Article Synopsis
  • Saturated heterocycles are important for drug development but are difficult to synthesize, especially in an asymmetric manner.* -
  • The study illustrates the use of imine reductases in tandem processes to create these heterocycles through both inter- and intramolecular reductive amination.* -
  • The approach enables the production of various unsubstituted and substituted heterocycles from simple materials in a single reaction under mild conditions, showcasing the versatility of imine reductases.*

Purpose: During the course of demyelinating inflammatory diseases, myelin-derived proteins, including myelin basic protein(MBP), are secreted into extracellular space. MBP shows extensive post-translational modifications, including deimination/citrullination. Deiminated MBP is structurally less ordered, susceptible to proteolytic attack, and more immunogenic than unmodified MBP.
