Folding and selectivity: The noncyanogenic plant Arabidopsis thaliana contains a new hydroxynitrile lyase, which was cloned and characterized. This enzyme is readily available form a recombinant source, has a broad range of substrates, and enantioselectively transforms aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes as well as ketones into the corresponding R-cyanohydrins. (Chemical Equation Presented).
