Degradation of acetaldehyde and its precursors by Pelobacter carbinolicus and P. acetylenicus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Pelobacter carbinolicus and P. acetylenicus oxidize ethanol in syntrophic cooperation with methanogens. Cocultures with Methanospirillum hungatei served as model systems for the elucidation of syntrophic ethanol oxidation previously done with the lost ...

Engineering in Life Sciences, 2006 AbstractBiocatalytic processes are useful methods for the production of chiral intermediates. As an example, alcohol dehydrogenases are applied for the production of chiral alcohols by asymmetric reduction of prochiral ketones. From this class of enzymes alcohol dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus brevis will be described with respect to its industrial ...

Stereoselective Biotransformation: Transfer of Learning to Advance Drug Metabolism and Biocatalysis
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Understanding stereoselective biotransformations has implications for predicting drug disposition and response and may also inspire novel biocatalytic and biomimetic strategies to address challenges in metabolite and API synthesis. ABSTRACT Chirality is an important determinant of drug action, as enantiomers can exhibit markedly different ...
