Abstract

Biocatalysis refers to the utilization of enzymes, either in purified form, or existed as part of crude cell lysate or intact cells, to catalyze single- or multi-step chemical reactions, converting synthetic molecules or natural metabolites into high-value products [...]

Summary

Introduction

Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. The Special Issue Recent Advances in Biocatalysis and Metabolic Engineering presents twelve original research and review articles involving triterpenoid synthesis and catalysis, β-glucan and lignin hydrolysis, nanomaterials, enzyme immobilization and fluorescencebased characterization, in vitro peptide/protein phosphorylation, and enzymatic dye decoloring, along with novel practices relating to enzymes using synthetic biology and metabolic engineering. The published articles demonstrate experimental and simulated data which can be applied in pharmaceuticals, diagnosis, functional foods, materials and biofuel production.
