The transformations of transaminases have been extensively studied as an approach to the production of chiral amino moieties. However, the low equilibrium conversion of the reaction is a critical disadvantage to transaminase application, and a strategy for shifting the reaction equilibrium is essential. Herein, we have developed a novel method to effectively prevent the reversibility of transamination by fully decomposing byproduct α-ketoglutarate into ethylene and carbon dioxide in situ using ethylene-forming enzyme (EFE). Two transaminases and one EFE were expressed in E. coli and purified to be used in the cascade reaction. After optimal reaction conditions were determined based on the enzymatic properties, a cascade reaction coupling transaminase with EFE was conducted and showed high efficiency in the synthesis of l-phosphinothricin. Finally, using this approach with only an equivalent amount of amino donor l-glutamate increased the conversions of various keto acids from < 60% to > 99%. This strategy shows great potential for transamination using glutamate as the amino donor.
