Research
Prof. Benítez-Mateos (*1991) conducts research on sustainable biocatalysis for the synthesis of natural products with relevance as pharmaceuticals, food additives, and agrochemicals. Her group aims to develop highly stable and efficient enzymatic cascades by integrating approaches from bioengineering, enzyme immobilization, and (flow) chemistry. A particular emphasis of her laboratory is on elucidating the molecular mechanisms of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and their applications in biotechnology and biocatalysis.
