  • Applications

    Aminoacylase (CAS 9012-37-7) is used as a biocatalyst in industrial processing to perform enantioselective hydrolysis of N-acyl amino acids or related substrates, enabling the production of optically pure amino acids and derivatives for pharmaceutical manufacturing. It is commonly evaluated for chiral resolution steps in pharmaceutical intermediates and fine chemicals. It also supports the synthesis of amino acid derivatives and peptide building blocks, contributing to drug development and specialty chemicals. In process development, aminoacylase is considered for research and scale-up integration into biocatalytic platforms.
