Biocatalysts, on the other hand, are selective and only produce one product -- but they are also very sensitive. An international research team has developed a hybrid catalysis cascade that makes ...

A platform to engineer enzymes responsible for the formation of amide bonds as an effort toward developing biocatalysts for green chemistry. Amide bonds — a type of chemical bond formed between a ...

[FeFe]-hydrogenases are the most efficient hydrogen (H 2)-producing biocatalysts. However, most of their active centers, where H 2 is produced, are destroyed by oxygen (O 2), making it very ...

Oxygen can destroy hydrogen-producing enzymes. Researchers from Bochum and Osaka have discovered how an extraordinary protein survives in the presence of oxygen. Three years ago, a partial ...

The situation is different with biocatalysts: these natural enzymes catalyze just one reaction and therefore only yield one product. However, they are complicated to handle, very sensitive or ...

Biocatalysts, on the other hand, are selective and only produce one product—but they are also very sensitive. An international research team led by Professor Wolfgang Schuhmann from the Center ...
