Enzyme molecular engineering and catalysis
Objectives
Discovery, improvement and rational exploitation of high performance enzymatic biocatalysts based upon structure-function analysis.
|
Efficient synthesis of novel products:
Integrated use of microbiology, metagenomics and data mining coupled to molecular biology and 3D modelling
Rational enzyme engineering and directed molecular evolution
Molecular modelling and computational design of proteins / redesign enzyme specificity and activity for non native substrates and non existing reactions |
Technological expertise:
in production, enzyme stability and immobilisation in both batch and continuous reactors
