Endowing unimolecular soft nanoobjects with biomimetic functions is attracting significant interest in the emerging field of single-chain technology. Inspired by the compartmentalized structure and polymerase activity of metalloenzymes, copper-containing compact nanoglobules have been designed, synthesized, and characterized endowed with metalloenzyme mimicking characteristics toward controlled synthesis of water-soluble polymers and thermoresponsive hydrogels. When compared to metalloenzymes, artificial nanoobjects endowed with metalloenzyme mimicking characteristics offer increased stability against thermal changes and reduced degradability by hydrolytic enzymes.
