Chemphyschem 2024; 25:e202400008. [PMID: 38514394 DOI: 10.1002/cphc.202400008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024]
Abstract
Structure-guided engineering of a CHMO from Amycolatopsis methanolica (AmCHMO) was performed for asymmetric sulfoxidation activity and stereoselectivity toward omeprazole sulfide. Initially, combinatorial active-site saturation test (CASTing) and iteratively saturation mutagenesis (ISM) were performed on 5 residues at the "bottleneck" of substrate tunnel, and MT3 was successfully obtained with a specific activity of 46.19 U/g and R-stereoselectivity of 99 % toward OPS. Then, 4 key mutations affecting the stereoselectivity were identified through multiple rounds of ISM on residues at the substrate binding pocket region, resulting MT8 with an inversed stereoselectivity from 99 % (R) to 97 % (S). MT8 has a greatly compromised specific activity of 0.08 U/g. By introducing additional beneficial mutations, MT11 was constructed with significantly increased specific activity of 2.29 U/g and stereoselectivity of 97 % (S). Enlarged substrate tunnel is critical to the expanded substrate spectrum of AmCHMO, while reshaping of substrate binding pocket is important for stereoselective inversion. Based on MD simulation, pre-reaction states of MT3-OPSproR, MT8-OPSproS, and MT11-OPSproS were calculated to be 45.56 %, 17.94 %, and 28.65 % respectively, which further confirm the experimental data on activity and stereoselectivity. Our results pave the way for engineering distinct activity and stereoselectivity of BVMOs toward bulky prazole thioethers.

A Novel Estrone Degradation Gene Cluster and Catabolic Mechanism in Microbacterium oxydans ML-6. Appl Environ Microbiol 2023; 89:e0148922. [PMID: 36847539 PMCID: PMC10057884 DOI: 10.1128/aem.01489-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 02/05/2023] [Indexed: 03/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Global-scale estrone (E1) contamination of soil and aquatic environments results from the widespread use of animal manure as fertilizer, threatening both human health and environmental security. A detailed understanding of the degradation of E1 by microorganisms and the associated catabolic mechanism remains a key challenge for the bioremediation of E1-contaminated soil. Here, Microbacterium oxydans ML-6, isolated from estrogen-contaminated soil, was shown to efficiently degrade E1. A complete catabolic pathway for E1 was proposed via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), genome sequencing, transcriptomic analysis, and quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR). In particular, a novel gene cluster (moc) associated with E1 catabolism was predicted. The combination of heterologous expression, gene knockout, and complementation experiments demonstrated that the 3-hydroxybenzoate 4-monooxygenase (MocA; a single-component flavoprotein monooxygenase) encoded by the mocA gene was responsible for the initial hydroxylation of E1. Furthermore, to demonstrate the detoxification of E1 by strain ML-6, phytotoxicity tests were performed. Overall, our findings provide new insight into the molecular mechanism underlying the diversity of E1 catabolism in microorganisms and suggest that M. oxydans ML-6 and its enzymes have potential applications in E1 bioremediation to reduce or eliminate E1-related environmental pollution. IMPORTANCE Steroidal estrogens (SEs) are mainly produced by animals, while bacteria are major consumers of SEs in the biosphere. However, the understanding of the gene clusters that participate in E1 degradation is still limited, and the enzymes involved in the biodegradation of E1 have not been well characterized. The present study reports that M. oxydans ML-6 has effective SE degradation capacity, which facilitates the development of strain ML-6 as a broad-spectrum biocatalyst for the production of certain desired compounds. A novel gene cluster (moc) associated with E1 catabolism was predicted. The 3-hydroxybenzoate 4-monooxygenase (MocA; a single-component flavoprotein monooxygenase) identified in the moc cluster was found to be necessary and specific for the initial hydroxylation of E1 to generate 4-OHE1, providing new insight into the biological role of flavoprotein monooxygenase.

Abstract
In this study, we selected and engineered a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent alcohol oxidase (AOX) to produce 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxaldehyde (CHDA), an initial raw material for spiral compounds, from 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM). First, the structure of alcohol oxidase from Arthrobacter cholorphenolicus (AcCO) was analyzed, and the mechanism of AcCO-catalyzed primary alcohol oxidation was elucidated, demonstrating that the energy barrier of the hydride (H-) transfer (13.4 kcal·mol-1 and 20.4 kcal·mol-1) decreases the catalytic efficiency of the primary alcohol oxidation reaction. Therefore, we designed a protein engineering strategy to adjust the catalytically active conformation to shorten the distance of hydride (H-) transfer and further decreased the core energy barrier. Following this strategy, variant W4 (S101A/H351V/N378S/Q329N) was obtained with 112.5-fold increased catalytic efficiency to produce CHDA compared to that of the wild-type strain. The 3 L scale preparation of CHDA reached a titer up to 29.6 g·L-1 with a 42.2% yield by an Escherichia coli whole-cell catalyst, which demonstrates the potential of this system for industrial application.

Abstract
Inositol is an essential intermediate in cosmetics, food, medicine and other industries. However, developing an efficient biotransformation system for large-scale production of inositol remains challenging. Herein, a tri-enzymatic cascade route with three novel enzymes including polyphosphate glucokinase (PPGK) from Thermobifida fusca, inositol 3-phosphate synthase (IPS) from Archaeoglobus profundus DSM 5631 and inositol monophosphatase (IMP) from Thermotoga petrophila RKU-1 was designed and reconstructed for the production of inositol from glucose. The problem of poor cooperativity of the cascade reactions was addressed by ribosome binding site (RBS) optimization of PPGK and replication of IPS. Under the optimum biotransformation conditions, the engineered whole-cell immobilized with colloidal chitin transformed 120 g/L glucose to 110.8 g/L inositol with 92.3% conversion in four cycles of reuse, representing the highest titer of inositol to date. Furthermore, this is the first study for inositol production using a three-enzyme coordinated immobilized single-cell.

Abstract
d-Allulose is an attractive noncaloric sugar substitute with numerous health benefits, which can be biosynthesized by d-allulose 3-epimerases (DAEases). However, enzyme instability under harsh industrial reaction conditions hampered its practical applications. Here, we developed a continuous spectrophotometric assay (CSA) for the efficient analysis of d-allulose in a mixture. Furthermore, a high-throughput screening strategy for DAEases was developed using CSA by coupling DAEase with a NADH-dependent ribitol dehydrogenase, enabling high-throughput screening of DAEase variants with desired properties. The variant M15S/P40N/S209N exhibited a half-life of 22 h at 60 °C and an 8.7 °C increase of the T5060 value, with a 1.2-fold increase of activity. Structural modeling and molecular dynamics simulations indicated that the improvement of thermostability and activity was due to some new hydrogen bonds between chains at the dimer interface and between the residue and the substrate d-fructose. This work offers a robust tool and theoretical basis for the improvement of DAEases, which will benefit the enzymatic biosynthesis of d-allulose and promote its industrial application.

Rational design of a highly efficient catalytic system for the production of PAPS from ATP and its application in the synthesis of chondroitin sulfate. Biotechnol Bioeng 2021; 118:4503-4515.

Abstract
The compound 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) serves as a sulfate group donor in the production of valuable sulfated compounds. However, elevated costs and low conversion efficiency limit the industrial applicability of PAPS. Here, we designed and constructed an efficient and controllable catalytic system for the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) (disodium salt) into PAPS without inhibition from by-products. In vitro and in vivo testing in Escherichia coli identified adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate kinase from Penicillium chrysogenum (PcAPSK) as the rate-limiting enzyme. Based on analysis of the catalytic steps and molecular dynamics simulations, a mechanism-guided "ADP expulsion" strategy was developed to generate an improved PcAPSK variant (L7), with a specific activity of 48.94 U·mg-1 and 73.27-fold higher catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) that of the wild-type enzyme. The improvement was attained chiefly by reducing the ADP-binding affinity of PcAPSK, as well as by changing the enzyme's flexibility and lid structure to a more open conformation. By introducing PcAPSK L7 in an in vivo catalytic system, 73.59 mM (37.32 g·L-1 ) PAPS was produced from 150 mM ATP in 18.5 h using a 3-L bioreactor, and achieved titer is the highest reported to date and corresponds to a 98.13% conversion rate. Then, the PAPS catalytic system was combined with the chondroitin 4-sulfotransferase using a one-pot method. Finally, chondroitin sulfate was transformed from chondroitin at a conversion rate of 98.75%. This strategy has great potential for scale biosynthesis of PAPS and chondroitin sulfate.

Abstract
Enzymes, at the turn of the 21st century, are gaining a momentum. Especially in the field of synthetic organic chemistry, a broad variety of biocatalysts are being applied in an increasing number of processes running at up to industrial scale. In addition to the advantages of employing enzymes under environmentally friendly reaction conditions, synthetic chemists are recognizing the value of enzymes connected to the exquisite selectivity of these natural (or engineered) catalysts. The use of hydrolases in enantioselective protocols paved the way to the application of enzymes in asymmetric synthesis, in particular in the context of biocatalytic (dynamic) kinetic resolutions. After two decades of impressive development, the field is now mature to propose a panel of catalytically diverse enzymes for (i) stereoselective reactions with prochiral compounds, such as double bond reduction and bond forming reactions, (ii) formal enantioselective replacement of one of two enantiotopic groups of prochiral substrates, as well as (iii) atroposelective reactions with noncentrally chiral compounds. In this review, the major enzymatic strategies broadly applicable in the asymmetric synthesis of optically pure chiral compounds are presented, with a focus on the reactions developed within the past decade.

Abstract
For the efficient industrial production of glutarate, an important C5 platform chemical that is widely used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, a five-enzyme cascade pathway was designed and reconstructed in vitro to synthesize glutarate from L-lysine. Then, the imbalanced enzyme expression levels of L-lysine decarboxylase from Escherichia coli (EcCA), putrescine aminotransferase (KpcPA) and γ-aminovaleraldehyde dehydrogenase (KpcPD) from Klebsiella pneumoniae, and the poor catalytic efficiency of KpcPA were identified as the rate-limiting bottlenecks. To this end, ribosome binding site regulation was employed to coordinate the enzyme molar ratio of EcCA:KpcPA:KpcPD at approximately 4:8:7 (the optimum ratio obtained in vitro), and volume scanning and hydrophobicity scanning were applied to increase KpcPA activity toward cadaverine from 15.89 ± 0.52 to 75.87 ± 1.51 U·mg-1. Furthermore, the extracellular accumulation of 5-aminovalerate (5AVA) was considerably reduced by overexpressing gabP encoding the 5AVA importer. Combining these strategies into the engineered strain Glu-02, 77.62 g/L glutarate, the highest titer by E. coli to date, was produced from 100 g/L L-lysine in 42 h, with a yield and productivity of 0.78 g/g L-lysine and 1.85 g/L/h, respectively, at a 5-L scale. The results presented here provide a novel and potential enzymatic process at industrial-scale to produce glutarate from cheaper amino acids. KEY POINTS: • The bioconversion of l-lysine to glutarate using the Cad pathway was first achieved. • Enhancing the conversion efficiency of the Cad route maximizes glutarate in E. coli. • Achieving the highest titer of glutarate by E. coli to date.

The reliable design and prediction of enzyme promiscuity to access transformations not observed in nature remains a long-standing challenge. Herein, we present the first example of an intramolecular stereoselective Stetter reaction catalyzed by benzaldehyde lyase, guided by the rational structure screening of various ThDP-dependent enzymes using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. After optimization, high productivity (up to 99 %) and stereoselectivity (up to 99:1 e.r.) for this novel enzyme function was achieved.

Abstract
Reductions play a key role in organic synthesis, producing chiral products with new functionalities. Enzymes can catalyse such reactions with exquisite stereo-, regio- and chemoselectivity, leading the way to alternative shorter classical synthetic routes towards not only high-added-value compounds but also bulk chemicals. In this review we describe the synthetic state-of-the-art and potential of enzymes that catalyse reductions, ranging from carbonyl, enone and aromatic reductions to reductive aminations.

Abstract
The l-lysine-ϵ-dehydrogenase (LysEDH) from Geobacillus stearothermophilus naturally catalyzes the oxidative deamination of the ϵ-amino group of l-lysine. We previously engineered this enzyme to create amine dehydrogenase (AmDH) variants that possess a new hydrophobic cavity in their active site such that aromatic ketones can bind and be converted into α-chiral amines with excellent enantioselectivity. We also recently observed that LysEDH was capable of reducing aromatic aldehydes into primary alcohols. Herein, we harnessed the promiscuous alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity of LysEDH to create new variants that exhibited enhanced catalytic activity for the reduction of substituted benzaldehydes and arylaliphatic aldehydes to primary alcohols. Notably, these novel engineered dehydrogenases also catalyzed the reductive amination of a variety of aldehydes and ketones with excellent enantioselectivity, thus exhibiting a dual AmDH/ADH activity. We envisioned that the catalytic bi-functionality of these enzymes could be applied for the direct conversion of alcohols into amines. As a proof-of-principle, we performed an unprecedented one-pot "hydrogen-borrowing" cascade to convert benzyl alcohol to benzylamine using a single enzyme. Conducting the same biocatalytic cascade in the presence of cofactor recycling enzymes (i.e., NADH-oxidase and formate dehydrogenase) increased the reaction yields. In summary, this work provides the first examples of enzymes showing "alcohol aminase" activity.

Abstract
Isoleucine dioxygenase (IDO)-catalyzed hydroxylation of isoleucine is a promising method for the synthesis of the diabetic drug (2S,3R,4S)-4-hydroxyisoleucine [(2S,3R,4S)-4-HIL]. However, the low activity of IDO significantly limits its practical application. In this work, a high-throughput screening method was developed and directed evolution was performed on the IDO from Bacillus subtilis, resulting in a double mutant with improvements in specific activity, protein expression level, and fermentation titer of 3.2-, 2.8-, and 9.4-fold, respectively. l-Isoleucine (228 mM) was completely converted to (2S,3R,4S)-4-HIL by the best variant with a space-time yield of up to 80.8 g L-1 d-1, which is the highest record reported so far. With a further increase of the substrate loading to 1 M, a high conversion of 91% could also be achieved. At last, enzymatic synthesis of (2S,3R,4S)-4-HIL was successfully carried out on a 3 L scale, indicating tremendous potential of the IDO variant I162T/T182N for green and efficient production of (2S,3R,4S)-4-HIL.

Abstract
Expanding the repertoire of reactions available to enzymes is an enduring challenge in biocatalysis. Owing to the synthetic versatility of transition metals, metalloenzymes have been favored targets for achieving new catalytic functions. Although less well explored, enzymes lacking metal centers can also be effective catalysts for non-natural reactions, providing access to reaction modalities that compliment those available to metals. By understanding how these activation modes can reveal new functions, strategies can be developed to access novel biocatalytic reactions. This review will cover discoveries in the last two years which access catalytic reactions that go beyond the native repertoire of metal-free biocatalysts.
