氯过氧化物酶的手性催化活性在有机合成中的应用

氯过氧化物酶（CPO）作为过氧化物酶家族中的一员对多种有机底物表现出了广泛的催化活性。自上世纪60年代被发现以来，CPO在有机合成中的应用一直是一个研究热点。它作为一种生物催化剂能催化广泛的底物合成手性化合物，且有高的产率和高的对映选择率。本文综述了氯过氧化物酶在手性有机合成中的应用，重点关注了卤化、醇氧化、羟基化、环氧化、磺化氧化等反应，并讨论了目前在该领域所面临的问题及今后的发展趋势。     

Biocatalytic removal of nickel and vanadium from petroporphyrins and asphaltenes

Asphaltenes from a crude oil rich in heavy metals (Castilla crude oil) were fractionated and partially characterized. Biocatalytic modifications of these fractionated asphaltenes by three different hemoproteins: chloro-peroxidase (CPO), cytochrome C peroxidase (Cit-C), and lignin peroxi-dase (LPO) were evaluated in both aqueous buffer and organic solvents. The reactions were carried out in aqueous buffers, ternary systems of toluene: isopropanol: water, and aqueous-miscible organic solvent solutions with petroporphyrins as substrate. The petroporphyrins were more soluble in the ternary systems and aqueous miscible-organic solvent systems than in the aqueous buffer systems. However, only the CPO-mediated reactions were effective in eliminating the Soret peak in both aqueous and organic solvent systems. The effects of CPO-mediated reactions on the release of the metals complexed with the porphyrins and asphaltenes were also determined. Chloroperoxidase was able to alter components in the heavy fractions of petroleum and remove 53 and 27% of total heavy metals (Ni and V, respectively) from petroporphyrin-rich fractions and asphaltenes     

手性环氧氯丙烷的CPO酶催化不对称合成

基于氯过氧化物酶(CPO)对有机底物的手性识别,以CPO催化、叔丁基过氧化氢(TBHP)氧化3-氯丙烯合成手性(R)-环氧氯丙烷,并引入多羟基化合物为添加剂提高了目标产物的产率及对映选择性.反应主要受体系的pH值以及CPO用量等因素控制.UV-vis及CD光谱分析表明,反应体系中引入多羟基化合物(甘油、PEG400、PEG600)时,CPO的血红素辅基暴露程度增加,底物容易接近活性中心,同时CPO的α-螺旋结构得以加强,从而有效提高了产物收率.CPO对底物的手性识别主要基于底物与酶催化中间体([Fe(IV)=O·]+)形成的复合物对酶的稳定性的影响.通过反应条件优化,(R)-环氧氯丙烷产率可达67.3%,对映选择性(ee)97.5%.     

Synthesis of Enantioenriched Sulfoxides by an Oxidation-Reduction Enzymatic Cascade

Chiral sulfoxides are versatile synthons and have gained a particular interest in asymmetric synthesis of active pharmaceutical and agrochemical ingredients. Herein, a linear oxidation–reduction bienzymatic cascade to synthesize chiral sulfoxides is reported. The extraordinarily stable and active vanadium-dependent chloroperoxidase from Curvularia inaequalis (CiVCPO) was used to oxidize sulfides into racemic sulfoxides, which were then converted to chiral sulfoxides by highly enantioselective methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MsrA) and B (MsrB) by kinetic resolution, respectively. The combinatorial cascade gave a broad range of structurally diverse sulfoxides with excellent optical purity (>99 % ee) with complementary chirality. The enzymatic cascade requires no NAD(P)H recycling, representing a facile method for chiral sulfoxide synthesis. Particularly, the envisioned enzymatic cascade not only allows CiVCPO to gain relevance in chiral sulfoxide synthesis, but also provides a powerful approach for (S)-sulfoxide synthesis; the latter case is significantly unexplored for heme-dependent peroxidases and peroxygenases.     

Cryoradiolytic reduction of crystalline heme proteins: analysis by UV‐Vis spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography

The X‐ray crystallographic analysis of redox‐active systems may be complicated by photoreduction. Although radiolytic reduction by the probing X‐ray beam may be exploited to generate otherwise short‐lived reaction intermediates of metalloproteins, it is generally an undesired feature. Here, the X‐ray‐induced reduction of the three heme proteins myoglobin, cytochrome P450cam and chloroperoxidase has been followed by on‐line UV‐Vis absorption spectroscopy. All three systems showed a very rapid reduction of the heme iron. In chloroperoxidase the change of the ionization state from ferric to ferrous heme is associated with a movement of the heme‐coordinating water molecule. The influence of the energy of the incident X‐ray photons and of the presence of scavengers on the apparent reduction rate of ferric myoglobin crystals was analyzed.     

Kinetics of epoxidation by a Musa paradisiaca chloroperoxidase

Epoxidations of indene, styrene, 2-chlorostyrene, 3-chlorostyrene, 4-chlorostyrene, 4-bromostyrene, and naphthalene using Musa paradisiaca plant juice chloroperoxidase in the presence of H₂O₂ and t-butyl peroxide as oxidants have been studied. The steady-state kinetic parameters, K_m and k_cat of the enzyme for the above substrates have been determined. The temperature and pH optima of the epoxidation are 25°C and 6.2, respectively. The yield of styrene oxide in the presence of H₂O₂ was 44%. The results show that M. paradisiaca plant juice chloroperoxidase is a potential biocatalyst for organic epoxidation reactions.

基于金属有机骨架的固定化氯过氧化物酶的制备和性能评价

30℃水相体系中"一锅法"快速制备固定化氯过氧化物酶（CPO@ZIF-8）,在构筑金属有机沸石咪唑骨架结构（ZIF-8）的同时将氯过氧化物酶（CPO）固定在其三维纳米孔道中.温和的条件为固定化酶制备过程中酶活性的保持提供了前提.结构和性能表征说明酶分子的引入并不改变ZIF-8材料的孔道结构,同时酶分子在CPO@ZIF-8中呈现出在整体骨架材料中的嵌入式均匀分布.与先构筑ZIF-8骨架材料,然后通过表面吸附来固定酶分子的方法相比,通过将酶分子引入整体骨架材料中不仅提高了酶的固载量,更主要的是利用ZIF-8材料的高比表面积提高了固定化CPO的催化效率,同时基于三维孔道提供的刚性屏蔽环境有效改善了CPO在极端反应条件下的热稳定性、酸碱稳定性和对有机溶剂的耐受性.     

4-Chlorophenol degradation by chloroperoxidase from Caldariomyces fumago

This study investigated the degradation of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) by Caldariomyces fumago chloroperoxidase (CPO). Enzymatic oxidations were studied in reaction mixtures at pH 3.0, 4.0, and 6.0 in the presence and absence of Cl⁻ containing 3.5 IU of CPO and 4-CP and hydrogen peroxide concentrations within the range of 0.5–50 and 0.005–50 mM, respectively. Distinct patterns of products regarding color, concentration, and solubility were observed. Reaction mixtures at pH 6.0 containing 3.5 IU of CPO and 5.0 mM 4-CP and H₂O₂ (1:1 stoichiometry) showed the highest 4-CP removal of 95% and the highest formation of a dark precipitate.
