Semi-rational engineering of a thermostable aldo–keto reductase from Thermotoga maritima for synthesis of enantiopure ethyl-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyrate (EHPB)

Abstract A novel aldo-keto reductase Tm1743 characterized from Thermotoga maritima was explored as an effective biocatalyst in chiral alcohol production. Natural Tm1743 catalyzes asymmetric reduction of ethyl 2-oxo-4-phenylbutyrate (EOPB) at high efficiency, but the production of, ethyl (S)-2-hydrox...
