Reaktionsschritte

Meanwhile, enzyme reaction product was measured as follows: 10 mg of scyllo-inosose, 40 mg of NADPH, and 10 U of the enzyme were allowed to react in 1.0 ml of 100 mM Tris buffer (pH 8.0) at 36° C. for 4 hours, and a heat treatment was performed at 80° C. for 10 min, followed by cooling. Then, 100 μl of a strong base cation exchange resin, 100 μl of a strong acid anion exchange resin, and 10 mg of activated carbon were added, and the mixture was stirred and centrifuged. Then, the supernatant was diluted 2-fold, and measurement was performed by HPLC (Shodex Asahipak NH2P-50 4E Φ 4.6×250 mm: Shodex) using an RI detector under conditions of a column temperature of 40° C. and a mobile phase flow rate of 1.5 ml (80% acetonitrile). As a result, the Atu4375 gene product and the Atu3234 gene product of Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58, the BG14057 gene product of Bacillus subtilis 168, the Xcc3438 gene product of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, and the Atu4375 gene product, and the Atu3234 gene product of AB10121 strain were found to have a high enzyme activity, and 100% of the product was scyllo-inositol obtained by the reduction, while myo-inositol that is an isomer thereof was not detected. As a result, recombinant enzymes derived from the above-mentioned genes were found to have a high scyllo-inositol dehydrogenase activity, and the gene products were scyllo-inositol dehydrogenase. Meanwhile, in the products obtained by the reduction reaction of scyllo-inosose, only scyllo-inositol was detected, and the enzymes were found to stereospecifically reduce scyllo-inosose into scyllo-inositol.
