Carboxypeptidase Y, Baker's yeast (S. cerevisiae)

Carboxypeptidase Y, Baker's yeast (S. cerevisiae) is a biocatalyst and a key enzyme in new biocatalyst technology. Enzyme engineering focuses on enhancing enzyme reaction kinetics, substrate selectivity, and activity under harsh conditions such as low or high pH. By introducing stimulus responsiveness to these enzyme modifications, dynamic control of activity is also possible[1].
