Biotechnology Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Immobilised Penicillin G acylase from E. coli hydrolyses penicillin and cephalosporin derivatives protected at the carboxy group as the phenylacetoxymethylene esters. The corresponding hydrolysis of penicillin V retains the phenoxyacetyl moiety. Kinetic data of the hydrolysis are reported.
