B7 ACID
Basic chemistry at interfaces controls glycan degradation
Dr. Christina Roggatz
This project investigates how naturally fluctuating abiotic conditions shape the balance between glycan degradation vs. sequestration. B7 ACID concentrates on assessing dynamic physico-chemical conditions at biotic interfaces, investigating their impact on enzyme-glycan reactions and translating the test-tube results via modelling into temporally & spatially relevant dynamics at the ecosystem scale.
