A novel epoxide hydrolase from Glycine max, designated GmEH3, was excavated based on the computer-aided analysis. Then, gmeh3, a GmEH3-encoding gene, was cloned and successfully expressed in E. coli Rosetta(DE3). Among the ten investigated rac-epoxides, GmEH3 possessed the highest and best complementary regioselectivities (regioselectivity coefficients, αS = 93.7% and βR = 97.2%) in the asymmetric hydrolysis of rac-m-chlorostyrene oxide (5a), and the highest enantioselectivity (enantiomeric ratio, E = 55.6) towards rac-phenyl glycidyl ether (7a). The catalytic efficiency (kcatS/KmS = 2.50 mM?1 s?1) of purified GmEH3 for (S)-5a was slightly higher than that (kcatR/KmR = 1.52 mM?1 s?1) for (R)-5a, whereas the kcat/Km (5.16 mM?1 s?1) for (S)-7a was much higher than that (0.09 mM?1 s?1) for (R)-7a. Using 200 mg/mL wet cells of E. coli/gmeh3 as the biocatalyst, the scale-up enantioconvergent hydrolysis of 150 mM rac-5a at 25 °C for 1.5 h afforded (R)-5b with 90.2% eep and 95.4% yieldp, while the kinetic resolution of 500 mM rac-7a for 2.5 h retained (R)-7a with over 99% ees and 43.2% yields. Furthermore, the sources of high regiocomplementarity of GmEH3 for (S)- and (R)-5a as well as high enantioselectivity towards rac-7a were analyzed via molecular docking (MD) simulation.

To provide more options for the stereoselective hydrolysis of epoxides, an epoxide hydrolase (VrEH3) gene from Vigna radiata was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Recombinant VrEH3 displayed the maximum activity at pH 7.0 and 45 °C and high stability at pH 4.5-7.5 and 55 °C. Notably, reVrEH3 exhibited high and complementary regioselectivity toward styrene oxides 1a-3a and high enantioselectivity (E = 48.7) toward o-cresyl glycidyl ether 9a. To elucidate these interesting phenomena, the interactions of the three-dimensional structure between VrEH3 and enantiomers of 1a and 9a were analyzed by molecular docking simulation. Using E. coli/vreh3 whole cells, gram-scale preparations of (R)-1b and (R)-9a were performed by enantioconvergent hydrolysis of 100 mM rac-1a and kinetic resolution of 200 mM rac-9a in the buffer-free water system at 25 °C. These afforded (R)-1b with >99% eep and 78.7% overall yield after recrystallization and (R)-9a with >99% ees, 38.7% overall yield, and 12.7 g/L/h space-time yield.

A facile and simple one-pot method was developed to produce a series of optically active (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediols with good yields (up to 70%) and high enantiomeric excess (>99%) via asymmetric reduction of various substituted aromatic α-oxoaldehydes using Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330.
