d-Amino acids are key intermediates required for the synthesis of important pharmaceuticals. However, establishing a universal enzymatic method for the general synthesis of d-amino acids from cheap and readily available precursors with few by-products is challenging. In this study, we constructed and optimized a cascade enzymatic route involving l-amino acid deaminase and d-amino acid dehydrogenase for the biocatalytic stereoinversions of l-amino acids into d-amino acids. Using l-phenylalanine (l-Phe) as a model substrate, this artificial biocatalytic cascade stereoinversion route first deaminates l-Phe to phenylpyruvic acid (PPA) through catalysis involving recombinant Escherichia coli cells that express l-amino acid deaminase from Proteus mirabilis (PmLAAD), followed by stereoselective reductive amination with recombinant meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase from Symbiobacterium thermophilum (StDAPDH) to produce d-phenylalanine (d-Phe). By incorporating a formate dehydrogenase-based NADPH-recycling system, d-Phe was obtained in quantitative yield with an enantiomeric excess greater than 99%. In addition, the cascade reaction system was also used to stereoinvert a variety of aromatic and aliphatic l-amino acids to the corresponding d-amino acids by combining the PmLAAD whole-cell biocatalyst with the StDAPDH variant. Hence, this method represents a concise and efficient route for the asymmetric synthesis of d-amino acids from the corresponding l-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.

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.

The mimics of vitamin B6-dependent enzymes that catalyzed an enantioselective full transamination in the pure aqueous phase have been realized for the first time through the establishment of a new “pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP) catalyzed non-covalent cyclodextrin (CD)-keto acid inclusion complexes” system, and various optically active amino acids have been obtained.
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.

Described here is an advanced, general method for purely chemical dynamic thermodynamic resolution and S/R interconversion of unprotected tailor-made α-amino acids (α-AAs) through intermediate formation of the corresponding nickel(II)-chelated Schiff bases. The method features virtually complete stereochemical outcome, broad substrate generality (35 examples), and operationally convenient conditions allowing for large-scale preparation of the target α-AAs in enantiomerically pure form. Furthermore, the new type of nonracemizable axially chiral ligands can be quantitatively recycled and reused, rendering the whole process economically and synthetically attractive.
