Abstract
Biocatalysis has an enormous impact on chemical synthesis. The waves in which biocatalysis has developed, and in doing so changed our perception of what organic chemistry is, were reviewed 20 and 10 years ago. Here we review the consequences of these waves of development. Nowadays, hydrolases are widely used on an industrial scale for the benign synthesis of commodity and bulk chemicals and are fully developed. In addition, further enzyme classes are gaining ever increasing interest. Particularly, enzymes catalysing selective C-C-bond formation reactions and enzymes catalysing selective oxidation and reduction reactions are solving long-standing synthetic challenges in organic chemistry. Combined efforts from molecular biology, systems biology, organic chemistry and chemical engineering will establish a whole new toolbox for chemistry. Recent developments are critically reviewed.

Enzyme Microb Technol 2021; 147:109784. [PMID: 33992412 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2021.109784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2021] [Revised: 02/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Asymmetric CC bond formation catalyzed by aldolases requires the supplementation of nucleophiles and receptors in the reaction medium. However, aldol condensation using a single ketone as substrate has never been reported yet. In this work, we discovered that d-fructose-6-phosphate aldolase (FSA) could convert two 1-hydroxyalkanones, such as hydroxyacetone (HA) and 1-hydroxy-2-butanone, into two type of diketones. The initial product synthesis rate increased 3-fold and the yield reached to 56 %, when pure oxygen was directly inputted into the reaction medium. The results confirmed that oxygen participated in this reaction and hydrogen peroxide was generated. Metal ions Co2+ and Cu2+ remarkably increased the conversion yield compared with the control. For this reaction mechanism, we conjectured that HA may be oxidized to methylglyoxal by enzyme FSA in the presence of oxygen in the medium, and then FSA catalyzes the aldol addition between HA and its oxidative product MG to form diketone products. The obtained diketones could serve as important precursors for preparing furans and pyrroles.
