Abstract
The present invention relates to an isolated nucleotide sequence and corresponding polypeptide derived from the nitrile-metabolising Pantoea strain deposited under NCIMB 41854. Said isolated polypeptide acts as a nitrilase and the invention extends to a process for producing a carboxylic acid using said isolated polypeptide to metabolise nitriles such as 3-hydroxyglutaronitrile, 3-hydroxybutyronitrile and 3- hydroxy-phenylpropionitrile to form corresponding carboxylic acids.
