摘要
A rationale is presented as to why the enantioselectivity of enzymes in dry organic media towards specific substrates is increased when the enzyme flexibility is increased. This is outlined for serine proteases towards N-acetyl-amino acid esters. The reasons why this relationship does not hold in the case of non-specific substrates are discussed.
