Abstract

The present invention relates to diverse polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase (PHA synthase) mutants capable of synthesizing lactate polymers (PLAs) and lactate copolymers (PLA copolymers), and a preparation method of the lactate polymers and copolymers using the PHA synthase mutants. More specifically, the present invention relates to polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase mutants having SEQ. ID. NO: 2, 4, 6 or 8; and a preparation method of PLA polymers and PLA copolymers using the synthase mutants. According to the present invention, polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase mutants having SEQ. ID. NO: 2, 4, 6 or 8 can have PLA polymer and copolymer synthase activity by the variation in amino acid sequence that affects the PLA polymer synthase activity. Further, the use of such synthase mutants makes it possible to prepare PLA polymers and copolymers having different properties from each other.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to mutants of various polyhydroxyalkanoate synthases capable of synthesizing lactate polymers and lactate copolymers using lactyl-CoA (lactyl-CoA) as a substrate. Moreover, the present invention also relates to a method for preparing lactate polymers and lactate copolymers using a mutant of polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase having increased The activity of synthetic lactate polymers and lactate copolymers. Background technique [0002] Polylactate (PLA) is a common biodegradable polymer derived from lactate, which is very suitable as a polymer for medical use or general use. Currently, PLA is produced by the polymerization of lactic acid esters produced by microbial fermentation, however, this direct polymerization of lactic acid esters can only produce PLA with low molecular weight (1000-5000 Daltons). There is a method of polymerizing low-molecular-weight PLA produced by direct polymerization of lactate using a chain coupl...
