Abstract

The question whether phage display can be used as a selection method in the directed evolution of enantioselective enzymes has not been answered satisfactorily to date. In order to be able to test this in a specific case, namely in the hydrolytic kinetic resolution of the acetate derived from α,β-isopropylideneglycerol (IPG) catalyzed by the lipase from Bacillus subtilis, suicide enzyme inhibitors anchored on porous glass or polymer beads were designed and synthesized. These are immobilized phosphonates, which bear a leaving group and also contain the chiral substrate ( d) and ( l)-IPG. Modified SIRAN ® (porous glass) and Tentagel ® (polymer) were chosen as carriers, attachment occurring via amide-forming coupling or Ru-catalyzed olefin metathesis. Initial lipase inhibition studies are also reported.
