Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are a family of sugars that are a major component in human milk and impart many immediate and long-term health benefits to breastfed infants. Although there is a large demand for HMOs for clinical research studies, chemical synthesis of these molecules is too complex for large-scale production. Our group is investigating the use of engineered enzymes as a tool to make HMOs in a more efficient manner. Students will have the opportunity to be a part of an interdisciplinary research group working in the areas of biochemistry (DNA cloning and protein expression), organic chemistry (carbohydrate synthesis), and computational chemistry (moleculardocking simulations).
