Multi-enzymatic cascade reaction systems were designed to generate biopolymer monomers using Escherichia coli-based cell modules, capable of carrying out one-pot reactions. Three cell-based modules, including a ω-hydroxylation module (Cell-Hm) to convert fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) to ω-hydroxy fatty acids (ω-HFAs), an amination module (Cell-Am) to convert terminal alcohol groups of the substrate to amine groups, and a reduction module (Cell-Rm) to convert the carboxyl groups of fatty acids to alcohol groups, were constructed. The product-oriented assembly of these cell modules involving multi-enzymatic cascade reactions generated ω-ADAs (up to 46 mM), α,ω-diols (up to 29 mM), ω-amino alcohols (up to 29 mM) and α,ω-diamines (up to 21 mM) from 100 mM corresponding FAME substrates with varying carbon chain length (C8, C10, and C12). Finally 12-ADA and 1,12-diol were purified with isolated yields of 66.5% and 52.5%, respectively. The multi-enzymatic cascade reactions reported herein present an elegant ‘greener’ alternative for the biosynthesis of various biopolymer monomers from renewable saturated fatty acids.

Recently, investigations of the complex mechanisms of allostery have led to a deeper understanding of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation and signaling processes. In this context, muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) are highly relevant due to their exemplary role in the study of allosteric modulation. In this work, we compare and discuss two sets of putatively dualsteric ligands, which were designed to connect carbachol to different types of allosteric ligands. We chose derivatives of TBPB [1-(1′-(2-tolyl)-1,4′-bipiperidin-4-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2(3H)-one] as M1-selective putative bitopic ligands, and derivatives of benzyl quinolone carboxylic acid (BQCA) as an M1 positive allosteric modulator, varying the distance between the allosteric and orthosteric building blocks. Luciferase protein complementation assays demonstrated that linker length must be carefully chosen to yield either agonist or antagonist behavior. These findings may help to design biased signaling and/or different extents of efficacy.

Running two two-step cascades in parallel anti-sense to transform an alcohol to an amine allowed the conversion of ω-hydroxy fatty acids (ω-HFAs) and α,ω-diols to the corresponding ω-amino fatty acids (ω-AmFAs) and α,ω-diamines, respectively. The network required only two enzymes namely an aldehyde reductase (AHR) and a transaminase (TA). Benzylamine served on the one hand as amine donor and on the other hand after deamination to benzaldehyde also as oxidant. All ω-HFAs tested were efficiently transformed to their corresponding ω-AmFAs using purified enzymes as well as a whole-cell system, separately expressing both the enzymes, with conversions ranging from 80-95%. Additionally, a single-cell co-expressing all enzymes successfully produced the ω-AmFAs as well as the α,ω-diamines with >90% yield. This system was extended by employing a lactonase, enabling the transformation of ?-caprolactone to its corresponding ω-AmFA with >80% conversion.
