(57) An object of the present invention is to provide a means for producing an optically
active tropic acid that is a compound useful as a synthetic raw material or an intermediate
for pharmaceutical products and the like. The present invention provides a novel polypeptide
having activity to (R)-selectively hydrolyze a racemic tropic acid amide, DNA encoding
the polypeptide, a vector containing the DNA, a transformant prepared by transformation
with the vector, and a method for producing an optically active carboxylic acid amide
and an optically active carboxylic acid using them.
