A developing therapy of cystic fibrosis caused by the DeltaF508 mutation in CFTR employs correction of defective CFTR chloride channel gating by a 'potentiator' and of defective CFTR protein folding by a 'corrector'. Based on SAR data for phenylglycine-type potentiators
Three different approaches for immobilizing cross-linked chitosan molecules (CS-s) in sol-gel phases to form chiral OT-CEC capillaries were comparatively investigated in this study. To synthesize column I, a bare capillary was first silanized with triethoxysilane (TEOS) and then reacted with

In terms of chiral recognition for racemic aryl methyl sulfoxides in the solid state, three kinds of crystalline (S)-alkylglycyl-(S)-phenylglycines were examined as potential dipeptides host molecules. When (S)-alanyl-(S)-phenylglycines [(S,S)-Ala-Phg] crystallized with aryl methyl sulfoxides, the stereochemistry of preferentially included sulfoxides

α-Amino acid ester hydrolases (AEHs) are enzymes of interest to the semi-synthesis of β-lactam antibiotics with α-amino, such as cephalexin and cefaclor. An undesired side reaction, the hydrolysis of α-amino acid ester, had hindered applications in antibiotics synthesis. Although the

Following induction with D-phenylglycine both d-phenylglycine aminotransferase activity and benzoylformate decarboxylase activity were observed in cultures of Pseudomonas stutzeri ST-201. Induction with benzoylformate, on the other hand, induced only benzoylformate decarboxylase activity. Purification of the benzoylformate decarboxylase, followed by N-terminal
