With the rapid development of modern industry, coal, petroleum, natural gas and other fossil fuels have been excessively consumed, along with an increasing large quantities of greenhouse gases (e.g. carbon dioxide, CO2) are produced. It is urgent to develop sustainable green energy and abate the detriment of carbon dioxide on global environment. CO2 is a cheap carbon source that can be converted into high value-added chemicals by chemical, photochemical, electrochemical or enzymatic methods to realize the recycling of CO2. It is a win-win strategy to solve the energy and environmental crisis caused by global carbon emissions. Inspired by natural CO2 metabolic process, enzymatic transformation provides an alternative strategy for efficient recycling of CO2. Compared with traditional chemical, photochemical or electrochemical methods, the enzymatic route holds advantages of green, high efficiency, mild and excellent selectivity, which is expected to bring new revolutionary opportunities for efficient utilization of CO2. Thus, in this present review, we firstly introduce the brief background about enzymatic conversion for CO2 capture, sequestration and utilization. Next, we depict six major routes of the CO2 metabolic process in cells, which are taken as the inspiration source for the construction of enzymatic systems in vitro. Subsequently, recent advances in enzymatic conversion of CO2 that catalyzed by various single enzymes and multi-enzyme cascade systems are systematically reviewed. Some emerging approaches for construction of immobilized single-or multi-enzyme systems, directed evolution and artificial modification of enzymes, and cofactor regulation during the enzymatic processes are also discussed. Finally, the defects and shortcomings of enzymatic approaches are summarized, and the future perspectives are finally put forward. Based on this present review, we aim to provide theoretical reference and practical basis for more efficient enzymatic utilization of CO2 to produce high value-added chemicals.
