Recent Lipase-Catalyzed Hydrolytic Approaches to Pharmacologically Important β-and λ-Amino Acids

E.      Forro; F.      Fulop

Abstract

Kinetic and sequential kinetic enzymatic routes for the synthesis of enantiomeric β- and λ-amino acids through enzymatic ring cleavage of the corresponding lactams in organic solvents or solvent-free systems or a supercritical CO2 medium, and for the enantioselective hydrolysis of the corresponding amino esters in organic solvents are reviewed. In the frame of a practical guide, a simple and rapid GC enantioseparation technique for amino acids, including exact descriptions of selected enzymatic reactions, is additionally presented.

Keywords: β-amino acid, λ-amino acid, β-amino ester, burkholderia cepacia lipase PS, candida antarctica lipase B, enantiomer, enzymatic catalysis, GC enantioseparation, kinetic resolution, β-lactam, λ-lactam, lipase, organic solvent, sequential resolution, solvent-free system, supercritical CO2.

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues

Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
