Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a trehalose synthase and its encoding gene and application, belonging to the field of biotechnology. Background technique
[0002] Trehalose (Trehalose) is a non-reducing disaccharide composed of two glucopyranose molecules linked by α-1,1-glycosidic bonds, widely present in bacteria, yeast, filamentous fungi, plants, insects, organisms such as vertebrates. Studies have shown that its properties are stable and have very important biological significance to organisms. It is mainly manifested in the fact that it is a reserve of energy and carbon sources for organisms, a stabilizer and protector for proteins and biofilm molecules in harsh environments such as dehydration, high temperature, oxygen free radicals, and low temperature, and a signal-sensing complex and growth agent. It is not only a regulatory factor, but also one of the components of some bacterial cell walls, so trehalose has the reputation of "sugar of life" in th...
