摘要

Abstract Hydroxynitrile lyases from sweet almond (EC 4.1. 2.10) and from sorghum bicolor (EC 4.1. 2.11) have been purified to homogeneity by ion-exchange chromatography. These enzymes catalyse the decomposition of α-hydroxynitriles to aldehydes and hydrocyanic acid (HCN) and show great promise for synthetic applications in the reverse reaction: the stereospecific addition of HCN to aldehydes to form enantio-pure α-hydroxynitriles.
