Smarter Enzymes for Healthier Food

In a new study, IIFH Faculty director Dr. Justin Siegel and his team take another step toward designing smarter enzymes for food and health applications. By testing targeted changes in a natural carbohydrate-processing enzyme, the team is building the high-quality data needed to better predict and engineer enzyme performance. The goal: power the next generation of functional foods and bioactive ingredients for healthier, more sustainable food systems.
