Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Description Short peptides can be used as an easily modifiable ligand for copper, allowing optimisation towards lpmo-type activity
Exploitation Route Further work is required to verify the outcome above absolutely. Beyond this others will be able to code for the sequence with a larger protein to potentially generate an artificial metalloenzyme
