  • Artificial organelles for enzymatic cofactor reduction
    Patent number: 11981948
    Abstract: Described herein are engineered organelles comprising multi-component proteins from different species incorporated into a membrane structure with interior and exterior aspects. In one embodiment the artificial organelle incorporates one or more protein complexes that absorb optical energy and catalyze electron transfer in biochemical reactions that can be used to reduce NAD+ to NADH or analogues thereof.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 2, 2022
    Date of Patent: May 14, 2024
    Assignee: Ensovi, Inc.
