Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for increasing the content of thermus trehalose synthase, which belongs to the technical field of bioengineering. Background technique
[0002] Trehalose synthase (Trehalosesynthase, EC5.4.99.16) is an intramolecular glucosidic transferase that can specifically catalyze the conversion of α-1,4 glycosidic bonds of maltose into α-1,1 glycosidic bonds to generate trehalose. Trehalose is a non-reducing disaccharide formed by the condensation of two glucose molecules through hemiacetal hydroxyl groups. It has the special function of protecting the biofilm and biological macromolecules of organisms under adversity, and can endow lower animals and plants The ability to resist nutrient deficiency, high temperature, high osmotic pressure, dryness, toxic substances and other harsh environments, and microorganisms, so it has broad application prospects in the fields of biological products, food, medicine, crop breeding and fine c...
