Elucidation and manipulation of the Hydantoin-Hydrolysing Enzyme System of Agrobacterium tumefaciens RU-OR for the Biocatalytic production of D-amino acids

There is widespread interest in the biocatalytic production of enantiomerically pure D-amino acids for use in the synthesis of antibiotics, insecticides, herbicides, drug carriers and many other pharmaceuticals. Hydantoin-hydrolysing enzyme systems can be successfully utilised to stereoselectively c...
