Furthermore, a disadvantage of this process is that it is necessary to use a multistep kinetic resolution in order to get an acceptable enantiomeric excess of 3-amino-2-methyl-propionic acid. It is the object of the invention to provide a simple enzymatic process for the preparation of an enantiomerically enriched ⁇ 2 -amino acid (ester), i.e. a process without the need of multistep kinetic resolutions and/or N-protection of the ⁇ 2 -amino acid (ester). This object is achieved according to the invention by reacting a stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme with a mixture of enantiomers of a ⁇ 2 -amino acid ester represented by formula 2

- Hydrolytic enzymes are also known as hydrolases. Hydrolases are enzymes that catalyze a hydrolysis reaction. Thus, hydrolases act to break down a compound (i.e. the substrate) by cleaving a covalent bond in the compound and 5 inserting a water molecule across the bond.
- hydrolases include those enzymes that act on ester bonds, on carbon-nitrogen bonds, on peptide bonds, and on acid anhydrides, amongst others.
- 'hydrolytic enzyme' is meant an enzyme with the ability to hydrolyze a carboxylic ester group to form the corresponding carboxylic acid group.
- 'stereoselectivity' of the hydrolytic enzyme is meant that the hydrolytic enzyme preferably catalyzes the hydrolysis of one of the enantiomers of the ⁇ 2 -amino acid ester.
- the stereoselectivity of an enzyme may be expressed in terms of E-ratio, the ratio of the specificity constants V max /K m of the two enantiomers as described in C-S.
- the hydrolytic enzyme has an E-ratio > 5, more preferably an E-ratio > 10, even more preferably an E-ratio > 50, most preferably an E-ratio > 100.
- a stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme suitable for use in the present invention may for example be found in one of the general classes of hydrolytic enzymes, for instance in the group of esterases, lipases, proteases, peptidases or acylases, preferably in the group of esterases or lipases.
- the hydrolytic enzyme may be derived from both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, including but not limited to those from the following mammalian sources: porcine liver, porcine pancreas, for example commercially available porcine pancreatic lipase type II (L-3126, Sigma); porcine kidney and bovine pancreas; those from the plant source wheat germ; those from the following mold genera: Absidia; Aspergillus; Fusarium; Gibberella; Mucor, Neurospora; Trichoderma; Rhizopus; Rhizomucor, for example Rhizomucor miehei; Thermomyces, for example Thermomyces lanugenousus; those from the following bacterial genera: Achromobacter, Alcaligenes; Bacillus; for example Bacillus licheniformis; Brevibacterium; Corynebacterium; Providencia; Pseudomonas, for example Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas cepas
- the stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme is found in the group of enzymes classified as carboxylic ester hydrolases (EC 3.1.1) or in the group of enzymes classified as peptidases, for example EC 3.4.1, EC 3.4.11, EC 3.4.21, more preferably EC 3.4.21.62, EC 3.4.22 or EC 3.4.23.
- a stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme may also be found in the group of commercially available hydrolytic enzymes.
- hydrolytic enzymes examples include enzymes supplied by Fluka: Candida cylindracea lipase, lipase Hog pancreas, lipase Pseudomonas fluorescens, lipase Aspergillus oryzae, lipase Rhizopus niveus, lipase Rhizomucor miehei, lipase Candida antarctica, lipase Mucor javanicus, lipase Rhizopus arrhizus, lipase Penicillium roqueforti, lipase Candida lipolytica, lipoprotein lipase Pseudomonas sp., type B, lipoprotein lipase Pseudomonas cepacia, lipoprotein lipase Chromobacterium viscosum, esterase Bacillus stearothermophilus, esterase Bacillus thermoglucosidasius, esterase Mucor miehei,
- stereoselective hydrolytic enzymes are: subtilisin, alcalase 2.5L, Bacillus licheniformis protease, Candida Antarctica lipase A, porcine pancreatic lipase type II.
- the stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme may be used in any form.
- the hydrolytic enzyme may be used - for example in the form of a dispersion, a solution or in immobilized form - as crude enzyme, as a commercially available enzyme, as an enzyme further purified from a commercially available preparation, as an enzyme obtained from its source by a combination of known purification methods, in whole (optionally permeabilized and/or immobilized) cells that naturally or through genetic modification possess the required stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme activity, or in a lysate of cells with such activity. It will be clear to the average person skilled in the art that use can also be made of mutants of naturally occurring (wild type) enzymes with hydrolytic activity in the process according to the invention.
- Mutants of wild-type enzymes can for example be made by modifying the DNA encoding the wild type enzymes using mutagenesis techniques known to the person skilled in the art (random mutagenesis, site-directed mutagenesis, directed evolution, gene shuffling, etc.) so that the DNA encodes an enzyme that differs by at least one amino acid from the wild type enzyme and by effecting the expression of the thus modified DNA in a suitable (host) cell.
- Mutants of the stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme may have improved properties with respect to (stereo)selectivity and/or activity and/or stability and/or solvent resistance and/or pH prophile and/or temperature prophile.
- a stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme may for example be selected for the process of the invention by screening several enzymes or host cells expressing genes encoding enzymes for the presence of stereoselective hydrolytic enzyme activity.
- the person skilled in the art knows how to screen for enzymes with a desired activity.
- conditions under which the substrate (such as the compound of formula 2) and the enzyme are brought into contact are chosen such that it is a good compromise between on the one hand the stability of the enzyme, the substrate and the reaction product and on the other hand the reaction velocity (which usually increases at higher temperatures). Screening for enzymes may be performed at any scale. For practical reasons, if large numbers of enzymes are screened, a reaction volume between 0.15ml and 10ml is used.
- stereoselective hydrolytic enzymes suitable for the stereoselective hydrolysis of a compound of formula 2 by monitoring the progress of the hydrolysis of the compound of formula 2 in an aqueous solution in the presence of an enzyme using an analytical method, for example TLC, HPLC or GC.
- aqueous solutions are water and water with co-solvent, for example a water-miscible organic solvent or a water-immiscible solvent.
- water-miscible organic solvents include methanol, ethanol, aceton, dioxane, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylsulfoxide and dimethylformamide.
- water-immiscible organic solvents examples include methyl-t-butyl ether, methyl-isobutyl ketone.toluene, hexane, xylene and iso-octane.
- the amount of co-solvent is in principle not critical and is usually chosen between 5 and 25 % v/v. In case the substrate is liquid it may be present in water as such. In case the substrate is solid, it may be advantageous that a co-solvent is also present.
- the enzyme/substrate ratio in the 'hydrolysis screening' is in principle not critical and may be chosen between 1/20 and 2/1.
- the amount of substrate used is in principle also not critical and may for example be between 5mM and 1.5 M.
- the pH of the 'hydrolysis screening' is in principle not critical and may for example be chosen between 5 and 10, preferably between 6 and 8 and may be kept constant by using a buffered aqueous solution using a buffer concentration of for example between 10mM and 500mM. Alternatively, the pH of the screening reaction may be kept constant by using an automated pH-stat system.
- the temperature of the 'hydrolysis screening' is in principle not critical and may be chosen between 20 and 40°C. Alternatively, if an enzyme is sought, which should operate at high temperature, the temperature may be chosen higher.
