Abstract
The previous decade has witnessed a drastic increase of European incentives aimed at pushing forward the transition from an exclusively petro-based economy toward a strong and homogeneous bio-based economy. Since 2012, numerous programs have been developed to stimulate and promote research and innovation relying on sustainable and renewable resources. Terrestrial biomass is a virtually infinite reservoir of biomacromolecules, the biorefining of which provides platform molecules of low complexity yet with tremendous industrial potential. Among such bio-based platform molecules, polyols and, more specifically, molecules featuring vicinal diols have gained tremendous interest and have stimulated an increasing research effort from the chemistry and chemical engineering communities. This Review revolves around the most promising process conditions and technologies reported since 2012 that specifically target bio-based vicinal diols and promote their transformation into value-added molecules of wide industrial interest, such as olefins, epoxides, cyclic carbonates, and ketals.

Abstract
The fields of click chemistry and biocatalysis have rapidly grown over the last two decades. The development of robust and active biocatalysts and the widespread use of straightforward click reactions led to significant interactions between these two fields. Therefore the name bio-click chemistry seems to be an accurate definition of chemoenzymatic reactions cooperating with click transformations. Bio-click chemistry can be understood as the approach towards molecules of high-value using a green and sustainable approach by exploiting the potential of biocatalytic enzyme activity combined with the reliable nature of click reactions. This review summarizes the principal bio-click chemistry reactions reported over the last two decades, with a special emphasis on small molecules. Contributions to the field of bio-click chemistry are manifold, but the synthesis of chiral molecules with applications in medicinal chemistry and sustainable syntheses will be especially highlighted.

Abstract
Epoxide hydrolases (EHs) catalyse the conversion of epoxides into vicinal diols. These enzymes have extensive value in biocatalysis as they can generate enantiopure epoxides and diols which are important and versatile synthetic intermediates for the fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Despite these benefits, they have seen limited use in the bioindustry and novel EHs continue to be reported in the literature. We identified twenty-nine putative EHs within the genomes of soil bacteria. Eight of these EHs were explored in terms of their activity. Two limonene epoxide hydrolases (LEHs) and one ⍺/β EH were active on a model compound styrene oxide and its ring-substituted derivatives, with low to good percentage conversions of 18-86%. Further exploration of the substrate scope with enantiopure (R)-styrene oxide and (S)-styrene oxide, showed different epoxide ring opening regioselectivities. Two enzymes, expressed from plasmids pQR1984 and pQR1990 de-symmetrised the meso-epoxide cyclohexene oxide, forming the (R,R)-diol with high enantioselectivity. Two LEHs, from plasmids pQR1980 and pQR1982 catalysed the hydrolysis of (+) and (-) limonene oxide, with diastereomeric preference for the (1S,2S,4R)- and (1R,2R,4S)-diol products, respectively. The enzyme from plasmid pQR1982 had a good substrate scope for a LEH, being active towards styrene oxide, its analogues, cyclohexene oxide and 1,2-epoxyhexane in addition to (±)-limonene oxide. The enzymes from plasmids pQR1982 and pQR1984 had good substrate scopes and their enzymatic properties were characterised with respect to styrene oxide. They had comparable temperature optima and pQR1984 had 70% activity in the presence of 40% of the green solvent MeOH, a useful property for bio-industrial applications. Overall, this study has provided novel EHs with potential value in industrial biocatalysis.

Abstract
Crude glycerol (C3H8O3) is a major by-product of biodiesel production from vegetable oils and animal fats. The increased biodiesel production in the last two decades has forced glycerol production up and prices down. However, crude glycerol from biodiesel production is not of adequate purity for industrial uses, including food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The purification process of crude glycerol to reach the quality standards required by industry is expensive and dificult. Novel uses for crude glycerol can reduce the price of biodiesel and make it an economical alternative to diesel. Moreover, novel uses may improve environmental impact, since crude glycerol disposal is expensive and dificult. Glycerol is a versatile molecule with many potential applications in fermentation processes and synthetic chemistry. It serves as a glucose substitute in microbial growth media and as a precursor in the synthesis of a number of commercial intermediates or fine chemicals. Chlorinated derivatives of glycerol are an important class of such chemicals. The main focus of this review is the conversion of glycerol to chlorinated derivatives, such as epichlorohydrin and chlorohydrins, and their further use in the synthesis of additional downstream products. Downstream products include non-cyclic compounds with allyl, nitrile, azide and other functional groups, as well as oxazolidinones and triazoles, which are cyclic compounds derived from ephichlorohydrin and chlorohydrins. The polymers and ionic liquids, which use glycerol as an initial building block, are highlighted, as well.

Enantioconvergent hydrolysis of m-nitrostyrene oxide at an elevated concentration by Phaseolus vulgaris epoxide hydrolase in the organic/aqueous two-phase system.

[PMID: 31784998 DOI: 10.1111/lam.13258] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2019] [Revised: 11/21/2019] [Accepted: 11/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
(R)-m-Nitrophenyl-1,2-ethanediol (m-NPED) is a versatile and highly value-added chiral building block for the synthesis of some bioactive compounds, such as (R)-Nifenalol. To efficiently produce (R)-m-NPED through the enantioconvergent hydrolysis of racemic (rac-) m-nitrostyrene oxide (m-NSO) using the whole resting cells of Escherichia coli/pCold-pveh2 intracellularly expressing PvEH2, an epoxide hydrolase from Phaseolus vulgaris, two reaction systems were investigated. In the Na2 HPO4 -NaH2 PO4 buffer (50 mmol l-1 , pH 7·0) system, merely 15 mmol l-1 rac-m-NSO was successfully subjected to enantioconvergent hydrolysis, producing (R)-m-NPED with 86·0% enantiomeric excess (eep ) and 177·6 mg l-1 h-1 space-time yield (STY). The experimental result indicated that there is inhibitory effect of rac-m-NSO at high concentration on PvEH2. To efficiently increase the concentration of rac-m-NSO and the STY of (R)-m-NPED, petroleum ether was first selected to construct an organic/aqueous two-phase system. Then, both the volume ratio (vo /vb ) of petroleum ether to phosphate buffer and the weight ratio (wc /ws ) of E. coli/pCold-pveh2 dry cells to rac-m-NSO were optimized as 2 : 8 and 5 : 1, respectively. In the optimized petroleum ether/phosphate buffer two-phase system, the enantioconvergent hydrolysis of rac-m-NSO at 40 mmol l-1 (6·6 mg ml-1 ) was carried out at 25°C for 12 h using 33·0 mg ml-1 vacuum freeze-dried cells of E. coli/pCold-pveh2, producing (R)-m-NPED with 87·4% eep , 82·3% yield and 502·4 mg l-1 h-1 STY. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Epoxide hydrolases play a crucial role in producing enantiopure epoxides and/or vicinal diols. However, numerous biocatalytic reactions of organic compounds, such as epoxides, in aqueous phase suffered various restrictions. Herein, the enantioconvergent hydrolysis of rac-m-NSO in two reaction systems was investigated using the whole cells of Escherichia coli/pCold-pveh2. As a result, the concentration of rac-m-NSO and the space-time yield of (R)-m-NPED in organic/aqueous two-phase system were significantly increased, when compared with those in aqueous phase. To our knowledge, this is the first report about the production of (R)-m-NPED from rac-m-NSO at an elevated concentration by PvEH2 in the two-phase system.

Abstract
Enantiopure epoxides are versatile synthetic intermediates for producing optically active pharmaceuticals. In an effort to provide more options for the preparation of enantiopure epoxides, a variant of the epoxide hydrolase (vEH-Am) gene from a marine microorganism Agromyces mediolanus was synthesized and expressed in Escherichia coli. Recombiant vEH-Am displayed a molecular weight of 43 kDa and showed high stability with a half-life of 51.1 h at 30 °C. The purified vEH-Am exhibited high enantioselectivity towards styrene oxide (SO) and benzyl glycidyl ether (BGE). The vEH-Am preferentially converted (S)-SO, leaving (R)-SO with the enantiomeric excess (ee) >99%. However, (R)-BGE was preferentially hydrolyzed by vEH-Am, resulting in (S)-BGE with >99% ee. To investigate the origin of regioselectivity, the interactions between vEH-Am and enantiomers of SO and BGE were analyzed by molecular docking simulation. In addition, it was observed that the yields of (R)-SO and (S)-BGE decreased with the increase of substrate concentrations. The yield of (R)-SO was significantly increased by adding 2% (v/v) Tween-20 or intermittent supplementation of the substrate. To our knowledge, vEH-Am displayed the highest enantioselectivity for the kinetic resolution of racemic BGE among the known EHs, suggesting promising applications of vEH-Am in the preparation of optically active BGE.

Abstract
Bacterial diversity from McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica, the coldest desert on earth, has become more easily assessed with the development of High Throughput Sequencing (HTS) techniques. However, some of the diversity remains inaccessible by the power of sequencing. In this study, we combine cultivation and HTS techniques to survey actinobacteria and cyanobacteria diversity along different soil and endolithic micro-environments of Victoria Valley in McMurdo Dry Valleys. Our results demonstrate that the Dry Valleys actinobacteria and cyanobacteria distribution is driven by environmental forces, in particular the effect of water availability and endolithic environments clearly conditioned the distribution of those communities. Data derived from HTS show that the percentage of cyanobacteria decreases from about 20% in the sample closest to the water source to negligible values on the last three samples of the transect with less water availability. Inversely, actinobacteria relative abundance increases from about 20% in wet soils to over 50% in the driest samples. Over 30% of the total HTS data set was composed of actinobacterial strains, mainly distributed by 5 families: Sporichthyaceae, Euzebyaceae, Patulibacteraceae, Nocardioidaceae, and Rubrobacteraceae. However, the 11 actinobacterial strains isolated in this study, belonged to Micrococcaceae and Dermacoccaceae families that were underrepresented in the HTS data set. A total of 10 cyanobacterial strains from the order Synechococcales were also isolated, distributed by 4 different genera (Nodosilinea, Leptolyngbya, Pectolyngbya, and Acaryochloris-like). In agreement with the cultivation results, Leptolyngbya was identified as dominant genus in the HTS data set. Acaryochloris-like cyanobacteria were found exclusively in the endolithic sample and represented 44% of the total 16S rRNA sequences, although despite our efforts we were not able to properly isolate any strain from this Acaryochloris-related group. The importance of combining cultivation and sequencing techniques is highlighted, as we have shown that culture-dependent methods employed in this study were able to retrieve actinobacteria and cyanobacteria taxa that were not detected in HTS data set, suggesting that the combination of both strategies can be usefull to recover both abundant and rare members of the communities.

Abstract
Asymmetric synthesis of chiral epichlorohydrin (ECH) from 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) using halohydrin dehalogenase (HHDH) is of great value due to the 100% theoretical yield and high enantioselectivity. In this study, HheC (P175S/W249P) was immobilized on an A502Ps resin and used for the preparation of (S)-ECH. In aqueous system, the immobilized HheC catalyzed the biosynthesis of (S)-ECH with 83.78% yield and 92.53% enantiomeric excess (ee) at 1,3-DCP concentration of 20 mM. The non-aqueous system was further developed using water saturated ethyl acetate as solvent and reaction phase. The non-aqueous bioconversion system showed higher enantioselectivity (>98% ee) toward (S)-ECH production with modest conversion (52.34%) compared with ever reported aqueous reactions. Batch reactions were performed in a packed-bed bioreactor for 45 batches in aqueous phase and 24 batches in non-aqueous phase. The present work demonstrated the potential of immobilized HheC (P175S/W249P) in aqueous and non-aqueous phase biosynthesis of chiral ECH.

Multipotent Adult Progenitor Cells Suppress T Cell Activation in In Vivo Models of Homeostatic Proliferation in a Prostaglandin E2-Dependent Manner. Front Immunol 2018; 9:645.

Abstract
Lymphodepletion strategies are used in the setting of transplantation (including bone marrow, hematopoietic cell, and solid organ) to create space or to prevent allograft rejection and graft versus host disease. Following lymphodepletion, there is an excess of IL-7 available, and T cells that escape depletion respond to this cytokine undergoing accelerated proliferation. Moreover, this environment promotes the skew of T cells to a Th1 pro-inflammatory phenotype. Existing immunosuppressive regimens fail to control this homeostatic proliferative (HP) response, and thus the development of strategies to successfully control HP while sparing T cell reconstitution (providing a functioning immune system) represents a significant unmet need in patients requiring lymphodepletion. Multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPC®) have the capacity to control T cell proliferation and Th1 cytokine production. Herein, this study shows that MAPC cells suppressed anti-thymocyte globulin-induced cytokine production but spared T cell reconstitution in a pre-clinical model of lymphodepletion. Importantly, MAPC cells administered intraperitoneally were efficacious in suppressing interferon-γ production and in promoting the expansion of regulatory T cells in the lymph nodes. MAPC cells administered intraperitoneally accumulated in the omentum but were not present in the spleen suggesting a role for soluble factors. MAPC cells suppressed lymphopenia-induced cytokine production in a prostaglandin E2-dependent manner. This study suggests that MAPC cell therapy may be useful as a novel strategy to target lymphopenia-induced pathogenic T cell responses in lymphodepleted patients.
