Lipase and esterase selectivity engineering methods.Common questions about our enzyme specificity engineering services.
Yes. We have successfully switched enzyme specificity to accept entirely non-natural substrates across multiple enzyme classes including hydrolases, oxidoreductases, and transferases. Our AI models predict mutations that reshape binding pockets for new substrate recognition while maintaining catalytic geometry.
We routinely achieve high enantiomeric excess (ee) levels for ketoreductases, lipases, epoxide hydrolases, and transaminases. Enginoma combines pocket chirality analysis with directed evolution to optimize stereoselectivity beyond wild-type levels.
Regioselectivity engineering involves modifying access tunnels and binding orientation residues. We use molecular dynamics simulation to predict substrate positioning and validate results through LC-MS/MS product analysis.
Yes. Our AI models predict activity-selectivity tradeoffs using multi-objective optimization. We design mutations that achieve target selectivity while maintaining catalytic efficiency above threshold levels of wild-type enzyme.
Yes. We test engineered variants against your real substrate panel, not just model compounds. This ensures the engineered enzymes perform under conditions relevant to your actual manufacturing or research process.
