Biocatalytic Friedel-Crafts alkylation using non-natural cofactors.
The formation of C C bonds is a central aspect of synthetic organic chemistry. However, in biocatalysis only few enzymes capable to perform this reaction are known, among which aldolases, transketolases, and hydroxynitril lyases have been investigated thoroughly. Some have even found their way into industrial applications. Friedel–Crafts alkylation is a classic organic reaction of great importa...
متن کاملPromiscuous Aggregate-Based Inhibitors Promote Enzyme Unfolding
One of the leading sources of false positives in early drug discovery is the formation of organic small molecule aggregates, which inhibit enzymes nonspecifically at micromolar concentrations in aqueous solution. The molecular basis for this widespread problem remains hazy. To investigate the mechanism of inhibition at a molecular level, we determined changes in solvent accessibility that occur...
متن کاملBiocatalytic production of chitosan polymers from shrimp shells, using a recombinant enzyme produced by pichia pastoris
Chitosan has a unique chemical structure with high charge density, reactive hydroxyl and amino groups, and extensive hydrogen bonding. Chitin deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.41) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the N-acetamido groups of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitin, converting it to chitosan and releasing acetate. The entire ORF of the CDA2 gene encoding one of the two isoforms of chitin deacetyl...
متن کاملPhenotypic Constraints and Phenotypic Hitchhiking in a Promiscuous Enzyme
Covarying phenotypic traits can limit natural selection’s ability to modify these traits. Most evolutionary studies on trait covariation use the comparative method to study complex traits of multicellular organisms. Simpler traits have the advantage of being amenable to experimental evolution. Here we study such a simple molecular system, the TEM-1 beta-lactamase protein, a promiscuous enzyme t...
متن کاملReusable biocatalytic crosslinked microparticles self-assembled from enzyme-nanoparticle complexes.
Emulsions stabilized by enzyme-nanoparticle (NP) complexes were used to fabricate robust biocatalytic scaffolds after core solidification via crosslinking. These biocatalysts feature ease of formation, high retention of enzymatic activity and reusability.
