(54) Title: METHOD FOR PREPARING OPTICALLY ACTIVE HYDROXY ACID ESTERS (57) Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing optically active 2-hydroxy acid ester derivatives of the formula Rl- C(OH)-C(O)-O-R2 (I),comprising the bringing into contact of 2-oxo acid ester derivatives of the formula R1-C(O)-C(O)-O-R2 (II) with an enzyme (E) selected from the class of dehydrogenases, in the presence of reduction equivalents, where the compound of the formula (II) is enzymatically reduced to the compound of the formula (I), and the reduction equivalents consumed in the course of the reaction are regenerated again by converting a reducing agent (RA) to the corresponding oxidation product (OP) with the help of the enzyme (E). The invention further comprises a dehydrogenase which reduces 2-oxo acid esters in the presence of reduction equivalents to the corresponding S- 2-hydroxy acid esters, and also a nucleic acid encoding the dehydrogenase. Method for preparing optically active hydroxy acid esters The present invention relates to a method for obtaining optically active hydroxy compounds through enantioselective reduction of organic keto compounds and methods for obtaining these hydroxy compounds in the two-phase system using enzymes with dehydrogenase activity. Background of the invention Optically active hydroxy compounds, such as, for example, ethyl 2-hydroxy-4- phenylbutyrate, of very high enantiomer purity are important precursors in the synthesis of drugs, in particular inhibitors of the so-called angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), which are used for treating patients with hypertension. Many of these inhibitors, such as enalapril, ramipril, cilazapril, quinapril and lysinapril, have a common general structural feature which is responsible for improved application properties. The feature common to such inhibitors is the S-enantiomer form of the 2-amino-4-phenylbutyrate with the structural formula (Ia). The S-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyric acid of the formula Ib (R enantiomer) is used for preparing isomeric compounds. Obtaining chiral compounds through stereospecific microbiological reduction is known (for an overview cf. Simon et al., Angew. Chemie 97, 541 , 1985). The biocatalysts used are often intact microorganisms, for example fungi (e.g. Mucor, Geotrichum, Saccharomyces, Candida) or bacteria (e.g. Proteus, Pseudomonas). It is also possible to use microbial extracts. Electron donors are, for example, carbohydrates (e.g. glucose), formate, ethanol, hydrogen or the cathode of an electrochemical cell. Reduction of the substrate takes place through a reductase, e.g. through a substrate-specific dehydrogenase. In general, the reduction equivalents required by the reductase are supplied by a coenzyme, e.g. by pyridine nucleotides such as NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) or by flavin nucleotides such as FMNH (flavin mononucleotide) and FADH (flavin adenine dinucleotide). The reduced nucleotides for their part are usually formed in a series of enzyme-catalyzed steps with the formation of competing electron acceptors or by electron transfer via natural or synthetic mediators (e.g. ferredoxin, viologens). Also known are final reductases which can absorb electrons directly from the mediators. For example, Lacerda et al., Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 17, 2006, pages 1186-1 188, describes a method for the microbial reduction of 2-oxo-4-phenylbutyrates using various bacterial strains. The European patent specification EP 0 347 374 describes a method of preparing R-2- hydroxy-4-phenylbutyric acid in which the substrate is reduced with the enzyme D-lactate dehydrogenase from Staphylococcus epidermidis in the presence of an electron donor and an enzyme-substrate system for regenerating the electron donor. Furthermore, WO2005/049816 discloses a NADPH-dependent dehydrogenase from Metschnikowia zobellii which, in the presence of water and NADPH, catalyzes the stereoselective reduction of carbonyl compounds to the corresponding chiral hydroxy compounds. EP 0 645 453 discloses an enantioselective alcohol dehydrogenase which is suitable for the reduction of organic keto compounds to the corresponding hydroxy compounds, this reduction leading enantioselectively to the corresponding R compounds. Short description of the Invention: The object of the invention was to find a route for the enantioselective reduction of 2-oxo acid esters, in particular ethyl 2-oxo-4-phenylbutyrate, wherein the reaction method should lead as quantitatively as possible to the product by a cost-effective route. This object was achieved by the surprising finding that enzymes with dehydrogenase activity, in particular those which can be prepared from microorganisms of the genus Azoarcus, are capable of the enantioselective catalysis of the above reaction with simultaneous cofactor regeneration. The invention firstly provides a method for preparing optically active 2-hydroxy acid ester derivatives of the formula (I), R1-C(OH)-C(O)-O-R2 or a salt thereof, wherein R 1 and R2, independently of one another, are a) -(C1-C20)-alkyl, in which alkyl is straight-chain or branched, b) -(C2-C20)-alkenyl, in which alkenyl is straight-chain or branched and comprises one, two, three or four double bonds depending on chain length, c) -(C2-C20)-alkynyl, in which alkynyl is straight-chain or branched and optionally comprises one, two, three or four triple bonds, d) -(C6-C14)-aryl, e) -(C1-C8)-alkyl-(C6-C14)-aryl, f) -(C5-C14)-heterocycle which is unsubstituted or mono- to trisubstituted by halogen, hydroxyl, amino or nitro, or g) -(C3-C7)-cycloalkyl, wherein the residues specified above under a . to g . are unsubstituted or are mono- to trisubstituted, independently of one another, by 1. -OH, 2 . halogen, such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine, 3 . -NO2, 4 . -C(O)-O-(CI -C20)-alkyl, in which alkyl is straight or branched and is unsubstituted or mono- to trisubstituted by halogen, hydroxyl, amino or nitro, or 5 . -(C5-C14)-heterocycle which is unsubstituted or mono- to trisubstituted by halogen, hydroxyl, amino or nitro the method comprising the bringing into contact of 2-oxo acid ester derivatives of the formula (II) R1-C(O)-C(O)-O-R2 with an enzyme (E) selected from the class of the dehydrogenases, in the presence of reduction equivalents, wherein the compound of the formula (II) is enzymatically reduced to the compound of the formula (I), and the reduction equivalents consumed in the course of the reaction are regenerated again by converting a reducing agent (RA) to the corresponding oxidation product (OP) with the help of the enzyme (E). Depending on the dehydrogenase used, the -OH group of the formula (I) is in the S configuration (Ia) or in the R configuration (Ib) relative to the carbon atom to which it is bonded. Enzymes (E) suitable according to the invention are in particular the enzymes of the families of the aldo-keto reductases of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily (K.M.Bohren, B.Bullock, B.Wermuth and K.H.Gabbay J.Biol. Chem. 1989, 264, 9547-9551) and of the short-chain alcohol dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR). The latter enzyme group is described in detail, for example, in H.Jδrnvall, B.Persson, M.Krook, S.Atrian, R.Gonzalez-Duarte, J.Jeffery and D.Ghosh, Biochemistry, 1995, 34, pp.

The diversity and ecophysiology of Rhodocyclales in activated sludge from a full-scale wastewater treatment plant were analyzed following a holistic strategy based on the isotope array approach, which allows for a parallel functional probing of different phylogenetic groups. Initial diagnostic microarray, comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence, and quantitative fluorescence in situ hybridization surveys indicated the presence of a diverse community, consisting of an estimated number of 27 operational taxonomic units that grouped in at least seven main Rhodocyclales lineages. Substrate utilization profiles of probe-defined populations were determined by radioactive isotope array analysis and microautoradiography-fluorescence in situ hybridization of activated sludge samples that were briefly exposed to different substrates under oxic and anoxic, nitrate-reducing conditions.

  • Biodegradation of Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Oxygen-Limited Groundwater

Vorsitzende(r): Hon.-Prof. Dr. Michael Schloter Prüfer der Dissertation: 1. Prof. Dr. Tillmann Lüders 2.

One of the main ways to mitigate this issue is bioremediation, the use of microorganisms to sequester or break down pollutants. Bacteria capable of metabolizing hydrocarbons are widespread in the environment, including groundwater. They rely on a variety of metabolic and respiratory strategies, distinguished primarily by the availability of oxygen. Oxygen can act as a terminal electron acceptor (TEA) during respiration, but also as a metabolic co-substrate during the breakdown of stable compounds like aromatic hydrocarbons. Anaerobic degradation relies on alternative TEAs and mechanisms of aromatic destabilization. Strictly aerobic and anaerobic hydrocarbon degradation have been well studied in recent decades, but hot spots of degradation occur at the fringes of contaminant plumes, where mixing of oxygen and other TEAs create dynamic, TEA- limited conditions. Microaerobes and other microbes with specialized strategies that could offer advantages in such conditions have been poorly investigated, despite their probable contribution to pollutant degradation in environmentally-relevant situations.

Meanwhile, the microbial community dynamics at different DO levels were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing. The removal efficiencies of total nitrogen (TN) and phosphorus (TP) were significantly affected as different dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations (2.0,1.2 and 0.8 mg/L) in stages I, II and III, respectively. When DO concentration was reduced to 0.8mg/L (stage III), the SNPR process was successfully implemented and the removal efficiencies of TN and TP were up to 77.30% and 85.78%, respectively. A total of 40,983 effective 16S rRNA gene sequences were generated from four samples (1-4) that widely represented microbial community diversity. The dominant phyla transformed from Candidate_division_TM7 (the relative abundance of 68.08%) and proteobacteria (25.78%) to Firmicutes (47.57%) and proteobacteria (41.49%) when DO concentration was decreased from 2.0 mg/L (stage I) to 0.8 mg/L(stage III).
