title: A proton channel allows a hydrogen oxidation catalyst to operate at a moderate overpotential with water acting as a base.
abstract: We report the incorporation of a simple enzyme-inspired proton channel onto a hydrogen oxidation catalyst. This modification facilitates proton transfer and lowers the overpotential for oxidation of H2 by 300 mV when using water as a base.
