Whole-cell biocatalysts by design
Whole-cell biocatalysts provide unique advantages and have been widely used for the efficient biosynthesis of value-added fine and bulk chemicals, as well as pharmaceutically active ingredients. What is more, advances in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering, together with the rapid development of molecular genetic tools, have brought about a renaissance of whole-cell biocatalysis. These ...
متن کاملWhole cell biocatalysts: essential workers from Nature to the industry
Microorganisms have been exposed to a myriad of substrates and environmental conditions throughout evolution resulting in countless metabolites and enzymatic activities. Although mankind have been using these properties for centuries, we have only recently learned to control their production, to develop new biocatalysts with high stability and productivity and to improve their yields under new ...
متن کاملNovel Biocatalysts by Identification and Design
Enzymes produced from bacteria and eukaryotic organisms are presently being used for a large variety of different biotechnological applications. The rapidly increasing demand for enzymes which are active towards novel and often non-natural substrates has triggered the development of novel molecular biological methods of enzyme isolation and design. The metagenome approach is a cultivation-indep...
متن کاملAsymmetric chemoenzymatic synthesis of 1,3-diols and 2,4-disubstituted aryloxetanes by using whole cell biocatalysts.
Regio- and stereo-selective reduction of substituted 1,3-aryldiketones, investigated in the presence of different whole cell microorganisms, was found to afford β-hydroxyketones or 1,3-diols in very good yields (up to 95%) and enantiomeric excesses (up to 96%). The enantiomerically enriched aldols, obtained with the opposite stereo-preference by baker's yeast and Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 20016...
متن کاملDe novo design of biocatalysts.
The challenging field of de novo enzyme design is beginning to produce exciting results. The application of powerful computational methods to functional protein design has recently succeeded at engineering target activities. In addition, efforts in directed evolution continue to expand the transformations that can be accomplished by existing enzymes. The engineering of completely novel catalyti...
