Transformation of Aromatic Feedstocks into Value-Added Products via New-to-Nature Biocatalysis

  • Discuss recent advances in applying enzyme engineering and biocatalysis to enable greener, more sustainable synthetic routes
  • Highlight the potential of engineered biocatalysts for transforming inexpensive chemical feedstocks, including biomass-derived materials, into useful chemical products
  • Showcase how new-to-nature biocatalysis can expand the reactivity of enzymes beyond those found in biology, enabling selective chemical transformations that are difficult to achieve using traditional synthetic methods
