Outside Front Cover: Boosting Current Density of Electrocatalytic CO <sub>2</sub> Reduction using Metal‐Enzyme Hybrid Cathodes (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 30/2025)
A hybrid metal-enzyme electrode integrating bovine carbonic anhydrase (bCA) with a metallic catalyst facilitates enhanced CO 2 electroreduction.The bCA dynamically catalyzes the reversible conversion between CO 2 and bicarbonate, enabling local CO 2 regeneration at the catalyst surface.This enzyme-mediated CO 2 supply significantly boosts CO 2 RR current density beyond mass transfer limits, even under flooding conditions, as reported by Jinwoo Lee, Jungbae Kim, Ki Tae Park et al. in their Research Article (e202504380).
