Process for producing substance PF1022 from a host which expresses a D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase

摘要

A D-phenyllactate dehydrogenase which is a protein having the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:2 or an amino acid sequence derived therefrom by one or more modifications selected from among substitution, deletion, addition and insertion, and having a D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase activity. A gene comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding the D-phenyllactate dehydrogenase, for example, the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1.
