T. Ohtani et al., ENANTIOSELECTIVITY OF CANDIDA-ANTARCTICA LIPASE FOR SOME SYNTHETIC SUBSTRATES INCLUDING ALIPHATIC SECONDARY ALCOHOLS, Journal of molecular catalysis. B, Enzymatic, 4(1-2), 1998, pp. 53-60
Candida antarctica lipase (Novozym 435) showed good to high enantiosel
ectivity in the acylation of aliphatic and aromatic secondary alcohols
(E = 38-166), and higher enantioselectivity in the hydrolysis of thei
r corresponding acetates than other lipases tested, including lipases
AY and MY (Candida sp.) and lipases PS, AK and LIP (Pseudomonas sp.).
