Abstract

The fields of bio-organic and bio-inorganic chemistry serve as a link between the complex differences between organic and inorganic molecules in the context of living systems. This review article offers a thorough investigation of how these domains have converged, highlighting their unique significance and revealing how they work together to improve our understanding of intricate biological processes. This paper presents a comprehensive viewpoint on the dynamic and changing environment where bio-organic and bio-inorganic chemistry interact through a thorough review of current developments, novel techniques, emerging trends.


Bio-organic chemistry has revealed the secrets of protein-ligand interactions and enzymatic catalysis as the study of chemical reactions involving organic molecules. To examine molecular recognition and the complex mechanisms regulating enzyme activity, this field has made use of cutting-edge computational modelling and structural biology tools. The fundamental functions that metal ions play in biological systems have also been explored in depth by bio-inorganic chemistry, highlighting the critical importance of metalloproteins and biomineralization processes.


At the intersection of metalloenzymes, where organic and inorganic materials combine to form molecular machinery of unmatched complexity and functionality, the review highlights the deep synergy between bio-organic and bio-inorganic chemistry. We investigate the combination of computational models and experimental methods, prospective biomedical applications resulting from metal-based treatments, the advent of bio-inspired catalysis for sustainable transformations with an eye towards the future.


In conclusion, the interaction between bio-organic and bio-inorganic chemistry fosters interdisciplinary creativity while also enhancing our understanding of the complexities of life. These domains have the potential to change our understanding of biological systems and open up fresh approaches to solving urgent global problems as they continue to interact.
