Stereo-selective conversion of mandelonitrile to (R)-(−)-mandelic acid using immobilized cells of recombinant Escherichia coli
Immobilized cells of a recombinant Escherichia coli expressing nitrilase from Pseudomonas putida were used to catalyze the hydrolysis of mandelonitrile (2hydroxy-2-phenylacetonitrile) to (R)-(-)-mandelic acid. The cells had been immobilized by entrapment in an alginate matrix. Conditions for the hydrolysis reaction were optimized in shake flasks and in a packed bed reactor. In shake flasks the ...
متن کاملThe Metabolism of Xanthine-8-carboxylic Acid by Alcaligenes Faecalis.
Alcaligenes jaecalis is capable of growing in response to simple pteridines as the sole source of nitrogen (1). Simple pteridines appear to be metabolized in this organism through the common intermediate, tetraoxypteridine (1, 2)) and cell-free extracts of the organism catalyze the conversion of tetraoxypteridine to xanthine-8-carboxylic acid (1). In these conversions the nitrogen atoms of the ...
متن کاملProduction and Characterization of Exopolysaccharide Produced by Alcaligenes Faecalis B14 Isolated from Indigenous Soil
Exo-polysaccharides (EPS) are environment friendly natural polymers secreted by microorganisms in the surrounding medium. Due to the presence of unique structural composition, EPS shows diverse applications such as in food formulations, pharmaceutical, and cement based construction industry, etc. In the present investigation, the bacteria producing higher exopolysaccharide was screened among ba...
متن کاملNitrogen compounds utilized by Alcaligenes faecalis.
Conn (1942) observed that Alcaligenes faecalis required organic nitrogen, but as observed by Porter (1946) no report was found of a study of nitrogen compounds suitable for continued growth of A. faecalis. It was reported, however, that this organism grew in a medium containing NH4 lactate as a source of nitrogen and carbon (Braun and Cahn-Bronner, 1921), and used NH4NO3, asparagine, cysteine, ...
متن کاملBiocatalytic Synthesis of 4-Hydroxyvaleric Acid from Levulinic Acid by Engineered 3-Hydroxybutyrate Dehydrogenase from Alcaligenes faecalis
Enzymatic conversion of levulinic acid (LA) to 4-hydroxyvaleric acid (4HV) was performed by an engineered oxidoreductase. LA, the reactant of this study, is a versatile chemical building block produced from cellulosic biomass, and can be converted into valuable chemicals and fuels. 4HV, the product of this study, can be used as a monomer of bio-polyester and a precursor of bio-fuels. Since ther...
