How can enzymes efficiently be evolved to have a broad substrate scope for #OrganicSynthesis?

In his talk at #Biochemistry2026, Stephan Hammer addressed this question on the example of methyl transferases.

Excellent #OrganicSynthesis is the basis of so many exciting #ChemBio projects. Nevertheless, we often do not present much of the synthesis that we do.

Therefore, I am very happy to be at the Dutch Symposium on Organic Chemistry #Lunteren2026, where organic synthesis will take the center stage for the next 2 days.
