Abstract
An objective of the present invention is to provide a D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase. Another objective of the present invention is to provide a gene which encodes the D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase. A D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase according to the present invention is a protein comprising an amino acid sequence of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 or a modified amino acid sequence of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 that has one or more modifications selected from a substitution, a deletion, an addition and an insertion and has D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase activity. A D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase gene according to the present invention comprises a nucleotide sequence which encodes the D-phenyllactic acid dehydrogenase, for example the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.
