Dynamic supramolecular assembly was used to construct synthetic hybrid enzymes with a protective dendritic shell. In their Communication on page 324 ff. , T. Weil and co‐workers employ boronic acid/salicyl hydroxamate complexation to endow enzymes with pH‐responsive modulated activity and the capability for efficient membrane translocation and localization. The biomimetic strategy explores a unique class of structurally defined biohybrids as enzyme therapeutics.
