Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins! Ivana Drienovska and coworkers expanded the horizons of #protein engineering and #biocatalysis by synthesizing several new non-canonical amino acids and incorporating them into proteins.

In the cover we imagined a protein as a composition of blocks (the amino acids) where one has a different color, symbolizing the incorporated unnatural amino-acid.

Pretty comprehensive #biocatalysis effort for large yields of L-ABA! Optimizing plasmids, #proteinengineering, and crystal structures, what more could you want? doi.org/10.1002/cbic.202300148

#introduction

Hi, I'm a biochemist enthusiastic about #enzymes, #biocatalysis and #ProteinEngineering & #ProteinEvolution.

I did my PhD with Florian Hollfelder at the #UniversityofCambridge working on #DirectedEvolution of enzymes using droplet #microfluidics. Currently, I am doing a postdoc at #ETHZurich, studying which properties determine a protein’s innovability towards new function.

Looking forward to learning about cool preprints/papers and finding a lively scientific community here!
