Nature chooses enzymes to catalyze the generation of wide range of molecules from ambient gases to natural products to biopolymers, mostly in water at room temperature. That is the chemistry of life. Historically the process of enzyme discovery is slow, tedious and extremely time-consuming. Recent technological breakthrough in genome sequencing and recombinant protein expression has drastically shortened the cycle of enzyme development. As a result, enzymes are found to have broad industrial applications for chemistry synthesis, pharmaceuticals development, diagnostics, biofuel production, food processing, paper treatment, and cosmetics. Through understanding existing enzyme circuits and reintegrating metabolic pathways, synthetic biology is becoming an emerging technology behind the green chemistry and sustainability momentum. EnzySource is dedicated to accelerate the applications of enzymes by providing cost-effective and high-quality services along the enzyme value chain by exploring biodiversity in Asia-Pacific region. |
