Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method for easily recycling immobilized enzyme materials. These materials can be collected from reaction mixtures by filtration and re-used in further reactions, if necessary after purification. This is important for enzymes that are expensive or difficult to cultivate. The immobilized enzyme materials can be used as heterogeneous biocatalysts in any organic reaction where the enzyme is able to specifically catalyze the reaction. The immobilized enzyme materials can also be used in cascade reactions where different enzymes are immobilized and show a difference in catalytic activity. The amount of each different enzyme on the carrier can be adjusted to speed up the reaction cascade.

Problems solved by technology

However, since enzymes are biological molecules evolved for a cell environment, they are often unsuited for other environments.
Adsorption of enzymes to solid surfaces can lead to undesired interactions between the enzyme and the solid support.
It has been shown that protein adsorption onto silica nanoparticles may lead to changes in the secondary structure of the protein, which can result in deactivation of the enzyme (Lundqvist et al., Langmuir 2004, vol.
Although this technique can be successfully applied in chromatographic procedures for purification and isolation of proteins, the gel-immobilized enzymes are less suitable as heterogeneous catalysts in organic synthesis.
The IMAC technique is furthermore primarily restricted to aqueous conditions.
This results in a nonspecific binding of the enzyme to the CPG, often with concomitant loss of the enzymatic activity.
A further drawback of this method is that the enzyme to be immobilized must be purified from other enzymes prior to the immobilization step, in order to avoid the immobilization of a mixture of different enzymes on the CPG.
However, the high costs of enzymes and the frequently observed loss of activity upon immobilization of the enzyme on solid support are obstacles in this development.
Despite progress made in recent years, there still is no general and simple method for the preparation of heterogeneous catalysts by immobilization of enzymes.

Preparation of Chelating CPG Carriers for Immobilization and Purification of Polyhistidine-Tagged Enzymes

[0122]Amino-CPG (5 g) of desired type was treated with 2,4-dihydroxy acetophenone (1.5 equiv. to the amino functionalities of the CPG) in methanol (200 mL) with continuous stirring for 60 min. The formed imine was reduced by sequential addition of sodium borohydride (4 equiv.) with continuous stirring for 60 min. The solid material was filtrated, rinsed with saturated aqueous sodium carbonate solution, water and then ethanol, and then dried at 80° C. for 2 h. The particles were then immersed in a saturated aqueous solution of CoCl2 (100 mL). After filtration and rinsing with water and ethanol, the particles were dried at 80° C. for 2 h. The properties of the different chelating CPG carriers are shown in Table 1.

Preparation of Chelating Porous Polystyrene and Polymethacrylate Carriers for Immobilization and Purification of Polyhistidine-Tagged Enzymes

[0124]Washed (water / ethanol 1:1, 400 mL) and dried (vacuum 16 h after filtration) amino functionalized porous organic polymer particles (2 g) of desired type (see below) was treated with 2,4-dihydroxy acetophenone (1.5 equiv. to the amino functionalities of the plastic) in methanol (50 mL) with continuous stirring for 60 min. The formed imine was reduced by sequential addition of sodium borohydride (4 equiv.) with continuous stirring for 60 min. The solid material was filtrated, rinsed with saturated aqueous sodium carbonate solution, water and then ethanol, and then dried in vacuum at 25° C. for 16 h.

Immobilization of Polyhistidine-Tagged Enzymes on Chelating Carriers

[0126]The cell culture supernatants containing CalA or CalB were used without buffering. The cell lysates of w-TA were prepared by cell resuspension in HEPES buffer (50 mM, 500 mM NaCl, pH 8.3). After addition of detergents (BugBuster™ 10×, Novagen), cell debris was removed by centrifugation. The chelating CPG carrier was immersed in the lysates or supernatants followed by stirring on an orbital shaker (150 rpm). Bradford analyzed samples of the solutions during immobilization confirmed the completion of the binding and saturation of the chelating CPG carrier as the protein concentration seized to decrease. Activity assays were also performed with the solutions after removal of the CPG carrier by filtration. The immobilized preparations were then rinsed with buffer (MOPS (50 mM, pH 7.4) for CalA and CalB; HEPES (see above) for ω-TA) and dried under vacuum for 16 h.
