Abstract
The stereospecificities of 2-keto-4-pentenoate hydratase and 4-hydroxy-2-ketovalerate aldolase were studied in Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida, and Acinetobacter sp. Hydration was stereospecific in all three; however, only P. putida and Acinetobacter sp. showed stereospecificity in their aldolase reactions.
