Recent progress and challenge in the research of chemo-enzymatic transformation

Chemo-enzymatic transformation can give full play to the advantages of chemical synthesis and biosynthesis, respectively, and better meet the demands for efficient synthetic technology to address the issues of health, environment, energy, and security that we face today. The recent progress of chemo-enzymatic transformation has been reviewed in this paper based on the modes of transformations, and the characteristics and advantages of each modes have been discussed. Furthermore, the challenges and prospects in this field have also been discussed.
