Congratulations to our PhD student Anya, who won the prize for best biological talk at the UoM Chemistry PGR Conference, showcasing her work on engineering a multifunctional IRED! Manchester Institute of Biotechnology



Our latest paper just out in Nature Chem Biol describes highly unexpected cryptic enzymology, not seen before in Nature, and provides a new way to synthesise peptides (future therapeutics) using ligase enzymes. Nature Chemical Biology Manchester Institute of Biotechnology nature.com/articles/s4158…

Scientists from The University of Manchester Micklefield Lab have discovered a greener, more efficient way to make peptide-based medicines. The new ligase enzymes can significantly reduce harmful waste and show promising effectiveness in combating cancers. Read more 👇manchester.ac.uk/discover/news/…

We are hiring! Post-doctoral vacancy in my team to synthesise polymers inspired by ice-binding proteins. Strong (CRP/CROP) polymer synthesis skills needed. Work in brand new labs UoM Chemistry and Manchester Institute of Biotechnology in one of the most dynamic and fun cities. jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?…


Peptides are important for medicine production, but they are currently made via unsustainable methods. Micklefield Lab have found a brand new enzyme that produces peptides more efficiently. This could be used to treat many diseases including cancer. manchester.ac.uk/discover/news/…
