Abstract
The enantioselective hydrolysis of racemic styrene oxide in organic solvents was conducted using a recombinant E. coli expressing protein-engineered Mugil cephalus epoxide hydrolase (McEH). The volumetric total activity of the recombinant E. coli was enhanced 2.2-fold by IPTG induction at a mid-exponential growth phase. Among organic solvents with different log P values, isooctane was chosen based on the high activity and the enantioselectivity of McEH. Some lyoprotectants such as skim milk or sucrose enhanced the McEH activity. Enantiopure (S)-Styrene oxide with a 98% ee was obtained from the racemic styrene oxide with a 53.6% yield based on its theoretical yield in isooctane.
