l-Pipecolic acid is a key component of biologically active molecules and a pharmaceutically important chiral building block. It can be stereoselectively produced froml-lysine by a two-step bioconversion involvingl-lysine α-oxidase and ∆1-piperideine-2-carboxylae (Pip2C) reductase. In this study, we focused on anl-lysine α-oxidase fromScomber japonicusthat was originally identified as an apoptosis-inducing protein (AIP) and applied the enzyme to one-pot fermentation ofl-pipecolic acid inEscherichia coli. A synthetic gene coding for an AIP was expressed inE. coli, and the recombinant enzyme was purified and characterized. The purified enzyme was determined to be a homodimer with a molecular mass of 133.9 kDa. The enzyme essentially exhibited the same substrate specificity as the native enzyme. Optimal temperature and pH for the enzymatic reaction were 70 °C and 7.4, respectively. The enzyme was stable below 60 °C and at a pH range of 5.5–7.5 but was markedly inhibited by Co2+. To establish a one-pot fermentation system for the synthesis of optically purel-pipecolic acid fromdl-lysine, anE. colistrain carrying a plasmid encoding AIP, Pip2C reductase fromPseudomonas putida, lysine racemase fromP. putida, and glucose dehydrogenase fromBacillus subtiliswas constructed. The one-pot process produced 45.1 g/L ofl-pipecolic acid (87.4 % yield fromdl-lysine) after a 46-h reaction with high optical purity (>99.9 % enantiomeric excess).
