This lesson will illustrate the use of lipases, esterases & acylase enzymes in the resolution of enantiomers, and the use of glycosidases & glycosyl transferases in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates.

By the end of this lesson, you should

  1. understand the use of enzymes in resolution of enantiomers
  2. understand the use of glycosidases & glycosyl transferases in synthesis of carbohydrates
