Delta Lactone Aroma

Turning Glucose into Premium Aromas

About

We are a computational and synthetic biology group focused on decoding and redesigning complex enzymes such as polyketide synthases. By combining enzyme modeling, pathway engineering, and microbial strain development, we create efficient biological systems to produce high‑value fine biochemicals sustainably and at scale.
