In hard tissues of vertebrates, calcium phosphate (CaP) biomineralization is a fascinating process that combines specific physicochemical and biochemical reactions, resulting in the formation of extracellular matrices with elegant nanoarchitectures. Although several “biomimetic” strategies have been developed for the design of mineralized nanostructured biointerfaces, the control of the crystallization process remains complex. Herein, we report an innovative approach to overcome this challenge by generating, in situ, CaP precursors in a confined medium. For this purpose, we explore a combination of (i) the layer-by-layer assembly, (ii) the template-based method and (iii) the heterogeneous enzymatic catalysis. We show the possibility of embedding active alkaline phosphatase in a nanostructured multilayered film and inducing the nucleation and growth of CaP compounds under different conditions. Importantly, we …
