Problems solved by technology

Due to harsh conditions in the chemical synthesis process, many side reactions, difficult separation and purification of products, low yield and high cost, it is difficult to become an ideal method for commercial scale synthesis
Enzymatic preparation and chiral (S)-4-chloro-3-hydroxy-butyric acid ethyl ester require the use of a stereoselective ketoreductase, but the existing wild-type ketoreductase has very low catalytic activity. 10g / L crude enzyme powder can only convert 1g / L ketone substrate in 20 hours, which also makes it difficult to be an ideal method for commercial scale synthesis

Embodiment 1

[0023] Example 1 Constructing wild-type and ketoreductase mutant engineering bacteria

[0024]After the polynucleotide (SEQ ID NO: 1) encoding the wild-type ketoreductase from Lactobacillus kefir (Lactobacillus kefir) was sequence optimized according to the codon preference of strain DH1 (see Puigbò P, Guzmán E, Romeu A , Garcia-Vallvé S. OPTIMIZER: a web server for optimizing the codonusage of DNA sequences. Nucleic Acids Res. 2007), through PCR-based gene synthesis method (PCR-based gene synthesis method) for gene synthesis. The optimized polynucleotide encoding ketoreductase was cloned under the control of the promoter of the expression vector (SEQ ID NO. 5) to obtain a plasmid capable of expressing wild-type ketoreductase. The resulting plasmid was transformed into E. coli DH1 by standard methods. The cloning method used is homologous recombination, and the amplification primers used are:

Embodiment 2

[0028] Example 2 Preparation of ketoreductase

[0029] Pick a single colony of Escherichia coli DH1 containing the target expression vector and inoculate it in 10ml of high-pressure sterilized medium: tryptone 10 g / L, yeast extract 5 g / L, disodium hydrogen phosphate 3.55 g / L, diphosphate Potassium hydrogen 3.4 g / L, ammonium chloride 2.68 g / L, sodium sulfate 0.71 g / L, magnesium sulfate heptahydrate 0.493 g / L, ferric chloride hexahydrate 0.027 g / L, glycerin 5g / L, glucose 0.8g / L L, add ampicillin to 100mg / L after sterilization. Cultivate overnight at 30°C, 250rpm. The next day, take a 1L Erlenmeyer flask and insert it into 100ml of high-pressure sterilized medium at an inoculation ratio of 1:100: tryptone 10 g / L, yeast extract 5 g / L, disodium hydrogen phosphate 3.55 g / L, Potassium dihydrogen phosphate 3.4 g / L, ammonium chloride 2.68 g / L, sodium sulfate 0.71 g / L, magnesium sulfate heptahydrate 0.493 g / L, ferric chloride hexahydrate 0.027 g / L, glycerin 5g / L, glucose 0.3 g / L.

Embodiment 3

[0031] Example 3 Determination of Ketoreductase Activity

[0032] Since NADPH has an absorption peak at 340nm, while NADP has no absorption peak at 340nm, the activity of ketoreductase can be calculated by detecting the change of NADPH absorbance value during the reaction. The ketoreductase activity assay system is as follows: take 100ul of an appropriate concentration of enzyme solution and add it to a final concentration of 100mM pH7.0 triethanolamine buffer solution, 1g / L NADP, 50% isopropanol, 1mM magnesium sulfate reaction system for reaction. Before adding the enzyme solution, the reaction system needs to be thoroughly mixed and placed in a 25°C water bath. After diluting the dry powder of ketoreductase prepared in Embodiment 2 in an appropriate ratio, take 100ul and add it into the reaction system, and after mixing, detect the change value of absorbance per minute at 340nm. The enzymatic activity of ketoreductase was calculated with reference to the NADPH standard curv...

Abstract

The invention relates to a ketoreductase mutant deriving from wild type ketoreductase of lactobacillus kefir. The ketoreductase mutant is capable of converting ethyl-4-chloroacetoacetate to generate (S)-4-chloro-3-hydroxy ethyl butyrate and has one or multiple of mutations in A94S, F147V, L199P and A202V. The ketoreductase mutant provided by the invention has obvious high specific enzyme activity which is improved by 2-20 times in comparison with the wild type ketoreductase; the enzyme can be used for biologically catalyzing to convert the ethyl-4-chloroacetoacetate to generate (S)-4-chloro-3-hydroxy ethyl butyrate; the reaction condition is mild, and the requirement on equipment is low, the production process is free from high temperature or cooling, and the energy consumption is low; since the enzyme catalysis is efficient and unique in selectivity, the method can be used for producing statins key intermediate (S)-4-chloro-3-hydroxy ethyl butyrate without producing byproduct, and the purification is convenient; in addition, the vast majority solvent in the reaction is water, the three-waste emission is low, and the ketoreductase mutant is environmental friendly.
