    Sammanfattning : Enzymes as biological catalysts are immobilized in porous materials to improve the enzyme activity and simplify their purification from the reaction media in biocatalytic applications. Mesoporous silica (MPS) particles are used as a promising support material for the immobilization of enzymes. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Engineering Candida antarctica Lipase A for Enantioselective Transformations in Organic Synthesis : Design, Immobilization and Organic Solvent Screening of Smart Enzyme Libraries

    Författare :Ylva Wikmark; Jan-Erling Bäckvall; Romas Kazlauskas; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Candida antarctica Lipase A; protein engineering; enzyme libraries; enzyme immobilization; biocatalysis; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Combinatorial protein engineering applied to enzyme catalysis and molecular recognition

    Författare :Malin Eklund; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :phage display; selection; enzyme; affinity domains; crystal structure; affibody; lipase; protein engineering; protein A; assembly;

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
