CASCAT GmbH is a young and innovative Start-up company in the field of industrial biotechnology. The expertise of CASCAT is to combine the best of two worlds - synthetic biotechnology and classical chemical catalysis - to realize novel process routes. Hereby, we can ensure multi-stage processes that will bring industrial production to the next level. In order to obtain stable and robust processes which can be applied in industrial scale, our enzymes are engineered towards optimal process conditions and the presence of their chemical counterparts. The use of promiscuous biocatalysts enables short cascades and reduced needs of cost intensive co-factors thus lowering production costs. Using this approach we realize synthetic cascades towards chemical building blocks, fine chemicals as well as pharmaceutical molecules. Our aim is the realization of cost efficient, sustainable “green” processes by using energy saving and atom efficient transformations with improved down-stream processing. Our substrates are based on renewable resources, such as biomass to act in the field of bio-economy. Our first products comprises phosphorylated sugars as well as sugar derivatives.
