Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Biotechnology and Bioengineering"
DOI: 10.1002/bit.27761
Abstract: Enzymatic synthesis of l‐alanine has the advantages of less byproducts, strong stereoselectivity, and high catalytic efficiency. Aspartate 4‐decarboxylase (ASD) is used industrially in DL‐aspartic acid resolution and l‐alanine production because it catalyzes the decarboxylation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12010-019-03013-1
Abstract: L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase was extracellularly expressed to enhance its production for β-alanine biosynthesis. L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase and cutinase were coexpressed in Escherichia coli; more than 40% of the L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase was secreted into the medium. Selection of best conditions among… read more here.
