Description

Transaminase mutant and application thereof in preparation of (S) -chroman-4-amine
Technical Field
The invention relates to an enzyme mutant, in particular to a transaminase mutant and application thereof in preparation of (S) -chroman-4-amine, and belongs to the technical fields of genetic engineering and enzyme engineering.
Background
Aminotransferase (TRANSAMINASE) is a class of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of amino acids from keto acids and is ubiquitous in animals, plant tissues and microorganisms. Transaminase is widely used in regioselective and stereoselective transamination reactions of substrates such as aliphatic and aromatic keto acids, aldehydes, ketones and ketoses, for the synthesis of chiral amines, amino acids and derivatives thereof. In industrial production, many drugs have developed a process for preparing a drug substance or an intermediate thereof using transaminase, for example, sitagliptin, a migraine drug for treating diabetes type ii, and zizanpam and ubenimpam. Transaminase is a key biotechnological enzyme in the asymmetric synthesis of chiral amine compounds and resolution of racemates of amine compounds.
Chiral amine is a compound with amino group connected to chiral center, and plays important role in biological genetic, metabolic and other physiological processes. As a structural unit widely existing in the nature, chiral amine has various biological activities and is applied to synthesis of a plurality of medicines and intermediates such as nerve medicines, antihypertensive medicines, anti-infective medicines and the like. It is counted that about 40% of the new drugs approved in recent years by the U.S. food and drug administration contain chiral amine structures. Because chiral amine medicines with different chiralities have remarkable differences in medicine safety, human metabolism and the like, how to efficiently and stereoselectively synthesize a single chiral amine medicine has important research significance in the fields of medicine innovation and production.
(S) -chroman-4-amines (US 2004/157739) are chiral amines which are key intermediates involved in the synthetic production of various drugs, for example the antihypertensive drug chroman-Carlin (Cromakalim) as a potassium channel agonist for the treatment of hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The (S) -chroman-4-amine is a colorless solid with molecular weight of 149.19, and can be dissolved in solvents such as methanol, dimethyl sulfoxide, etc. The synthesis of (S) -chroman-4-amine can adopt a kinetic resolution method, and the racemic chroman-4-amine is hydrolyzed after being derived to obtain chiral pure (S) -chroman-4-amine, but the method has complicated steps and the actual yield is not more than 50%, so that the industrial application value is low. The biosynthesis method takes chroman-4-ketone as a raw material, and generates chiral pure (S) -chroman-4-amine under the catalysis of aminotransferase, and the method has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high yield, high stereoselectivity and the like. The reaction can transfer the amino group of the cheap amino donor (D/L-alanine and isopropylamine) to the chroman-4-ketone to generate byproducts (pyruvic acid and acetone) which are easy to separate, and has good industrial application prospect. However, the wild-type transaminase is limited in the preparation of (S) -chroman-4-amines by substrate specificity, stereoselectivity and catalytic efficiency, thus limiting the industrial production applications of (S) -chroman-4-amines.
