摘要:
An (R)-2-amino-1-phenylethanol derivative shown by the general formula (IIa) ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.5 represent a hydrogen atom, etc.; R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 independently represent a halogen atom, etc., or a salt thereof, can readily be produced (1) by permitting a microorganism belonging to the genus Rhodosporidium, the genus Comamonas or the like to act on a mixture of corresponding (R)-form and (S)-form to asymmetrically utilize, or (2) by permitting a microorganism belonging to the genus Lodderomyces, the genus Pilimelia or the like to act on a corresponding aminoketone derivative to asymmetrically reduce. An (R,R)-1-phenyl-2-�(2-phenyl-1-alkylethyl) amino!ethanol derivative having a high optical purity can easily be obtained from the compound of the formula (IIa) or a salt thereof. Said derivative is useful as an intermediate for producing an anti-obesity agent and so on.

摘要:
The present invention provides a method for producing amide compounds using hydroxyl nitrile compounds and microorganisms and/or enzymatically active material having cyanide-resistant nitrile hydratase activity, e.g., Rhodococcus equi XL-l. Furthermore, the amide compounds can be produced while the enzymatic activity of this microorganism can be stably maintained during the reaction.

The present invention provide processes for producing an optically active quinuclidinol from a quinuclidinone using an asymmetric reduction by a microorganism and enzyme with commercial advantages in simple and easy manner. In the present invention, permit a microorganism or preparation thereof to act on a quinuclidinone (3-quinuclidinone), and recover or harvest an optically active quinuclidinol produced (3-quinuclidinol). The microorganisms capable of producing an (R)-3-quinuclidinol from a 3-quinuclidinone include the genus Nakazawaea, the genus Candida and the genus Proteus. The microorganisms capable of producing an (S)-3-quinuclidinol from a 3-quinuclidinone include the genus Arthrobacter, the genus Pseudomonas and the genus Rhodosporidium.
摘要:
An optically active 1,3-butanediol can be produced by either (1) treating a mixture of 1,3-butanediol enantiomers with a microorganism, which has been optionally treated, capable of asymmetrically assimilating said mixture, or (2) preparing a microorganism, which has been optionally treated, capable of asymmetrically reducing 4-hydroxy-2-butanone, and collecting optically active 1,3-butanediol.
摘要:
The present invention provides a novel D-aminoacylase, as well as method for producing a D-amino acid using the same. In order to achieve the above objective, the present inventors have succeeded in purifying heat-stable D-aminoacylase from microorganisms belonging to the genus Streptomyces by combining various purification methods. Furthermore, the present inventors found that the purified heat-stable D-aminoacylase is useful in industrial production of D-amino acids. By utilizing the heat-stable D-aminoacylase, it is possible to readily and efficiently produce the corresponding D-amino acids from N-acetyl-DL-amino acids (for example, N-acetyl-DL-methionine, N-acetyl-DL-valine, N-acetyl-DL-tryptophan, N-acetyl-DL-phenylalanine, N-acetyl-DL-alanine, N-acetyl-DL-leucine, and so on).
