| abstract |
An enzyme-polymer conjugate having the structure of Formula (I) in which f, i and k are each independently an integer from 1 to 19; g and j are each independently an integer from 0 to 100; l is an integer from 1 to 100; n is an integer from 5 to 1000; and R1 is a hydrolase enzyme and R2 is OH or O-, or R1 is OH or O- and R2 is a hydrolase enzyme is provided. The conjugate is characterised in that in at least some of subunits n, the hydrolase enzyme is an amylase, and in other subunits n, the hydrolase enzyme is a protease. The conjugate may be suitable for use in a biotechnological process or for protecting a surface from biofouling. |
