CHEMTUBIO, a new ERC project at IBEC to study enzymes with therapeutic potential

Carlos Moreno Yruela, who is currently a researcher at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland, was selected in the ERC Starting Grants call to develop the CHEMTUBIO project at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC). The project will study the chemistry of enzymes that erase microtubule modifications. These enzymes are essential for the functioning of our cells and have shown great promise as potential therapeutic targets for treating cancer, heart disease and neurological disorders.
