Abstract: | Selective biocatalyzed synthesis of 2'-deoxyadenosine from 2'-deoxypyrimidine nucleosides was carried out using free or immobilized whole cells. The reaction was performed at 57 degrees C without secondary reactions. Two psychrotrophic microorganisms, Bacillus psychrosaccharolyticus and Psychrobacter immobilis, are described for the first time as active and specific strains for the synthesis of 2'-deoxyadenosine. Adenosine deaminase activity was not detected. Whole cells were immobilized in different matrixes. Calcium alginate and calcium pectate gave the best biocatalysts. The synthesis of 2'-deoxyadenosine follows an apparent first order kinetic expression. External mass transfer control was negligible as deduced from k(s), N(A), and Omega values. Internal mass transfer was the rate controlling step according to eta(T) and phi values. |
