AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, the synthesis methods of CN and NN bonds have problems such as expensive catalysts, complex reaction steps, high risk of raw materials and limited biosynthetic pathways. In particular, in the biosynthesis of nitrogen-containing natural products, the catalytic mechanism is not understood and there is a lack of bifunctional enzymes that can catalyze CN and NN bonds simultaneously.
A bifunctional enzyme, PAI2, capable of synthesizing both CN and NN bonds, was developed. Overexpression engineered bacteria were constructed using gene cloning and a recombinant vector. The target gene pai2 was cloned into the vector pET22b using Nde I and Xho I restriction sites, and a His tag was added. High-purity PAI2 enzyme was obtained after purification and used to catalyze the synthesis of proline and azaproline from L-N4-OH-diaminobutyric acid and 2-amino-5-hydroxyvalerate.
This method enables the efficient synthesis of proline and azaproline under mild conditions, expands the family of CN-bond synthases and NN-bond synthases, provides a green and environmentally friendly biosynthetic pathway, and overcomes the limitations of traditional methods.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of biochemistry and synthetic biology, specifically relating to a bifunctional enzyme PAI2 with CN and NN bond synthesis capabilities, its preparation method, and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds are a very important class of organic synthesis intermediates, including pyridine containing a single nitrogen atom and pyrazole, piperazine, triazole, etc. containing multiple nitrogen atoms. They are the basic skeletons of many natural products with important physiological activities such as anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antibacterial activity (WANG S, ZHANG B, CHEN J, et al. Recent Progress in Synthesis of Polysubstituted Pyrazoles[J]. Chinese Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2020, 40(1):). Among them, proline is one of the important amino acids for synthesizing human proteins and is also an important intermediate for synthesizing first-line antihypertensive drugs such as captopril and enalapril. Proline derivative azaproline is an important substrate in biologically important peptide sequences related to metallopeptidase activity and in organic catalysis (DUTTAGUPTA I, GOSWAMI K, SINHA S. Synthesis of cyclic α-hydrazino acids[J]. Tetrahedron, 2012, 68(39): 8347-57.). However, although the synthesis of proline has been industrialized, the synthesis of azaproline is very difficult. Only a few synthesized δ-azaproline (VOSS E, ARRAULT A, BODIGUEL J, et al. Efficient synthesis of enantiomerically pure(S)-delta-azaproline starting from(R)-alpha-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone via the Mitsunobu reaction[J]. Tetrahedron-Asymmetry, 2009, 20(15): 1809-12.) or substituted azaproline (GUERRA FM, MISH MR, CARREIRA E M. Versatile, diastereoselective additions of silyl ketene acetals, allyl tributylstannane, and Me3SiCN to N-acyl pyrazolines: Asymmetric synthesis of densely functionalized pyrazolidines[J]. Organic Letters, 2000, 2(26): 4265-7.)The synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds mainly involves the formation of CN or NN bonds. Therefore, the importance of developing effective synthetic strategies to generate CN and NN bonds is beyond doubt.
[0003] In recent decades, the development of transition metal catalysts has made them important tools for the synthesis of CN bonds. However, traditional methods inevitably suffer from problems such as expensive catalysts and metal residues that urgently need to be addressed. Furthermore, the complex reaction steps and limited substrate diversity have hindered the widespread application of this method. In the chemical synthesis of compounds containing N-N bonds, although existing research has shown that intramolecular or intermolecular N-N bonds can be constructed through various methods (GUO Q, LU Z. Recent Advances in Nitrogen–Nitrogen Bond Formation[J]. Synthesis, 2017, 49(17):3835-47.), the synthesis of N-N bonds often uses hydrazine hydrate as a raw material, such as 1,2,4-triazol-5-one and benzoyl hydrazine (NAMMALWARB, MUDDALA NP, WATTS FM, et al. Efficient conversion of acids and esters toamides and transamidation of primary amides using OSU-6[J]. Tetrahedron, 2015, 71(48):9101-11.). These synthetic methods are simple and effective, but the raw material hydrazine hydrate used in them is a highly toxic substance, corrosive, and prone to explosion, posing a problem of raw material sustainability. The synthesis of other N-N bond compounds, such as melamine, requires the substrate urea to react under high temperature and pressure conditions of 0.5-7 MPa and 380-400℃, which poses certain risks. Therefore, it is still necessary to continuously search for or optimize existing chemical synthesis routes, such as free radical reactions of C(sp2)-H bonds in transition metal-free systems (WU Y, CHEN J, LI Q, et al. Progress in C—N Bond Formation Involving C(sp2)—HBond through Transition-Metal-Free Radical Reactions[J]. Chinese Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2020, 40(3):), or to develop green and environmentally friendly biosynthetic routes that can be conveniently carried out under mild conditions using readily available raw materials and inexpensive catalysts.
[0004] However, in the biosynthetic pathways of nitrogen-containing natural products, only a few examples of direct CH bond amination catalyzed by cytochrome P450 to form Indolactam V have been elucidated, such as LtxB (HUYNH MU, ELSTON MC, HERNANDEZ NM, et al. Enzymatic Production of (-)-Indolactam V by LtxB, a Cytochrome P450 Monooxygenase[J]. J Nat Prod, 2010, 73(1):71-4.), TleB (HE F, MORIT, MORITA I, et al. Molecular basis for the P450-catalyzed CN bond formation in indolactam biosynthesis[J]. Nat Chem Biol, 2019, 15(12):1206-13.), and HinD (WEI J, LIUY. Mechanistic Insights into the P450 TleB-Catalyzed Unusual Intramolecular CN). Bond Formation Involved in the Biosynthesis of Indolactam V[J]. J Chem Inf Model, 2021, 61(7): 3638-48.), etc., the catalytic mechanism and protein structure have been elucidated. However, more than ten N-N bond synthases have been reported, including KtzT (DU YL, HE HY, HIGGINS MA, et al. A heme-dependent enzyme forms the nitrogen-nitrogen bond in piperazate[J].

Currently, the number of discovered CN-bond synthases and NN-bond synthases is small, and no bifunctional enzymes capable of simultaneously catalyzing CN-bonds and NN-bonds have been reported, highlighting the urgent need for their development.

[0053] Example 2: Preparation of the bifunctional enzyme PAI2
[0054] (1) Obtaining crude PAI2 enzyme solution
[0055] The single colony obtained in Example 1 was inoculated into 20 mL of LB medium (containing 50 μg / ml Amp, 25 μg / ml Cm) and cultured at 37°C with shaking for 7-8 h to obtain seed culture.

[0056] (2) Purification of crude PAI2 enzyme solution
[0057] His-labeled proteins were separated using Ni-NTA resin.

The solution was filtered through a membrane and analyzed by LC-MS.
[0062] LC-MS detection:
[0063] LC-MS analysis was performed on a Bruker U3000 liquid chromatography-QTOF tandem mass spectrometer using an Agilent SB-AQ (5 μm, 4.6 mm × 250 mm) column. Samples were eluted at 0.2 mL / min using water and acetonitrile ((v / v): 80:20–30:70, 0–10 min; 30:70–0:100, 10–12 min; 0:100, 12–15 min; 0:100–80:20, 15–16 min; 80:20, 16–25 min), both containing 0.1% (v / v) formic acid.
