Production of enantiomerically pure D-Phenylglycine using Pseudomonas aeruginosa 10145 as biocatalyst

Different bacterial strains were screened to detect nitrilase and/or nitrile hidratase/amidase activities towards benzonitrile, to be used as biocatalyst to produce enantiomerically pure non-proteinogenic amino acids using amino nitriles as starting material. The best biocatalyst found was Pseudomon...
