Abstract
Aminopeptidase- and amidase-based methods for the production of enanti omerically pure amino acids, intermediates for pharmaceuticals and agr ochemicals, are discussed. Furthermore, enzymatic syntheses of the dip eptide sweetener aspartame and semisynthetic antibiotics (such as ampi cillin, amoxicillin, cephalexin, and cefadroxil) are highlighted.
