BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2020; 317:123984. [PMID: 32827974 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2020.123984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2020] [Revised: 08/05/2020] [Accepted: 08/06/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
A novel carboxylesterase AcEst1 was identified from Acinetobacter sp. JNU9335 with high efficiency in the biosynthesis of chiral precursor of Edoxaban through kinetic resolution of methyl 3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylate (CHCM). Sequence analysis revealed AcEst1 belongs to family IV of esterolytic enzymes and exhibits <40% identities with known carboxylesterases. The optimum pH and temperature of recombinant AcEst1 are 8.0 and 40 °C. Substrate spectrum analysis indicated that AcEst1 prefers substrates with short acyl and alcohol groups. AcEst1 was highly active in the hydrolysis of CHCM with kcat of 1153 s-1 and displayed high substrate tolerance. As much as 2.0 M (280 g·L-1) CHCM could be enantioselectively hydrolyzed into (S)-CHCM by merely 0.08 g·L-1AcEst1 with ees of >99% (S) and substrate to catalyst ratio (S/C) of 3500 g·g-1. These results indicate that the novel AcEst1 is a promising biocatalyst in the synthesis of chiral carboxylic acids.

Int J Med Microbiol 2020; 310:151396.

Abstract
The occurrence of antibiotic resistance bacteria has become a major threat to public health. We have recently discovered a transcriptional activator that belongs to MarR family, EstR, and an esterase B (EstB) with a newly proposed de-arenethiolase activity from Sphingobium sp. SM42. De-arenethiolase activity involves the removal of the small aromatic side chain of cephalosporin antibiotics as an excellent leaving group by the enzymatic CS bond cleavage. Here, we report the regulation of estB through EstR as an activator in response to a third generation cephalosporin, cefoperazone, antibiotic. Cefoperazone induced the expression of estB in wild type Sphingobium sp., but not in the estR knockout strain, and the induction was restored in the complemented strain. Moreover, we revealed the importance of EstB localization in periplasm. Since EsB has the ability to inactivate selected β-lactam antibiotics in vitro, it is possible that the enzyme works at the periplasmic space of Gram negative bacteria similar to β-lactamases. EstB was genetically engineered by incorporating NlpA binding motif, or OmpA signal sequence, or SpyTag-SpyCatcher to the estB gene to mobilize it to different compartments of periplasm; inner membrane, outer membrane, and periplasmic space, respectively. Surprisingly, we found that Sphingobium sp. SM42 and E. coli expressing EstB at the periplasm were more sensitive to cefoperazone. The possible drug enhancement mechanism by enzyme was proposed. This work might lead to a novel strategy to tackle antibiotic resistance problem.
