We present a one-pot chemo-enzymatic microscale synthesis of NADPH with two different patterns of isotopic labels: (4R)-[Ad-14C,4-2H] NADPH and (4R)-[Ad-3H,4-2H] NADPH. These co-factors are required by an enormous range of enzymes, and isotopically labeled nicotinamides are consequently of significant interest to researchers. In the current procedure, [Ad-14C] NAD+ and [Ad-3H] NAD+ were phosphorylated by NAD+ kinase to produce [Ad-14C] NADP+ and [Ad-3H] NADP+, respectively. Thermoanaerobium brockii alcohol dehydrogenase was then used to stereospecifically transfer deuterium from C2 of isopropanol to the re face of C4 of NADP+. After purification by HPLC, NMR analysis indicated the deuterium content at the 4R position is more than 99.7 %. The labeled cofactors were then used to successfully and sensitively measure kinetic isotope effects for R67 dihydrofolate reductase, providing strong evidence for the utility of this synthetic methodology. |
