D‐Fructose‐6‐phosphate aldolase (FSA) is a key biocatalyst for the alternative synthetic construction of biologically active products with known therapeutic and research interest or novel structures relevant to drug discovery. Novel aldol addition reactions of dihydroxyacetone and hydroxyacetone to a variety of aldehydes catalyzed by FSA are presented (see scheme).
Structure-guided redesign of d-fructose-6-phosphate aldolase from E. coli: remarkable activity and selectivity towards acceptor substrates by two-point mutation
Structure-guided re-design of the acceptor binding site of D-fructose-6-phosphate aldolase from E. coli leads to the construction of FSA A129S/A165G double mutant with an activity between 5- to >900-fold higher than that of wild-type towards N-Cbz-aminoaldehyde derivatives.
