Reaktionsschritte

To the resting cells obtained, a reaction solution containing sodium phenylpyruvate in a final concentration of 100 mM, NADP in a final concentration of 0.2 mM, glucose in a final concentration of 100 mM, and methylamine-hydrochloric acid (pH 9) in a final concentration of 700 mM was added to achieve cell turbidity of 20 (absorbance at 660 nm). The reaction was conducted while stirring at 30° C. and adjusting pH to 8 to 9 with 10 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. The amount of N-methylphenylalanine produced after 24 hours of reaction was 13.4 g/L (reaction yield=75%).
