Enzyan Biocatalysis GmbH

Enzyan Biocatalysis aims to provide industrial partners the tools for the implementation of green and more economic biomanufacturing processes for (fine) chemicals/pharmaceuticals. This is achieved by the identification, development, and optimization of potentially more efficient and sustainable synthetic routes. We use a broad set of tools to test the production of biocatalysts in Escherichia coli and characterize enzymes in view of their biocatalytic properties. We design biocatalytic routes and enzymatic cascades and identify the optimal process parameters by combining a highly automated and integrated wet-lab infrastructure, professional personnel, and cutting-edge computational tools. The expertise in solving challenging problems at the interface of synthetic chemistry and enzymatic transformations is considered the core strength of the company.
