Abstract
Dopamine is high-value compound of pharmaceutical interest, but its industrial scale production mostly focuses on chemical synthesis, possessing environment pollution. Bio-manufacturing has caused much attention for its environmental characteristic. Resting cells were employed to as biocatalysts with extraordinary advantages like offering stable surroundings, the inherent presence of expensive cofactors. In this study, whole-cell bioconversion was employed to convert dopa to dopamine. To increase the titer and yield of dopamine production through whole-cell catalysis, three kinds of aromatic amino acid transport protein, AroP, PheP and TyrP, were selected to be co-expressed. The effects of the concentration of L-dopa, pyridoxal-5'- phosphate (PLP), reaction temperature and pH were characterized for improvement of bioconversion. Under optimal conditions, dopamine titer reached 1.44 g/L with molar yield of 46.3%, which is 6.62 times than that of initial conditions. The catalysis productivity of recombinant E. coli co-expressed L-dopa decarboxylase(DDC) and AroP was further enhanced by repeated cell recycling, which maintained over 50% of its initial ability with eight consecutive catalyses. This study was the first to successfully bioconversion of dopamine by whole-cell catalysis. This research provided reference for whole-cell catalysis which is hindered by cell membrane.

Abstract
Lysine is a key raw material in the chemical industry owing to its sustainability, mature fermentation process and unique chemical structure, besides being an important nutritional supplement. Multiple commodities can be produced from lysine, which thus inspired various catalytic strategies for the production of these lysine-based chemicals and their downstream applications in functional polymer production. In this review, we present a fundamental and comprehensive study on the catalytic production process of several important lysine-based chemicals and their application in highly valued polymers. Specifically, we first focus on the synthesis process and some of the current industrial production methods of lysine-based chemicals, including ε-caprolactam, α-amino-ε-caprolactam and its derivatives, cadaverine, lysinol and pipecolic acid. Second, the applications and prospects of these lysine-based monomers in functional polymers are discussed such as derived poly (lysine), nylon-56, nylon-6 and its derivatives, which are all of growing interest in pharmaceuticals, human health, textile processes, fire control and electronic manufacturing. We finally conclude with the prospects of the development of both the design and synthesis of new lysine derivatives and the expansion of the as-synthesized lysine-based monomers in potential fields.

Abstract
Tacrolimus (FK506) is a macrolide widely used as immunosuppressant to prevent transplant rejection. Synthetic production of FK506 is not efficient and costly, whereas the biosynthesis of FK506 is complex and the level produced by the wild type strain, Streptomyces tsukubaensis, is very low. We therefore engineered FK506 biosynthesis and the supply of the precursor L-lysine to generate strains with improved FK506 yield. To increase FK506 production, first the intracellular supply of the essential precursor lysine was improved in the native host S. tsukubaensis NRRL 18488 by engineering the lysine biosynthetic pathway. Therefore, a feedback deregulated aspartate kinase AskSt* of S. tsukubaensis was generated by site directed mutagenesis. Whereas overexpression of AskSt* resulted only in a 17% increase in FK506 yield, heterologous overexpression of a feedback deregulated AskCg* from Corynebacterium glutamicum was proven to be more efficient. Combined overexpression of AskCg* and DapASt, showed a strong enhancement of the intracellular lysine pool following increase in the yield by approximately 73% compared to the wild type. Lysine is coverted into the FK506 building block pipecolate by the lysine cyclodeaminase FkbL. Construction of a ∆fkbL mutant led to a complete abolishment of the FK506 production, confirming the indispensability of this enzyme for FK506 production. Chemical complementation of the ∆fkbL mutant by feeding pipecolic acid and genetic complementation with fkbL as well as with other lysine cyclodeaminase genes (pipAf, pipASt, originating from Actinoplanes friuliensis and Streptomyces pristinaespiralis, respectively) completely restored FK506 production. Subsequently, FK506 production was enchanced by heterologous overexpression of PipAf and PipASp in S. tsukubaensis. This resulted in a yield increase by 65% compared to the WT in the presence of PipAf from A. friuliensis. For further rational yield improvement, the crystal structure of PipAf from A. friuliensis was determined at 1.3 Å resolution with the cofactor NADH bound and at 1.4 Å with its substrate lysine. Based on the structure the Ile91 residue was replaced by Val91 in PipAf, which resulted in an overall increase of FK506 production by approx. 100% compared to the WT.

Abstract
l-Pipecolic acid is an important rigid cyclic nonprotein amino acid, which is obtained through the conversion of l-lysine catalyzed by l-lysine cyclodeaminase (LCD). To directly produce l-pipecolic acid from glucose by microbial fermentation, in this study, a recombinant Escherichia coli strain with high efficiency of l-pipecolic acid production was constructed. This study involves the dynamic regulation of the substrate concentration and the expression level of the l-lysine cyclodeaminase-coding gene pipA. In terms of substrate concentration, we adopted the l-lysine riboswitch to dynamically regulate the expression of lysP and lysO genes. As a result, the l-pipecolic acid yield was increased about 1.8-fold as compared with the control. In addition, we used chemically inducible chromosomal evolution (CIChE) to realize the presence of multiple copies of the pipA gene on the genome. The resultant E. coli strain XQ-11-4 produced 61 ± 3.4 g/L l-pipecolic acid with a productivity of 1.02 ± 0.06 g/(L·h) and a glucose conversion efficiency (α) of 29.6% in fermentation. This is the first report that discovered multiple copies of pipA gene expression on the genome that improves the efficiency of l-pipecolic acid production in an l-lysine high-producing strain, and these results give us new insight for constructing the other valuable biochemicals derived from l-lysine.

Abstract
Cis-3-Hydroxypipecolic acid (cis-3-HyPip) is an important intermediate for the synthesis of GE81112 tetrapeptides, a small family of unusual nonribosomal peptide congeners with potent inhibitory activity against prokaryotic translation initiation. In this study, we constructed a microbial cell factory that can convert L-lysine into cis-3-hydroxypipecolic acid (cis-3-HyPip). Lysine cyclodeaminase SpLCD and Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate (2-OG)-based oxygenase GetF were co-expressed in Escherichia coli. Plasmids with different copy numbers were used to balance the expression of these two enzymes, and the cell with the most appropriate balance of this kind for carrying plasmid pET-duet-getf-splcd was obtained. After determining the temperature (30 °C), pH (7.0), cell biomass, substrate concentration, Fe2+ concentration (10 mM), L-ascorbate concentration (10 mM), and TritonX-100 concentration (0.1% w/v) that were optimal for whole-cell catalysis, the yield of cis-3-HyPip reached as high as 25 mM (3.63 g/L).

Abstract
The study investigated the main characteristic micromolecular changes in tilapia fillets after partial freezing treatment with polyphenols by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS) analysis. A total of 2121 metabolite ion features were identified. The result suggested that procyanidin treatment increased the sweet, salty, and thick peptides' contents and suppressed the formation of bitter peptides. The levels of cis-4-octenedioic acid, 2-amino-heptanoic acid, indoleacrylic acid, and 2-amino-3-methyl-1-butanol in polyphenol treatments were significantly lower compared to those in the control group (P < 0.05), which delayed the formation of micromolecule of acids and alcohols associated with spoilage and inhibited the protein and lipid oxidation and degradation. Polyphenol treatments suppressed the formation of biogenic amines (lower levels of spermidine and 1-naphthylacetylspermine) and reduced fillet quality deterioration. It provided critical novel insights into the understanding of the molecular mechanism for inhibiting the quality deterioration of fillets treated with polyphenols during storage.

Abstract
l-lysine is an essential amino acid that contains various functional groups including α-amino, ω-amino, and α-carboxyl groups, exhibiting high reaction potential. The derivatization of these functional groups produces a series of value-added chemicals, such as cadaverine, glutarate, and d-lysine, that are widely applied in the chemical synthesis, cosmetics, food, and pharmaceutical industries. Here, we review recent advances in the biotechnological production of l-lysine and its derivatives and expatiate key technological strategies. Furthermore, we also discuss the existing challenges and potential strategies for more efficient production of these chemicals.

Abstract
Nylon 5 and nylon 6,5 are recently explored as new commercial polyamides, of which the monomer includes δ-valerolactam. In this study, a novel catalytic activity of lysine 2-monooxygenase (DavB) was explored to produce δ-valerolactam from L-pipecolic acid (L-PA), functioning as oxidative decarboxylase on a cyclic compound. Recombinant Escherichia coli BS01 strain expressing DavB from Pseudomonas putida could synthesize δ-valerolactam from L-pipecolic acid with a concentration of 90.3 mg/L. Through the co-expression of recombinant apoptosis-inducing protein (rAIP) from Scomber japonicus, glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) from Bacillus subtilis, Δ1-piperideine-2-carboxylae reductase (DpkA) from P. putida and lysine permease (LysP) from E. coli with DavB, δ-valerolactam was produced with the highest concentration of 242 mg/L. α-Dioxygenases (αDox) from Oryza sativa could act as a similar catalyst on L-pipecolic acid. A novel δ-valerolactam synthesis pathway was constructed entirely via microbial conversion from feedstock lysine in this study. Our system has great potential in the development of a bio-nylon production process. KEY POINTS: • DavB performs as an oxidative decarboxylase on L-PA with substrate promiscuity. • Strain with rAIP, GDH, DpkA, LysP, and DavB coexpression could produce δ-valerolactam. • This is the first time to obtain valerolactam entirely via biosynthesis from lysine.

Abstract
Natural nonproteinogenic amino acids vastly outnumber the well-known 22 proteinogenic amino acids. Such amino acids are generated in specialized metabolic pathways. In these pathways, diverse biosynthetic transformations, ranging from isomerizations to the stereospecific functionalization of C-H bonds, are employed to generate structural diversity. The resulting nonproteinogenic amino acids can be integrated into more complex natural products. Here we review recently discovered biosynthetic routes to freestanding nonproteinogenic α-amino acids, with an emphasis on work reported between 2013 and mid-2019.

Abstract
Glutarate is an important C5 platform chemical produced during the catabolism of L-lysine through 5-aminovalerate (5-AMV) pathway. Here, we first established a whole-cell biocatalysis system for the glutarate production from L-lysine with the engineered Escherichia coli (E. coli) that co-expressed DavAB and GabDT. However, the accumulation of intermediate 5-AMV was identified as one important factor limiting glutarate production. Meanwhile, the negative interaction of co-expressing DavAB and GabDT in a single cell was also confirmed. Here, we solved these problems through engineering a microbial consortium composed of two engineered E. coli strains, BL21-22AB and BL21-YDT, as the whole-cell biocatalysts, each of which contains a part of the glutarate pathway. After the optimization of bioconversion conditions, including temperature, metal ion additives, pH, and cell ratio, 17.2 g/L glutarate was obtained from 20 g/L L-lysine with a yield of 95.1%, which was improved by 19.2% compared with that in a single cell. Little accumulation of 5-AMV was detected. Even at the high substrate concentration, the reduced 5-AMV accumulation and increased glutarate production were achieved. This synthetic consortium produced 43.8 g/L glutarate via a fed-batch strategy, the highest titer reported to date.

Abstract
l-Lysine is widely used as a nutrition supplement in feed, food, and beverage industries as well as a chemical intermediate. At present, great efforts are made to further decrease the cost of lysine to make it more competitive in the markets. Furthermore, lysine also shows potential as a feedstock to produce other high-value chemicals for active pharmaceutical ingredients, drugs, or materials. In this review, the current biomanufacturing of lysine is first presented. Second, the production of novel derivatives from lysine is discussed. Some chemicals like l-pipecolic acid, cadaverine, and 5-aminovalerate already have been obtained at a lab scale. Others like 6-aminocaproic acid, valerolactam, and caprolactam could be produced through a biological and chemical coupling pathway or be synthesized by a hypothetical pathway. This review demonstrates an active and expansive lysine industry, and these green biomanufacturing strategies could also be applied to enhance the competitiveness of other amino acid industry.

An economically and environmentally acceptable synthesis of chiral drug intermediate l-pipecolic acid from biomass-derived lysine via artificially engineered microbes. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2018; 45:405-415.

Abstract
Abstract
Deficiency in petroleum resources and increasing environmental concerns have pushed a bio-based economy to be built, employing a highly reproducible, metal contaminant free, sustainable and green biomanufacturing method. Here, a chiral drug intermediate l-pipecolic acid has been synthesized from biomass-derived lysine. This artificial bioconversion system involves the coexpression of four functional genes, which encode l-lysine α-oxidase from Scomber japonicus, glucose dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis, Δ1-piperideine-2-carboxylase reductase from Pseudomonas putida, and lysine permease from Escherichia coli. Besides, a lysine degradation enzyme has been knocked out to strengthen the process in this microbe. The overexpression of LysP improved the l-pipecolic acid titer about 1.6-folds compared to the control. This engineered microbial factory showed the highest l-pipecolic acid production of 46.7 g/L reported to date and a higher productivity of 2.41 g/L h and a yield of 0.89 g/g. This biotechnological l-pipecolic acid production is a simple, economic, and green technology to replace the presently used chemical synthesis.

Microb Cell Fact 2017; 16:52.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The six-carbon circular non-proteinogenic compound L-pipecolic acid is an important chiral drug intermediate with many applications in the pharmaceutical industry. In the present study, we developed a metabolically engineered strain of Escherichia coli for the overproduction of L-pipecolic acid from glucose. RESULTS The metabolic pathway from L-lysine to L-pipecolic acid was constructed initially by introducing lysine cyclodeaminase (LCD). Next, L-lysine metabolic flux from glucose was amplified by the plasmid-based overexpression of dapA, lysC, and lysA under the control of the strong trc promoter to increase the biosynthetic pool of the precursor L-lysine. Additionally, since the catalytic efficiency of the key enzyme LCD is limited by the cofactor NAD+, the intracellular pyridine nucleotide concentration was rebalanced by expressing the pntAB gene encoding the transhydrogenase, which elevated the proportion of LCD with bound NAD+ and enhanced L-pipecolic acid production significantly. Further, optimization of Fe2+ and surfactant in the fermentation process resulted in 5.33 g/L L-pipecolic acid, with a yield of 0.13 g/g of glucose via fed-batch cultivation. CONCLUSIONS We expanded the metabolic pathway for the synthesis of the chiral pharmaceutical intermediate L-pipecolic acid in E. coli. Using the engineered E. coli, a fast and efficient fermentative production of L-pipecolic acid was achieved. This strategy could be applied to the biosynthesis of other commercially and industrially important chiral compounds containing piperidine rings.
