What a fantastic day in the Swiss mountains with the CCBIO Team!

Super happy & honored to receive the #biocat2024 award🎉 ! Huge thanks to the organizers & selection committee, my amazing team, and all who’ve supported me along the way. Excited for what’s ahead in our journey to push the boundaries of #biocatalysis🧬🧪🌿! NCCR Catalysis ZHAW

Thanks so much for this recognition!

Accelerating enzyme engineering: In Nature Chemical Biology we show that by removing destabilizing mutations from sequence space we generated a🚀Kemp eliminase in only 5 evolution cycles! Recombination charts the designer enzyme's fitness landscape🏔️. 👉nature.com/articles/s4158… NCCR Catalysis

Congrats🎉 to Lisa Schelbert for winning the Lab Sciences Award 2024 🎖️for her BSc thesis on the fitness landscape 🏔️of engineered Kemp eliminases. Grateful for the privilege of having mentored her and looking forward to seeing what she's up to next! #ProudPI NCCR Catalysis

Interested to apply lactam and cyclic imide hydrolyzing enzymes🌱? In our ACS Catalysis review, we explore the hydrolytic biocatalysts and provide a broad protein database to accelerate enzyme discovery. 🧬🔍 👉pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… 👉github.com/ccbiozhaw/Cycl… NCCR Catalysis

We are really happy to announce that Prof. Paolo Melchiorre Paolo Melchiorre will be the vice-president of the Bürgenstock conference 2025! The program – always kept as a secret – was assembled by Prof. Mascareñas as president and the organising committee, and features outstanding

Excited to share our Highlight in @AngewandteChemie honoring the 2024 #NobelPrize 🏆 to David Baker and Demis Hassabis/John Jumper in which we explore how computational tools are transforming medicine💊, diagnostics🔬 and sustainable manufacturing🌿. 👉doi.org/10.1002/ange.2…

It's this time of the year....🎄🎄🎄 A big thank you 🙏 to the wonderful CCBIO team, past and present, for the truly wonderful collaboration! Happy holidays! ✨

Exciting new chapter ahead: Thrilled to join Universität Bern DCBPunibern as Full Prof of Organic Chemistry in Sept! 🎉 Huge thanks to my amazing team, colleagues & mentors for an incredible #biocatalysis journey. Looking forward to new enzyme adventures🚀! 👉mediarelations.unibe.ch/personalia/202…

#Computational_Analysis reveals a surprise: FAST-#PETase rigidifies at high temps, boosting stability, instead of becoming more flexible. This helps explain FAST-PETase’s thermostability and could help guide the design of temp-tuned enzymes! Curious? 👉doi.org/10.1016/j.csbj…

What a wonderful stay in beautiful Edinburgh to share some of my group's science with the The University of Edinburgh colleagues. Many thanks to Amanda Amanda Jarvis and Dom Campopiano Group for the invitation and making my stay truly memorable! #enzyme_engineering #biocatalysis

#Biotrans2025 is off to a fantastic start! A big thanks to the > 600 #biocatalysis enthusiasts that made their way to Basel. The opening ceremony was made truly special by inspiring lectures from SYBORG and Turner Biocatalysis and beautiful protein tunes by Nora Eifler!

Inspirational morning session at #Biotrans2025 with contributions on NRPS engineering by Bode Lab and new peptide-modifying enzymes by Piel Lab . This was followed by fantastic oral communications by M. Schürmann, G. Xu, V. Willers,KouristLab and K. Steiner.

Super happy that EnzyMS, our LC-MS pipeline for detecting promiscuous #enzyme activity, is out in Chem Catalysis ! Testing it on WelO5* + soraphen A uncovered an oxidative demethylation - missed by standard tools. Curious? 👉 cell.com/chem-catalysis…
