Recovery and characterization of monooxygenases for biocatalysis and bioremediation through development of novel DNA- and protein-based technology.

澳大利亚有数百个受有毒废物污染的地点，被认为对公众构成重大危害。 该项目将确定能够通过自然过程对此类污染场地进行补救的酶和生物体。 它还将导致人员培训和技术开发，这将有助于使生物补救成为一种环境可持续和成本效益高的技术。 环境蛋白质组学策略是一项前沿技术，有望在健康、食品科学和环境等领域得到广泛应用。 我们对这项技术的开发将为澳大利亚科学家和公司创造广泛的机会。

Australia contains hundreds of sites contaminated with toxic waste and judged to pose significant risk of harm to the public. This project will identify enzymes and organisms capable of remediating such contaminated sites by natural processes. It will also result in training of persons and development of techniques that will contribute to making bioremediation an environmentally sustainable and cost-effective technology. The environmental proteomics strategy is a frontier technology, expected to have broad applications in health, food science and the environment. Our development of this technology will create a wide range of opportunities for Australian scientists and companies.
