Production of L-carnitine from D-carnitine by partially purified D- and L-carnitine dehydrogenase of Agrobacterium sp. 525a

摘要

D-Carnitine was converted to L-carnitine with partially purified D- and L-carnitine dehydrogenases from Agrobacterium sp. 525a. Using partially purified D- and L-carnitine dehydrogenases (pH 8.5 Tris-HCl buffer, 100 mM D-carnitine, 5 mM NAD(+), 2 mM glutathione), about 64% of the D-carnitine could be converted into L-carnitine.
