Abstract
The scale up of earlier work from these laboratories using, the enzyme serinehydroxymethyltransferase has resulted in the use of this enzyme for the synthesis of 2-amino-3-hydroxy-1,6-hexanedicarboxylic acid (7 ) on a preparative scale. This compound, which has been barely describ ed in the literature, is potentially useful for the synthesis of carbo cyclic beta-lactams and carbocyclic nucleosides.
