Abstract
A method for the resolution of .alpha.-tertiary carboxylic acid esters by partial hydrolysis is disclosed. The partial hydrolysis is carried out by contacting the esters with an aqueous solution in the presence of a serine carboxypeptidase, and the hydrolysis product is separated from unreacted starting material to obtain the hydrolysis product or the unreacted starting material in enantiomerically enriched form. A novel ester hydrolase which is particularly useful in this method, and a nucleotide sequence encoding this enzyme, are also described.
