The structures of as-prepared compounds were identified by FT-TR, NMR, and ESI-HRMS. Using alkaline protease(≥30 mg/mL) as enzyme, maximum yields reached 58% at 3:1(vinyl hexanoate to troxerutin) in pyridine(water content ≤1%). The yields gradually declined as chain length of acyl donors rose. The antioxidation abilities of the as-obtained compounds were confirmed by both DPPH free radical scavenging and potassium ferricyanide reduction methods. The antioxidation ability of troxerutin fatty acid esters was found lower than that of troxerutin. However, the logP values of troxerutin fatty acid esters varied from 0.15 to 1.94, suggesting that troxerutin fatty acid esters had better lipophilicity than troxerutin(logP =-2.12) when compared to their oil-water distribution coefficients. Overall, these findings look promising as reference for further development of future troxerutin.展开更多

However, the abuse of toxic reagents remains an issue for chemical synthesis method, whereas the low product yield and purity limit the widespread use of enzymatic method. In this study, a new solid-phase enzymatic peptide synthesis(SPEPS) strategy was developed to produce an antioxidant tyrosine-alanine dipeptide(Tyr-Ala) by using recombinant carboxypeptidase Y(CPY) as the catalyst. The general SPEPS procedure involves three steps. First, the N-protected acyl donor was covalently attached to solid resin. Second,the peptide bond was condensed between the acyl donor and the nucleophile under the catalysis of CPY. Finally, one-step cleavage was performed to remove the protecting group and cleave the peptides from solid resin. Upon the optimization of reaction conditions, 77.92%(±2.723%) yield of Tyr-Ala with high product purity of 90.971%(±2.695%) was obtained.In addition, the antioxidant activity of Tyr-Ala was determined by ABTS method, indicating that the synthesized Tyr-Ala obtained by SPEPS showed a superior antioxidant capability compared with commercial glutathione.展开更多

Starting with Phac-Met-OCam, we have successfully synthesized the target tripeptide with three free or immobilized enzymes, ?chymotrypsin, papain and thermolysin in reasonable yields. The key steps in this synthesis were the coupling of Phac-Met-OCam and H-Asp(OMe)2 to form Met-Asp peptide bond catalyzed by ?chymotrypsin and the selective hydrolysis of -ester of Phac-Met-Asp(OMe)2 catalyzed by papain.展开更多

In this study, we successfully produced an important antioxidant dipeptide precursor, BOC-Tyr-Ala, via a kinetically controlled enzymatic peptide synthesis reaction, catalyzed by the recombinant car- boxypeptidase Y （CPY） expressed in P. pastoris GS 115. In this reaction, the enzyme activity was 95.043 U/mL, and we used t-butyloxycarbonyl-L-tyrosine-methyl ester （BOC-Tyr-OMe） as the acyl donor and L-alanine （L-Ala） was the amino donor. We optimized the reaction conditions to be： 30 ℃, pH 9.5, organic phase （methanol）/aqueous phase = 1：20, BOC-Tyr-OMe 0.05 mol/L, Ala 0.5 mol/L, and a reaction time of 12 h. Under these conditions, the dipeptide yield reached 49.84%. Then, we established the kinetic model of the synthesis reaction in the form of Michaelis-Menten equation according to the con-centration-time curve during the process and the transpeptidation mechanism. We calculated the apparent Michaelis constant K^（app）mand the apparent maximum reaction rate r^（app）max to be 2.9946 x 10^-2 mol/L and 2.0406 x 10.2 mmol/（mL h）, respectively.展开更多
