Nucleobase-Modulated Copper Nanomaterials with Laccase-Like Activity for High-Performance Degradation and Detection of Phenolic Pollutants

Laccases are the most commonly used agents for the treatment of phenolic pollutants. To address the instability and high cost of natural laccases, we investigated nucleobase-modulated copper nanomaterial with laccase-like activity. Various nucleobases, including adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine, were investigated as templates for Cu
