Figure 2

Whole cell-catalyzed reduction of ethyl 4-cyanobenzoylformate by E. coli XR_FDH. The analytical yield is given and expressed as concentration of ethyl 4-cyanomandelate formed from the initial substrate concentration. Conditions are indicated by symbols: [substrate] = 500 mM, [cells] = 40 gCDW/L; [substrate] = 100 mM, [cells] = 40 gCDW/L; ▲ [substrate] = 100 mM, [cells] = 20 gCDW/L; Δ [substrate] = 100 mM, [cells] = 5 gCDW/L; ■ [substrate] = 10 mM, [cells] = 5 gCDW/L.
