Enzymes have a variety of roles in medical research, including the development of new drugs, the treatment of diseases, and the diagnosis or prognosis of illnesses. For easier testing and diagnosis, enzymes can also be added to assay kits, such as coupled multi-enzyme assay kits and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits.

Growing Use of Speciality Enzymes in Biopharmaceuticals Industry

The biopharmaceutical industry has experienced remarkable growth, and specialty enzymes have played a significant part in this expansion. Specialty enzymes are indispensable in the production of biologics, including therapeutic proteins, antibodies, and vaccines. The increasing prevalence of complex diseases, coupled with advancements in biotechnology and recombinant DNA technology, has fueled the demand for specialty enzymes in the pharmaceutical sector. As the biopharmaceutical market continues to thrive, the demand for specialty enzymes will likely follow suit. According to the European Chemical Industry Council, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals were the UK's second-largest manufacturing sector in 2021, trailing only machinery and transport equipment, with exports exceeding USD54 billion and value added to the economy of USD30.7 billion. Moreover, many medications have chiral preferences; as a result, the synthesis and development of chiral compounds are essential steps in the production of pharmaceuticals. In place of chemical catalysis, deploying enzymes has gained popularity in recent years for chiral resolution. The great selectivity and specificity of enzymatic reactions give the enzymatic pathway an advantage in this application. The byproducts of chemically catalyzed reactions frequently include optical isomers with both R- and S- orientations. In contrast, enzymes can quickly produce chiral and pure molecules, resolving a long-standing issue with conventional chemical synthesis.
