Abstract
As a class of ionic liquids with higher biocompatibility, cholinium aminoates ([Cho][AA]) hold potential as solvation media for enzymatic bioprocessing. Herein, solvation effect of [Cho][AA] on structural stability and enzymatic activity of Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) was evaluated using experimental and computational approaches. Influence of [Cho][AA] on CALB stability was investigated using amino acid anions ([AA]-) with varying hydrophobicity levels. Choline phenylalaninate ([Cho][Phe]) resulted in 109.1% and 110.4% of relative CALB activity to buffer medium at 25 °C and 50 °C, respectively. Simulation results revealed the improvement of CALB's enzymatic activities by [AA]- with a strong hydrophobic character. Shielding of CALB from water molecules by [AA]- was observed. The level of CALB activity was governed by accumulation level of [AA]- at CALB's first hydration layer. The stronger interaction between His224 and Asp187 was postulated to be driven by [Cho][AA], resulting in the activity enhancement of CALB. The slight improvement of CALB activity in 0.05 M [Cho][Phe] at 50 °C could be due to the larger size of entrance to the catalytic site and the stronger interaction between the catalytic residues. The promising effect of [Cho][Phe] on CALB activation may stimulate research efforts in designing a 'fully green' bioreaction for various industrial applications.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 9:805059. [PMID: 35127674 PMCID: PMC8814584 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2021.805059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 11/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Motivation: α-Tocopherol is a molecule obtained primarily from plant sources that are important for the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry. However, this component has some limitations such as sensitivity to oxygen, presence of light, and high temperatures. For this molecule to become more widely used, it is important to carry out a structural modification so that there is better stability and thus it can carry out its activities. To carry out this structural modification, some modifications are carried out, including the application of biotransformation using enzymes as biocatalysts. Thus, the application of a computational tool that helps in understanding the transport mechanisms of molecules in the tunnels present in the enzymatic structures is of fundamental importance because it promotes a computational screening facilitating bench applications. Objective: The aim of this work was to perform a computational analysis of the biotransformation of α-tocopherol into tocopherol esters, observing the tunnels present in the enzymatic structures as well as the energies which correspond to the transport of molecules. Method: To carry out this work, 9 lipases from different organisms were selected; their structures were analyzed by identifying the tunnels (quantity, conformation, and possibility of transport) and later the calculations of substrate transport for the biotransformation reaction in the identified tunnels were carried out. Additionally, the transport of the product obtained in the reaction through the tunnels was also carried out. Results: In this work, the quantity of existing tunnels in the morphological conformational characteristics in the lipases was verified. Thus, the enzymes with fewer tunnels were RML (3 tunnels), LBC and RNL (4 tunnels), PBLL (5 tunnels), CALB (6 tunnels), HLG (7 tunnels), and LCR and LTL (8 tunnels) and followed by the enzyme LPP with the largest number of tunnels (39 tunnels). However, the enzyme that was most likely to transport substrates in terms of α-tocopherol biotransformation (in relation to the Emax and Ea energies of ligands and products) was CALB, as it obtains conformational and transport characteristics of molecules with a particularity. The most conditions of transport analysis were α-tocopherol tunnel 3 (Emax: −4.6 kcal/mol; Ea: 1.1 kcal/mol), vinyl acetate tunnel 1 (Emax: −2.4 kcal/mol; Ea: 0.1 kcal/mol), and tocopherol acetate tunnel 2 (Emax: −3.7 kcal/mol; Ea: 2 kcal/mol).

Abstract
Lipases are ubiquitously used in chemo-enzymatic synthesis and industrial applications. Nevertheless, the modulation of the activity of lipases by organic solvents still is not fully understood at the molecular level. We systematically investigated the activity and structure of lipase A from Bacillus subtilis in binary water-organic solvent mixtures of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetonitrile (ACN), and isopropyl alcohol (IPA) using activity assays, fluorescence spectroscopy, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and FRET/MD analysis. The enzymatic activity strongly depended on the type and amount of organic solvent in the reaction media. Whereas IPA and ACN reduced the activity of the enzyme, small concentrations of DMSO led to lipase activation via an uncompetitive mechanism. DMSO molecules did not directly interfere with the binding of the substrate in the active site, contrary to what is known for other solvents and enzymes. We propose that the His156-Asp133 interaction, the binding of organic molecules to the active site, and the water accessibility of the substrate are key factors modulating the catalytic activity. Furthermore, we rationalized the role of solvent descriptors on the regulation of enzymatic activity in mixtures with low concentrations of the organic molecule, with prospective implications for the optimization of biocatalytic processes via solvent tuning.

Abstract
Enzyme activity in nonaqueous media (e.g. conventional organic solvents) is typically lower than in water by several orders of magnitude. There is a rising interest of developing new nonaqueous solvent systems that are more "water-like" and more biocompatible. Therefore, we need to learn from the current state of nonaqueous biocatalysis to overcome its bottleneck and provide guidance for new solvent design. This review firstly focuses on the discussion of how organic solvent properties (such as polarity and hydrophobicity) influence the enzyme activity and stability, and how these properties impact the enzyme's conformation and dynamics. While hydrophobic organic solvents usually lead to the maintenance of enzyme activity, solvents carrying functional groups like hydroxys and ethers (including crown ethers and cyclodextrins) can lead to enzyme activation. Ionic liquids (ILs) are designable solvents that can conveniently incorporate these functional groups. Therefore, we systematically survey these ether- and/or hydroxy-functionalized ILs, and find most of them are highly compatible with enzymes leading to high activity and stability. In particular, ILs carrying both ether and tert-alcohol groups are among the most enzyme-activating solvents. Future direction is to learn from enzyme behaviors in both water and nonaqueous media to design biocompatible "water-like" solvents.

Abstract
By mimicking the water structure to improve the enzyme activity, we designed imidazolium (Im)-based ionic liquids (ILs) functionalized with both ether and tert-alcohol groups (e.g., [CH3(OCH2CH2) n -Im-t-BuOH][Tf2N]). This unique combination of the "water-like" structure enabled very high transesterification (synthetic) activities for immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica, which are up to 2-4 folds higher than nonfunctionalized "classical" ionic liquids (such as [BMIM][Tf2N]) and up to 40-100% higher than diisopropyl ether and tert-butanol. Fluorescence emission spectra confirmed the general protein structural preservation in these tailored ionic solvents. In addition, functionalized ILs showed high thermal stabilities, which are comparable with diisopropyl ether but much higher than tert-butanol.

Abstract
Bixin is one of the most used yellow-orange food colorants in the food industry. The polyene chain of bixin makes it highly hydrophobic and less suitable for water-based food formulations. Lipase-catalyzed reactions of bixin with sorbitol were studied to synthesize a new derivative of bixin with potential hydrophilic properties. Interestingly, we show that the lipase-catalyzed reaction of bixin leads to a transesterification reaction and formation of a transesterified product, sorbitol ester of norbixin (SEN). The reaction efficiency was optimized with various immobilized lipases at different water activity levels in the organic solvent, 2-methyl-2-butanol. Among the examined lipases, immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozyme 435) provided the highest reaction yield at a water activity close to zero. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was used as co-solvent to improve bixin solubility. The optimization of the reaction conditions with 20% THF lead to a total reaction yield of 50% of SEN.

Abstract
The use of enzymes in non-aqueous solvents expands the use of biocatalysts to hydrophobic substrates, with the ability to tune selectivity of reactions through solvent selection. Non-aqueous enzymology also allows for fundamental studies on the role of water and other solvents in enzyme structure, dynamics, and function. Molecular dynamics simulations serve as a powerful tool in this area, providing detailed atomic information about the effect of solvents on enzyme properties. However, a common protocol for non-aqueous enzyme simulations does not exist. If you want to simulate enzymes in non-aqueous solutions, how many and which crystallographic waters do you keep? In the present work, this question is addressed by determining which crystallographic water molecules lead most quickly to an equilibrated protein structure. Five different methods of selecting and keeping crystallographic waters are used in order to discover which crystallographic waters lead the protein structure to reach an equilibrated structure more rapidly in organic solutions. It is found that buried waters contribute most to rapid equilibration in organic solvent, with slow-diffusing waters giving similar results.

Abstract
Candida antarctica lipase B (CalB) is one of the most useful enzyme for various reactions and bioconversions. Enhancing thermostability of CalB is required for industrial applications. In this study, we propose a computational design strategy to improve the thermostability of CalB. Molecular dynamics simulations at various temperatures were used to investigate the common fluctuation sites in CalB, which are considered to be thermally weak points. The RosettaDesign algorithm was used to design the selected residues. The redesigned CalB was simulated to verify both the enhancement of intramolecular interactions and the lowering of the overall root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) values. The A251E mutant designed using this strategy showed a 2.5-fold higher thermostability than the wild-type CalB. This strategy could apply to other industry applicable enzymes.
