additional information though the enzyme exhibits activity toward both classes of aromatic and arylacetonitriles, the nitrilase shows higher activity toward the arylacetonitriles, substrate specificity and substrate docking study, overview. No activity toward aminobutytonitrile, 2,2-dimethylcyclopropyl cyanide, and 2-amino-2,3-dimethylbutanenitrile, very low activity toward 4-aminobenzonitrile and iminodiacetonitrile, overview Alcaligenes faecalis ?
