Hydrolase catalyzed reactions are used for selective chemical catalysis. With directed evolution, rational mutations and molecular modeling the selectivity of these hydrolases can be increased and the origin of selectivity determined. This study investigates four selective hydrolase catalyzed reactions. Using molecular modeling the unusual regioselectivity of Pseudomonas cepacia lipase (PCL) and the selectivity of Candida antarctica B lipase (CAL-B) in nucleoside acylation reactions has been attributed to the binding of the nucleoside base within the active site. The enantio-selectivity of Pseudomonas fluorescens esterase (PFE) has been improved using a rational approach to directed evolution and models to explain the origin of imp...
