  • Proteus Teams Up with ARD in France (Corrected)

    Apr 1

    The goal of developing improved enzymes to increase the efficiency of generating sugar feedstocks for green chemical production continues to attract new players. French biotech company Proteus announced a new partnership with Agro Industrie Recherches et Developpements (ARD) to convert non-food agricultural products into higher value compounds. Proteus has a technology platform based on its L-Shuffling methods for creating diversity for laboratory evolution of enzymes. ARD is a research and development center for agro-industry groups in France specializing in non-food applications. This new partnership joins an already crowded field that includes Novozymes, Danisco-Genencor, Shell-Codexis, and BP-Verenium just to name a few.
