Abstract:

Using ketoreductase KRED 30 from Corynebacterium sp. and the D-glucose dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis as the model enzymes, a combined cross-linked enzyme aggregates(combi-CLEAs) with high activity was prepared by optimization of the precipitant type, glutaraldehyde concentration, cross-linking temperature and time. Characterization of the combi-CLEAs showed that the stability and substrate tolerance of free enzymes mixture were significantly improved after combined cross-linking. Investigation of catalytical performance showed that combi-CLEAs could effectively catalyze the reduction of ethyl 4-chloroacetoacetate(COBE) and 3'-chloroacetophenone(CPO) for the synthesis of corresponding chiral alcohols in aqueous system. Only a little cofactor was needed to start the reactions. The catalytical activity could retain more than 70% after continuously catalyzing for 10 batches. The result showed that catalytical performance of combi-CLEAs in the biphasic system was much better than that in aqueous system. The total turnover number(TTN) for catalyzing COBE could attend 6595, and TTN for catalyzing CPO could attend 7500. Thus, cofactor regeneration by combi-CLEAs is feasible.
