| Comments |
The enzyme from?Rhodococcus?ruber is involved in the biodegradation of alkyl sulfate esters used as detergents and released into the environment. The prefered substrates are linear secondary-alkyl sulfate esters, particularly octan-2-yl, octan-3-yl, and octan-4-yl sulfates [1]. The enzyme from?Pseudomonas?sp. DSM6611 utilizes a range of secondary-alkyl sulfate esters bearing aromatic, olefinic and acetylenic moieties. Perfect enantioselectivities are obtained for substrates bearing groups of different size adjacent to the sulfate moiety [4]. The enzymatic hydrolysis proceeds through inversion of the configuration at the stereogenic carbon atom [1,4]. The enzyme contains a Zn2+?ion [3]. |
