LITERATURE
additional information
by coculturing two Escherichia coli strains expressing LhDMDH and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from Lactobacillus casei, LcLDH, a system for the efficient synthesis of phenylglyoxylic acid (PGA) is developed, achieving a 60% theoretical yield and 99% purity without adding coenzyme or cosubstrate. Implementation of a promising strategy for the chiral resolution of racemic mandelic acid and the biosynthesis of PGA. Whole cell catalysis is a preferred option to eliminate the influence of low thermostability of enzyme LhDMDH in the biosynthesis of PGA
