Directional Regulation of Enzyme Pathways through the Control of Substrate Channeling on a DNA Origami Scaffold

Abstract

Artificial multi‐enzyme systems with precise and dynamic control over the enzyme pathway activity are of great significance in bionanotechnology and synthetic biology. Herein, we exploit a spatially addressable DNA nanoplatform for the directional regulation of two enzyme pathways (G6pDH–MDH and G6pDH–LDH) through the control of NAD+ substrate channeling by specifically shifting NAD+ between the two enzyme pairs. We believe that this concept will be useful for the design of regulatory biological circuits for synthetic biology and biomedicine.
