Anti-prelog reduction of prochiral carbonyl compounds by Oenococcus oeni in a biphasic system.

abstract：:Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) alpha and gamma are key regulators of lipid homeostasis and insulin resistance. In this study we show that a novel compound, 3-{4-[2-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-oxazol-4-yl)-ethoxy]-phenyl}- 2-[2-(2-nitro-phenoxy)-acetyl amino]-propionic acid (O325H), is an agonist with dual ...
