The present invention provides a carbonyl reductase having the activity of reducing a carbonyl group-containing compound to convert the compound into an optically active compound, and a production method of an optically active compound using the enzyme. Specifically, a carbonyl reductase having one or more mutations in which the 54th aspartic acid, the 157th methionine, the 170th alanine, the 211th isoleucine, the 214th methionine, and the 249th methionine are each substituted by other specific amino acid in the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or a homologue of the amino acid sequence, and a production method of an optically active compound using the same are provided.

Disclosed are a ketoreductase mutant and a method for producing a chiral alcohol. The ketoreductase mutant has an amino acid sequence obtained by the mutation of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and the mutation includes a mutation siteK200H. In the present disclosure, the mutant obtained by mutation takes a ketone compound as a raw material, the chiral alcohol may be efficiently produced by stereoselective reduction, and the stability is greatly improved, which is suitable for popularization and application to the industrial production of the chiral alcohol.
