  • Patent number: 8580555
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides engineered halohydrin dehalogenase (HHDH) polypeptides having improved enzyme properties as compared to the wild-type HHDH enzyme HheC and other reference engineered HHDH polypeptides. Also provided are polynucleotides encoding the engineered HHDH enzymes, host cells capable of expressing the engineered HHDH enzymes, and methods of using the engineered HHDH enzymes to synthesize a variety of chiral compounds including chiral epoxides and chiral alcohols.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 20, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 12, 2013
    Assignee: Codexis, Inc.
    Inventors: Erik De Vries, Louis Clark, Scott McVicar, Erika Segraves, Shiwei Song, Kheng Lin Tan
