Kinetic resolution of rac-1,2-diols using the biocatalyst Burkholderia cepacia lipase (BCL) immobilized on a biodegradable binary blend support of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose(HPMC)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been investigated. The immobilization technique improved enzyme activity significantly and it has excellent recyclability with

Soluble epoxide hydrolase (EH) from the potato Solanum tuberosum and an evolved EH of the bacterium Agrobacterium radiobacter AD1, EchA-I219F, were purified for the enantioconvergent hydrolysis of racemic styrene oxide into the single product (R)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol, which is an important intermediate

Biotechnology letters, 30(1), 127-133 (2007-08-01)
Enantio-convergent hydrolysis of racemic styrene oxides was achieved to prepare enantiopure (R)-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol by using two recombinant epoxide hydrolases (EHs) of a bacterium, Caulobacter crescentus, and a marine fish, Mugil cephalus. The recombinant C. crescentus EH primarily attacked the benzylic carbon

Bioresource technology, 101(21), 8461-8463 (2010-06-25)
In this study, a highly efficient process for Candida parapsilosis-catalyzed deracemization of racemic 1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol (PED) was described, based on a resin-based in situ substrate feeding and product removal (ISSFPR) methodology. The resin H103 was selected and used to keep the

Analytical biochemistry, 314(1), 135-141 (2003-03-14)
In this paper we report the development of a novel and simple spectrophotometric assay which allows one to achieve the continuous, rapid, sensitive, and accurate determination of an epoxide hydrolase activity. This assay is based on the elaboration of a
