Reliance Life Sciences is pursuing research programs in Enzymology in the following areas:

• Industrial Enzymes for Biofuels
• Therapeutic Enzymes

Reliance Life Sciences is focusing on production of low-cost, specific and efficient enzymes. Technology innovation is centred on molecular modelling guided enzyme engineering with the objective of obtaining hyper-catalytic enzymes with high specificity. This integrated strategy helps isolate and / or engineer enzymes for very high catalysis.

Reliance Life Sciences is exploring biocatalysts with special properties through screening and innovative technologies to develop industrial processes and products.

Industrial Enzymes for Biofuels

Under the Industrial Enzymes program, Reliance Life Sciences is involved in production of biomass degrading enzymes such as Glucoamylase, Cellulase, Hemicellulase and other enzymes such as Lipase, Glucose isomerase etc.

Reliance Life Sciences has developed enzyme-based processes for bioethanol production from biomass and is actively engaged in enzyme based technology development for biobutanol production from biomass.

Therapeutic Enzymes

Under the Therapeutic enzymes program, Reliance Life Sciences is involved in developing process for production of enzymes like Staphylokinase, Glucocerebrosidase, etc.
