Production of non-protein L-amino acids useful for the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, comprises an enzyme catalyzed reaction of O-acetyl-L-serine with a nucleophile

摘要

Non-protein L-amino acids (I) are produced by the reaction of O-acetyl-L-serine (II) with a nucleophile (III) in the presence of a catalyst comprising O-acetyl-L-serine sulfhydrylase at pH 5-7.4.
