A novel phenylalanine ammonia-lyase from Pseudozyma antarctica for stereoselective biotransformations of unnatural amino acids
A novel phenylalanine ammonia-lyase of the psychrophilic yeast Pseudozyma antarctica (PzaPAL) was identified by screening microbial genomes against known PAL sequences. PzaPAL has a significantly different substrate binding pocket with an extended loop (26 aa long) connected to the aromatic ring binding region of the active site as compared to the known PALs from eukaryotes. The general properties of recombinant PzaPAL expressed in E. coli were characterized including kinetic features of this novel PAL with L-phenylalanine (S)-1a and further racemic substituted phenylalanines rac-1b-g,k. In most cases, PzaPAL revealed significantly higher turnover numbers than the PAL from Petroselinum crispum (PcPAL). Finally, the biocatalytic performance of PzaPAL and PcPAL was compared in the kinetic resolutions of racemic phenylalanine derivatives (rac-1a-s) by enzymatic ammonia elimination and also in the enantiotope selective ammonia addition reactions to cinnamic acid derivatives (2a-s). The enantiotope selectivity of PzaPAL with o-, m-, p-fluoro-, o-, p-chloro- and o-, m-bromo-substituted cinnamic acids proved to be higher than that of PcPAL.

Colony-wise Analysis of a Theonella swinhoei Marine Sponge with a Yellow Interior Permitted the Isolation of Theonellamide i
There are several examples of marine organisms whose metabolic profiles differ among conspecifics inhabiting the same region. We have analyzed the metabolic profile of each colony of a Theonella swinhoei marine sponge with a yellow interior and noticed the patchy distribution of one metabolite. This compound was isolated and its structure was studied by a combination of spectrometric analyses and chemical degradation, showing it to be a congener in the theonellamide class of bicyclic peptides. Theonellamides had previously been isolated by us only from T. swinhoei with a white interior and not from those with a yellow interior.

Engineered Aminotransferase for the Production of d-Phenylalanine Derivatives Using Biocatalytic Cascades
d-Phenylalanine derivatives are valuable chiral building blocks for a wide range of pharmaceuticals. Here, we developed stereoinversion and deracemization biocatalytic cascades to synthesize d-phenylalanine derivatives that contain electron-donating or -withdrawing substituents of various sizes and at different positions on the phenyl ring with a high enantiomeric excess (90 to >99 % ee) from commercially available racemic mixtures or l-amino acids. These whole-cell systems couple Proteus mirabilis l-amino acid deaminase with an engineered aminotransferase that displays native-like activity towards d-phenylalanine, which we generated from Bacillus sp. YM-1 d-amino acid aminotransferase. Our cascades are applicable to preparative-scale synthesis and do not require cofactor-regeneration systems or chemical reducing agents.

Biocatalytic stereoinversion of d-: Para -bromophenylalanine in a one-pot three-enzyme reaction
Halogenated derivatives of phenylalanine can be used as cross-coupling reagents for making drug-like molecules, and pure enantiomers of these precursors are therefore highly desirable. In our exploration of enzymatic routes to simplify the deracemisation process, the application of two enzymes, d-amino acid transaminase and phenylalanine dehydrogenase, both from Lysinibacillus sphaericus, has given promising results for the stereo-inversion of d-enantiomers of para-bromophenylalanine as the model substrate and also p-chloro/fluorophenylalanine and tyrosine. The addition of a coenzyme recycling system using ethanol and alcohol dehydrogenase reduced the amount of coenzyme needed for the reaction catalysed by phenylalanine dehydrogenase, reducing cost and permitting efficient and complete conversion of the racemic amino acids to the l-enantiomer. Relative proportions of the enzymes were optimized. The high purity of the l-enantiomer, with an ee over 99%, and the ease of the process make it an ideal alternative for deracemisation of the studied compounds.

Kinetic Resolution of Aromatic β-Amino Acids Using a Combination of Phenylalanine Ammonia Lyase and Aminomutase Biocatalysts
An enzymatic strategy for the preparation of (R)-β-arylalanines employing phenylalanine aminomutase and ammonia lyase (PAM and PAL) enzymes has been demonstrated. Candidate PAMs with the desired (S)-selectivity from Streptomyces maritimus (EncP) and Bacillus sp. (PabH) were identified via sequence analysis using a well-studied template sequence. The newly discovered PabH could be linked to the first ever proposed biosynthesis of pyloricidin-like secondary metabolites and was shown to display better β-lyase activity in many cases. In spite of this, a method combining the higher conversion of EncP with a strict α-lyase from Anabaena variabilis (AvPAL) was found to be more amenable, allowing kinetic resolution of five racemic substrates and a preparative-scale reaction with >98% (R) enantiomeric excess. This work represents an improved and enantiocomplementary method to existing biocatalytic strategies, allowing simple product separation and modular telescopic combination with a preceding chemical step using an achiral aldehyde as starting material.

Telescopic one-pot condensation-hydroamination strategy for the synthesis of optically pure L-phenylalanines from benzaldehydes
A chemo-enzymatic telescopic approach was designed for the synthesis of L-arylalanines in high yield and optical purity, starting from commercially available and inexpensive substituted benzaldehydes. The method exploits a chemical Knoevenagel–Doebner condensation (optimised to give complete conversions in a short reaction time, employing microwave irradiation) and a biocatalytic phenylalanine ammonia lyase mediated hydroamination (for the stereoselective addition of ammonia). The two reactions can be run sequentially in one pot, bringing together the advantages of chemical and biological catalysis. The preparative applicability was demonstrated with the synthesis of five L-dihalophenylalanines (71–84% yield, 98–99% ee) of relevance as molecular probes, for medicinal chemistry and for the synthesis of pharmaceutical ingredients.

Engineering of phenylalanine ammonia lyase from Rhodotorula graminis for the enhanced synthesis of unnatural L-amino acids
Phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) catalyses the reversible non-oxidative deamination of phenylalanine to trans-cinnamic acid and ammonia. Analogues of L-phenylalanine are incorporated as pharmacophores in several peptidomimetic drug molecules and are therefore of particular interest to the fine chemical industry. PAL from Rhodotorula graminis (RgrPAL) has shown an ability to accept analogues of L-phenylalanine. Our aim was to increase enzymatic activity with directed evolution towards a specific non-natural substrate through the cloning and over-production of PAL in Escherichia coli. The identified variants of RgrPAL with significantly showed more catalytic efficient compared to the wild-type enzyme. These variants were used in a preparative scale biotransformation resulting in a 94% conversion to L-4-Br-phenylalanine (>99% ee).

Synthesis of Fmoc-Protected Arylphenylalanines (Bip Derivatives) via Nonaqueous Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling Reactions
A one-step synthesis of Fmoc-protected aryl/heteroaryl-substituted phenylalanines (Bip derivatives) using the nonaqueous palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling (SMC) reaction of Fmoc-protected bromo- or iodophenylalanines is reported. This protocol allows for the direct formation of a variety of unnatural biaryl-containing amino acids in good to excellent yield, which can be readily used in subsequent Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis. The synthetic utility of this method is also demonstrated by the SMC reaction of bromophenylalanine-containing tripeptides.

Influence of the aromatic moiety in α- And β-arylalanines on their biotransformation with phenylalanine 2,3-aminomutase from: Pantoea agglomerans
In this study enantiomer selective isomerization of various racemic α- and β-arylalanines catalysed by phenylalanine 2,3-aminomutase from Pantoea agglomerans (PaPAM) was investigated. Both α- and β-arylalanines were accepted as substrates when the aryl moiety was relatively small, like phenyl, 2-, 3-, 4-fluorophenyl or thiophen-2-yl. While 2-substituted α-phenylalanines bearing bulky electron withdrawing substituents did not react, the corresponding substituted β-aryl analogues were converted rapidly. Conversion of 3- and 4-substituted α-arylalanines happened smoothly, while conversion of the corresponding β-arylalanines was poor or non-existent. In the range of pH 7-9 there was no significant influence on the conversion of racemic α- or β-(thiophen-2-yl)alanines, whereas increasing the concentration of ammonia (ammonium carbonate from 50 to 1000 mM) inhibited the isomerization progressively and decreased the amount of the by-product (i.e. (E)-3-(thiophen-2-yl)acrylic acid was detected). In all cases, the high ee values of the products indicated excellent enantiomer selectivity and stereospecificity of the isomerization except for (S)-2-nitro-α-phenylalanine (ee 92%) from the β-isomer. Substituent effects were rationalized by computational modelling revealing that one of the main factors controlling biocatalytic activity was the energy difference between the covalent regioisomeric enzyme-substrate complexes.

Synthesis of six phenylalanine derivatives and their cell toxicity effect on human colon cancer cell line HT-29
Some phenylalanine (Phe) derivatives had important roles in pharmacology and may be used as pharmaceutical materials and pharmaceutical intermediates. In order to understand the cell toxicity of phenylalanine derivatives, we synthesized L-4-bromo-phenylalanine (Brp), L-4-iodophenylalanine (Ip), L-4-nitro-phenylalanine (Np), L-4-sulfonic-phenylalanine (Sp), L-4-phosphophenylalanine (Pp) and L-4-amino-phenylalanine (Np). We used mass spectrometry (MS), Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) or hydrogen-1 nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum (1H-NMR), and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to test the correction of these products, MTT assay and Hoechst 33258 staining to detect their cell toxic effect on human colon cancer cell HT-29 (HT-29 cells). The results showed that these products were correct and the cytotoxicity of Pp>Ip>Sp and Np>Brp, Ap almost had no effect on HT-29 cells. In addition, Pp, Ip and Sp induced cell apoptosis, the other three kinds of phenylalanine derivatives induced neither apoptosis nor necrosis.

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Optically Pure l- and d-Biarylalanines through Biocatalytic Asymmetric Amination and Palladium-Catalyzed Arylation
A chemoenzymatic approach was developed and optimized for the synthesis of a range of N-protected nonnatural l- and d-biarylalanine derivatives. Starting from 4-bromocinnamic acid and 4-bromophenylpyruvic acid using a phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) and an evolved d-amino acid dehydrogenase (DAADH), respectively, both enantiomers of 4-bromophenylalanine were obtained and subsequently coupled with a panel of arylboronic acids to give the target compounds in high yield and optical purity under mild aqueous conditions.

The bacterial ammonia lyase EncP: A tunable biocatalyst for the synthesis of unnatural amino acids
Enzymes of the class I lyase-like family catalyze the asymmetric addition of ammonia to arylacrylates, yielding high value amino acids as products. Recent examples include the use of phenylalanine ammonia lyases (PALs), either alone or as a gateway to deracemization cascades (giving (S)- or (R)-α-phenylalanine derivatives, respectively), and also eukaryotic phenylalanine aminomutases (PAMs) for the synthesis of the (R)-β-products. Herein, we present the investigation of another family member, EncP from Streptomyces maritimus, thereby expanding the biocatalytic toolbox and enabling the production of the missing (S)-β-isomer. EncP was found to convert a range of arylacrylates to a mixture of (S)-α- and (S)-β-arylalanines, with regioselectivity correlating to the strength of electron-withdrawing/-donating groups on the ring of each substrate. The low regioselectivity of the wild-type enzyme was addressed via structure-based rational design to generate three variants with altered preference for either α- or β-products. By examining various biocatalyst/substrate combinations, it was demonstrated that the amination pattern of the reaction could be tuned to achieve selectivities between 99:1 and 1:99 for β:α-product ratios as desired.

Herein the efficient kinetic resolution of non-natural alpha-amino acids catalyzed by lipase AS 'Amano' via cleaving the amide bond is reported. The starting materials were the corresponding amino acid amides and the amino acids were generated with ees of up to 99% with E values of >600. These results indicated that the lipase AS 'Amano' could be a powerful amide hydrolase for the kinetic resolution of amino acid starting from the corresponding amino acid amides.

Enzymatic synthesis of chiral phenylalanine derivatives by a dynamic kinetic resolution of corresponding amide and nitrile substrates with a multi-enzyme system
Mutant α-amino-ε-caprolactam (ACL) racemase (L19V/L78T) from Achromobacter obae with improved substrate specificity toward phenylalaninamide was obtained by directed evolution. The mutant ACL racemase and thermostable mutant D-amino acid amidase (DaaA) from Ochrobactrum anthropi SV3 co-expressed in Escherichia coli (pACLmut/pDBFB40) were utilized for synthesis of (R)-phenylalanine and non-natural (R)-phenylalanine derivatives (4-OH, 4-F, 3-F, and 2-F-Phe) by dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR). Recombinant E. coli with DaaA and mutant ACL racemase genes catalyzed the synthesis of (R)-phenylalanine with 84% yield and 99% ee from (RS)-phenylalaninamide (400 mM) in 22 h. (R)-Tyrosine and 4-fluoro-(R)-phenylalanine were also efficiently synthesized from the corresponding amide compounds. We also co-expresed two genes encoding mutant ACL racemase and L-amino acid amidase from Brevundimonas diminuta in E. coli and performed the efficient production of various (S)-phenylalanine derivatives. Moreover, 2-aminophenylpropionitrile was converted to (R)-phenylalanine by DKR using a combination of the non-stereoselective nitrile hydratase from recombinamt E. coli and mutant ACL racemase and DaaA from E. coli encoding mutant ACL racemase and DaaA genes.

Phenylalanine aminomutase-catalyzed addition of ammonia to substituted cinnamic acids: A route to enantiopure α- and β-amino acids
(Chemical Equation Presented) An approach is described for the synthesis of aromatic α- and β-amino acids that uses phenylalanine aminomutase to catalyze a highly enantioselective addition of ammonia to substituted cinnamic acids. The reaction has a broad scope and yields substituted α- and β-phenylalanines with excellent enantiomeric excess. The regioselectivity of the conversion is determined by substituents present at the aromatic ring. A box model for the enzyme active site is proposed, derived from the influence of the hydrophobicity of substituents on the enzyme affinity toward various substrates.

Chemistry of unprotected amino acids in aqueous solution: Direct bromination of aromatic amino acids with bromoisocyanuric acid sodium salt under strong acidic condition
Brominations of unprotected aromatic amino acids such as phenylalanine, tyrosine, and glycine, with bromoisocyanuric acid mono sodium salt (BICA-Na) were conducted in 60% aq. H2SO4 at 0°C to give a mixture of mono-brominated products in good yield. Unexpectedly, meta-bromophenylglycine was obtained as main product accompanied by ortho- and para-substituted products, while phenylalanine gave only ortho- and para-substituted products. Bromination of 2-phenylethylamine or benzylamine showed a tendency similar to the corresponding amino acids.

Resolution of non-protein amino acids via the microbial protease-catalyzed enantioselective hydrolysis of their N-unprotected esters
In the Aspergillus oryzae protease-catalyzed ester hydrolysis, substitution of N-unprotected amino acid esters for the corresponding N-protected amino acid esters resulted in a large enhancement of the hydrolysis rate, while the enantioselectivity was deteriorated strikingly when the substrates employed were the conventional methyl esters. This difficulty was overcome by employing esters bearing a longer alkyl chain such as the isobutyl ester. Utilizing this ester, amino acids carrying an aromatic side chain were resolved with excellent enantioselectivities (E=50 to >200). With amino acids bearing an aliphatic side chain also, good results in terms of the hydrolysis rate and enantioselectivity were obtained by employing such an ester as the isobutyl ester. Moreover, the enantioselectivity proved to be enhanced further by conducting the reaction at low temperature. This procedure was applicable to the case where the enantioselectivity was not high enough even by the use of the isobutyl ester.
