Procedure

In a case in which 5 mM of L-phenylalanine was added to the culture medium, L-phenylalanine ceased to be detected after 24 hours of culture, and instead an equal level (5.7 mM) of D-3-phenyllactate had accumulated. This led to the conclusion that the present strain converts L-phenylalanine to D-3-phenyllactate. Specifically, it is thought that the present strain has an enzyme that produces optically active phenyllactate.
