Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biochemical technology, in particular to the application of nitrile hydratase in catalyzing the hydration reaction of cyanopyrazine compounds to generate amide pyrazine compounds. Background technique
[0002] Amidepyrazine (or pyrazinamide) is an important anti-tuberculosis drug, which has a good effect on tuberculosis. In recent years, it has been found that amidopyrazine has a good bactericidal effect on recalcitrant bacteria, so it is widely used in clinic; and amidopyrazine can be used as an intermediate for the preparation of various antibacterial and antiviral drugs. For example, derivatives of amide pyrazine: 6-fluoro-3-hydroxy-2-amide pyrazine, also known as Favipiravir (English: Favipiravir, also known as Avigan or favilavir), is an antiviral drug, produced by Professor Koyasu Shiraki of the Faculty of Medicine of Toyama University in Japan and Toyama Chemical Industry (now Fujifilm Toyama Chemical), a s...
