ENZYMATIC METHOD FOR PRODUCING 2-HYDROXY-4-METHYLMERCAPTOBUTANOIC ACID (MHA)
The invention relates to an enzymatic method for producing 2-hydroxy-4-methylmercaptobutanoic acid (HMBA, MHA) from 3-methylthio-propanal (3-methylmercaptopropanal (MMP) or "methional") and carbon dioxide using a decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1), its corresponding cofactor, an alcohol dehydrogenas...
