Biotechnology is an enabling tool for the discovery, development and commercialisation of a wide variety of valuable compounds. The target product of most of our projects has been one or several target compounds for use as pharmaceutical APIs, agrochemical actives, advanced food ingredients, sustainable active ingredients in personal care, or for many other product types.
Isomerase has worked on target-oriented projects where the compound is known, and where our collaborators are seeking material supply, new biosynthetic routes or lower cost of goods.
Other projects are diversity-orientated, for instance discovery projects where all that is known is a required property and Target Product Profile (TPP). Isomerase can then generate a range of potential routes to the product and/or help with designing screening cascades to discover the product(s).
Example compound classes we have worked on include:
- Polyketides
- Macrolides
- Peptides (ribosomal and non-ribosomal)
- Sterols
- Terpenes
- Glycosylated products
- Amino acids
- A variety of other primary and secondary metabolites.
These can be natural products, analogues or previously unknown compounds.
