Enzymatic Functions for Novel Technologies—from Synthetic to Medicinal Uses
This special issue belongs to the section “Biocatalysis“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is concerned with biocatalytic processes with enzymes, proteins, and cells; these represent novel approaches for the application of enzymatic functions. The scope of this Issue includes applications such as selective biocatalytic synthesis, analysis, as well as natural and unnatural biotransformations related to the field of preparative chemistry, bioanalysis and medicinal chemistry.
Original articles and reviews related to the field of biocatalysis are welcome in this Special Issue.
