Efficient Biosynthesis of Ethyl (R)‐3‐Hydroxyglutarate through a One‐Pot Bienzymatic Cascade of Halohydrin Dehalogenase and Nitrilase

Abstract The front cover artwork for Issue 09/2015 is provided by the Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (P.R. China), the Tianjin University of Science & Technology (P.R. China), and Hebei Chengxin Co., Ltd (P.R. China). The image shows two one‐pot processes for the bienzymatic synthesis of ethyl ( R )‐3‐hydroxyglutarate (EHG), a key intermediate for the synthesis of rosuvastatin, from ethyl ( S )‐4‐chloro‐3‐hydroxybutyrate (ECHB).
