title: Size-selective biocatalysis of myoglobin immobilized into a mesoporous metal-organic framework with hierarchical pore sizes.
abstract: The protein myoglobin has been successfully immobilized into a mesoporous metal-organic framework with hierarchical pore sizes, which demonstrates interesting size-selective biocatalysis as well as superior catalytic activities toward small substrate oxidation compared to its mesoporous silica material counterpart.
