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.

The invention relates to a novel chiral open-chain pyridoxamine catalyst and a synthesis method and application thereof. The structural general formula of the pyridoxamine catalyst is shown in the specification, wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 are one of hydrogen, C1-24 alkyl, C1-24 alkyl containing substituent groups, substances shown in the specification and halogen, the substituent groups on C1-24 alkyl are a substance shown in the specification or a substance shown in the specification or a substance shown in the specification or O-Rw or S-Rw' or halogen, and Rx, Rx', Ry, Ry', Ry'', Rz, Rz', Rw and Rw' are one of hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, tertiary butyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl, phenyl, benzyl, (1-phenyl)ethyl, 1-naphthyl, 2-naphthyl and halogen. Compared with the prior art, the pyridoxamine catalyst can achieve rapid and efficient synthesis of chiral amino acid, the preparation raw materials are easy to obtain, reaction conditions are mild, cost is low, and when the novel chiral open-chain pyridoxamine catalyst is used for a transamination reaction, the conditions are mild, and the reaction is stable.

A new type of chiral pyridoxamines bearing an adjacent chiral stereocenter has been developed via multi-step synthesis. The pyridoxamines displayed catalytic activity in asymmetric transamination of α-keto acids to give a variety of optically active amino acids in 27–78% yields with 34–62% ee's under very mild conditions. This work provides a synthetic strategy to construct new chiral pyridoxamines using bromopyridine 7 as a key synthon and also represents an early example of the applications of chiral pyridoxamines in asymmetric catalysis.

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.
Enantioselective scavenging using homogenate of Rhodotorula graminis: a facile preparation of d-amino acid derivatives in enantiopure form
Zhang, Zizhang
body text, p. 6468 - 6470 (2009/04/06)
An enantioselective scavenger (ES) comprised homogenate of Rhodotorula graminis containing multiple enzymes can enantioselectively remove l-enantiomer in a racemic mixture of amino acid derivatives (AADs), yielding d-enantiomer in high ee. Thirteen non-proteinogenic AADs were produced in enantiopure d form. The method appears to be an efficient cleaning and preparative strategy which can be applied to the production of d-AADs in high ee by enantioselectively scavenging the 'l-contaminants'.
