On the dot. Peroxidase enzymes, which play a key role in numerous applications in biocatalysis and bioanalytics, were reversibly switched on and off by photoirradiation in the presence of CdS quantum dots (QDs). Four different peroxidases were successfully activated by using this QD-irradiation methodology. These light switchable catalysts could prove useful in biosensing, biocatalysis, and design of novel cellular assay procedures.
