1. Rational engineering of esterases for improved amidase specificity in amide synthesis and hydrolysis
Abstract : Biocatalysis is an ever evolving field that uses enzymes or microorganisms for chemical synthesis. By utilizing enzymes that generally have evolved for specific reactions under mild conditions and temperatures, biocatalysis can be a more environmentally friendly option compared to traditional chemistry.

2. 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

3. The Importance of Being Promiscuous : Understanding enzyme function, specificity, and evolution through structure
Abstract : Enzymes are known to be amazingly specific and efficient catalysts. However, many enzymes also have so-called promiscuous functions, i.e., they are able to catalyze other reactions than their main one. READ MORE

4. Enzymatic synthesis of acrylates. Catalyst properties and development of process and product
Abstract : The increasingly apparent environmental problems in our surroundings necessitate a quest for sustainable development in all areas of human endeavour. Within the field of chemistry and the production of chemicals, the focus is increasingly on the development of green chemistry. READ MORE

5. Combinatorial protein engineering applied to enzyme catalysis and molecular recognition
Abstract : The recent development of methods for constructing andhandling large collections (libraries) of proteins, from whichvariants with desired traits can be isolated, hasrevolutionized the field of protein engineering. Key elementsof such methods are the various ways in which the genotypes(the genes) and the phenotypes (the encoded proteins) arephysically linked during the process. READ MORE
