Enhanced enantioselectivity of Bacillus coagulans in the hydrolysis of 1,2-O-isopropylidene glycerol esters by thermal knock-out of undesired enzymes
摘要:
The enantioselective hydrolysis of different (RS)-1,2-O-isopropylidene glycerol esters has been achieved with whole cells of Bacillus coagulans NCIMB 9365 furnishing the (S)-alcohol as the major enantiomer. The reaction is catalysed by a thermostable cell-bound carboxylesterase and improvement of the enantioselectivity has been achieved by heat treatment of the whole cells, which causes the knock-outs a non-enantioselective competing enzyme. Thermally-treated cells hydrolysed (RS)-1,2-O-isopropylidene glycerol esters with high enantioselectivity, the highest enantiomeric ratio (80-100) being observed for the benzoate. The biocatalyst displayed good stability and could be re-used after filtration for 12 cycles before showing significant loss of activity; repeated biotransformation batches allowed the recovery of 9.55 g/L of enantiomerically pure (S)-isopropylideneglycerol benzoate starting from 24.0 g/L of the racemic mixture.

Chirazyme L-2 (Candida antarctica) catalyzed esterification of glycerol with aromatic and aliphatic anhydrides in 1,4-dioxane is described. All the aromatic monoacylglycerols (MAGs) were produced as (R)-enantiomers, while aliphatic MAGs were obtained either as racemic mixtures or the (S)-enantiomers. The influence of substituted aromatic rings, chain length, and presence of a conjugated double bond in the acyl donor moiety on the enantiotopic selectivity as well as the efficiency of the enzyme was studied.
