Marco Fraaije

Prof. dr. ir. Marco W. Fraaije studeerde Moleculaire Wetenschappen aan de Universiteit van Wageningen, waar hij ook promoveerde. Hij was postdoctoraal onderzoeker bij het departement Genetics & Microbiology aan de Universiteit van Pavia (Italië) en is sinds 1999 werkzaam bij de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. Als assistent-professor leidde hij verschillende onderzoeken gericht op het ontdekken van nieuwe biokatalysatoren (enzymen) en het onderzoeken van hun functie. Tegenwoordig is hij werkzaam als hoogleraar in moleculaire enzymologie. In 2016 werd hem een Vici-onderzoeksbeurs toegekend en in 2018 ontving hij de BIOCAT Science Award voor zijn academische bijdrage aan het onderzoeksveld van de biotechnologie. Fraaije publiceerde honderden artikelen, maar richtte zich vooral op biokatalyse en enzyme engineering. Zijn onderzoek centreert zich rond het ontdekken, herontwerpen en toepassen van nieuwe enzymen met de nadruk op flavine-afhankelijke enzymen, enzymen die gebruik maken van vitamine B2 voor hun functie.

Naast de academische toepassingen van zijn onderzoeken slaat Fraaije ook een brug tussen de wetenschappelijke wereld en de industrie. Zo was hij medeoprichter en nu adviseur van het start-up bedrijf GECCO-biotech. Ook coördineerde hij meerdere EU-gefinancierde initiatieven, waaronder het ROBOX project. Dit project was voornamelijk gericht op het ontwerpen van robuuste enzymen die gebruikt kunnen worden in oxidatieprocessen. Deze enzymen kunnen chemische reacties vervangen die momenteel worden ingezet in productieprocessen, met als doel de behoefte aan het gebruik van edelmetalen en gifstoffen te verminderen. Daarnaast werkt de onderzoeksgroep aan computer-gebaseerde engineering methoden om enzymen snel aan te kunnen passen voor biotechnologische toepassingen.
