Funded Activity Summary

A liquid protein platform for dynamic bio-inspired reaction compartments. This project aims to investigate liquid protein as a novel material for biotechnology by producing protein droplets with a range of material and structural properties and assess the activity of internalised enzymes. The project will combine concepts from protein-based subcellular super-structure and enzyme protein structure and apply cutting-edge biochemistry methods to study how catalysis can be controlled and directed through liquid protein design. Expected outcomes include a new platform for using protein droplets to engineer dynamic catalytic compartments, strong international and interdisciplinary collaborations, and a knowledge-base for building synthetic biology tools and technologies for future green chemistry-based industries.
