BioVerdant, Inc., 7330 Carroll Road, San Diego, CA 92121, USA) Abstract Biocatalysis is becoming a transformational technology for chemical synthesis as a result of recent breakthroughs in biotechnology exponential growth in publically available sequences from the gene database and protein data bank ( PDB), efficient molecular cloning and protein expression platforms, powerful directed enzyme evolution technologies to improve biocatalyst s specificity, selectivity and stability. In this review, the focus will be directed to its applications in drug manufacturing to deliver cost2effective chemoenzymatic processes, green chemistry to minimize the generation of wastes and usage of hazardous reagents, and natural product modification to discover novel therapeutics with improved biological profiles.
