领域的许多方面。
Bioelectronics is a rapidly progressing interdisciplinary research field that aims to integrate biomolecules and electronic elements into functional systems (1,2). Biomolecules offer unique building blocks for such devices. The ability to control the shape and structure of biomolecules, such as proteins and DNA, and the evolution-optimized chemical functions of biomaterials including binding, catalysis, ion-pumping and self-assembly, make biomolecules attractive building blocks for functional devices. Hybrid systems formed by the integration of biomolecules with electronic elements, such as electrodes, or transistors enable the electronic read-out detection of biomolecular functions, the transformation of biocatalyzed processes into electrical power, and the templating of nanosized circuitry. Future applications of bioelectronic systems may include computation devices and prosthetic units. This article covers many aspects of the new field of bioelectronics.
