Description
The enzymes, characterized from bacteria (Peptoclostridium difficile, Enterococcus faecalis and from lactic acid bacteria) prefer substrates with a main chain of 5 carbons (such as 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate) to those with a shorter chain. It also utilizes phenylpyruvate. The enzyme from the halophilic archaeon Haloferax mediterranei prefers substrates with a main chain of 3-4 carbons (pyruvate and 2-oxobutanoate). cf. EC 1.1.1.272, (D)-2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase (NADP+).
