Supramolecular shielding and hydrophilic engineering unlock ultra-stable MOF-biocatalysts for chiral compound resolution
Background
The kinetic resolution of enantiomers via enzymatic catalysis holds pivotal importance in chemical engineering for chiral compound production. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising carriers for enzyme immobilization to enhance process efficiency in industrial biocatalysis. However, conventional MOFs immobilization often compromises enzymatic activity due to structural denaturation.
Methods
In this study, we developed a chemical engineering approach by covalently grafting methoxy polyethylene glycolamine (PEGN) onto mesoporous UiO-66-NH2 (m-UiON), constructing a reactor-like MOFs platform tailored for immobilization of Lipase PS from Pseudomonas cepacia. This PEGylation strategy engineered a biomimetic interface preserved enzyme conformation through supramolecular shielding, optimized mass transfer via meso-channel hydrophilicity modulation, and reinforced stability under operation conditions.
Significant Findings
The resultant PS@PEGN@m-UiON exhibited breakthrough performance, achieving 5.2-fold activity enhancement over free lipase with 92% retention after 6 batch cycles. The hybrid catalyst demonstrated exceptional robustness across industrial-relevant conditions (50 - 70°C, organic solvents), showcasing its potential for scalable manufacturing of chiral intermediates. This interfacial engineering protocol provides a generalizable framework for designing next-generation immobilized enzyme systems in pharmaceutical and fine chemical production.
期刊介绍:
Journal of the Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers (formerly known as Journal of the Chinese Institute of Chemical Engineers) publishes original works, from fundamental principles to practical applications, in the broad field of chemical engineering with special focus on three aspects: Chemical and Biomolecular Science and Technology, Energy and Environmental Science and Technology, and Materials Science and Technology. Authors should choose for their manuscript an appropriate aspect section and a few related classifications when submitting to the journal online.
