Use of Ionic Liquids to Increase the Yield and Enzyme Stability in the β-Galactosidase Catalysed Synthesis of N-Acetyllactosamine

Kaftzik, Nicole, Wasserscheid, Peter, Kragl, Udo·2002·Organic Process Research & Development

Abstract

The use of ionic liquids as alternative solvents for enzyme catalysis was investigated. β-Galactosidase from Bacillus circulans catalyses the synthesis of N -acetyllactosamine starting from lactose and N -acetylglucosamine in a transglycoslyation reaction. The addition of 25% v/v of 1,3-di-methyl-imidazol-methyl sulfate [MMIM] [MeSO 4 ] as a water-miscible ionic liquid suppresses the secondary hydrolysis of the formed product, resulting in doubling the yield to almost 60%. The enzyme can be reused several times after ultrafiltration of the reaction mixture without loss of activity. Results of different amounts of ionic liquids in the reaction medium on the thermostability of the galactosidase as well as on oxidoreductases are presented as well.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
