Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to an enzyme screening method, in particular to a high-throughput screening method for alcohol dehydrogenase, and belongs to the field of biotechnology. Background technique
[0002] Chiral alcohols are recognized as very important and widely used intermediates in organic synthesis. Many drugs use chiral alcohols as the main building blocks, such as the antihistamine bepotastine besilate and the lipid-lowering drug Lipitor and the antiplatelet agglutinin clopidogrel. Asymmetric reduction of prochiral carbonyl compounds to synthesize chiral alcohols is the strategy with the highest atom economy and the most potential for application and development.
[0003] Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) is an important oxidoreductase in organisms, which can reversibly catalyze the reduction of carbonyl groups and the oxidation of hydroxyl groups, and is widely used in the fields of biocatalysis and biomedicine. Alcohol dehydrogenase can catalyze c...
