Directed evolution of transaminases is a widespread technique in the development of highly sought-after biocatalysts for industrial applications. This process, however, is challenged by the limited availability of effective high-throughput protocols to evaluate mutant libraries. Here we report a rapid, reliable, and widely applicable background depletion method for solid-phase screening of transaminase variants, which was successfully applied to a transaminase from Halomonas elongata (HEWT), evolved through rounds of random mutagenesis towards a series of diverse prochiral ketones. This approach enabled the identification of transaminase variants in viable cells with significantly improved activity towards para-substituted acetophenones (up to 60-fold), as well as tetrahydrothiophen-3-one and related substrates. Rationalisation of the mutants was assisted by determination of the high-resolution wild-type HEWT crystal structure presented herein.

Page/Page column 15, (2009/03/07)
The present invention relates to an effective process for the preparation of 3-hydroxypyrrolidine or derivatives thereof. The process comprises (a) protecting a hydroxyl group of 4-halo-3-hydroxybutyric acid, (b) reducing an ester group of the compound obtained from the step (a) to obtain a corresponding alcohol compound, (c) reacting the compound obtained from the step (b) with sulfonyl halide to produce a corresponding sulfonate compound, (d) reacting the compound obtained from the step (c) with an amine to obtain 3-hydroxy-protected pyrrolidine compound, and (e) deprotecting the compound obtained from the step (d) to produce the targeted 3-hydroxypyrrolidine or derivatives thereof. The process provides 3-hydroxypyrrolidine or derivatives thereof with high optical purity, because optical purity of the starting material is substantially retained. In the process, each of the steps is carried out in a mild condition and does not require any special purification. This means that the process is useful and adequate for industrial mass production of 3-hydroxypyrrolidine and derivatives thereof having high optical purity.

Purpose. In this study, isomers of two N-substituted soft anticholinergics based on glycopyrrolate, SGM (PcPOAGP_NA.Me) and SGE (PcPOAGP_NA.Et) [3′-(2-cyclopentyl-2-phenyl-2-hydroxyacetoxy)-1′-methyl-1′- alkoxycarbonylpyrrolidinium bromide] and their zwitterionic metabolite, SGa (PcPOAGP_NA.H) [3′-(2-cyclopentyl-2-phenyl-2-hydroxyacetoxy)-1′- methyl-1′-carboxymethylpyrrolidinium inner salt] were synthesized and their pharmacological activities were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Methods. The isomers of SGM and SGE were synthesized with both optically pure methyl-cyclopentylmandelate and 3-hydroxy-N-methylpyrrolidine. Trans-esterification followed by quarternization with alkyl bromoacetate gave four isomers of SGM or SGE with the nitrogen chiral center unresolved (2R3′S-SGM, 2R3′R-SGM, 2S3′S-SGM, 2S3′R-SGM or 2R3′S-SGE, 2R3′R-SGE, 2S3′S-SGE, 2S3′R-SGE). The hydrolysis of these four isomers followed by HPLC separation resulted in eight fully resolved isomers of SGa (2R3′R1′R, 2R3′S1′R, 2R3′R1′S, 2R3′S1′S, 2S3′R1′R, 2S3′S1′R, 2S3′R1′S, and 2S3′S1′S). Pharmacological activities were assessed by using in vitro receptor-binding assay and guinea pig ileum pA2-assay, and by evaluating the in vivo rabbit mydriatic effects. Results were compared to those obtained with conventional anticholinergic agents, such as glycopyrrolate, N-meythylscopolamine, and tropicamide, as well as those obtained with previously prepared racemic mixtures and 2R isomers. Results. Receptor binding pK i values at cloned human muscarinic receptors (M1-M 4 subtypes) were in the 6.0-9.5 range for the newly synthesized SGM and SGE isomers, and in the 5.0-8.6 range for the SGa isomers. In all cases, 2R isomers were significantly more active than 2S isomers (27 to 447 times for SGM isomers, and 6 to 4467 times for SGa isomers). Among the four SGM isomers with unresolved 1′ (N) chiral center, the 3′R isomers were more active than the corresponding 3′S isomers (1.5-12.9 times), whereas, among the SGa isomers, the 3′S isomers were not always more active than the corresponding 3′R isomers indicating that activity determined based on configuration at chiral center 3′ is significantly affected by the configuration of the other two chiral centers, 2 and 1′. Among the completely resolved eight SGa isomers (all three chiral centers resolved), 1′S isomers were always more active than the corresponding 1′R isomers (1.8-22.4 times). Results also indicate that some isomers showed good M3/M2 muscarinic-receptor subtype-selectivity (about 3-5 times), and 2R and 3′S were the determining configurations for this property. Guinea pig ileum assays and rabbit mydriasis tests on SGa isomers further confirmed the stereospecificity. In rabbit eyes, some 2R-SGa isomers showed mydriatic potencies similar to glycopyrrolate and exceeded tropicamide, but their mydriatic effects lasted considerably shorter, and they did not induce dilation of the pupil in the contralateral, water-treated eye. These results indicate that these compounds are locally active, but safe and have a low potential to cause systemic side effects. The pharmacological potency of the eight SGa isomers was estimated as 2R3′S1′S ≈ 2R3′R1′S ≈ 2R3′S1′R > 2R3′R1′R > 2S3′R1′S > 2S3′S1′S ≈ 2S3′R1′R > 2S3′S1′R (p 3/M2 muscarinic-receptor subtype-selectivity of soft anticholinergics, SGM, SGE, and SGa have been demonstrated. In agreement with previous results, the potential for their effective and safe use has been confirmed.

Optical Isomers of Rocastine and Close Analogues: Synthesis and H1 Antihistaminic Activity of Its Enantiomers and Their Structural Relationship to the Classical Antihistamines

, p. 1314 - 1328 (2007/10/02)
The enantiomers of 2--3,4-dihydro-4-methylpyrido-1,4-oxazepine-5(2H)-thione (rocastine) and two of its more potent analogues were prepared with an enantiomeric purity of > 99.9percent.The antihistaminic activity of these compounds was assessed by their ability to block histamine-induced lethality in guinea pigs and to inhibit mepyramine binding to guinea pig cortex.In this series, compounds having the R configuration at the 2-position are at least 300 times more potent than the S isomers.Conformational analysis and molecular modeling suggest that rocastine can adopt a conformation in which the pyridine ring, ether oxygen, and protonated amine functions are positioned similarly to the corresponding elements of the probable binding conformers of some of the more classical antihistamines.This conformation, boatlike in the oxazepine ring with the side chain quasi-equatorial and folded back toward the ring, is the likely binding conformer at the histamine H1 receptor, and the available structure-activity relationship data is consistent with this interpretation.
