Pushing the Boundaries of Synthesis through Innovative Biocatalysis

We integrate chemistry, chemical biology, and protein engineering to develop enabling biocatalytic methods that advance chemical synthesis and synthetic biology. 

Unmasking the Reverse Catalytic Activity of 'Ene'-Reductases for Selectve Carbonyl Desaturation
Our research sets the stage for the future development of biocatalytic desaturation systems with reactivity and selectivity unmatched by those of small-molecule catalysts.
