Keywords: 5-aminomethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid; 5-hydroxymethylfurfural; biocatalysis; enzyme catalysis; heterogeneous catalysis; hybrid catalysis; platinum; transaminase EN 5-aminomethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid 5-hydroxymethylfurfural biocatalysis enzyme catalysis heterogeneous catalysis hybrid catalysis platinum transaminase 5 5 1 01/18/21 20210112 NES 210112 B The Cover Feature b shows that hybrid catalysis is a very promising concept that combines chemical catalysts and biocatalysts in one-pot processes. In their Full Paper, A. Lancien et al. report a transaminase coupled to a platinum nanoparticle, both supported on silica, for the efficient conversion of I 5 i -hydroxymethylfurfural into I 5 i -aminomethyl- I 2 i -furancarboxylic acid. 5-aminomethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, biocatalysis, enzyme catalysis, heterogeneous catalysis, hybrid catalysis, platinum, transaminase.
