The OPTIBIOCAT project aims to develop biocatalysts for producing antioxidant compounds from fatty and sugar esters for the cosmetic industry. It focuses on enhancing enzyme performance and developing cost-effective production methods.
OPTIBIOCAT is a 48 months project aimed at developing biocatalysts based on feruloyl esterases (FAEs) and glucuronoyl esterases (GEs) for production of phenolic fatty- and sugar- esters with antioxidant activity for cosmetic industry, expanding the number/type of industrial biotransformations.
Selected FAEs and GEs available within the consortium will be improved for their thermo- and solvent- resistance and substrate specificity by site-directed mutagenesis and directed evolution.
