摘要：

Despite the increasinguseof biocatalysis for organic synthesis, there are currently no databasesthat adequately capture synthetic biotransformations. The lack ofa biocatalysis database prevents accelerating biocatalyst characterizationefforts from being leveraged to quickly identify candidate enzymesfor reactions or cascades, slowing their development. The RetroBioCatDatabase (available at retrobiocat.com) addresses this gap by capturing information on synthetic biotransformationsand providing an analysis platform that allows biocatalysis data tobe searched and explored through a range of highly interactive datavisualization tools. This database makes it simple to explore availableenzymes, their substrate scopes, and how characterized enzymes arerelated to each other and the wider sequence space. Data entry isfacilitated through an openly accessible curation platform, featuringautomated tools to accelerate the process. The RetroBioCat Databasedemocratizes biocatalysis knowledge and has the potential to acceleratebiocatalytic reaction development, making it a valuable resource forthe community.
