A library of 20 bakers’ yeast reductases, that are overexpressed in Escherichia coli, were screened against a variety of β-keto nitriles. Enzymes from the aldose reductase and the short chain dehydrogenase family displayed activity toward these substrates. All of the seven substrates were reduced with high enantioselectivities and in some cases both antipodes could be synthesized in high ees. These
针对各种β-酮腈筛选了在大肠杆菌中过表达的20个面包师酵母还原酶文库。来自醛糖还原酶和短链脱氢酶家族的酶显示出对这些底物的活性。七个底物的全部被高对映体选择性还原,在某些情况下,两种对映体都可以在高ee中合成。这些全细胞反应提供了克量的不对称化合物,这些化合物最终可导致可规模化和简单地合成5-羟色胺再摄取抑制剂和β-肾上腺素阻断剂的新药物类似物。
