d-Pantolactone is a key chiral intermediate for the synthesis of d-pantothenic acid and its derivatives. Biocatalytic kinetic resolution of d,l-pantoyl lactone using d-lactonase is an efficient route to synthesize d-pantolactone. In this study, we report the expression of a novel d-lactonase TSDL in Escherichia coli host. The recombinant TSDL exhibited high hydrolysis activity and enantioselectivity toward d-pantolactone. The reaction conditions of the recombinant TSDL-catalyzed kinetic resolution of d,l-pantolactone was systematically investigated by whole cell biocatalysis. In addition, a preparative-scale reaction for bioproduction of d-pantoic acid was examined under optimized reaction conditions. This study presented an alternative enzymatic process for kinetic resolution of d,l-pantolactone.
