Description

Ketoreductase and application thereof in synthesis of chiral lactone
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biochemical engineering, in particular to ketoreductase and application thereof in synthesizing chiral lactone, and specifically relates to ketoreductase and a gene sequence thereof, recombinant expression plasmid and recombinant expression transformant containing the gene sequence, and application of ketoreductase and freeze-dried enzyme powder of glucose dehydrogenase in catalytic preparation of (S) -gamma-decalactone and (S) -delta-decalactone.
Background
Chiral aliphatic gamma-and delta-lactones and derivatives thereof are key chiral components of many natural products and drugs. For example, gamma-and delta-decalactones resulting from cyclization of gamma-and delta-hydroxy acids/esters are widely used fragrances and perfumes in the food industry. The chemical structure has different chiral configurations, so that the aromatic characteristics are different. These lactones find a wide variety of commercial uses in perfumery and perfumery, in particular delta-decalactone, a common perfumery compound, the (S) -enantiomer exhibiting a significantly more intense starchy taste than the (R) -enantiomer. Furthermore, gamma-decalactone is also very important in perfumery applications, with a global annual market size of hundreds of tons. (R) -gamma-decalactone has the aroma of coconut, fruit fat, while (S) -gamma-decalactone has the soft aroma of coconut, caramel, fat and fruit. Chiral lactones tend to have purer flavor profiles compared to racemic lactones. By adjusting the composition ratio of the (R) form and the (S) form, different flavor characteristics can be obtained. In apricot, peach, raspberry, strawberry, plum, mango, passion fruit, fruit juice, wine and wine, specific and characteristic enantiomer ratios of lactones have been reported. Interestingly, gamma-and delta-decalactones also possess a broad range of antimicrobial activity. For example, gamma-and delta-decalactones have been reported to inhibit the growth of certain filamentous fungi (Aspergillus niger, etc.), yeasts (Candida albicans, etc.), and bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, etc.). The inhibitory activity of the lactone enantiomer was different. The (S) -gamma-decalactone has a longer lasting effect than (R) -gamma-decalactone, and can last for at least 24 hours.
The preparation method of chiral decalactone mainly comprises chemical method and biological method. Chemical methods mainly include noble metal and organometallic catalytic methods, such as Arai et al, which synthesize chiral aromatic lactones and diol compounds using ruthenium catalysts by changing reaction conditions; meninno et al developed an organometallic catalyst quinine for the synthesis of chiral ketoester compounds. Noble metal and organometallic catalysis, while effective methods for stereoselective synthesis of hydroxy esters, require harsh reaction conditions such as pressure, temperature, etc., and are not environmentally friendly. The use of biocatalytically synthesized optically active gamma-and delta-decalactones in the food and cosmetic industries is of increasing interest. Compared with chemical catalysis, the biocatalysis method has the advantages of high stereoselectivity, mild condition, low cost and the like. Because of the longer carbon chain, the longer carbonyl position, the stereoselective reduction of long chain alkyl gamma-/delta-keto acids/esters remains challenging. Biological processes mainly include whole-cell bioconversion and enzymatic processes, and in the early 60 s of the 20 th century, wild type s.cerevisiae was able to convert gamma-and delta-keto acids into optically pure hydroxy acids. However, cloning and expression of enzymes responsible for catalyzing reactions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has not been successful. Whole cell bioconversion processes produce large amounts of fermentation byproducts and the product lactones are also toxic to yeast cells. In order to solve the problems of the above methods, the enzymatic synthesis of decalactone is an effective approach, and has been receiving more and more attention.
(1) As early as the 60 s of the 20 th century, the conversion of gamma-and delta-keto acids into optically pure hydroxy acids by wild-type Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been shown to give R-type chiral lactones at substrate concentrations of 6mM. (NATURE 1962,194,995-996)
(2) Oscar et al carried out kinetic resolution of racemic delta-hydroxy esters by lipase-catalyzed transesterification, combining the enzymatic kinetic resolution with ruthenium-catalyzed alcohol racemization. (JOURNALOF ORGANICCHEMISTRY,2002,67 (4): 1261-1265)
(3) In 2014, diaz-Rodriguez, alba et al prepared optically pure short chain gamma-and delta-hydroxy esters and lactones by a chemical-enzymatic cascade, with a product configuration of S, an ee of 67% and a substrate concentration of 50mM. (CHEMCATCHEM, 2014,6 (4): 977-980)
(4) In 2016, boratynski, F.et al synthesized enantiomerically enriched gamma-and delta-decalactones from the corresponding racemic primary-secondary 1, 4-and 1, 5-diols under catalytic oxidation by various alcohol dehydrogenases. (PLOS ONE,2016.11 (1))
(5) In 2017 ChaoZhang et al, from Serratiamarces, found a first carbonyl reductase SmCR, such as (R) -gamma-/delta-decalactones, which was capable of converting a linear long-chain gamma/delta-keto acid to the corresponding gamma-/delta-lactone, with an enantioselectivity of up to 99% (R). (CATALYSIS COMMUNICATION,2017, 102:35-39)
(6) In 2019, mengChen et al modified carbonyl reductase SmCR to obtain mutant SmCR v4, which can effectively and stereoselectively synthesize various gamma-and delta-lactones, wherein the product configuration is R, the ee value of gamma-decalactone is >99%, the ee value of delta-decalactone is 95%, the substrate concentration is up to 1M, and the space-time yield of (R) -gamma-decalactone is 1175g/L/d. (CHEMCATCHEM, 2019,11 (11): 2600-2606)
(7) 2021, TaoWang et al obtained carbonyl reductase variant SmCR M5 by directed evolution of SmCR v4 structure orientation. The mutant has improved specific activity to 16 detected substrates, and has stereoselectivity as high as 99% in asymmetric synthesis of 13 gamma-/delta-lactones. In particular, the enzyme activity of the model substrate 5-oxo capric acid is improved by 13.8 times, and the (R) -delta-decalactone is obtained with the stereoselectivity of 99 percent. (CHEMICALCOMMUNICATIONS, 2021.57 (81): p.10584-10587)
(8) 2021, ChunleiRen et al successfully found two carbonyl reductases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, odCR and OdCR, which produced optically pure (R) -gamma and (R) -delta-lactones by intramolecular cyclization from asymmetric reduction of chiral hydroxy acids from gamma and delta-keto acids/esters. (CHINESEJOURNALOF CHEMICALENGINEERING, 2021.29:305-310)
(9) 2023, Chu et al isolated a novel olefin reductase (SsER) from Swingsiasamuensis, combined with carbonyl reductase SsCR, and synthesized optically pure tobacco lactones and whiskey lactones from α, β -unsaturated γ -ketoesters. (CHINESECHEMICALLETTERS, 2023:108896)
Although the whole cell and enzyme preparation methods reported above can be used for preparing chiral decalactone, most of researches have the stereoselectivity of R-decalactone, the chiral synthesis of R-decalactone has relatively more researches, and the current asymmetric enzyme synthesis of S-decalactone has lower selectivity, and the related researches of the high-selectivity enzyme synthesis of S-decalactone are also relatively less.

After the reaction, a 20% sulfuric acid solution was added to adjust the pH to 1-2, and the mixture was heated at 90℃for 2 hours to complete the lactonization reaction, and after the sample was treated, gas phase detection was performed.
From Table 7, it can be seen that the mutants had greater conversion than WT and HbKRRT had 89.0% conversion of 10mM 5-oxodecanoic acid in the IPA-coupled self-sufficient cofactor regeneration system, whereas HbKR V1 and HbKR V2 were capable of fully converting 10mM 5-oxodecanoic acid in the IPA-coupled self-sufficient cofactor regeneration system. In the GDH coupled cofactor regeneration system, hbKR V2 to 100mM conversion of 5-oxo-decanoic acid was able to reach 90.4% in 1h, with a stereoselectivity greater than 99% (S).
