Protein Engineering
DIREVO offers rapid, multiparameter improvement of a wide range of enzymes. Multiparameter means that we can improve different properties such as specificity, activity and stability simultaneously.
Examples of optimization targets for enzymes:
- Thermostability
- Temperature optimum
- pH optimum and range
- Selectivity, Specificity
- Resistance against oxidation, inhibitors, detergents, solvents, etc.
- Storage and Shelf life
DIREVO's best in class protein engineering platform has already yielded several industrial enzymes, such as phytases, mannanases, cellulases and several proteases. A phytase has already reached the market as part of a Genencor/Danisco product.
