Candida antarctica lipase B chemically immobilized on epoxy-activated micro- and nanobeads: catalysts for polyester synthesis.

abstract：:Solid-state NMR is especially useful when the structures of peptides and proteins should be analyzed by taking into account the structural distribution, that is, the distribution of the torsion angle of the individual residue. In this study, two-dimensional spin-diffusion solid-state NMR spectra of 13C-double-labeled ...
