Abstract
D-amino acids (D-AAs) are the enantiomeric counterparts of L-amino acids (L-AAs) and important functional factors with a wide variety of physiological activities and applications in the food manufacture industry. Some D-AAs, such as D-Ala, D-Leu, and D-Phe, have been favored by consumers as sweeteners and fragrances because of their unique flavor. The biosynthesis of D-AAs has attracted much attention in recent years due to their unique advantages. In this review, we comprehensively analyze the structure-function relationships, biosynthesis pathways, multi-enzyme cascade and whole-cell catalysis for the production of D-AAs. The state-of-the-art strategies, including immobilization, protein engineering, and high-throughput screening, are summarized. Future challenges and perspectives of strategies-driven by bioinformatics technologies and smart computing technologies, as well as enzyme immobilization, are also discussed. These new approaches will promote the commercial production and application of D-AAs in the food industry by optimizing the key enzymes for industrial biocatalysts.

Abstract
Many kinds of NAD(P)+-dependent L-amino acid dehydrogenases have been so far found and effectively used for synthesis of L-amino acids and their analogs, and for their sensing. By contrast, similar biotechnological use of D-amino acid dehydrogenase (D-AADH) has not been achieved because useful D-AADH has not been found from natural resources. Recently, using protein engineering methods, an NADP+-dependent D-AADH was created from meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase (meso-DAPDH). The artificially created D-AADH catalyzed the reversible NADP+-dependent oxidative deamination of D-amino acids to 2-oxo acids. The enzyme, especially thermostable one from thermophiles, was efficiently applicable to synthesis of D-branched-chain amino acids (D-BCAAs), with high yields and optical purity, and was useful for the practical synthesis of 13C- and/or 15N-labeled D-BCAAs. The enzyme also made it possible to assay D-isoleucine selectively in a mixture of isoleucine isomers. Analyses of the three-dimensional structures of meso-DAPDH and D-AADH, and designed mutations based on the information obtained made it possible to markedly enhance enzyme activity and to create D-AADH homologs with desired reactivity profiles. The methods described here may be an effective approach to artificial creation of biotechnologically useful enzymes.

Abstract
D-Valine is an important organic chiral source and has extensive industrial application, which is used as intermediate for the synthesis of agricultural pesticides, semi-synthetic veterinary antibiotics and pharmaceutical drugs. Its derivatives have shown great activity in clinical use, such as penicillamine for the treatment of immune-deficiency diseases, and actinomycin D for antitumor therapy. Fluvalinate, a pyrethroid pesticide made from D-valine, is a broad-spectrum insecticide with low mammalian toxicity. Valnemulin, a semi-synthetic pleuromutilin derivative synthesized from D-valine, is an antibiotic for animals. Moreover, D-valine is also used in cell culture for selectively inhibiting fibroblasts proliferation. Due to its widespread application, D-valine is gaining more and more attention and some approaches for D-valine preparation have been investigated. In comparison with other approaches, microbial preparation of D-valine is more competitive and promising because of its high stereo selectivity, mild reaction conditions and environmental friendly process. So far, microbial preparation of D-valine can be mainly classified into three categories: microbial asymmetric degradation of DL-valine, microbial stereoselective hydrolysis of N-acyl-DL-valine by D-aminoacylase, and microbial specific hydrolysis of DL-5-isopropylhydantoin by D-hydantoinase coupled with D-carbamoylase. In this paper, the industrial application of D-valine and its microbial preparation are reviewed.

Roles of d-Amino Acids on the Bioactivity of Host Defense Peptides. Int J Mol Sci 2016; 17:ijms17071023.

Abstract
Host defense peptides (HDPs) are positively-charged and amphipathic components of the innate immune system that have demonstrated great potential to become the next generation of broad spectrum therapeutic agents effective against a vast array of pathogens and tumor. As such, many approaches have been taken to improve the therapeutic efficacy of HDPs. Amongst these methods, the incorporation of d-amino acids (d-AA) is an approach that has demonstrated consistent success in improving HDPs. Although, virtually all HDP review articles briefly mentioned about the role of d-AA, however it is rather surprising that no systematic review specifically dedicated to this topic exists. Given the impact that d-AA incorporation has on HDPs, this review aims to fill that void with a systematic discussion of the impact of d-AA on HDPs.

Abstract
In this study, a high (R)-enantioselective nitrilase gene from Sphingomonas wittichii RW1 was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The recombinant nitrilase was purified to homogeneity with a molecular weight of 40 kDa. The pH and temperature optima were shown to be pH 8.0 and 40 °C, respectively. The purified nitrilase was most active toward succinonitrile, approximately 30-fold higher than that for phenylglycinonitrile. Using the E. coli BL21/ReSWRW1 whole cells as biocatalysts, the kinetic resolution for asymmetric synthesis of (R)-phenylglycine was investigated at pH 6.0. A yield of 46 % was obtained with 95 % enantiomeric excess (ee), which made it a promising biocatalyst for synthesis of (R)-phenylglycine.

Abstract
A simple enzymatic method for production of a wide variety of D-amino acids was developed by kinetic resolution of DL-amino acids using L-amino acid oxidase (L-AAO) with broad substrate specificity from Rhodococcus sp. AIU Z-35-1. The optimum pH of the L-AAO reaction was classified into three groups depending on the L-amino acids as substrate, and their respective activities between pH 5.5 and 8.5 accounted for more than 60% of the optimum activity. The enzyme was stable in the range from pH 6.0 to 8.0, and approximately 80% of the enzyme activity remained after incubation at 40°C for 60 min at pH 7.0. D-Amino acids such as D-citrulline, D-glutamine, D-homoserine or D-arginine, which are not produced by D-aminoacylases or D-hydantoinases, were produced from the racemic mixture within a 24-hr reaction at 30°C and pH 7.0. Thus, the present method using L-AAO was versatile for production of a wide variety of D-amino acids.

Abstract
Several omega-laurolactam degrading microorganisms were isolated from soil samples. These strains were capable of growing in a medium containing omega-laurolactam as sole source of carbon and nitrogen. Among them, five strains (T7, T31, U124, U224, and U238) were identified as Cupriavidus sp. T7, Acidovorax sp. T31, Cupriavidus sp. U124, Rhodococcus sp. U224, and Sphingomonas sp. U238, respectively. The omega-laurolactam hydrolyzing enzyme from Rhodococcus sp. U224 was purified to homogeneity, and its enzymatic properties were characterized. The enzyme acts on omega-octalactam and omega-laurolactam, but other lactam compounds, amides and amino acid amides, cannot be substrates. The enzyme gene was cloned, and the deduced amino acid sequence showed high homology with 6-aminohexanoate-cyclic-dimer hydrolase (EC 3.5.2.12) from Arthrobacter sp. KI72 and Pseudomonas sp. NK87. Enzymatic synthesis of 12-aminolauric acid was performed using partially purified omega-laurolactam hydrolase from Rhodococcus sp. U224.

Abstract
D-amino acid amidase (DAA) from Ochrobactrum anthropi SV3, which catalyzes the stereospecific hydrolysis of D-amino acid amides to yield the D-amino acid and ammonia, has attracted increasing attention as a catalyst for the stereospecific production of D-amino acids. In order to clarify the structure-function relationships of DAA, the crystal structures of native DAA, and of the D-phenylalanine/DAA complex, were determined at 2.1 and at 2.4 A resolution, respectively. Both crystals contain six subunits (A-F) in the asymmetric unit. The fold of DAA is similar to that of the penicillin-recognizing proteins, especially D-alanyl-D-alanine-carboxypeptidase from Streptomyces R61, and class C beta-lactamase from Enterobacter cloacae strain GC1. The catalytic residues of DAA and the nucleophilic water molecule for deacylation were assigned based on these structures. DAA has a flexible Omega-loop, similar to class C beta-lactamase. DAA forms a pseudo acyl-enzyme intermediate between Ser60 O(gamma) and the carbonyl moiety of d-phenylalanine in subunits A, B, C, D, and E, but not in subunit F. The difference between subunit F and the other subunits (A, B, C, D and E) might be attributed to the order/disorder structure of the Omega-loop: the structure of this loop cannot assigned in subunit F. Deacylation of subunit F may be facilitated by the relative movement of deprotonated His307 toward Tyr149. His307 N(epsilon2) extracts the proton from Tyr149 O(eta), then Tyr149 O(eta) attacks a nucleophilic water molecule as a general base. Gln214 on the Omega-loop is essential for forming a network of water molecules that contains the nucleophilic water needed for deacylation. Although peptidase activity is found in almost all penicillin-recognizing proteins, DAA lacks peptidase activity. The lack of transpeptidase and carboxypeptidase activities may be attributed to steric hindrance of the substrate-binding pocket by a loop comprised of residues 278-290 and the Omega-loop.

Abstract
Brevundimonas diminuta TPU 5720 produces an amidase acting L-stereoselectively on phenylalaninamide. The enzyme (LaaA(Bd)) was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation and four steps of column chromatography. The final preparation gave a single band on SDS-PAGE with a molecular weight of approximately 53,000. The native molecular weight of the enzyme was about 288,000 based on gel filtration chromatography, suggesting that the enzyme is active as a homohexamer. It had maximal activity at 50 degrees C and pH 7.5. LaaA(Bd) lost its activity almost completely on dialysis against potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0), and the amidase activity was largely restored by the addition of Co(2+) ions. The enzyme was, however, inactivated in the presence of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid even in the presence of Co(2+), suggesting that LaaA(Bd) is a Co(2+)-dependent enzyme. LaaA(Bd) had hydrolyzing activity toward a broad range of L-amino acid amides including L-phenylalaninamide, L-glutaminamide, L-leucinamide, L-methioninamide, L-argininamide, and L-2-aminobutyric acid amide. Using information on the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme, the gene encoding LaaA(Bd) was cloned from the chromosomal DNA of the strain and sequenced. Analysis of 4,446 bp of the cloned DNA revealed the presence of seven open-reading frames (ORFs), one of which (laaA ( Bd )) encodes the amidase. LaaA(Bd) is composed of 491 amino acid residues (calculated molecular weight 51,127), and the deduced amino acid sequence exhibits significant similarity to that of ORFs encoding hypothetical cytosol aminopeptidases found in the genomes of Caulobacter crescentus, Bradyrhizobium japonicum, Rhodopseudomonas palustris, Mesorhizobium loti, and Agrobacterium tumefaciens, and leucine aminopeptidases, PepA, from Rickettsia prowazekii, Pseudomonas putida ATCC 12633, and Escherichia coli K-12. The laaA ( Bd ) gene modified in the nucleotide sequence upstream from its start codon was overexpressed in an E. coli transformant. The activity of the recombinant LaaA(Bd) in cell-free extracts of the E. coli transformant was 25.9 units mg(-1) with L-phenylalaninamide as substrate, which was 50 times higher than that of B. diminuta TPU 5720.

Abstract
N-Acyl-D-glutamate amidohydrolase (D-AGase) was inhibited by 94 % when 1 mol/l N-acetyl-DL-glutamate was used as a substrate. The addition of 1 mM Co2+ stabilized D-AGase. Moreover, the substrate inhibition was weakened to 88% with the addition of 0.4 mM Co2+ to the reaction mixture. Although D-AGase is a zinc-metalloenzyme, the addition of Zn2+ from 0.01 to 10 mM did not increase the D-glutamic acid production in the saturated substrate. Under optimal conditions, 0.38 M D-glutamic acid was obtained from N-acyl-DL-glutamate with 100% of the theoretical yield after 48 h.

Abstract
Amino acid amide racemizing activity was discovered in alpha-amino-epsilon-caprolactam (ACL) racemase (EC 5. 1. 1. 15) from Achromobacter obae. The enzymatic synthesis of d-alanine from l-alanine amide has been demonstrated by use of d-aminopeptidase (DAP; EC 3. 4. 11. 19) from Ochrobactrum anthropi C1-38 and ACL racemase. The conversion of 45 mM l-alanine amide was carried out at 30 degrees C for 7 h; l-alanine amide was completely converted to d-alanine, and no l-alanine was detected. The result of successive enzymatic reaction shows that the combination of ACL racemase and DAP can be applied for dynamic kinetic resolution of dl-amino acid amides to yield d-amino acids.

Abstract
The overproduction of d-aminoacylase (A6-d-ANase) of Alcaligenes xylosoxydans subsp. xylosoxydans A-6 (Alcaligenes A-6) is accompanied by aggregation of the overproduced protein, and its soluble expression is facilitated by the coexpression of DnaK-DnaJ-GrpE (DnaKJE). When the A6-d-ANase gene was expressed in the Escherichia coli dnaK mutant dnaK756, little activity was observed in the soluble fraction, and it was restored by the coexpression of DnaKJE or the substitution of the R354 residue of A6-d-ANase for lysine. These results suggest that the guanidino group of the R354 residue of A6-d-ANase disturbs its proper folding in the absence of DnaK and the disturbance is eliminated by binding of DnaK to the R354 residue in the presence of DnaK. This is the first report that the DnaK-dependent folding process of the enzyme is altered by site-directed mutagenesis.

Abstract
The overproduction of D-aminoacylase ( D-ANase, 233.8 U/mg), N-acyl-D-glutamate amidohydrolase (D-AGase, 38.1 U/mg) or N-acyl-D-aspartate amidohydrolase (D-AAase, 6.2 U/mg) in Escherichia coli is accompanied by aggregation of the overproduced protein. To facilitate the expression of active enzymes, the molecular chaperones GroEL-GroES (GroELS), DnaK-DnaJ-GrpE (DnaKJE), trigger factor (TF), GroELS and DnaKJE or GroELS and TF were coexpressed with the enzymes. D-ANase (313.3 U/mg) and D-AGase (95.8 U/mg) were overproduced in an active form at levels 1.3- and 1.8-fold higher, respectively, upon co-expression of GroELS and TF. An E. coli strain expressing the D-AAase gene simultaneously with the TF gene exhibited a 4.3-fold enhancement in d-AAase activity (32.0 U/mg) compared with control E. coli expressing the D-AAase gene alone.
