REDEHAL project explores possibility of tunnels re-engineering in bacterial enzymes haloalkane dehalogenases. The novelty of the project lies in engineering of catalytic properties of enzymes by modification of their access tunnels.Additionally - proteins/enzymes engineering, designing of novel enzyme properties, modifications of protein stability.
