Modern biocatalysis started in the mid-1850s with the pioneer works of Pasteur. Today, biotransformations have become an indispensable part of our lives, similar to other hi-tech products. Now, in 2019, biocatalysis "received" the Nobel Prize in Chemistry due to prof. Frances H. Arnold's achievements in the area of the directed evolution of enzymes. This book deals with some major topics of biotransformation, such as the application of enzymatic methods in glycobiology, including the synthesis of hyaluronan, complex glycoconjugates of N-acetylmuramic acid, and the enzymatic deglycosylation of rutin. Enzymatic redox reactions were exemplified by the enzymatic synthesis of indigo from indole, oxidations of ?-ketoesters and the engineering of a horse radish peroxidase. The enzymatic reactions were elegantly employed in biosensors, such as glucose oxidase, in the case of electrochemical glucose sensors. Nitrilases are important enzymes for nitrile metabolism in plants and microorganisms have already found broad application in industry-here, these enzymes were for the first time described in Basidiomyceta. This book nicely describes molecular biocatalysis as a pluripotent methodology-"A jack of all trades..."-which strongly contributes to the high quality and sustainability of our daily lives. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $aair pollution 610 $aAIRS 610 $aallometric relationship 610 $acarbon dioxide 610 $achlorophyll fluorescence 610 $aCrown defoliation 610 $acultivars 610 $adeterminant species 610 $adrought 610 $aEDU (ethylenediurea) 610 $aelevated O3 610 $aethylenediurea 610 $agrain yield 610 $agross primary production 610 $aGross Primary Production 610 $aIndia 610 $aleaf aging 610 $aMERRA-2 610 $amodified Temperature Vegetation Wetness Index 610 $aMODIS 610 $aN limitation 610 $anon-photochemical quenching 610 $aopen top chambers 610 $aozone 610 $aozone damage metrics 610 $aozone uptake 610 $aphotodamage 610 $aplant ecosystems 610 $aplant protection 610 $aSoil Moisture 610 $aspatial and temporal O3 610 $astomatal conductance 610 $atrend 610 $atropospheric ozone 610 $aVitis vinifera 610 $awheat 610 $awine quality 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aAgathokleous$b Evgenios$4edt$01311352 702 $aCarrari$b Elisa$4edt 702 $aSicard$b Pierre$4edt 702 $aAgathokleous$b Evgenios$4oth 702 $aCarrari$b Elisa$4oth 702 $aSicard$b Pierre$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557714703321 996 $aAir Pollution and Plant Ecosystems$93030279 997 $aUNINA
