Title: Semi-Continuous Flow Biocatalysis with Affinity Co-Immobilized Ketoreductase and Glucose Dehydrogenase. Author: Plž M, Petrovičová T, Rebroš M. Journal: Molecules; 2020 Sep 18; 25(18):. PubMed ID: 32961948. Abstract: The co-immobilization of ketoreductase (KRED) and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) on highly cross-linked agarose (sepharose) was studied. Immobilization of these two enzymes was performed via affinity interaction between His-tagged enzymes (six histidine residues on the N-terminus of the protein) and agarose matrix charged with nickel (Ni2+ ions). Immobilized enzymes were applied in a semicontinuous flow reactor to convert the model substrate; α-hydroxy ketone. A series of biotransformation reactions with a substrate conversion of >95% were performed. Immobilization reduced the requirement for cofactor (NADP+) and allowed the use of higher substrate concentration in comparison with free enzymes. The immobilized system was also tested on bulky ketones and a significant enhancement in comparison with free enzymes was achieved.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
