The Industrial Age of Biocatalytic Transamination
نویسندگان
چکیده
During the last decade the use of ω-transaminases has been identified as a very powerful method for the preparation of optically pure amines from the corresponding ketones. Their immense potential for the preparation of chiral amines, together with their ease of use in combination with existing biocatalytic methods, have made these biocatalysts a competitor to any chemical methodology for (asymmetric) amination. An increasing number of examples, especially from industry, shows that this biocatalytic technology outmaneuvers existing chemical processes by its simple and flexible nature. In the last few years numerous publications and patents on synthetic routes, mainly to pharmaceuticals, involving ω-transaminases have been published. The review gives an overview of the application of ω-transaminases in organic synthesis with a focus on active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and the developments during the last few years.

Biocatalytic potential of vanillin aminotransferase from Capsicum chinense
BACKGROUND The conversion of vanillin to vanillylamine is a key step in the biosynthetic route towards capsaicinoids in pungent cultivars of Capsicum sp. The reaction has previously been annotated to be catalysed by PAMT (putative aminotransferase; [GenBank: AAC78480.1, Swiss-Prot: O82521]), however, the enzyme has previously not been biochemically characterised in vitro. RESULTS The biochemi...
متن کاملOptimization of biocatalytic synthesis of Chitosan Ester using response surface methodology
Esterification of chitosan with adipic acid catalyzed by immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B was carried out in this study. Response surface methodology (RSM) based on a four-factor- five-level small central composite design (SCCD) was employed to model and analyze the reaction. A total of 21 experiments representing different combinations of the four reaction parameters including ch...
متن کاملBaker’s yeast catalyzed Henry reaction: Biocatalytic C-C bond formation
The C-C bond formation is an important reaction in organic synthesis to obtain value-added intermediates. Therefore, in this paper an attempt has been made to accelerate the Henry reaction (C-C bond formation) between aryl aldehydes and nitromethane using less expensive whole cell biocatalyst, baker’s yeast (BY). The scope of the methodology was also tested for the heteryl aldehyde i.e. 2-chlor...
