Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of genetic engineering, in particular to a purine nucleoside phosphorylase and a preparation method thereof. Background technique
[0002] Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP for short), is one of the key enzymes in the purine salvage synthesis pathway, widely exists in mammals, parasites and microorganisms. According to the protein structure of purine nucleoside phosphorylase, it can be divided into two categories: low molecular weight homotrimers and high molecular weight homohexamers. Among them, the purine nucleoside phosphorylases of mammals and some microorganisms (such as Salmonella typhimurium, thermophilic archaea Sulfolobus solfataricus, etc.) belong to the homotrimer class, and its molecular weight is about 80-100kDa. The molecular weight of each subunit is 30-32kDa, and usually this kind of purine nucleoside phosphorylase can only use guanosine and inosine as substrates. The homohexamer purine nucleosid...
