Abstract
- A novel lactate dehydrogenase gene, named lrldh, was cloned from Lactobacillus rossiae and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. The lactate dehydrogenase LrLDH is NADH-dependent with a molecular weight of approximately 39 kDa. It is active at 40 °C and pH 6.5 and stable in a neutral to alkaline environment below 35 °C. The kinetic constants, including maximal reaction rate (V<subscript>max</subscript>), apparent Michaelis–Menten constant (K<subscript>m</subscript>), turnover number (K<subscript>cat</subscript>) and catalytic efficiency (K<subscript>cat</subscript>/K<subscript>m</subscript>) for phenylpyruvic acid were 1.95 U mg<superscript>−1</superscript>, 2.83 mM, 12.29 s<superscript>−1</superscript>, and 4.34 mM<superscript>−1</superscript> s<superscript>−1</superscript>, respectively. Using whole cells of recombinant E. coli/pET28a-lrldh, without coexpression of a cofactor regeneration system, 20.5 g l<superscript>−1</superscript>d-phenyllactic acid with ee above 99% was produced from phenylpyruvic acid in a fed-batch biotransformation process, with a productivity of 49.2 g l<superscript>−1</superscript> d<superscript>−1</superscript>. Moreover, LrLDH has broad substrate specificity to a range of ketones, keto acids and ketonic esters. Taken together, LrLDH is a promising biocatalyst for the efficient synthesis of d-phenyllactic acid and other fine chemicals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
