A new keto reductase (ArQR), identified from Agrobacterium radiobacter ECU2556, can efficiently reduce 3-quinuclidinone in excellent enantioselectivity and high space-time yield for the synthesis of (R)-3-quinuclidinol, a chiral building block of many antimuscarinic agents. This is the first time that
