Problems solved by technology

[0005] The CGTase derived from Paenibacillus macerans JFB 05-01 (CCTCC NO: M 208063) used in the present invention mainly produces α-cyclodextrin at the initial stage of the enzymatic conversion reaction without using an organic solvent, but as the reaction proceeds, The ratio of β-cyclodextrin, one of the by-products, increases significantly, which reduces the yield of CGTase (producing α-cyclodextrin) to the substrate, and also increases the difficulty of separation and purification

Abstract

The invention discloses a cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase mutant for high-specificity production of alpha-cyclodextrin, belonging to the field of enzyme engineering. The cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase mutant is prepared by transforming CGTase derived from Paenibacillus macerans JFB 05-01 and carrying out site-specific mutation on 145-site Asp,146-site Arg and 147-Asp of CGTase. The production capacity of beta-cyclodextrin of the prepared single mutant enzyme is lowered than that of wild-type CGTase, the production capacity of alpha-cyclodextrin is slightly increased, and the specificity of a principal product alpha-cyclodextrin is improved; double mutants and three mutants are obtained through combined mutation at the mutation sites of the CGTase; compared with the wild-type CGTase, the production capacity of the beta-cyclodextrin of the mutants is remarkably lowered, the production capacity of the alpha-cyclodextrin is slightly improved, the specificity of the principal product alpha-cyclodextrin is improved, and therefore, the industrial production of the alpha-cyclodextrin is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase mutant capable of producing alpha-cyclodextrin with high specificity, and a preparation and application method thereof, belonging to the field of enzyme engineering. Background technique [0002] Cyclodextrin (Cyclodextrin, referred to as CD), is a kind of starch or starch substrate under the action of cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase (abbreviated as CGTase), which is composed of D-glucopyranose unit through α-1,4- Cyclic compounds connected end to end by glycosidic bonds, common cyclodextrins are composed of 6, 7 and 8 glucose units, called α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins, respectively. The barrel structure of cyclodextrin molecules, which are hydrophilic on the outside and hydrophobic on the inside, allows them to form clathrates with many types of hydrophobic guest molecules, thereby changing the physical and chemical properties of these guest molecules. This unique property makes it widely used...
