Functional enzyme carriers for industrial conditions from engineered spores

[ 01 ]About
Caravel Bio is developing a novel synthetic biology platform that uses microbial spores and enzymes to create catalysts that are long-lasting and can withstand extreme conditions. Caravel Bio engineers spores to be functional enzyme carriers for industrial conditions in which free enzymes traditionally fall apart and living cells are not a viable option. By using an engineered spore, it gets all the benefits of traditional enzyme immobilization—higher stability and lifetime—without any of the drawbacks.
