Abstract
As a valuable versatile building block, L-phenyllactic acid (L-PLA) has numerous applications in the fields of agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and biodegradable plastics. However, both normally chemically synthesized and naturally occurring PLA are racemic, and the production titer of L-PLA is not satisfactory. To improve L-PLA production and reduce the high cost of NADH, an in vitro coenzyme regeneration system of NADH was achieved using the glucose dehydrogenase variant LsGDHD255C and introduced into the L-PLA production process. Here an NADH-dependent L-lactate dehydrogenase-encoding variant gene (L-Lcldh1Q88A/I229A) was expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115. The specific activity of L-LcLDH1Q88A/I229A (Pp) was as high as 447.6 U/mg at the optimum temperature and pH of 40°C and 5.0, which was 38.26-fold higher than that of wild-type L-LcLDH1 (Pp). The catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) of L-LcLDH1Q88A/I229A (Pp) was 94.3 mM−1 s−1, which was 67.4- and 25.5-fold higher than that of L-LcLDH1(Pp) and L-LcLDH1Q88A/I229A (Ec) expressed in Escherichia coli, respectively. Optimum reactions of L-PLA production by dual-enzyme catalysis were at 40°C and pH 5.0 with 10.0 U/ml L-LcLDH1Q88A/I229A (Pp) and 4.0 U/ml LsGDHD255C. Using 0.1 mM NAD+, 400 mM (65.66 g/L) phenylpyruvic acid was completely hydrolyzed by fed-batch process within 6 h, affording L-PLA with 90.0% yield and over 99.9% eep. This work would be a promising technical strategy for the preparation of L-PLA at an industrial scale.

Abstract
Raspberry ketone (RK), the main aroma compound of raspberry fruit, has applications in cosmetics, food industry, and pharmaceutics. In this study, we biosynthesized RK via the catalytic reduction of 4-hydroxybenzylidenacetone using a whole-cell biocatalyst. Reductase RiRZS1 from Rubus idaeus and glucose dehydrogenase SyGDH from Thermoplasma acidophilum were expressed in Escherichia coli to regenerate NADPH for the whole-cell catalytic reaction. Following the optimization of balancing the coexpression of two enzymes in pRSFDuet-1, we obtained 9.89 g/L RK with a conversion rate of 98% and a space-time yield of 4.94 g/(L·h). The optimum conditions are 40 °C, pH 5.5, and a molar ratio of substrate to auxiliary substrate of 1:2.5. Our study findings provide a promising method of biosynthesizing RK.

[PMID: 32264866 PMCID: PMC7137420 DOI: 10.1186/s12934-020-01344-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2020] [Accepted: 03/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol is an important chiral intermediate in the synthesis of liquid crystals and chiral biphosphines. (S)-carbonyl reductase II from Candida parapsilosis catalyzes the conversion of 2-hydroxyacetophenone to (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol with NADPH as a cofactor. Glucose dehydrogenase with a Ala258Phe mutation is able to catalyze the oxidation of xylose with concomitant reduction of NADP+ to NADPH, while endo-β-1,4-xylanase 2 catalyzes the conversion of xylan to xylose. In the present work, the Ala258Phe glucose dehydrogenase mutant and endo-β-1,4-xylanase 2 were introduced into the (S)-carbonyl reductase II-mediated chiral pathway to strengthen cofactor regeneration by using xylan as a naturally abundant co-substrate. Results We constructed several coupled multi-enzyme systems by introducing (S)-carbonyl reductase II, the A258F glucose dehydrogenase mutant and endo-β-1,4-xylanase 2 into Escherichia coli. Different strains were produced by altering the location of the encoding genes on the plasmid. Only recombinant E. coli/pET-G-S-2 expressed all three enzymes, and this strain produced (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol from 2-hydroxyacetophenone as a substrate and xylan as a co-substrate. The optical purity was 100% and the yield was 98.3% (6 g/L 2-HAP) under optimal conditions of 35 °C, pH 6.5 and a 2:1 substrate-co-substrate ratio. The introduction of A258F glucose dehydrogenase and endo-β-1,4-xylanase 2 into the (S)-carbonyl reductase II-mediated chiral pathway caused a 54.6% increase in yield, and simultaneously reduced the reaction time from 48 to 28 h. Conclusions This study demonstrates efficient chiral synthesis using a pentose as a co-substrate to enhance cofactor regeneration. This provides a new approach for enantiomeric catalysis through the inclusion of naturally abundant materials.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), as two kinds of well-known cofactor, are widely used in the most of enzymatic redox reactions, playing an important role in industrial catalysis. In general, supply of NAD(P)H is a major challenged factor in redox fermentation systems due to its high cost and low stability, which have stimulated the development of NADH regeneration systems in recent years. Until now, a series of NAD(P)H regeneration systems have been developed. This review focuses primarily on new approaches of NAD(P)H cofactor regeneration in the biosynthesis systems, such as single cell in vivo NADH regeneration system, double cell coupling NADH regeneration system, in vitro enzyme-coupled NADH regeneration system, microbial cell surface display NADH regeneration system. Finally, the prospect and tendency of NADH regeneration are discussed.

Abstract
Directed evolution is a powerful method to optimize enzyme properties for application demands. Interesting targets are P450 monooxygenases which catalyze the stereo- and regiospecific hydroxylation of chemically inert C-H bonds. Synthesis employing P450s under cell-free reaction conditions is limited by low total turnover numbers, enzyme instability, low product yields and the requirement of the expensive co-factor NADPH. Bioelectrocatalysis is an alternative to replace NADPH in cell-free P450-catalyzed reactions. However, natural enzymes are often not suitable for using non-natural electron delivery systems. Here we report the directed evolution of a previously engineered P450 CinA-10aa-CinC fusion protein (named P450cin-ADD-CinC) to use zinc/cobalt(III)sepulchrate as electron delivery system for an increased hydroxylation activity of 1,8-cineole. Two rounds of Sequence Saturation Mutagenesis (SeSaM) each followed by one round of multiple site-saturation mutagenesis of the P450 CinA-10aa-CinC fusion protein generated a variant (Gln385His, Val386Ser, Thr77Asn, Leu88Arg; named KB8) with a 3.8-fold increase in catalytic efficiency (28 µM-1 min-1) compared to P450cin-ADD-CinC (7 µM-1 min-1). Furthermore, variant KB8 exhibited a 1.5-fold higher product formation (500 µM µM-1 P450) compared to the equimolar mixture of CinA, CinC and Fpr using NADPH as co-factor (315 µM µM-1 P450). In addition, electrochemical experiments with the electron delivery system platinum/cobalt(III)sepulchrate showed that the KB8 variant had a 4-fold higher product formation rate (0.16 nmol (nmol) P450-1 min-1 cm-2) than the P450cin-ADD-CinC (0.04 nmol (nmol) P450-1 min-1 cm-2). In summary, the current work shows prospects of using directed evolution to generate P450 enzymes suitable for use with alternative electron delivery systems.
