N2 - Biocatalysis has become a key emerging field for the development of new synthesis routes for already existing or new-to-nature products to meet the dynamic needs and agendas of our globalizing society. Both fundamental and application-oriented insights obtained in different disciplines from the natural and engineering sciences have opened up new avenues for the use of enzymes in reaction cascades for organic synthesis. The great potential of enzymes becomes significant when they are coupled with other enzymes or with chemo-catalysts to synthesize value-added products at industrially relevant product titers. Joining the forces from different disciplines for the use of enzymatic cascade reactions will pave the way for the use of nature's catalysts to produce products of our need.
