POH and its derivatives are known to be effective as an anticancer treatment. In this study, oxidative derivatives of POH, which are difficult to synthesize chemically, were synthesized using the engineered bacterial cytochrome P450 BM3 (CYP102A1) as a biocatalyst. The activity of wild-type (WT) CYP102A1 and 29 engineered enzymes toward POH was screened using a high-performance liquid chromatography. They produced one major product. Among them, the engineered CYP102A1 M601 mutant with seven mutations (R47L/F81I/F87V/E143G/L150F/L188Q/E267V) showed the highest conversion, 6.4-fold higher than the WT. Structure modeling using AlphFold2 and PyMoL suggests that mutations near the water channel may be responsible for the increased catalytic activity of the M601 mutant. The major product was identified as a POH-8,9-epoxide by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. The optimal temperature and pH for the product formation were 35 °C and pH 7.4, respectively. The <em>k</em><sub>cat</sub> and <em>K</em><sub>m</sub> of M601 were 540 min<sup>−1</sup> and 2.77 mM, respectively. To improve POH-8,9-epoxide production, substrate concentration and reaction time were optimized. The optimal condition for POH-8,9-epoxide production by M601 was 5.0 mM POH, pH 7.4, 35 ℃, and 6 h reaction, which produced the highest concentration of 1.72 mM. Therefore, the biosynthesis of POH-8,9-epoxide using M601 as a biocatalyst is suggested to be an efficient and sustainable synthetic process that can be applied to chemical and pharmaceutical industries.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":11770,"journal":{"name":"Enzyme and Microbial Technology","volume":"180 ","pages":"Article 110487"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141855161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has been realized due to extensive research conducted over the past decade, resulting in a large set of engineered PET hydrolases. Among various engineering strategies to enhance PET hydrolases, fusion with binding domains has been used to tune affinity and boost activity of the enzymes. While fusion enzymes have demonstrated higher activity in many cases, these results are primarily observed under conditions that would not be economically viable at scale. Furthermore, the wide variation in PET substrates, conditions, and combinations of PET hydrolases and binding domains complicates direct comparisons. Here, we present a self-consistent and thorough analysis of two leading PET hydrolases, LCC<sup>ICCG</sup> and PHL7. Both enzymes were evaluated both without and with a substrate-binding domain across a range of industrially relevant PET substrates. We demonstrate that the presence of a substrate-binding module does not significantly affect the affinity of LCC<sup>ICCG</sup> and PHL7 for PET. However, significant differences exist in how the fusion enzymes act on different PET substrates and solid substrate loading, ranging from a 3-fold increase in activity to a 6-fold decrease.
