Computational methods have now become a valuable tool to understand the way in which enzymes catalyse chemical reactions and to aid the interpretation of a diverse set of experimental data. This study focuses on the influence of the condensed-phase environment structure on proton transfer mechanisms, with an aim to understand how C–H bond cleavage is mediated in enzymatic reactions. We shall use a combination of molecular simulation, ab initio or semi-empirical quantum chemistry and semi-classical multidimensional tunnelling methods to consider the primary kinetic isotope effects of the enzyme methylamine dehydrogenase (MADH), with reference to an analogous application to triosephosphate isomerase. Analysis of potentially reactive conformations of the system, and correlation with experimental isotope effects, have highlighted that a quantum tunnelling mechanism in MADH may be modulated by specific amino acid residues, such as Asp428, Thr474 and Asp384.

Directed evolution requires the screening of enzyme libraries in biological matrices. Available assays are mostly substrate or enzyme specific. Chromatographic techniques like LC and GC overcome this limitation, but require long analysis times. The herein developed multiple injections in a single experimental run (MISER) using GC coupled to MS allows the injection of samples every 33 s resulting in 96-well microtiter plate analysis within 50 min. This technique is implementable in any GC-MS system with autosampling. Since the GC-MS is far less prone to ion suppression than LCMS, no chromatographic separation is required. This allows the utilisation of an internal standards and the detection of main and side-product. To prove the feasibility of the system in enzyme screening, two libraries were assessed: i) YfeX library in an E. coli whole cell system for the carbene-transfer reaction on indole revealing the novel axial ligand tryptophan, ii) a library of 616 chimeras of fungal unspecific peroxygenase (UPO) in S. cerevisiae supernatant for hydroxylation of tetralin resulting in novel constructs. The data quality and representation are automatically assessed by a new R-script.
