Surfing the wave of oxyfunctionalization chemistry by engineering fungal unspecific peroxygenases

Alejandro Beltran-Nogal et al.

Summary: The selective insertion of oxygen into non-activated organic molecules is crucial for the synthesis of existing and next generation industrial chemicals or pharmaceuticals. Fungal unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs) are highly active biocatalysts for C-H oxyfunctionalization, but their limited availability has hindered their use in industry. However, the combination of directed evolution and computational design is bringing UPOs closer to practical applications.

Production of microhomogeneous glycopeptide by a mutated NGT according FuncLib with unique sugar as substrate

Zhaoxi Liu et al.

Summary: N-glycosylation is an important post-translational modification of proteins. A cytoplasmic soluble N-glycosyltransferase (NGT) in bacteria can transfer different sugars to proteins, leading to heterogeneity and complexity of glycopeptides. A mutant ApNGT-P1 with increased substrate specificity was obtained, which can be used for efficient production of glycosylated peptides or proteins with uniform glucose at glycosylation sites. This study also provides a feasible pathway for further research on improving donor substrate selectivity of NGTs.

Stabilization of the SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain by protein core redesign and deep mutational scanning

Alison C. Leonard et al.

Summary: In this study, the researchers successfully stabilized the receptor binding domain of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein using a combination of deep mutational scanning and computational design. Their design maintained recognition by the receptor ACE2 and different monoclonal antibodies, and showed improved thermal stability and reduced proteolytic sensitivity compared to the original domain. This approach could be applied to stabilize a wide range of proteins without detailed knowledge of their active sites or binding epitopes.

Recent developments in the use of peroxygenases - Exploring their high potential in selective oxyfunctionalisations

Markus Hobisch et al.

Summary: Peroxygenases are a new class of enzymes that allow selective oxyfunctionalisation reactions without the need for a cofactor, different from well-known P450 monooxygenases. Recent developments in organic synthesis, molecular biotechnology, and reaction engineering have focused on utilizing these enzymes in industrial applications. There is great potential for peroxygenases in selective oxyfunctionalisations and further studies are required to explore their full capabilities in organic synthesis.

Engineered Enzymes Enable Selective N-Alkylation of Pyrazoles With Simple Haloalkanes

Ludwig L. Bengel et al.

Summary: Selective alkylation of pyrazoles using a catalyst-controlled enzymatic system allows for the efficient synthesis of important molecules with unprecedented regioselectivity. The use of a computational enzyme-library design tool enabled the conversion of a promiscuous enzyme into a small enzyme family of pyrazole-alkylating enzymes in one round of mutagenesis and screening. This enzymatic system demonstrates high selectivity and achieves different alkylations of pyrazoles with remarkable regiodivergence.

Enzymatic Hydroxylations of sp3-Carbons

Judith Muench et al.

Summary: The enzymatic hydroxylation of activated and nonactivated sp(3)-carbons is challenging in organic synthesis, but nature provides a variety of enzymes with catalytic versatility to tackle this task. Different enzymes have distinct specificity in substrate scope, selectivity, activity, stability, and catalytic cycle, and factors such as heterologous production, crystal structure availability, enzyme engineering potential, and substrate promiscuity play crucial roles in the applicability of these biocatalysts.

Patricia Molina-Espeja et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the peroxidative activity of UPOs is not dependent on a long-range electron transfer pathway from oxidizable residues at the protein surface, unlike other ligninolytic peroxidases. Rather, it seems to be mainly located at the heme access channel.
