Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides an enzyme-powered nanomotor, comprising a particle with a surface, an enzyme, and a heterologous molecule; characterized in that the enzyme and the heterologous molecule are discontinuously attached over the whole surface of the particle. The invention also provides the nanomotor for use in therapy, diagnosis and prognosis, in particular, for the treatment of cancer. Additionally, the invention provides the use of the nanomotor for detecting an analyte in an isolated sample.
