Therein the increase/decrease in the oxidation state of one species is accompanied by the decrease/increase in the oxidation state of another species, denoted as the oxidant/reductant. For selective redox transformations in the liquid phase a broad repertoire of stoichiometric reagents are part of the organic toolbox for already many decades 1. However their use is commonly not in line with the 12 principles of green chemistry 2. Catalysts that can facilitate the use of green oxidising and reducing agents play a major role in a transition to more sustainable technologies. With regard to the oxidation case, catalytic methods only recently started to replace the traditional use of stoichiometric oxidants (MnO 2, Jones reagent, Dess-Martin periodinane, etc.), ultimately allowing for O 2 or H 2O2 to be used as oxidants. Seminal examples include the tetra-n-propylammonium perruthenate (TPAP) catalyst utilising N- methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMNO) or O 2 as oxidant for the conversion of primary alcohols to carboxylic acids; the Fenton’s reagent employing H 2O2 for the degradation of phenolic compounds in waste water; the Al(i-PrO 3) (Oppenauer reagent) utilising acetone for the selective oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones and the 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1- piperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO) and its derivatives which have been exploited for alcohol 3 oxidation either in combination with sodium hypochlorite or O2 . Reduction catalysts are relatively well embedded and usually consist of Noble metals on surfaces (Pd, Pt, Ru, Raney-Ni) that can activate H2 as the reductant. In case of chiral reduction catalysis, commonly chiral ligands are employed that, in combination with metals such as Rh Ru, or Pd and Rh, lead to high enantioselectivities and selective transformations 4, 5. In general, thus most research efforts have been devoted to the development of transition metal-based catalysts. Very often these are robust catalysts, stable in organic media over a considerably broad range of temperature and pressure. However, main points of concern about their preparation and use are the need for toxic solvents or additives, the combined use of O 2 with flammable solvents and the constant depletion trend of rare metals. The continuous quest for greener manufacturing routes has shed light on the high potential of enzymes as alternatives to the established procedures 6. Many reasons account for this interest towards bio-based catalysts. Enzymes, in general, have evolved 2 Chapter 1 to work under milder reaction conditions (pH, temperature, pressure) than most chemical catalysts. Furthermore they utilise water as solvent of choice, are biodegradable and can be isolated from renewable resources. Thus, even though for any given process claims of greenness should only be made after proper eco-assessment analysis, they bear the potential for more sustainable catalysis. An overview of the general characteristics of chemo- and biocatalytic systems is given in Table 1. 1. Table 1. 1: Comparison of biocatalytic and chemocatalytic strategies for oxidation and reduction reactions. Chemocatalysis Biocatalysis Organic media Aqueous media High substrate loading Moderate substrate loading Selectivity issues High chemo/stereo-selectivity Mostly robust catalysts Catalyst stability issues Oxidations Catalysts: Catalysts: Ru, Pd, Cu, Fe, Au-based; Al(i-PrO 3); 2,2,6,6- Dehydrogenases, oxidases, peroxidases tetramethyl-1-piperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO), polymer- immobilised piperidinyl oxyl (PIPO) 7, 8. Oxidants: Oxidants: NaOCl, acetone, O 2, H 2O2 O2, H 2O2, R-OOH, acetone Reductions Catalysts: Catalysts: Rh, Pt, Ir-based, MacMillan 9 imidazolidinone; Reductases; dehydrogenases Reductants: Reductants: H2, dihydropyridine, NaBH 4 Glucose, formate, H 2 Noteworthy, the potentially lower environmental impact of most biocatalysts often goes in hand with their excellent catalytic properties: high chemo-/regio-/stereo-selectivity are some of the major advantages of enzyme catalysis. An exemplary case of regioselective enzymatic oxidation is shown in Figure 1. 1 10 . Figure 1. 1: regioselective oxidation of cholic acid by the 12 α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase from Clostridium group P, adapted from 10 . When studying the different classes of enzymes that catalyse redox reactions four subclasses can be distinguished: dehydrogenases, oxygenases, oxidases and peroxidases (Scheme 1. 1). Although industrially viable examples stem from all groups, the 3 Introduction dehydrogenases/reductases family represents a highly attractive target of study, as it includes a large number of enzymes well characterised and readily accessible to both scientific and industrial community. Dehydrogenases cover a wide range of substrates, and nowadays a large number of thermostable enzyme variants are available as well. Thus they provide an excellent basis for industrial processing. Scheme 1. 1: oxidoreductases subclasses, schematic mode of action (adapted from 11 ) This thesis focuses on the use of dehydrogenases/reductases (DRs), particularly alcohol dehydrogenases and ene-reductases for the development of novel approaches to the biocatalytic oxidation of alcohols and reduction of activated olefins, overall aiming at addressing the present shortcomings in the use of these enzymes and enlarging the scope of their application. 1.2 Alcohol oxidations: the need for biocatalytic alternatives Oxidation of alcohols is a fundamental reaction in organic chemistry. Popular ways to perform this kind of reaction rely on the use of heavy metal based reagents (Mn, Cr) in stoichiometric amounts or on transition metal based catalysts 12-14 . Even though these methods are by now well-developed, they often lack chemo and stereoselectivity, thus requiring complex protection and deprotection strategies in order to afford the desired product, like in the case of polyols oxidation. Moreover, high catalysts loadings and the need for significant O2 pressures in flammable solvents are some of the issues that relate to their applicability on large scale so that currently they do not appear to be the most promising route towards more sustainable processes. 4 Chapter 1 Instead, the use of oxidative enzymes bears the promise for more selective and environmental benign possibilities. 1.2.1 Alcohol dehydrogenases as biocatalytic alternative Two types of enzymes can perform oxidation of alcohols: oxidases and dehydrogenases. Alcohol oxidases are mostly flavin-dependent enzymes that catalyse the irreversible substrate oxidation by transferring reducing equivalent from the alcohol group to O 2 via the prosthetic flavin. They represent a very promising class of biocatalysts for oxidation reactions but their applicability is severely hampered by the limited number of enzymes identified and the rather narrow substrate spectrum of those that are available. Instead, hundreds of alcohol dehydrogenases have already been identified in the past which have also been reported as excellent catalysts for a wide range of applications in oxidative chemistry. In broad terms, these enzymes catalyse the interconversion

Received: 11 January 2018; Accepted: 31 January 2018; Published: 23 February 2018 Abstract: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) exhibits remarkable metabolic flexibility that enables it to survive a plethora of host environments during its life cycle. With the advent of bedaquiline for treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, oxidative phosphorylation has been validated as an important target and a vulnerable component of mycobacterial metabolism. Exploiting the dependence of Mtb on oxidative phosphorylation for energy production, several components of this pathway have been targeted for the development of new antimycobacterial agents. This includes targeting NADH dehydrogenase by phenothiazine derivatives, menaquinone biosynthesis by DG70 and other compounds, terminal oxidase by imidazopyridine amides and ATP synthase by diarylquinolines. Importantly, oxidative phosphorylation also plays a critical role in the survival of persisters. Thus, inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation can synergize with frontline TB drugs to shorten the course of treatment. In this review, we discuss the oxidative phosphorylation pathway and development of its inhibitors in detail. Keywords: Mycobacterium tuberculosis; bioenergetics; oxidative phosphorylation; antimycobacterials; drugs; bedaquiline; Q203; SQ109; electron transport chain 1.

It is a monomeric enzyme of 31 kDa that is active with (4R)-4-isopropenyl-7-methyl-2-oxo-oxepanone and (6R)-6-isopropenyl-3-methyl-2-oxo-oxepanone, lactones de- rived from (4R)-dihydrocarvone, and 7-isopropyl-4-methyl-2-oxo-oxepanone, the lactone derived from men- thone.

Determi- nation of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of purified MLH enabled cloning of the corresponding gene by a combination of PCR and colony screening. The gene, designated mlhB (monoterpene lactone hydrolysis), showed up to 43% similarity to members of the GDXG family of lipolytic enzymes.

Induction experiments of Food Technology and Nutritional Sciences, with carveol- or dihydrocarveol-grown cells showed high oxygen consumption Wageningen University, rates with these two compounds and with carvone and dihydrocarvone. PO Box 8129, 6700 EV (Dihydro)carveol-grown cells of R. erythropolis DCL14 contained the following Wageningen, The Netherlands enzymic activities involved in the carveol and dihydrocarveol degradation pathways of this micro-organism: (dihydro)carveol dehydrogenase (both NADM- and dichlorophenolindophenol-dependent activities), an unknown cofactor-dependent carvone reductase, (iso-)dihydrocarvone isomerase activity, NADPH-dependent dihydrocarvone monooxygenase (Baeyer–Villiger monooxygenase), ε-lactone hydrolase and an NADM-dependent 6-hydroxy-3- isopropenylheptanoate dehydrogenase. Product accumulation studies identified (4R)-carvone, (1R,4R)-dihydrocarvone, (4R,7R)-4-isopropenyl-7- methyl-2-oxo-oxepanone, (3R)-6-hydroxy-3-isopropenylheptanoate, (3R)-3- isopropenyl-6-oxoheptanoate, (3S,6R)-6-isopropenyl-3-methyl-2-oxo- oxepanone and (5R)-6-hydroxy-5-isopropenyl-2-methylhexanoate as intermediates in the (4R)-carveol degradation pathway. The opposite stereoisomers of these compounds were identified in the (4S)-carveol degradation pathway. With dihydrocarveol, the same intermediates are involved except that carvone was absent. These results show that R. erythropolis DCL14 metabolizes all four diastereomers of carveol via oxidation to carvone, which is subsequently stereospecifically reduced to (1R)-(iso-) dihydrocarvone.
