The demand ford-2-phenylglycine used to synthesize semisynthetic antibiotics and pesticides is increasing. We have isolated aChryseobacteriumsp. that selectively transformed thel-form of racemicd,l-2-phenylglycine to (2S)-2-acetylamide-2-phenylacetic acid with a molar yield of 50 % and an enantiomer excess of >99.5 % under optimal culture conditions, consequently resulting in 99 % pured-2-phenylglycine remaining in the culture. The enantioselectiveN-acetylation was catalyzed by an acetyl-CoA-dependentN-acetyltransferase whose synthesis was induced byl-2-phenylglycine. The enzyme differed from previously reported bacterial arylamineN-acetyltransferases in molecular mass and substrate specificity. The relative activity ratio of the enzyme with the substratesl-2-phenylglycine,d-2-phenylglycine, 2-(2-chlorophenyl)glycine, and 5-aminosalicylic acid (a good substrate of arylamineN-acetyltransferase) was 100:0:56.9:5.49, respectively. The biotransformation by theN-acetyltransferase-producing bacterium reported here could constitute a new preparative route for the enzymatic resolution ofd,l-2-phenylglycine.
