Abstract
A new immobilization strategy using compartmentalized nanoreactors is herein reported for two biocatalytic processes: (1)N-acetylneuraminate lyase (NAL) is internalized in NAL-c-CLEnAs and used in a continuous flow aldol condensation ofN-acetyl-d-mannosamine with sodium pyruvate toN-acetylneuraminic acid; (2) two hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (HSDH) 7α- and 7β-HSDH are incorporated inc-CLEnAs and used in a two-step cascade batch synthesis of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). The versatile use ofc-CLEnA demonstrates that this immobilization methodology is a valuable addition to the toolbox of synthetic chemists.
