“Design of Artificial Alcohol Oxidases: Alcohol Dehydrogenase–NADPH Oxidase Fusions for Continuous Oxidations” paper by our ROBOX partners at RUG report the creation of the bifunctional fusion enzymes and these were found to be efficient biocatalysts to perform alcohol oxidations, merely requiring a catalytic amount of cofactor and molecular oxygen. By fusing these redox enzymes, the production and use of the two enzymes is greatly simplified.

H2020Robox
The European Union has selected the ROBOX proposal as H2020 project. This project has 19 partners and will be coordinated by DSM Geleen. The proposal "ROBOX: Expanding the Industrial Use of Robust Oxidative Biocatalysts for the Conversion and Production of Alcohols" took first place in the selection.
