Penicillin acylase (PA) is used in the industrial production of 6-amino penicillanic acid (6-APA). However, by proper control of reaction medium, the enzyme can be used in the reverse synthesis of β-lactam antibiotics from the corresponding β-lactam nuclei and suitable acyl donors. Under thermodynamically controlled strategy, the use of organic cosolvents can favor synthesis over hydrolysis by lowering water activity and favoring the non-ionic reactive species. Under kinetically controlled strategy using activated acyl donors, organic solvents can favor synthesis by depressing hydrolytic reactions. Results are presented on the synthesis of ampicillin from phenylglycine methyl ester and 6-APA with immobilized Escherichia coli PA in the presence of organic cosolvents. Several solvents were tested in terms of enzyme stability and solubility of substrates. Ethylene glycol, glycerol, 1–2 propanediol and 1–3 butanediol were selected accordingly and ampicillin synthesis was performed in all of them. Best results in terms of yield and productivity were obtained with ethylene glycol, with which further studies were conducted. Variables studied were enzyme to limiting substrate ratio, acyl acceptor to acyl donor ratio, organic solvent concentration, pH and temperature. Experimental design based on a two-level fractional factorial design was conducted. pH was determined as the most sensitive variable and was further optimized. The best conditions for ampicillin synthesis in terms of productivity, within the range of values studied for those variables, were pH 7.4, 28°C, 36 US PA/mmol 6-APA, 3 mol PGME/mol 6-APA and 45 % (v/v) ethylene glycol concentration. Productivity was 7.66 mM ampicillin/h, which corresponds to a specific productivity of 7.02 μmol ampicillin/h US at 55 % yield. Productivity was lower than in buffer but product yield was higher because of the much lower relative hydrolysis rates.  相似文献

The efficient enzymatic synthesis of amoxicillin using anhydrous tert-pentanol as a novel media has been demonstrated for the first time. p-OH-Phenylglycine methyl ester (HPGM) was selected as the activated acyl donor due to its good solubility in organic solvents. The screening results of 21 organic solvents showed that solvents with either strong polarity or poor substrate solubility were unfavorable. Remarkable catalytic activity of the immobilized penicillin acylase (IPA) from Escherichia coli was retained in tert-pentanol, and high yield could be obtained. Effects of various parameters such as acyl donor, water content or cosolvents of tert-pentanol, substrate concentration, temperature, etc., on the enzymatic synthesis of amoxicillin in tert-pentanol were investigated systematically. The best reaction medium, the optimal temperature, initial concentration of 6-APA and HPGM and concentration of enzyme were tert-pentanol, 15 °C, 100, 200 mM and 20 IU/mL, respectively. Under the optimal conditions, the yield of amoxicillin was as high as 88% after a reaction time of 20 h.  相似文献

Enzymatic synthesis of cefaclor by penicillin acylase (PA) was carried out under kinetic control with in situ product removal (ISPR). We present a continuous acyl donor feeding strategy for enzymatic reactions. Using this strategy, the conversion of the antibiotic nucleus was improved from 65 to 91%, and the hydrolysis of phenylglycine methyl ester (PGME) was decreased. Side product (phenylglycine) production was less than half of that in the control batch. The ratio of synthesis to hydrolysis (S/H) in the process was kept stable for longer and at a higher level than in the control. This is a practical method for enzymatic synthesis of cefaclor.  相似文献

A significant problem in the enzymatic production of the beta-lactam antibiotic amoxicillin from 6-Aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) and p-hydroxyphenylglycine methyl ester (HPGM) is the enzymatic hydrolysis of both HPGM and amoxicillin. Here we show that APA is able to competitively inhibit the hydrolysis of HPGM, with a Michaelis-Menten inhibition constant Ki of 7.23mM. While this phenomenon also results in a slowdown of the amoxicillin rate of formation, the S/H (synthesis to hydrolysis ratio) rate is improved. We found that this S/H rate depends directly on the ratio of the two substrates rather than their absolute concentrations. A doubling in S/H rate was obtained by decreasing the HPGM to APA ratio from 3 to 0.5.  相似文献

The penicillin acylase-catalyzed synthesis of ampicillin by acyl transfer from D-(-)-phenylglycine amide (D-PGA) to 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) becomes more effective when a judiciously chosen pH gradient is applied in the course of the process. This reaction concept is based on two experimental observations: 1) The ratio of the initial synthesis and hydrolysis rates (V(S)/V(H)) is pH-dependent and exhibits a maximum at pH 6.5-7.0 for a saturated solution of 6-APA; 2) at a fixed 6-APA concentration below saturation, V(S)/V(H) increases with decreasing pH. Optimum synthetic efficiency could, therefore, be achieved by starting with a concentrated 6-APA solution at pH 7 and gradually decreasing the pH to 6.3 in the course of 6-APA consumption. A conversion of 96% of 6-APA and 71% of D-PGA into ampicillin was accomplished in an optimized procedure, which significantly exceeds the efficiency of enzymatic synthesis performed at a constant pH of either 7.0 or 6.3.  相似文献

Abstract

Enzymatic synthesis of penicillin V (penV) by acylation of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) was carried out using methyl phenoxyacetate (MPOA) as activated acyl donor and soluble penicillin acylase from Streptomyces lavendulae (SlPVA) as biocatalyst. The effect of different reaction conditions on penV synthesis was investigated, such as enzyme concentration, pH, molar ratio of 6-APA to MPOA, as well as presence of DMSO as water-miscible co-solvent at different concentrations. Time-course profiles of all reactions followed the typical pattern of kinetically controlled synthesis (KCS) of β-lactam antibiotics: penV concentration reached a maximum (highest yield or Ymax) and then decreased gradually. Such maximum was higher at pH 7.0, observing that final penV concentration was abruptly reduced when basic pH values were employed in the reaction. Under the selected conditions (100?mM Tris/HCl buffer pH 7.0, 30?°C, 2.7% (v/v) DMSO, 20?mM MPOA, 0.3 UI/ml of SlPVA), Ymax was enhanced by increasing the substrate molar ratio (6-APA to MPOA) up to 5, reaching a maximum of 94.5% and a S/H value of 16.4 (ratio of synthetic activity to hydrolytic activity). As a consequence, the use of an excess of 6-APA as nucleophile has allowed us to obtain some of the highest Ymax and S/H values among those reported in literature for KCS of β-lactam antibiotics. Although many penicillin G acylases (PGAs) have been described in kinetically controlled acylations, SlPVA should be considered as a different enzyme in the biocatalytic tool-box for novel potential synthetic processes, mainly due to its different substrate specificity compared to PGAs.  相似文献

Hydrophobic protein chromatography was used to prepare homogeneous fractions of penicillin amidase (EC 3.5.1.11) from E. coli. The apparent ratios of the rate constants for the deacylation of the acyl-penicillin amidase formed in the hydrolysis of phenylacetylglycine or D-phenylglycine methyl ester, by H2O and 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA), were determined at different concentrations of the latter compound. The ratios were obtained from direct measurements of the initial rates of formation of phenylacetic acid and benzylpenicillin or D-phenylglycine and ampicillin. For the semisynthesis of ampicillin as well as of benzylpenicillin the ratio was found to depend on the concentration of 6-APA. This was observed for heterogeneous and homogeneous enzyme preparations. These results show that 6-APA must be bound to the acyl-enzyme before the deacylation, yielding ampicillin and benzylpenicillin, occurs. The dissociation constant KN for the formation of the complex was estimated to be approximately 10mM. This mechanism in which acyl-enzyme with and without bound nucleophile is involved, is in agreement with the principle of microscopic reversibility. Both acyl-enzymes can be deacylated by H2O. The finding that there is a specific binding site for 6-APA adjacent to the binding site for the phenylacetyl-(D-phenylglycyl-) group in the active site of the enzyme is supported by the observation that 6-APA acts as a mixed inhibitor in the hydrolysis of D-phenylglycine methyl ester. The ionic strength dependence indicates that the binding site for 6-APA of the acyl-enzyme is positively charged.  相似文献

There is a marked trend in pharmaceutical industry towards the replacement of classical organic methods by “green” alternatives that minimize or eliminate the generation of waste and avoid, where possible, the use of toxic and/or hazardous reagents and solvents. In this work the kinetically controlled synthesis of cephalexin by soluble and penicillin G acylase immobilized in sol–gel micro‐particles with magnetic properties was performed in aqueous media with PGME and 7‐ADCA as substrates, at different concentrations of substrate, temperature, pH, enzyme to substrate ratio and acyl donor to nucleophile ratio. Excess acyl donor had a strong effect on cephalexin productivity. A PGME/7‐ADCA ratio of 3 was considered optimum. A maximum specific productivity of at 160 mM 7‐ADCA, 480 mM PGME and low enzyme to substrate ratio at 32.5 U mmol?1 7‐ADCA was obtained with immobilized PGA in full aqueous medium, suggesting that diffusional limitations were minimized when compared with other commercial biocatalysts. A half‐life of 133 h for the immobilized biocatalyst was estimated during cephalexin synthesis in the presence of 100 mM 7‐ADCA and 300 mM PGME, in 50 mM Tris/HCl at pH 7.2 and 14°C. These results compare quite favorably with those previously reported for the kinetically controlled synthesis of cephalexin. Biotechnol.

Kinetic regularities of the enzymatic acyl group transfer reactions have been studied using ampicillin synthesis catalyzed by E. coli penicillin acylase as an example. It was shown that ampicillin synthesis proceeds through the formation of an acylenzyme–nucleophile complex capable of undergoing hydrolysis. The relative nucleophile reactivity of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) is a complex parameter dependent on the nucleophile concentration. The kinetic analysis showed that the maximum yield of antibiotic being synthesized depended only on the nucleophile reactivity of 6-APA, the ratio between the enzyme reactivities with respect to the target product and acyl donor, and the initial concentrations of reagents. The parameters characterizing the nucleophile reactivity of 6-APA have been determined. The algorithm of modeling the enzymatic synthesis has been elaborated. The proposed algorithm allows the kinetics of the process not only in homogeneous, but also in heterogeneous (aqueous solution–precipitate) systems to be quantitatively predicted and described based on experimental values of parameters of the reaction. It was shown that in heterogeneous aqueous solution–precipitate systems PA-catalyzed ampicillin synthesis proceeds much more efficiently compared to the homogeneous solution.  相似文献

The present work focuses on the development and basic characterization of a new magnetic biocatalyst, namely penicillin G acylase (PGA), immobilized in sol-gel matrices with magnetic properties, ultimately aimed for application in cephalexin (CEX) synthesis. A mechanically stable carrier, based on porous xerogels silica matrixes starting from tetramethoxysilane (TMOS), was prepared leading to micro-carriers with medium sized particles of 30 μm, as determined by scanning electron microscopy. An immobilization yield of 95–100% and a recovered activity of 50–65% at 37°C, as determined by penicillin G (PG) hydrolysis (pH STAT method), were observed. These results clearly exceed those reported in a previous work on PGA immobilization in sol-gel, where only 10% of activity was recovered. The values of activity were kept constant for 6 months. Immobilized PGA (682 U/gdry weight) retained high specific activity throughout ten consecutive runs for PG hydrolysis, suggesting adequate biocatalyst stability. The CEX synthesis was performed at 14°C, using the free and immobilized PGA in aqueous medium. Phenylglycine methyl ester was used as acyl donor at 90 mM and 7-aminodeacetoxycephalosporanic acid was the limiting substrate at 30 mM. The CEX stoichiometric yield after 1-h reaction was close to 68% (23 mM CEX/h) and 65% (19 mM CEX/h), respectively.  相似文献

Competition with well-established, fine-tuned chemical processes is a major challenge for the industrial implementation of the enzymatic synthesis of beta-lactam antibiotics. Enzyme-based routes are acknowledged as an environmental-friendly approach, avoiding organochloride solvents and working at room temperatures. Among different alternatives, the kinetically controlled synthesis, using immobilized penicillin G acylase (PGA) in aqueous environment, with the simultaneous crystallization of the product, is the most promising one. However, PGA may act either as a transferase or as a hydrolase, catalyzing two undesired side reactions: the hydrolysis of the acyl side-chain precursor (an ester or amide, a parallel reaction) and the hydrolysis of the antibiotic itself (a consecutive reaction). This review focuses specially on aspects of the reactions' kinetics that may affect the performance of the enzymatic reactor.  相似文献

The synthesis of ampicillin catalyzed by Escherichia coli penicillin acylase was optimized in an aqueous system with partially dissolved antibiotic nucleus 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA). The yields of both 6-APA and acyl donor could be improved by repetitively adding substrates to the reaction, allowing the concentration of 6-APA to remain saturated throughout. In this reaction concept, with four subsequent additions of substrates, 97% conversion of 6-APA and 72% of D-(-)-phenylglycine methyl ester (D-PGM) to ampicillin was achieved. The synthetic potential of this concept was estimated using a mathematical model which showed that by increasing the amount of added substrates a nearly quantitative conversion of 6-APA and 85% conversion of acyl donor into ampicillin could be achieved.  相似文献

Advantages of performing penicillin acylase-catalyzed synthesis of new penicillins and cephalosporins by enzymatic acyl transfer to the beta-lactam antibiotic nuclei in the supersaturated solutions of substrates have been demonstrated. It has been shown that the effective nucleophile reactivity of 6-aminopenicillanic (6-APA) and 7-aminodesacetoxycephalosporanic (7-ADCA) acids in their supersaturated solutions continue to grow proportionally to the nucleophile concentration. As a result, synthesis/hydrolysis ratio in the enzymatic synthesis can be significantly (up to three times) increased due to the nucleophile supersaturation. In the antibiotic nuclei conversion to the target antibiotic the remarkable improvement (up to 14%) has been gained. Methods of obtaining relatively stable supersaturated solutions of 6-APA, 7-ADCA, and D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine amide (D-HPGA) have been developed and syntheses of ampicillin, amoxicillin, and cephalexin starting from the supersaturated homogeneous solutions of substrates were performed. Higher synthetic efficiency and increased productivity of these reactions compared to the heterogeneous "aqueous solution-precipitate" systems were observed. The suggested approach seems to be an effective solution for the aqueous synthesis of the most widely requested beta-lactam antibiotics (i.e., amoxicillin, cephalexin, cephadroxil, cephaclor, etc.).  相似文献

An enzymatic system for poly gamma-glutamate (PGA) synthesis in Bacillus subtilis, the PgsBCA system, was investigated. The gene-disruption experiment showed that the enzymatic system was the sole machinery of PGA synthesis in B. subtilis. We succeeded in achieving the enzymatic synthesis of elongated PGAs with the cell membrane of the Escherichia coli clone producing PgsBCA in the presence of ATP and D-glutamate. The enzyme preparation solubilized from the membrane with 8 mM Chaps catalyzed ADP-forming ATP hydrolysis only in the presence of glutamate; the D-enantiomer was the best cosubstrate, followed by the L-enantiomer. Each component of the system, PgsB, PgsC, and PgsA, was translated in vitro and the glutamate-dependent ATPase reaction was kinetically analyzed. The PGA synthetase complex, PgsBCA, was suggested to be an atypical amide ligase.  相似文献

A new hydrophobic and catalytic membrane was prepared by immobilizing Penicillin G acylase (PGA, EC.3.5.1.11) from E. coli on a nylon membrane, chemically grafted with butylmethacrylate (BMA). Hexamethylenediamine (HMDA) and glutaraldehyde (Glu) were used as a spacer and coupling agent, respectively. PGA was used for the enzymatic synthesis of cephalexin, using D(-)-phenylglycine methyl ester (PGME) and 7-amino-3-deacetoxycephalosporanic acid (7-ADCA) as substrates. Several factors affecting this reaction, such as pH, temperature, and concentrations of substrates were investigated. The results indicated good enzyme-binding efficiency of the pre-treated membrane, and an increased stability of the immobilized PGA towards pH and temperature. Calculation of the activation energies showed that cephalexin production by the immobilized biocatalyst was limited by diffusion, resulting in a decrease of enzyme activity and substrate affinity. Temperature gradients were employed as a way to reduce the effects of diffusion limitation. Cephalexin was found to linearly increase with the applied temperature gradient. A temperature difference of about 3 degrees C across the catalytic membrane resulted into a cephalexin synthesis increase of 100% with a 50% reduction of the production times. The advantage of using non-isothermal bioreactors in biotechnological processes, including pharmaceutical applications, is also discussed.  相似文献

Yields of kinetically controlled synthesis of antibiotics catalyzed by penicillin G acylase from Escherichia coli (PGA) have been greatly increased by continuous extraction of water soluble products (cephalexin) away from the surroundings of the enzyme. In this way its very rapid enzymatic hydrolysis has been avoided. Enzymes covalently immobilized inside porous supports acting in aqueous two-phase systems have been used to achieve such improvements of synthetic yields. Before the reaction is started, the porous structure of the biocatalyst can be washed and filled with one selected phase. In this way, when the pre-equilibrated biocatalyst is mixed with the second phase (where the reaction product will be extracted), the immobilized enzyme remains in the first selected phase in spite of its possibly different natural trend. Partition coefficients (K) of cephalexin in very different aqueous two-phase systems were firstly evaluated. High K values were obtained under drastic conditions. The best K value for cephalexin (23) was found in 100% PEG 600-3 M ammonium sulfate where cephalexin was extracted to the PEG phase. Pre-incubation of immobilized PGA derivatives in ammonium sulfate and further suspension with 100% PEG 600 allowed us to obtain a 90% synthetic yield of cephalexin from 150 mM phenylglycine methyl ester and 100 mM 7-amino desacetoxicephalosporanic acid (7-ADCA). In this reaction system, the immobilized enzyme remains in the ammonium sulfate phase and hydrolysis of the antibiotic becomes suppressed because of its continuous extraction to the PEG phase. On the contrary, synthetic yields of a similar process carried out in monophasic systems were much lower (55%) because of a rapid enzymatic hydrolysis of cephalexin.  相似文献

Search for anti-beta-lactamase and synthesis of newer penicillin were suggested to overcome resistance to penicillin in chemotherapy. It was found that clavulanic acid, an ant-beta-lactamase was ineffective due to its structural modification by bacteria. Thus, there is a need for the synthesis of newer pencillins. Retro-synthesis was inspired by the success of forward reaction i.e.conversion of penicillin G to 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) by biological process. In the present study a better enzymatic method of synthesis of newer pencillin by a beta-lactamase-free penicillin amidase produced by Alcaligenes sp. is attempted. Antibacterial and toxicological evaluation of the enzymatically synthesized beta-lactams are reported. Condensation of 6-APA with acyl donor was found to be effective when the reaction is run in dimethyl formamide (DMF 50% v/v) in acetate buffer (25 mM pH 5.0) at 37 degrees C. Periplasm entrapped in calcium alginate exihibited the highest yield (approximately 34%) in synthesis. The minimum inhibitory concentration of the synthetic products against Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhi varied between 20-80 microg/ml. Some of the products exhibited antibacterial activity against enteric pathogens. It was interesting to note that product A was potent like penicillin G. LD50 value of three products (product A, B and C) was more than 12 mg/kg. Furthermore, these synthetic beta-lactams did not exihibit any adverse effect on house keeping enzymes viz., serum glutamate oxalacetate-trans-aminase, serum glutamate pyruvate -trans-aminase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase of the test animals. The hematological profile (RBC and WBC) of the test animals also remained unaffected.  相似文献

It has recently been shown that fatty acid vinyl esters serve as effective acylating agents for the synthesis of esters by enzymatic transesterification in high yields. To enhance the usefulness of this system at low temperatures, we have searched for the gene coding for a cold-active lipolytic enzyme with a substrate preference for fatty acid vinyl esters and obtained it from the genomic library of Acinetobacter sp. strain no. 6, a psychrotroph isolated from Siberian soil. The gene (termed aelh, 777 bp) encoded a protein of 258 amino acids, and sequence analysis revealed that the enzyme shows a high sequence similarity to β-ketoadipate enol-lactone hydrolase involved in the β-ketoadipate pathway for the bacterial catabolism of benzoic acid. The aelh gene was expressed in the E. coli C600 cells under the control of lac promoter and the expression product was purified to homogeneity and characterized. It was a monomeric esterase preferentially catalyzing the hydrolysis of enol esters, such as fatty acid vinyl esters with a short-chain acyl group. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, a specific inhibitor for serine hydrolases. The enzyme could also catalyze transesterification, for example, between vinyl propionate and propanol yielding propyl propionate at 4 °C. These results indicate the usefulness of an esterase (termed AELH) for the enzymatic synthesis of esters by transesterification using vinyl esters as an acyl donor.  相似文献
