K. Tomisaka et al., Enantioselective hydrolysis of amino acid esters by apomyoglobin: perfect kinetic resolution of a phenylalanine derivative, CHEM COMMUN, (01), 2001, pp. 133-134
Apoprotein of horse-heart myoglobin promoted enantioselective hydrolysis of
4-nitrophenyl esters of amino acids, which allowed nearly perfect kinetic
resolution of racemic N-Boc-phenylalanine ester (Boc-Phe-ONp).
