Current work: Bioprospection of new enzymes for biomass degradation
The main objective is to contribute to the development of enzymatic hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse for the production of cellulosic ethanol.
Through analysis of genomes of microorganisms with demonstrated hydrolytic potential we expect to obtain genes and heterologous proteins for efficient degradation of biomass and high conversion yields.
