Application

Application Comment Organism
industry biotransformation of nitrile. Nitrile hydratase from Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1 is used for industrial production of acrylamide and nicotinamide. Production of enzyme by recombinant Escherichia coli is superior to that in R. rhodochrous J1. Genetically engineered Escherichia coli can be used for industrial applications instead of Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1. High-molecular weight nitrile hydratase may be more suitable for industrial application than low-molecular weight nitrile hydratase because of its higher product tolerance, which would lead to a high product concentration Rhodococcus rhodochrous
