Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for increasing the rate of water-organic two-phase enzymatic reaction, in particular to a method for increasing the in vitro reaction rate of phytoene dehydrogenase, belonging to the technical field of bioengineering. Background of the invention
[0002] Phytoene desaturase (phytoene desaturase 1.14.99.-) is a key enzyme in the synthesis and metabolism of carotenoids, which can catalyze colorless phytoene to generate colored carotenoids. Enzymes are widely found in plants and microorganisms. According to the number of dehydrogenation, there are at most 6 kinds of products of phytoene dehydrogenase, which are hexahydrophytoene, ζ-carotene, streptoerythrin, lycopene, 3,4-dide Phytoene, 3,4,3',4'-tetradehydrolycopene, among which phytoene dehydrogenase with streptosporine and lycopene as products is the most common. Almost all carotenoids naturally occurring in nature are produced with streptosporin or lycopene as inter...
