Abstrakt: The enzymatic synthesis of 8-azapurine and 8-aza-7- deazapurine 2'-deoxyribonucleosides has been studied. Two methods have been used: (i) transglycosylation employing 2'-deoxyguanosine, 2'-deoxycytidine, 2'-deoxyuridine, and 2'-deoxythymidine as 2-deoxy-D-ribofuranose donors and recombinant E. coli purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) as biocatalyst, and (ii) one-pot synthesis from 2-deoxy-D-ribose and nucleobases employing recombinant E. coli ribokinase (RK), phosphopentomutase (PPM) and PNP as biocatalysts. Good substrate activity was observed for all bases studied except 2-amino-8-aza-6-chloro-7-deazapurine, which afforded the desired N9-nucleoside in moderate yield due to very low solubility of the base and partial replacement of C6-chloro atom of the base and formed nucleoside with a hydroxy group. The participation of Ser90 Oγ of E. coli PNP in the binding of 8-aza-7- deazapurines in the catalytic center of PNP followed by the formation of a productive complex and glycosidic bond is suggested.
