Taking advantage of the catalytic promiscuity of l-carbamoylase from Geobacillus stearothermophilus CECT43 (BsLcar) and N-succinyl-amino acid racemase from Geobacillus kaustophilus CECT4264 (GkNSAAR), we have evaluated the production of different optically pure l-alpha-amino acids starting from different racemic N-formyl- and N-carbamoyl-amino acids using a dynamic kinetic resolution approach. The enzymes were immobilized on two different solid supports, resulting in improved stability of the enzymes in terms of thermostability and storage when compared to the enzymes in solution. The bienzymatic system retained up to 80 % conversion efficiency after 20 weeks at 4 A degrees C and up to 90 % after 1 week at 45 A degrees C. The immobilization process also resulted in a great enhancement of the activity of BsLcar toward N-formyl-tryptophan, showing for the first time that substrate specificity of l-carbamoylases can be influenced by this approach. The system was effective for the biosynthesis of natural and unnatural l-amino acids (enantiomeric excess (e.e.) > 99.5 %), such as l-methionine, l-alanine, l-tryptophan, l-homophenylalanine, l-aminobutyric acid, and l-norleucine, with a higher performance toward N-formyl-alpha-amino acid substrates. Biocatalyst reuse was studied, and after 10 reaction cycles, over 75 % activity remained.
