ABSTRACT:
A process is disclosed for converting a peptide precursor of the ACV type, in which the valine moiety may be replaced by any readily available amino acid, to an unnatural cephalosporin of the type ##STR1## where R.sub.1 is H, lower alkyl or functionalized carboxylic group and R.sub.2 is H or lower alkyl, in which the precursor is reacted with cyclase, epimerase and a ring expansion enzyme isolated from a cell-free extract of a prokaryotic organism such as Streptomyces clavuligerus. The three enzymes may be immobilized on a suitable support medium and the conversion may be carried out in a continuous mode.
