Our research focuses on (1) rapid screening of nature enzymes that fulfil the requirement of industrial synthesis by combining both sequence and functional screening strategies; (2) enhancement of the catalytic properties of the natural enzymes via molecular modification methods ... See Details>>
Mr. Jian-He Xu Graduated from the Deprtment of Chemistry, Tsinghua University (Beijing) in 1987 and got his Ph.D. degee of Chemicl Engineering from East China University of Scicence and Technology (Shanghai) in 1995, with partial research perfromed in Faculty of Engineering, Kyoto University during 1992-1994. He then joined the State Key Laboraoty of Bioreactor (SKLBE) at East China University of Scicence and Technology and was promoted to a full professor in 2000. In 2009 he was awarded as Changjiang Professorship by the Ministry of Education, China.
