Abstract:
The present invention discloses isolation of Penicillin Acylase (PA) from Achromobacter sp CCM 4824 expressed in recombinant strain E. coli BL21 CCM 7394 bearing the recombinant plasmid pKXIP1 and processing of PA into biocatalyst useful for the industrial synthesis of antibiotics. More particularly the invention discloses a synthesis of semi-synthetic β-lactam antibiotics in the reaction mixture consisting of activated acyl-donor (D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine methyl ester or amide for Amoxicillin and Cefadroxil; D-phenylglycine methyl ester or amide for Ampicillin and Cephalexin) and nucleophile (6-APA or 7-ADCA) catalyzed by PA obtained from recombinant E. coli BL21 CCM 7394 as the biocatalyst.
Abstract:

Abstract:
Process for the recovery of ampicillin from a mixture containing ampicillin and 6-aminopenicillic acid (6-APA), in which a mixture of ampicillin and 6-APA, with a pH higher than 7, which apart from any solid ampicillin being present is homogeneous at a pH between 7 and 8.5, is subjected to a pH lowering till a pH lower than 8.2 is reached, and the solid substance present is recovered. The process is in particular suitable to be applied to the reaction mixture which is obtained after the enzymatic acylation reaction of 6-APA with a phenylglycidine derivative as acylation agent. Pure ampicillin can thus be recovered in a simple way.
Abstract:
The disclosed process is for the recovery of cephalexin from a mixture containing cephalexin and 7-aminodesacetoxy cephalosporanic acid (7-ADCA), wherein a mixture of cephalexin and 7-ADCA, with a pH higher than 7, which apart from any solid cephalexin being present is homogeneous at a pH between 7 and 8.5, is subjected to a pH modification until a pH lower than 7.8 is reached, and the solid substance is recovered. The disclosed process is particularly suited for application to a reaction mixture obtained after the enzymatic acylation reaction of 7-ADCA with a phenylglycine derivative as an acylation agent. Pure cephalexin can thus be recovered in a simple manner.
Abstract:
A method for providing a semisynthetic .beta.-lactam antibiotic by enzyme catalyzed acylation of the parent .beta.-lactam with an activated derivative of the side chain acid wherein a modulator, which consists of one or more compounds different from the reactants and the reaction product and which suppresses the hydrolysis of the activated derivative of the side chain acid and the desired product more than it suppresses the synthesis of the desired product, is added to the reaction mixture, at the beginning of the reaction process, in a concentration from about 0.2 to 100.times.10.sup.3 .mu.m.
Abstract:
.beta.-Lactam derivatives are synthesized by an enzymatic reaction of the parent amino .beta.-lactam with the corresponding acylating agent, the concentration of the acylating agent plus the concentration of .beta.-lactam derivative in the reaction mixture being above about 400 mM.
Abstract:
An improved process for the large-scale production of penicillin acylase wherein the purified, cell-free enzyme is prepared by fermenting an E. coli cell strain and separating the intracellular enzyme under controlled temperature from the culture fluid by the rapid expulsion of the cell material into water through a peripheral slit from an applied pressure of at least 500 p.s.i., but not exceeding 3,000 p.s.i. The cell material is then stirred in the aqueous solution to dissolve the enzyme which is isolated as a purified acylase capable of transferring the side chain of a natural penicillin, especially benzylpenicillin, to accomplish the formation of 6aminopenicillanic acid by enzymatic degradation. Upon acylation of the 6-aminopenicillanic acid hypo-allergenic penicillins are obtained.
