Structure and mechanism of acetolactate decarboxylase [PDF]

, 2013
Acetolactate decarboxylase catalyzes the conversion of both enantiomers of acetolactate to the (R)-enantiomer of acetoin, via a mechanism that has been shown to involve a prior rearrangement of the non-natural (R)-enantiomer substrate to the natural (S ...

Conversion of Enantiomers during the Separation of Acetoin from Fermentation Broth

Fermentation, 2022
Acetoin (AC) is an important platform compound with two enantiomers (R)-AC and (S)-AC. Due to its unique spatial structure, optically pure AC has particularly high application in asymmetric synthesis.

Efficient (3S)-Acetoin and (2S,3S)-2,3-Butanediol Production from meso-2,3-Butanediol Using Whole-Cell Biocatalysis

Molecules, 2018
(3S)-Acetoin and (2S,3S)-2,3-butanediol are important platform chemicals widely applied in the asymmetric synthesis of valuable chiral chemicals. However, their production by fermentative methods is difficult to perform.
