Turn to switch: A mutant of phenylalanine aminomutase was engineered that can catalyze the regioselective amination of cinnamate derivatives (see scheme, red) to, for example, β-amino acids. This regioselectivity, along with the X-ray crystal structures, suggests two distinct carboxylate binding modes differentiated by Cβi￡Cipso bond rotation, which determines if β- (see scheme) or α-addition takes place.

THE INCLUSION OF THE ENANTIOMERS OF N-TRIFLUOROACETYL-4-FLUOROPHENYLALANINE AND N-TRIFLUOROACETYLPHENYLALANINE BY CYCLOMALTOHEXAOSE: A 2H- AND 19F-N.M.R. STUDY

19F-N.m.r. studies show that N-trifluoroacetyl-D- and -L-4-fluorophenylalanine and N-trifluoroacetyl-D- and -L-phenylalanine form 1:1 inclusion complexes with cyclomaltohexaose (α-cyclodextrin) characterised by stability constants of 11.44 +/- 1.13, 11.40 +/- 1.09, 6.15 +/- 0.59, and 6.37 +/- 0.81 M-1, respectively, in aqueous 0.1M NaCl at pH 6.5 and 25 deg C.Under similar conditions, the correlation time of N-trifluoroacetyl-phenylalanine changed from 65 +/- 4 ps in the free state to 320 +/- 40 ps in the complex, consistent with there being little freedom of movement of the guest in the inclusion complex.

The reactions of asymmetric C-alkylation of glycine and alanine in NiII complexes of their Schiff's bases with modified chiral auxiliaries (S)-2-N-[(N0-2-chlorobenzylprolyl)- amino]benzophenone and (S)-2-N-[N′-(3, 4-dimethylbenzylprolyl)amino]benzophenone by fluorine-substituted benzyl halogenides have been studied. As a result, a highly stereoselective and relatively rapid method for the asymmetric synthesis of (S)-o-, m-, p-fluorophenylalanines and their 2-methyl substituted analogs has been developed.

Nickel(II) complexes of Schiff's bases derived from (S)-o-[(N-benzyl]prolyl)amino]benzophenone [N-(2-benzoylphenyl)-1-benzylpyrrolidine-2-carboxamide] (BBP) and glycine or alanine have been used for asymmetric synthesis of fluoro (S)-phenylalanines and (S
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.
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.

New enantiomerically enriched unsaturated tailor-made amino acids have been obtained. As a starting amino acid synthon for the asymmetric synthesis of tailor-made unsaturated amino acids, Ni(II) square-planar complexes of Schiff's bases of propargylglycine, allylglycine and glycine with chiral auxiliary (S)-2-N-(N’-benzylprolyl)-aminobenzophenone ((S)-BPB) were used. The Cα-alkylation of propargylglycine, allylglycine and glycine moieties resulted in the asymmetric synthesis of novel (S)-α-propargylglycine, (S)-α-allylglycine and glycine derivatives containing an aromatic group in the side chain (de 80–95,5%). After purification and cleavage of the metal complexes, the amino acids were isolated in high enantiomeric purity (ee >99%). Of the obtained seven tailor-made amino acids four showed inhibitory activity to collagenase G. The amino acid with an acetylene bond in the side chain (IC50 = 1.29 ± 0.02 mM) had the best result. Molecular docking showed that the amino acids with activity to collagenase G contained hydrogen and π-π bonds with the enzyme.
