Abstract
1,4-Butanediol is shown to be an efficient cosubstrate to promote NAD(P)H-dependent redox biocatalysis. The thermodynamically and kinetically inert lactone coproduct makes the regeneration reaction irreversible. Thereby not only the molar surplus of cosubstrate is dramatically reduced but also faster reaction rates are obtained.
1,4-Butanediol effectively promotes NAD(P)H-dependent redox biocatalysis, resulting in faster reaction rates and reduced molar surplus.
