Abstract

In recent years recombinant enzymes have found widespread application in industrial uses ranging from organic synthesis to food industry. Recombinant proteins, including some enzymes, are nowadays used in the clinic to treat a broad spectrum of diseases. The elucidation of the human genome and current efforts in functional genomics and proteomics will greatly increase the number of therapeutic proteins. This article presents the R&D activities in the biochemistry lab at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences Winterthur, which recently has initiated a focus on recombinant protein expression.
