The use of methylmalonyl-CoA epimerase (MCEE) to improve stereoselectivity in crotonase-mediated biocatalysis is exemplified by the coupling of MCEE, crotonyl-CoA carboxylase reductase and carboxymethylproline synthase in a three-enzyme one-pot sequential synthesis of functionalised C-5 carboxyalkylprolines starting from crotonyl-CoA and carbon dioxide.
