Applied Biological Chemistry (Furuya Lab)
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores and harnesses the power of microorganisms and enzymes.
AboutAbout the lab
Asking microorganisms about their limitless potential
The Furuya Lab studies microorganisms and enzymes, with the aim of elucidating their functions and applying them.
Microorganisms in soil and in the human gut play important roles in ecosystems and in the body, yet the functions of only a very small fraction of them are known.
The lab works to discover new microorganisms and enzymes and to clarify their functions.
The functions it uncovers are intended for application to the production of useful substances and to environmental remediation.
Key terms
- Enzymes
- A group of proteins that catalyze chemical reactions.
- Production of useful substances
- Efforts to make useful substances by harnessing the action of microorganisms and enzymes.
- Environmental remediation
- Efforts to clean up the environment by harnessing the action of microorganisms and enzymes.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab asks microorganisms about their limitless potential, working to discover novel microorganisms and enzymes and to elucidate their functions. Beyond that, it looks toward applications in the production of useful substances and environmental remediation.
