چکیده

We report the first example of direct electrochemical regeneration of a flavin-dependent monooxygenase for asymmetric epoxidation catalysis. It is shown that electrochemical regeneration of the oxygenase subunit of the multicomponent styrene monooxygenase is sufficient to perform enantiospecific S-epoxidation of various styrene derivatives. Kinetic bottlenecks of the novel electroenzymatic reaction are identified. This work opens up new alternatives for asymmetric oxyfunctionalization catalysis.

NADH availability limits asymmetric biocatalytic epoxidation in a growing recombinant Escherichia coli strain.

Styrene can efficiently be oxidized to (S)-styrene oxide by recombinant Escherichia coli expressing the styrene monooxygenase genes styAB from Pseudomonas sp. strain VLB120. Targeting microbial physiology during whole-cell redox biocatalysis, we investigated the interdependency of styrene epoxidation, growth, and carbon metabolism on the basis of mass balances obtained from continuous two-liqui...

Engineered P450pyr monooxygenase for asymmetric epoxidation of alkenes with unique and high enantioselectivity.

A triple mutant of P450pyr monooxygenase (P450pyrTM) catalysed the epoxidation of several para-substituted styrenes as the first enzyme showing high (R)-enantioselectivity and high conversion, demonstrated a broad substrate range, and showed high enantioselectivity for the epoxidation of an unconjugated 1,1-disubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-3-phenyl-1-propene, and a cyclic alkene, N-phenoxycarbony...

Asymmetric dihydroxylation of aryl olefins by sequential enantioselective epoxidation and regioselective hydrolysis with tandem biocatalysts.

Chiral aryl vicinal diols were obtained in high ee and yield by asymmetric dihydroxylation of aryl olefins with tandem biocatalysts: one contains an enantioselective styrene monooxygenase, and the other contains a regioselective epoxide hydrolase.

Biocatalytic hydroxylation of n-butane with in situ cofactor regeneration at low temperature and under normal pressure

The hydroxylation of n-alkanes, which proceeds in the presence of a P450-monooxygenase advantageously at temperatures significantly below room temperature, is described. In addition, an enzymatic hydroxylation of the "liquid gas" n-butane with in situ cofactor regeneration, which does not require high-pressure conditions, was developed. The resulting 2-butanol was obtained as the only regioisom...

Rapid and sensitive monitoring of biocatalytic reactions using ion mobility mass spectrometry.

The combination of stable isotope labelling with direct infusion ion mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS) enabled qualitative and quantitative monitoring of biocatalytic reactions with reduced analysis times, enhanced sensitivity and μL-level assay volumes. The new approach was demonstrated by applying to both lipase and monooxygenase enzymes, including multi-substrate screening.
