Patent

CA 2217144

The present invention is directed to an isolated esterase gene coding for an esterase capable of causing asymmetric hydrolysis of an organic carboxylic acid ester of a cyclopentenolone of formula I: <See fig. I> wherein R1 is C1-C,10 alkyl, C2-C10 alkenyl, C2-C10 alkynyl or C1-C4 haloalkyl, to produce the cyclopentenolone of formula I in (S)-form, and hybridizing to the base sequence of SEQ ID NO:1. It is useful for the industrially favourable production of optically active cyclopentenolones of formula I which serve as intermediates in the preparation of drugs, agricultural chemicals or other active products.

L'invention porte sur un gène isolé d'estérase, codant une estérase apte à provoquer l'hydrolyse asymétrique d'un ester d'acide carboxylique d'une hydroxypenténone de formule I (voir fig. I), où R1 est un groupe alkyle C1-C10, alcényle C2-C10, alcynyle C2-C10, ou haloalkyle C1-C4, pour former l'hydroxypenténone de formule I sous forme (S), et s'hybrider à la séquence de bases de SEQ ID NO:1. Il est utile pour la production commerciale d'hydroxypenténones optiquement actives de formule I, qui servent comme intermédiaires pour la préparation de médicaments, de produits chimiques agricoles ou d'autres ingrédients actifs.
