Summary
TheBrevibacterium sp. R 312 strain possesses a nitrile-hydratase and an amidase, both with a wide substrate spectrum. These two enzymes can be used for the bioconversion of nitriles into the corresponding organic acids: the actions of three types of compounds (nitriles, amides and acids) on the activity of the amidase are reported in the present work.
