The present invention is based on the discovery that 2-deoxyribose-5-phosphate aldolase (DERA, EC 4.1.2.4) and variants thereof can be used to catalyze sequential asymmetric aldol reactions between a wide variety of donor and acceptor aldehydes. The reaction products typically contain at least two new stereogenic centers and can be produced in enantiomerically pure form. As such, DERA catalyzed asymmetric aldol chemistry can be exploited to produce synthons for the synthesis of a variety of bioactive molecules.
本发明基于发现,2-去氧核糖-5-磷酸醛基酶(DERA,EC 4.1.2.4)及其变体可用于催化多种供体和受体醛之间的顺序不对称醛基反应。反应产物通常包含至少两个新的立体异构中心,并可以对映纯形式制备。因此,DERA催化的不对称醛基化学可用于生产用于合成各种生物活性分子的合成子。
