Reductions play a key role in organic synthesis, producing chiral products with new
functionalities. Enzymes can catalyse such reactions with exquisite stereo‐, regio‐and …

Due to the high risk of heart disease caused by the intake of trans fatty acids, a method to
eliminate trans fatty acids from foods has become a critical issue. Herein, we engineered …

Production of commodity chemicals, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes
(BTEX), from renewable resources is key for a sustainable society. Biocatalysis enables one …

Light‐driven biocatalytic processes are notoriously hampered by poor penetration of light
into the turbid reaction media. In this study, wirelessly powered light‐emitting diodes are …

The fatty acid photodecarboxylase from Chlorella variabilis NC64 A (CvFAP) catalyses the
light‐dependent decarboxylation of fatty acids. Photoinactivation of CvFAP still represents …

Fatty epoxides are unique building blocks in organic transformations and materials
production; however, their synthetic methodologies are currently not accessible from …

Since its discovery in 2017, the fatty acid decarboxylase (FAP) photoenzyme has been the
focus of extensive research, given its ability to convert fatty acids into alka (e) nes using …

Most of the well‐known enzymes catalyzing esterification require the minimization of water
or activated substrates for activity. This work reports a new reaction catalyzed by carboxylic …

The current industrial production of polymer building blocks such as ε‐caprolactone (ε‐CL)
and 6‐hydroxyhexanoic acid (6HA) is a multi‐step process associated with critical …

Reduktionsreaktionen spielen eine zentrale Rolle in der organischen Chemie zur Synthese
chiraler Produkte. Insbesondere Enzyme katalysieren solche Reaktionen in hoher Stereo …
