Natural enzymes could produce these in an environmentally friendly way\u2014if they didn&#8217;t need a co-substrate that is expensive to produce to date. A research team at Ruhr-Universit\u00e4t Bochum (RUB) has discovered exactly the necessary enzymes in unicellular green algae. Better still: living algae can be used as biocatalysts for certain substances, and they bring the co-substrate along, producing it in an environmentally friendly manner through photosynthesis.
