Center of Biocatalysis and Biotransformations

Project Aims

Development and optimization of new biocatalysts (dehalogenases, esterases, nitrilases, amidases, glycosidases and other selected enzymes)
Study of biocatalysis mechanisms and molecular structure of these enzymes
Development and implementation of the methods for structure study and function of enzyme and its optimization

Members

Time schedule of the project

implementation of controlled enzyme evolution (2006)
software development (2007)
implementation of recombinant DNA techniques (2008)
study of ES complexes (2009)
preparation of hydrolases library (2009)
preparation of glycosidases library (2009)
organization of scientific and education meetings (2010)

The education of both undergraduate and graduate students will be crucial, along with the organization of seminars, workshops, scientific symposiums and development of external relations (mainly by joining international projects).
