The potential of the hydroxynitrilelyasefromManihotesculenta towards ketone substrates was investigated. It was observed that the length of the aliphatic chain is a key parameter for the conversion of aliphatic, non‐branched ketones. Smaller substrates are readily converted with high enantioselectivites, but the elongation of the chain length causes a significant loss in enzyme activity. For a
