Abstract Nature elegantly invokes transition metal ions in a number of fundamental biomolecular processes from guiding protein folding and scaffolding tertiary structures to essential roles in information transmission through ligand binding, electron transfer, and catalysis. Often inspired by such natural systems, innovative transition metal-modified receptors are beginning to emerge with similar functions that hold substantial promise as components of next generation biosensors. This chapter aims to highlight some recent advances in the development of transition metalmodified synthetic receptors. Specifically, systems that incorporate organometallic, monometallic, and supramolecular coordination complexes are reviewed. The text will cover transition metal scaffolded peptide receptors, allosteric supramolecular enzyme mimics, and integrated monolayer-based electroactive receptor systems.
