Catalytic and Biocatalytic Methods for the Efficient Synthesis of Biologically Relevant Non-Proteinogenic Amino Acids

by Anke Lemke

Non-proteinogenic amino acids are often important constituents of biologically potent natural products. The synthesis of these amino acids is often time-consuming, non-trivial and not sustainable. Thus, the central topic of this work was the formation of unusual amino acid structures by biocatalytic and catalytic methods. For the elucidation of the biosynthetic pathway of Streptomyces-produced muraymycins and related natural products, a 'biosynthetic...
