Abstract

PURPOSE:To stably produce alpha-keto-beta-methylvaleric acid having high optical purity at a low cost by preparing a cultured cell of a microorganism capable of converting L-isoleucine into an alpha-keto acid and reacting the cell (or its treated product) with L-isoleucine (salt) in an aqueous solution having a specific pH. CONSTITUTION:alpha-Keto-beta-methylvaleric acid suitable as a drug for liver, kidney, etc., can be produced by culturing a microorganism capable of converting L- isoleucine into an alpha-keto acid (preferably a strain belonging to genus Proteus, etc.) and reacting the obtained cell or its treated product with L-isoleucine or its salt in an aqueous solution having a pH of <=7.2.

Isoleucine has four types of optical isomers: L-isoleucine, L-alloisoleucine, D-isoleucine, and D-alloisoleucine. When they are converted to υ-α-keto acids through oxidative deamination using enzymatic reactions, L-isoleucine, D-iso, and leucine are converted to d-α-keto-β-methylvalerate, L-allo From isoleucine, D-alloisomerase, and isine, C=α-ge1·-β-methylvaleric acid is formed as ζL. However, it is known that its optical activity is easily lost.
