Abstract
Herein we give a brief account of the efforts our group made in recent years to discover novel enzymes and utilize them by bioprocess engineering techniques for stereoselective synthesis of various enantiomerically pure chiral chemicals with high value in a greener manner. Included are discussions on oxidoreductases, expoxide hydrolases and glucosidases in whole cells or isolated form from microorganisms or plants.
Keywords: Target-directed discovery, Biocatalysis, Oxidoreductases, Expoxide hydrolases, Glucosidases, Bioprocess engineering, Reductases, Rhodotorula sp. AS2.2241, Bacillus sp.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
