Summary: Non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) serve as useful materials for developing new medicines, materials, and bioactive probes. In this study, the beta-subunit of tryptophan synthase, TrpB, was engineered through directed evolution to improve its activity with diverse amine nucleophiles. Mechanistic analysis revealed hindrance to high yields due to product re-entry and subsequent decomposition. Additional equivalents of l-serine were able to inhibit product re-entry through kinetic competition, facilitating preparative scale synthesis. Several beta-substituted amino acids were synthesized using a variety of aryl amine nucleophiles, including demonstration on a gram scale. These amino acids represent an underexplored class of building blocks for chemical biology and medicinal chemistry.

Summary: In this study, directed evolution was used to engineer the beta-subunit of tryptophan synthase for improved activity in the synthesis of beta-substituted amino acids. Mechanistic analysis revealed that product re-entry into the catalytic cycle and subsequent decomposition hindered high yields, but additional equivalents of l-serine could inhibit product re-entry and facilitate preparative scale synthesis.

Summary: An efficient enantioselective synthesis of chiral alpha-disubstituted beta-homoprolines was developed by utilizing the stereodivergent allylation reaction of chiral N-tert-butanesulfinyl imines derived from 4-bromobutanal with indium or zinc catalysts. This methodology allows for easy introduction of different substituents at the alpha-position of the pyrrolidine scaffold and offers the flexibility to switch the absolute configuration of the newly formed stereocenter by altering the chiral auxiliary or the allylation protocol.

Summary: The synthesis of beta-hydroxy-alpha,alpha-difluorosulfonamides was achieved by reacting difluoromethanesulfonamides with KHMDS in the presence of an aldehyde or ketone. The reaction showed a significant counterion effect with KHMDS or NaHMDS providing excellent yields, while lithium bases did not give much product. The use of N-alpha-benzyl-N-alpha-phenylfluorenyl (PhF)-protected chiral amino aldehydes derived from amino acids resulted in excellent yields and high diastereomeric ratios. Following deprotection, a beta-hydroxy-alpha,alpha-sulfonamide reacted under peptide coupling and Mitsunobu conditions to produce a peptidomimetic compound with a high overall yield.

Summary: Enantiopure 1,2-amino alcohols derived from abundant amino acids were used in C-C bond-forming hydrogen-borrowing alkylation reactions for the first time. The use of Ph*COMe aryl ketone facilitated the reactions, preventing racemisation of the amine stereocentre. The Ph* and trityl groups could be easily cleaved in one pot to give GABA products without further purification, allowing the two steps to be performed in sequence without isolation of the hydrogen-borrowing intermediate, eliminating the need for column chromatography.

Summary: We have developed an integrated inventory model for deteriorating items in a two-echelon supply chain. In this model, the vendor produces a constant rate of a single product that is transferred to the buyer's warehouse in equal batches. Some products are displayed in the buyer's display area, and the demand is assumed to be positively dependent on the displayed products. The vendor incurs a warranty cost for each deteriorated item. We compared the total profit for forward and backward stock policies and found that the holding cost decreases downstream, leading to the adoption of the forward stock policy. The objective is to determine the number of deliveries and lot size that maximize the average profit of the system. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the model.

Summary: Alcohol dehydrogenases are enzymes that use cofactors for oxidation or reduction reactions of alcohols or carbonyl compounds. They are utilized in green chemistry and have applications in the production of pharmaceuticals. Recombinant enzymes have solved the challenge of producing purified enzymes in large quantities. Engineered alcohol dehydrogenases have been used in asymmetric synthesis in industry. Various methods have been established for regenerating expensive cofactors to make the enzymatic process more efficient and economically viable.
