ABSTRACT Penicillium citrinum was found to catalyze the reduction of methyl 4-bromo-3-oxobutyrate to methyl (S)-4-bromo-3-hydroxybutyrate [(S)-BHBM] with high optical purity. From the strain, a cDNA clone encoding a novel NADPH-dependent alkyl 4-halo-3-oxobutyrate reductase (KER) was isolated. Escherichia coli cells overexpressing KER produced (S)-BHBM in the presence of an NADPH-regeneration system.

S)-tert-butyl 3-hydroxybutyrate was synthesized by asymmetric reduction of tert-butyl acetoacetate with Saccharomyces cerevisiae B5 as catalyst. The enantiometric excess of (S)-tert-butyl 3-hydroxybutyrate increased with addition of more amount of substrate. High optical purity of product can be obtained when 6 g/L chloroform was used as inhibitor. The optimum reduction time, temperature, and initial pH of reaction mixture were 60 h, 30 °C, and 6.2. Addition of more biomass and lower amount of substrate helped to get high conversion. Conversion and enantiometric excess of product reached 100% when initial substrate concentration and biomass were 2.0 g/L and 140 g/L with 6 g/L chloroform as inhibitor.
