Competences
The Division of Biocatalysis works at the interface between chemistry, bio- and engineering sciences. Its research and teaching activities focus on the development and optimization of enzymatic catalysts and biocatalytic processes for industrial applications.
Our competences include methods to identify enzymes (Enzyme Sourcing, Genome Mining), to characterise (Enzyme Purification, Fermentation, Enzyme Kinetics, Protein Crystallisation) and to modify (Machine Learning, Enzyme Engineering), as well as to optimise biocatalysts for a specific application (Biocatalytic Reactions, Enzyme Cascades, Enzyme Immobilisation).
