Abstract:
Provided is a process for the preparation of L-methionine in an enzymatic reaction utilizing dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) a precursor of L-methionine, and an organic reducing compound. In the process, methyl mercaptan can be formed by the enzymatic hydrogenolysis of the DMDS.

Claim (Index 24):
The process of  claim 23 , comprising:\n (1) preparing an L-methionine precursor, (2) enzymatically reducing of DMDS in a first reactor with formation of methyl mercaptan leaving the first reactor, (3) enzymatically synthesizing L-methionine in a second reactor with the precursor from (1) and the methyl mercaptan from (2), optionally forming gluconolactone, (4) optionally, recycling the gluconolactone formed in (3) into (1), and (5) recovering and optionally purifying the L-methionine.
