The focus of the transnational collaboration project HyperIn, funded within the ERA-Net Program, lies in the integrated approach for the identification of novel P450-enzymes with the potential for targeted conversion of fine chemicals within industrial processes. Therefore, de-novo sequencing procedures of non-characterized bacteria and fungi followed by a functional annotation of the genomes, as well as identification of active genes via gene expression analyses, are some aspects of the project which are addressed by the Functional Genomics group.
