Biocatalysis and Biotransformations: Enzymatic Synthesis for Biotechnological Applications

Many of the reactions that take place in industry use expensive and highly polluting catalysts that can be replaced by biocatalysts which are as effective and less polluting. The book covers the different types of enzymes that can be used as well as their stabilization through different technologies, their use in non conventional media, protein modification, directed evolution and prediction of enantioselectivity by computational methods.
