Mutations were introduced into the leucine amine dehydrogenase (L-AmDH) derived from G. stearothermophilus leucine dehydrogenase (LeuDH) with the goals of increased activity and expanded substrate acceptance. A triple variant (L-AmDH-TV) including D32A, F101S, and C290V showed an average of 2.5-fold higher activity toward aliphatic ketones and an 8.0 °C increase in melting temperature. L-AmDH-TV did not show significant changes in relative activity for different substrates. In contrast, L39A, L39G, A112G, and T133G in varied combinations added to L-AmDH-TV changed the shape of the substrate binding pocket. L-AmDH-TV was not active on ketones larger than 2-hexanone. L39A and L39G enabled activity for straight-chain ketones as large as 2-decanone and in combination with A112G enabled activity toward longer branched ketones including 5-methyl-2-octanone.

(R)-Amination mediated by (R)-specific ω-transaminases generally requires costly d-alanine in excess to obtain the desired chiral amines in high yield. Herein, a one-pot, trienzymatic cascade comprising an (R)-specific ω-transaminase, an amine dehydrogenase, and a formate dehydrogenase was developed for the economical and eco-friendly synthesis of (R)-chiral amines. Using inexpensive ammonium formate as the sole sacrificial agent, the established cascade system enabled efficient ω-transaminase-mediated (R)-amination of various ketones, with high conversions and excellent ee (>99%); water and CO2 were the only waste products.

Paragraph 0120; 0121; 0122, (2016/03/22)
The present invention relates to a method for the enzymatic synthesis of enantiomerically enriched (R)-amines of general formula [1][c] from the corresponding ketones of the general formula [1][a] by using novel transaminases. These novel transaminases are selected from two different groups: either from a group of some 20 proteins with sequences as specified herein, or from a group of proteins having transaminase activity and isolated from a microorganism selected from the group of organisms consisting of Rahnella aquatilis, Ochrobactrum anthropi, Ochrobactrum tritici, Sinorhizobium morelense, Curtobacterium pusiffium, Paecilomyces lilacinus, Microbacterium ginsengisoli, Microbacterium trichothecenolyticum, Pseudomonas citronellolis, Yersinia kristensenii, Achromobacter spanius, Achromobacter insolitus, Mycobacterium fortuitum, Mycobacterium frederiksbergense, Mycobacterium sacrum, Mycobacterium fluoranthenivorans, Burkhoideria sp., Burkhoideria tropica, Cosmospora episphaeria, and Fusarium oxysporum.

Multienzyme cascade approaches for the synthesis of optically pure molecules from simple achiral compounds are desired. Herein, a cofactor self-sufficient cascade protocol for the asymmetric amination of racemic secondary alcohols to the corresponding chiral amines was successfully constructed by employing an alcohol dehydrogenase and a newly developed amine dehydrogenase. The compatibility and the identical cofactor dependence of the two enzymes led to an ingenious in situ cofactor recycling system in the one-pot synthesis. The artificial redox-neutral cascade process allowed the transformation of racemic secondary alcohols into enantiopure amines with considerable conversions (up to 94 %) and >99 % enantiomeric excess at the expense of only ammonia; this method thus represents a concise and efficient route for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral amines. If you know what amine: A redox-neutral two-enzyme cascade encompassing an alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and an amine dehydrogenase (AmDH) is constructed for the synthesis of chiral amines from the corresponding racemic alcohols in one pot to afford considerable conversions (up to 94 %) and high enantiomeric excess values (>99 %) at the expense of only ammonia.
Optically active amines by enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution
Ditrich, Klaus
experimental part, p. 2283 - 2287 (2009/04/06)
Chiral amines are resolved by an enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution. Key steps are the selective acylation of one enantiomer with isopropyl methoxyacetate, separation of the resulting amide from the unreacted antipode, and finally amide hydrolysis. The p

A method for inhibiting hair loss and/or promoting hair growth in chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy patients wherein the (R)-enantiomer of 4-[[(cyanoimino)-[(1,2,2-trimethylpropyl)amino]methyl]amino]benzonitrile is administered prior to, simultaneous with and/or after chemotherapy and/or radiation treatment.

Novel derivatives of 3-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)propanol were designed on the basis of lead compounds belonging to the carbamate or ether series possessing (partial) agonist properties on screening assays of the histamine H3 receptor. One pair of enantiomers in the series of α-methyl-branched chiral carbamates was stereoselectively prepared in high optical yields. Enantiomeric purity was checked by Mosher amide derivatives of precursors and capillary electrophoresis of the final compounds with trimethyl-β-cyclodextrin as chiral selector, and was determined to be ≥95%. The novel compounds were investigated in various histamine H3 receptor assays in vitro and in vivo. Some compounds displayed partial agonist activity on synaptosomes of rat brain cortex, whereas others exhibited antagonist properties only. Selected compounds were investigated in [125I]iodoproxyfan binding studies on the human histamine H3 receptor and showed high affinity in the nanomolar concentration range. Under in vivo conditions after oral administration to mice, some of the compounds exhibited partial or full agonist activity in the brain at low dosages. The (S)-enantiomer of one pair of chiral carbamates (9) proved to be the eutomer; thus, the (S)-enantiomer was selected for further pharmacological studies. In a peripheral in vivo test model in rats, measuring the level of inhibition of capsaicin-induced plasma extravasation, (S)-9 again proved its high oral agonist potency with full intrinsic activity (ED50 values of 0.07-0.1 mg/kg depending on tissue).

The diastereoselective nucleophilic addition of alkyllithium to N- alkylidene-α-naphthylethylamine was carried out. In the presence of Lewis acids or Lewis bases, organolithiums reacted smoothly with imines to give the corresponding amines in high stereoselectivity (up to 100% de). Furthermore, the resulting optically active amines were found to be useful for asymmetric reactions as chiral ligands.
