Journal ArticleDOI
peri-Dimethylamino substituent effects on proton transfer at carbon in α-naphthylacetate esters: a model for mandelate racemase.
Richard J. Delley,Subhajit Bandyopadhyay,Mark A. Fox,Constanze Schliehe,David R. W. Hodgson,Florian Hollfelder,Anthony J. Kirby,AnnMarie C. O'Donoghue,AnnMarie C. O'Donoghue +8 more
TL;DR: The unexpected 29-fold decrease in the k(DO) value upon the introduction of a peri-dimethylamino group is attributed to an unfavourable steric and/or electronic substituent effect on intermolecular deprotonation by deuteroxide ion.
Book ChapterDOI
Microfluidic Droplets and Their Applications: Diagnosis, Drug Screening and the Discovery of Therapeutic Enzymes
TL;DR: Microfluidic devices enable the high-throughput screening of millions of metagenomic genes to discover new enzymes for improved catalytic efficiency or new therapeutic activities.
Posted ContentDOI
High-Throughput Steady-State Enzyme Kinetics Measured in a Parallel Droplet Generation and Absorbance Detection Platform
TL;DR: In this paper , a multiplexed droplet absorbance detector is proposed to detect the emergence of product by reading the absorbance of the droplet sets at multiple adjustable time points (reversing the flow direction after each detection).
Journal ArticleDOI
Acoustic sorting of microfluidic droplets at kHz rates using optical absorbance
Esther S. Richter,and Stephan Link,John S. McGrath,Raymond W. Sparrow,Maximilian Gantz,Elliot J Medcalf,Florian Hollfelder,Thomas Franke +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , an acoustic activated absorbance sorter was proposed for detection of absorbance using fibre-based interrogation of samples with integrated lenses in the microfluidic PDMS device for focusing and collimation of light.
Book ChapterDOI
Enzyme Promiscuity and Evolution of New Protein Functions
Bert van Loo,Florian Hollfelder +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter introduces the various categories of promiscuity and their possible role in enzyme evolution, and reviews some of the well-known examples of enzymes for which the promiscuous function is industrially relevant, leading to conversions of nonnatural compounds.
