Characterisation of the activity of a novel DNA ligase enzyme encoded by a crAss-like bacteriophage from the human gut

Hi everyone, I am happy to share the findings of my research. We could successfully express and purify a novel enzyme, that is encoded by a species of virus belonging to the most abundant viruses in human gut.

Hi, I'm Polina and I'm a Biochemstry student at the University of St Andrews. I am interested in the properties of enzymes and mechanism of biocatalysis. It is really exciting to be part of the Laidlaw Network. I had the most amazing summer in my life last year, doing research in MacNeill Lab, St Andrews. Looking forward to my second summer as a Scholar, which I will spend volunteering in Ghana.
