Novel glycoprotease discovery and characterisation for enhanced detergent performance

Newcastle University BiSCoP CTP

In this exciting joint academia-industry project the student will exploit metagenomes and the huge untapped capacity of the human gut microbiota to breakdown glycoconjugates to discover novel protease enzymes that can potentially increase the performance and environmental sustainability of leading P&G automatic dishwashing brands.

MSc by Research: How are SUMO substrates selected for modification ?

University of Dundee School of Life Sciences

SUMO has diverse roles in cellular physiology that in most cases are mediated by its ability to interact non-covalently with hydrophobic patches of low sequence complexity known as SUMO Interaction Motifs (SIMs). Read more
