A PLP-dependent Mannich cyclase LolT is repurposed for α-deuteration of amino acids. Complete deuteration can be achieved with diverse L-amino acids bearing assorted functional groups, e. g. from lysine to glutamic acid. The broad substratescope and strict stereoselectivity make LolT a powerful biocatalyst for preparation of α-deuterated L-amino acids.
