Rate My Professor Peter-Leon Hagedoorn

His recent endeavors include enzyme immobilization and flow biocatalysis in collaboration with Prof. Hanefeld, focusing on Mn2+-dependent aldolases, hydroxynitrile lyases, thermophilic glycosyl transferases, and hydratases incorporating FeS clusters. Author of over 110 peer-reviewed publications centered on metalloenzyme reaction mechanisms and metalloproteomics, standout works encompass "Unity in the biochemistry of the iron-storage proteins ferritin and bacterioferritin" (Chemical Reviews, 2015), "The catalytic center of ferritin regulates iron storage via Fe(II)-Fe(III) displacement" (Nature Chemical Biology, 2012), and "Iron–sulfur clusters as inhibitors and catalysts of viral replication" (Nature Chemistry, 2022). Hagedoorn contributes editorially to Analytical Biochemistry, previously served on the board of the Netherlands Biotechnology Society (2016-2019), currently acts as secretary of the European Federation of Biotechnology's Biocatalysis division, sits on the scientific committee for the 2024 European Conference on Biotechnology, and leads a workgroup in the COST action FeSImmChemNet. Following a postdoctoral position, he joined TU Delft as assistant professor in 2003.
