Strain engineering is promising for improving catalytic capability of biocatalysts, but it is challenging to modify the atomic-scale strain for specific enzyme-like reactions. Here, the authors report the biocatalysts with atomically-resolved Pt clusters laminated on PdAu nanocrystals and show that the tensile strains contribute to the enzyme-like activities greater than that of natural enzymes.
