The use of enzymes for the synthesis of nucleoside analogues offers several advantages over multistep chemical methods, including chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivity as well as milder reaction conditions. Herein, the production, characterization and utilization of a purine nucleoside 2’-deoxyribosyltransferase (PDT) from Trypanosoma brucei are reported. TbPDT is a dimer which displays not only excellent activity and stability over a broad range of temperatures (50–70 °C), pH (4–7) and ionic strength (0–500 mM NaCl) but also an unusual high stability under alkaline conditions (pH 8–10). TbPDT is shown to be proficient in the biosynthesis of numerous therapeutic nucleosides, including didanosine, vidarabine, cladribine, fludarabine and nelarabine. The structure-guided replacement of Val11 with either Ala or Ser resulted in variants with 2.8-fold greater activity. TbPDT was also covalently immobilized on glutaraldehyde-activated magnetic microspheres. MTbPDT3 was selected as the best derivative (4200 IU/g, activity recovery of 22 %), and could be easily recaptured and recycled for >25 reactions with negligible loss of activity. Finally, MTbPDT3 was successfully employed in the expedient synthesis of several nucleoside analogues. Taken together, our results support the notion that TbPDT has good potential as an industrial biocatalyst for the synthesis of a wide range of therapeutic nucleosides through an efficient and environmentally friendly methodology.

The present invention concerns a process for the production of asymmetrical phosphoric acid diesters. The process is characterized in that a phosphoric acid ester is condensed with a compound containing hydroxy groups in the presence of an arylsulfonic acid chloride and an organic base, the residue of evaporation is stirred out with an organic solvent after the hydrolysis, the arylsulfonic acid pyridine salt which forms is nearly completely crystallized and recycled, the lipid derivative that is formed is precipitated as a sparingly soluble salt by addition of a solution containing alkaline-earth ions and isolated, the sparingly soluble salt is isolated as the free acid in an organic solvent by suspension in a water-immiscible organic solvent and a dilute aqueous mineral acid, the crude product is purified if desired, by means of preparative chromatography on a RP phase and subsequently the free acid is converted if desired into any desired salt.
