82. Using Protein Engineering to Tackle Non-Biodegradable Materials (with Ryen O’Meara)
Manage episode 435508940 series 3412534
In today's episode we are joined by Ryen O’Meara, a Chemical Engineer graduate student in Caltech. Ryen joined Nobel Laureate Francis Arnold's lab with the aim to engineer enzymes that degrade emerging environmental contaminants, and merge sustainability and protein engineering. We discuss with Ryen the environmentally concerning Silicon-Carbon bonds in everyday products (such as lubricants and shampoos) and how he has engineered an enzyme to break these Silicon-Carbon bonds!
Today’s episode was made possible thanks to the support of the Biochemical Society public engagement fund. We would like to thank the Biochemical Society for the generous grant supporting Science Communication initiatives like these. https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=the+biochemical+society&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
