Lipase catalysed Michael addition of secondary amines to acrylonitrile

TL;DR: A new enzymatic process is described that widens the applicability of these biocatalysts in organic synthesis by catalyse Michael-type addition of secondary amines to acrylonitrile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Artificial metalloenzymes based on biotin-avidin technology for the enantioselective reduction of ketones by transfer hydrogenation

TL;DR: A combined chemo-genetic procedure allows us to optimize the activity and selectivity of these hybrid catalysts: up to 94% enantiomeric excess for the reduction of p-methylacetophenone.

Synthetic ligation reassembly in directed evolution

Jay M. Short
TL;DR: In this paper, a process of preparing nucleic acid and poly nucleotide libraries by cloning non-randomly generated nucleotide fragments having ligatable ends into an expression vector was proposed.

Directed evolution and the creation of enantioselective biocatalysts.

TL;DR: This work discusses recent examples of creating enantioselective biocatalysts by directed evolution and identifies improved enzyme variants identified, preferably after being secreted into culture medium, by screening or selection for the desired property.
