Stereospecific formation of R-aromatic acyloins by Zymomonas mobilis pyruvate decarboxylase

Abstract

Recombinant pyruvate decarboxylase from Zymomonas mobilis catalysed the formation of R-aromatic acyloins of high optical purity from aromatic aldehydes and either pyruvate or acetaldehyde. The results are contrasted with those obtained with aliphatic acyloins and compared with those obtained with the pyruvate decarboxylase of Saccharomyces sp.
