Efficient enzymatic synthesis of l -rhamnulose and l -fuculose
摘要:
L-Rhamnulose (6-deoxy-L-arabino-2-hexulose) and L-fuculose (6-deoxy-L-lyxo-2-hexulose) were prepared from L-rhamnose and L-fucose by a two-step strategy. In the first reaction step, isomerization of L-rhamnose to L-rhamnulose, or L-fucose to L-fuculose was combined with a targeted phosphorylation reaction catalyzed by L-rhamnulose kinase (RhaB). The by-products (ATP and ADP) were selectively removed by silver nitrate precipitation method. In the second step, the phosphate group was hydrolyzed to produce L-rhamnulose or L-fuculose with purity exceeding 99% in more than 80% yield (gram scale). (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Fuculose phosphate aldolases play an important role in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis pathways. L-fuculose 1-phosphatealdolase catalyzes the reversible cleavage of L-fuculose 1-phosphate to DHAP and L-lactaldehyde. Class II aldolases found in bacteria are linked to pathogenesis of human pathogens, and have potential applications in the biosynthesis of carbohydrates and other chiral compounds. Here
