Abstract
The potential utility of the l-lactate dehydrogenase of Bacillus stearothermophilus (BSLDH) for stereospecific, preparative-scale reductions of α-keto acids to (S)-α-hydroxy acids of> 99% ee has been demonstrated. BSLDH is a stable, thermophilic, enzyme whose gene has been cloned into a high-expression vector to assure its plentiful supply. Its specificity for keto acid substrates possessing straight-and branched-chain alkyl, cyclopropyl, or phenyl ...
