1. Metaproteogenomics-guided enzyme discovery : Targeted identification of novel proteases in microbial communities
Abstract : Industrial biotechnology is a large and growing industry as it is part of establishing a “greener” and more sustainable bioeconomy-based society. Using enzymes as biocatalysts is a viable alternative to chemicals and energy intense industrial processes and is en route to a more sustainable industry. READ MORE

2. A long journey from bioanode to biocathode
Abstract : Better utilization of renewable sources of energy and recovery of resources from waste streams are important challenges for researchers. Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are new technologies which e.g. could be used to produce green energy from waste sources or store renewable electricity as chemical fuels. READ MORE

3. Microbial Synthetic Biology, Systems Metabolic Engineering and Enzyme Engineering for Advanced Microbial Biodiesel Production with Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Abstract : The continuous requirement of transportation biofuels has brought the necessity to establish alternatives permitting low-cost production of biodiesel while being environmentally friendly. Biodiesel production was achieved utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae by employing respective enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) based on fatty acyl-CoA molecules and ethanol.

4. Adaptations and constraints associated with autotrophy in microbial metabolism
Abstract : Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities are driving climate change, but the pending crisis could be mitigated by a circular carbon economy where released CO2 is recycled into commodity chemicals. Autotrophic microbes can make a contribution by producing chemicals, such as biofuels, from CO2 and renewable energy. READ MORE

5. Experimental and computational exploration of enzyme sequence space
Abstract : Millions of enzymes with desirable features or new exciting activities can be found in organisms occupying diverse niches all around the earth. However, enzyme studies tend to be biased towards characterisation of representatives from eukaryotes, model organisms, or disease-causing bacteria. READ MORE
