Hydroxynitrile lyase from cassava, Manihot esculenta (MeHNL), catalyzes the formation of (S)-cyanohydrins from HCN and aldehydes or ketones. (S)-Mandelonitrile was produced on a bench scale with immobilized MeHNL, after optimizing the enzyme expression sy

In this work, by utilizing photochromic spiropyrans conjugated upconversion nanophosphors, we have successfully prepared NIR/visible light tuned interfacially active nanoparticles for the formulation of Pickering emulsions with reversible inversion properties. By loading a model enantioselective biocatalytic active bacteria Alcaligenes faecalis ATCC 8750 in the aqueous phase, we demonstrated for the first time that the multifunctional Pickering emulsion not only highly enhanced its catalytic performance but also relieved the substrate inhibition effect. In addition, product recovery, and biocatalysts and colloid emulsifiers recycling could be easily realized based on the inversion ability of the Pickering emulsion. Most importantly, the utilization of NIR/visible light to perform the reversible inversion without any chemical auxiliaries or temperature variation showed little damage toward the biocatalysts, which was highlighted by the high catalytic efficiency and high enantioselectivity even after 10 cycles. The NIR/visible light controlled Pickering emulsion showed promising potential as a powerful technique for biocatalysis in biphasic systems.

HNL catalysis is usually carried out in a biphasic solvent and at low pH to suppress the non-enzymatic synthesis of racemic cyanohydrins. However, enzyme stability under these conditions remain a challenge. We have investigated the effect of different biocatalytic parameters, i.e., pH, temperature, buffer concentrations, presence of stabilizers, organic solvents, and chemical additives on the stability of Baliospermum montanum hydroxynitrile lyase (BmHNL). Unexpectedly, glycerol (50 mg/mL) added BmHNL biocatalysis had produced >99% of (S)-mandelonitrile from benzaldehyde, while without glycerol it is 54% ee. Similarly, BmHNL had converted 3-phenoxy benzaldehyde and 3,5-dimethoxy benzaldehyde, to their corresponding cyanohydrins in the presence of glycerol. Among the different stabilizers added to BmHNL at low pH, 400 mg/mL of sucrose had increased enzyme's half-life more than fivefold. BmHNL's stability study showed half-lives of 554, 686, and 690 h at its optimum pH 5.5, temperature 20 °C, buffer concentration, i.e., 100 mM citrate-phosphate pH 5.5. Addition of benzaldehyde as inhibitor, chemical additives, and the presence of organic solvents have decreased both the stability and activity of BmHNL, compared to their absence. Secondary structural study by CD-spectrophotometer showed that BmHNL's structure is least affected in the presence of different organic solvents and temperatures.

Enzymes are supreme catalysts when it comes to high enantiopurities and their immobilization will pave the way for continuous operation. In this context, we show the covalent immobilization of hydroxynitrile lyases HbHNL (from Hevea brasiliensis) and MeHN
