Investigation 3
Using nanomaterials to bridge the gap between Fe-S minerals and highly evolved biological Fe-S metalloenzymes.

• Organic template (protein) mediated cluster assembly – biomineralization.
• Properties of synthetic nanoclusters, both as homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts.
• The impact of size scale on the properties of synthetic iron-sulfur clusters and array.
• Computational modeling of the structure and catalytic properties of synthetic iron-sulfur nanoparticles in the 5-50 nm range.
