Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

1985 Jean-Louis Reymond obtained his diploma working with Professor Seebach at the ETH Zürich. He finished his thesis in the field of total synthesis in 1989 in the group of Professor Vogel. After being in the United States for two years at the Scripps Research Institute he became an assistant professor there. 1997 he returned to the University of Bern, Switzerland. His research interest is biocatalysis and in particular enzyme design, assays, profiling, fingerprints and inhibitors.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Nowadays, the characterization of enzymes using simple assays is a key technology for finding the optimum enzymes for, among others, catalysis in enzymology and drug discovery. Thus, enzymes have become an everyday tool not only for biologists, but also for chemists, and the number of applications is now overwhelming.
