Bioprospecting CAZymes from intestinal microbiomes for the tailored degradation of non-starch dietary polysaccharides
Dr. Kristin Low completed her Ph.D in Biochemistry at Queen’s University. Following this, her first postdoctoral fellowship was with Dr. P. Lynne Howell at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) characterizing protein-protein interactions in the alginate acetylation machinery of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. She is currently in Dr. Wade Abbott’s research program at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada where her research involves investigating the carbohydrate-active enzymatic potential of commensal bacteria of the poultry gastrointestinal tract.
