254 Advances in Enzymatic Catalysis I


Description:
This session, consisting of both invited and submitted papers, will highlight advances in learning from and adapting nature's catalysis. We encourage submissions from both experimental and computational groups studying a wide range of enzymes. Topics can include, but are not limited to, elucidating reaction mechanisms, new assays for enzyme screening, and approaches for adapting enzymes to meet industrial needs. Especially desired are papers on the development or application of new experimental and computational methods. Paper submissions from academic, governmental, and industrial institutions working in the field of enzymatic catalysis are welcome.
