In Exploration Science, Episode 4, we continue our exploration of enzyme-mediated technologies in peptide and protein science. As a follow-up to a question posed in Episode 2, the CEO of EnzyTag, Leendert van den Bos, and Peptide Expert, Rodney Lax, tell us about the growing utility of Chemo-Enzymatic Peptide Synthesis (CEPS) from discovery to manufacturing.
