Biaryl compounds are ubiquitous metabolites that are often formed by dimerization through oxidative phenol coupling.Hindered rotation around the biaryl bond can cause axial chirality.I nn ature,d imerizations are catalyzed by oxidative enzymes such as laccases.T his class of enzymes is knownf or non-specific oxidase reactions while inherent enantioselectivity is hitherto unknown. Here,w ed escribe four related fungal laccases that catalyze g-naphthopyrone dimerization in ar egio-and atropselective manner.I nvitro assays revealed that three enzymes were highly P-selective (ee > 95 %), while one enzyme showed remarkable flexibility.I ts selectivity for M-or P-configured dimers varied depending on the reaction conditions.F or example,alower enzyme concentration yielded primarily (P)-ustilaginoidin A, whereas the Matropisomer was favored at higher concentration. These results demonstrate inherent enantioselectivity in an enzyme class that was previously thought to comprise only nonselective oxidases.
