2. Rational redesign of Candida antarctica lipase B
Abstract : This thesis describes the use of rational redesign to modify the properties of the enzyme Candida antarctica lipase B. Through carefully selected single-point mutations, we were able to introduce substrate-assisted catalysis and to alter the reaction specificity. READ MORE

3. Engineering Candida antarctica Lipase A for Enantioselective Transformations in Organic Synthesis : Design, Immobilization and Organic Solvent Screening of Smart Enzyme Libraries
Abstract : The use of enzymes as catalysts in organic synthesis constitutes an attractive alternative to conventional chemical catalysis. Enzymes are non-toxic and biodegradable and they can operate under mild reaction conditions. READ MORE

4. Enthalpy and Entropy in Enzyme Catalysis : A Study of Lipase Enantioselectivity
Abstract : Biocatalysis has become a popular technique in organic synthesis due to high activity and selectivity of enzyme catalyzed reactions. Enantioselectivity is a particularly attractive enzyme property, which is utilized for the production of enantiopure substances. READ MORE

5. Engineering of Candida antarctica Lipase A and B
Abstract : In organic chemistry, it is often desirable to have an efficient process yieldingpure product and not too much waste. When applicable, it is also desirable tohave a high enantioselective outcome. Enzymes are often displaying high regio-,chemo- and stereoselectivity. READ MORE
