TAJIMA TAKAHISA
Associate Professor

Discipline Biotechnology
Academic Degrees Hiroshima University Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering
Hiroshima University Master of Engineering
Research Fields Engineering; Process / Chemical engineering; Biofunction / Bioprocess
Agricultural sciences; Agricultural chemistry; Applied microbiology
Research Keywords Bioconversion, Simple Biocatalyst, Psychrophile
Comments I am interested in biological conversion using various kinds of enzymes. We have developed psychrophile-based simple biocatalysts (PSCats) to conduct efficient conversion processes. PSCats can produce the various compounds with high yields only by their biosynthetic thermostable enzymes, which are heterologously expressed in psychrophilic cells whose psychrophilic metabolism is suppressed by heat treatment.
