A new enzymatic process for the enantioselective cleavage of N ‐benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) groups from protected amino acids and related compounds has been developed. The Cbz‐deprotecting enzyme was isolated from cell extracts of Sphingomonas paucimobilis SC 16113 and purified to homogeneity. The purified protein has a molecular weight of 155,000 daltons and a subunit size of 44,000 daltons.
