The purification of (R)-oxynitrilase (EC 4.1.2.10) from Linum usitatissimum (flax) has been improved considerably. The enzyme is obtained from seedlings in 60% yield by fractional salt precipitation followed by ion-exchange and hydrophobic-interaction chromatography. Final gel-permeation chromatography yields a protein with
