Abstract: | In this study, a novel strain of Pichia jadinii, HBY61, capable of the biocatalysis of 4-hydroxy-2-butanone (4H2B) to (R)-1,3-BD was isolated. HBY61 produced (R)-1,3-BD with high activity and absolute stereochemical selectivity (100 % e.e). Glucose and beef extract were found to be the key factors governing the fermentation, and their optimal concentrations were determined to be 84.2 and 43.7 g/L, respectively. The optimal bioconversion conditions of 4H2B catalyzed by HBY61 were pH 7.4, 30 °C, and 250 rpm with 6 % (v/v) glucose as the co-substrate. Accordingly, when 45 g/L of 4H2B was divided into three equal parts and added successively into the system at set time intervals, the maximum (R)-1,3-BD concentration reached 38.3 g/L with high yield (85.1 %) and strict 100 % enantioselectivity. Compared with previously reported yields for the biocatalytic production of (R)-1,3-BD, the use of strain HBY61 provided a high yield with excellent stereoselectivity. |
