The team of Dunming ZHU has engineered a carbonyl reductase from Sporobolomyces salmonicolor to reduce several ß-amino ketones such as 3-(dimethylamino)-1-(2-thienyl)-propan-1-one, an important intermediate in antidepressant drugs, with over 90 % ee tot he R- or...
The bioengineering company located in Yucheng, Shandong Province, is a leading enterprise for the production of functional sugars and polysaccharides. These are produced from plants as well as through enzyme and fermentation technology. Through cooperation with...
As shown by Zhihe ZHANG, Director of the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding by 16S rRNA analysis of 121 fecal samples of 45 giant pandas throughout one year, the animals digest on average 12,5 kg of bamboo leaves and stems per day but have an extremely low...
Researcher around Yuanye MA developed a novel apparatus designed to train water-deprived mice to detect odors using a go no-go system. With 1 % n-butanol as a test compound, 58 out of 59 mice delivered correct signals in real-time through a touch sensor. With 0.1 %...
The researchers around Dunming ZHU designed variants of l-erythro-3,5-diaminohexanoate dehydrogenase from Candidatus Cloacamonas acidaminovorans (3,5-DAHDHcca) and uses β-keto acids, which were generated from β-keto-nitriles or β-keto-esters using nitrilase or lipase....
