Happy to share our latest work from the Biotransformation Group at IQAC-CSIC: a new biocatalytic route to C–N bond formation, now published in Angewandte Chemie. Many thanks to everyone who contributed — your effort made this possible! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Another nice collaboration with Sabine L. Flitsch about “Stereoselective Chemoenzymatic Cascades for the Synthesis of Densely Functionalized Iminosugars” See the publication in JACS pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

La UPC fent cursos zero de coneixements bàsics de química per les deficiències en la formació dels estudiants. Farien bé a @educaciocat de deixar de fer cas al qui tenen deliris pedagògics i volen reduir encara més les matèries de ciències al batxillerat.

Another day another secondment🙌🏼 Diletta Arceri (ESR 15) is developing a droplet based method for the screening of Dddk activity at the @UAM_Madrid together with John Martinez (ESR 2).

Contribution from our group at IQAC-CSIC on the synthesis of homochiral 2-hydroxy-4-arylbut-3-enoic acids, important precursors for the synthesis of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, in collaboration with Prozomix. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

Today was the great #wine filtering, bottling, and tasting @TischlerLab ... #Biotechnology for real application... My team liked it and in advance we had a #pizza 🍕 lunch to be prepared for the wine pump ⛽, spoiler it's tasty 😋 soon gone ... What next???

Exciting news! Our biocatalysis research project is now available in a video format! Watch it if you want to learn more ! Thanks to our incredible team, @Scienseed and the support of @MSCActions, we can share our work in a beautiful animation ! #bio #AcademicTwitter #research

Nice collaboration with Kroutil’s group on Biocatalytic Transamination of Aldolase-Derived 3-Hydroxy Ketones, which allow access to both diastereomers of the 1,3-amino alcohol motifs. See the publication in ASC onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

A novel stereoselective methodology developed in our lab for the synthesis of 2-hydroxy acids and 2-hydroxy-4-butyrolactone derivatives, using a tandem of aldolases + ketorrreductases just appeared in ACS Catalysis, in collaboration with Prozomix Ltd. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

ThDP-dependent C-C forming enzymes responsible for the synthesis of the branched sugars of lipopolysaccharides of bacteria. A successful collaboration between Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg & Institute for Advanced Chemistry of Catalonia (IQAC-CSIC). onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Recent Advances in the Substrate Selectivity of Aldolases. Virgil Hélaine, Cédric Gastaldi, Marielle Lemaire, Pere Clapés*, and Christine Guérard-Hélaine* pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Happy to announce this review paper on Aldolases as a result of a fruitful collaboration with the French group at Université Clermont Auvergne, CNRS, SIGMA Clermont, Institut de Chimie de Clermont-Ferrand pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Desde el #CID-CSIC (@IQAC_CSIC e @IDAEA_CSIC) os deseamos muy felices fiestas! Al 2022 le pedimos muchas cosas, entre ellas, seguir confiando en que la ciencia es la mejor herramienta que tenemos para lograr un mundo y una sociedad mejor ✨🎄🔬🧫👩‍🔬

Unsere Gedanken sind bei den Opfern, ihren Familien und Angehörigen. #Würzburg

Tienes tiempo hasta el 31 de mayo! @CCTOP9 @ClapesPere 👇👇👇

Fantàstica notícia! Una vacuna contra la #malaria amb un 77% d’eficàcia! Bravo @JennerInstitute !!!!

It is a special honor today to announce that the winner of the #biotrans Senior Award will be Prof. Kurt Faber from the University of Graz (@elk_crew).
