One-pot, single-step deracemization of 2-hydroxyacids by tandem biocatalytic oxidation and reduction

Abstract

A facile and efficient one-pot, single-step method for deracemizing a broad range of 2-hydroxyacids to (R)-2-hydroxyacids was established by combination of resting cells of an (S)-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase-producing microorganism and an (R)-ketoacid reductase-producing microorganism.
