Rhodococcus ATCC 39484 produced a nitrilase when induced with isovaleronitrile. The enzyme was obtainable pure in milligram amounts, had a subunit Mr of 40 kDa, and demonstrated a substrate-induced activation related to aggregation of subunits to form a 560-kDa complex.

A new type of nitrilase, arylacetonitrilase, has been purified from isovaleronitrile-induced cells of Alcaligenes faecalis JM3 in four steps. The purity of the enzyme was confirmed by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, ampholyte electrofocusing and double immunodiffusion in agarose. The enzyme has

Nitrilases are widely distributed in nature and are able to hydrolyze nitriles into their corresponding carboxylic acids and ammonia. In industry, nitrilases have been used as green biocatalysts for the production of high value-added products. To date, biocatalysts are considered
