Abstract |
Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) is one of the most widely used lipases for preparation of chiral building blocks because CAL-B possesses high enantioselectivity towards many secondary alcohols. However, CAL-B exhibits low enantioselectivity towards secondary alcohols bearing small substituents (i.e. but-3-yn-2-ol (E = 6) and 2-butanol (E = 7)). In this study, we present improvement of enantioselectivity of CAL-B toward but-3-yn-2-ol and 2-butanol. The medium binding pocket was altered to reduce the space of the medium binding pocket of CAL-B. The mutant enzymes exhibited higher enantioselectivity (E > 200 and E > 20) towards but-3-yn-2-ol and 2-butanol, respectively, compared to those of the wild type enzyme. |
