From our research and development activities, several biotechnology projects are conducted with potential industrial applications.
Multi-enzymatic nanomachines for the controlled transformation of terrestrialplant biomass.
The climate emergency requires us to move from an economy based on fossil fuels to a sustainableenergy mix, allowing a transition from our carbon-based societies to a more sustainable economy.In this context, the valorisation of lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) is central for the development ofthe circular bioeconomy. LCB is composed of ...
BlueRemediomics: Harnessing the Marine Microbiome for Novel Sustainable Biogenics and Ecosystem Services
Launched in December 2022, the Horizon Europe BlueRemediomics project aims to harness the untapped potential of marine microbial resources. Lasting four years, and bringing together an international consortium of experts including the Metabolic Genomics UMR (Genoscope/CEA-Jacob), this project will develop new tools and new approaches to explore marine microbiome data ...
ALADIN project: Active Learning to Accelerate biocatalyst Development for INdustrial biotechnology
The ALADIN project aims to build an integrated and distributed technological platform which will rely on the combination of combinatory genetics with artificial intelligence. It will enable the exploration of natural molecular diversity, its appropriation to build new purpose-based catalysts (enzymes and micro-organisms), and the rapid expansion of the knowledge ...
MODAMDH project: In silico approach for amine dehydrogenase discovery
The current trend in Chemistry is to perform the energy transition successfully by considering cheaper and greener alternatives. This can be achieved by the substitution of some chemical steps by biocatalyzed ones or the design of new enzymatic routes, thus reducing waste and polluting organometallic catalysts. As useful building blocks ...
