A novel gene (<i>crc1</i>) from <i>Candida boidinii</i> was cloned and then overexpressed in a recombinant strain BL21(DE3)/pET30a-crc1 of <i>Escherichia coli</i>. The resulting carbonyl reductase was prepared through fermentations using the recombinant strain. The purified enzyme showed an NADPH-dependent activity and specific activity was 4.65 U/mg using <i>t</i>-butyl 6-cyano-(5<i>R</i>)-hydroxy-3-oxohexanoate (ATS-6) as substrate. The enzyme was optimally active at 35 °C and pH 7, respective ...[more]
