18-21 November 2014 in Wellington
Poster abstract; poster presented at NZMS conference

I was able to carry out a small follow up from the initial PhaC-PeiR SLMACC nanobeads programme, mainly with the aim to do some basic research on the published lytic enzyme PeiR within the methanogen-inhibiting nanobeads framework and to provide a personal development opportunity to Kerri Reilly. The main interest is to elucidate how PeiR mechanistically works, which parts of the enzyme are involved in methanogen cell wall binding and which one mediates the hydrolysis.
Because NZAGRC/MPI/PGGRC/PolyBatics are all partners in the preceding SLMACC and ongoing GPLER projects, I would like to obtain assessment on the data described in the poster abstract and permission for Kerri Reilly to submit the abstract to the 2014 NZMS conference.
