Problems solved by technology

However, the reaction time of this method is too long, it is easy to produce cis-trans mixture, the solvent consumption is large, and the productive rate is low
The second category is to use different extraction methods to extract from different materials. For example, the industry mainly uses the alkaline method to decompose γ-oryzanol in rice bran to produce high-purity ferulic acid, but this method has low yield, environmental pollution and high cost. Restricted large-scale production and application of ferulic acid

Embodiment 1

[0027] Embodiment 1: Construction of pET28a-COMT recombinant plasmid:

[0028] 1. The pET28a plasmid is a Novagen product, with a size of 5369bp, containing a strong T7 promoter, a kanamycin resistance gene, and a lactose repressor lac I gene.

[0029] 2. Design two expression primers (A1: CGCGGATCCATGAATACGGAGCTGATCCCACC; A2: CGGAATTCACATTAAGCAGATGCCAGACACCC) containing the complete reading frame of Chuanxiong COMT and BamH1 in the forward direction and EcoR1 in the reverse direction. Ligusticum chuanxiong COMT fragment containing two restriction sites of BamH1 and EcoR1 at the end. The PCR system is: Primer star mix (Bao Biological Company) 25ul, cDNA 2ul, primer 1 2ul, primer 2 2ul, double distilled water to make up 50ul. The PCR system was 94°C for 5min, 94°C for 1min, 66-68°C for 1min, 72°C for 2min, 35 cycles, 72°C for 10min, 4°C∞.

[0030] 3. After the gel was recovered, the amplified COMT fragment of Ligusticum chuanxiong and the pET28a vector were double-digested wi...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for synthesizing ferulic acid through an enzyme method, wherein the methyl on S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) is transferred onto caffeic acid so as to finally form the product ferulic acid. The method comprises: a) highly expressing ligusticum chuanxiong hort caffeic acid-O methyltransferase(COMT) through fermentation of escherichia coli, collecting bacteria through centrifugation, re-suspending the bacteria with a Tris-HCl buffer solution, and carrying out ultrasonic bacterial lysis to obtain a mixed enzyme solution containing the ligusticum chuanxiong hort COMT; and b) transferring the methyl provided by SAM to the caffeic acid through the ligusticum chuanxiong hort COMT obtained in the step a), and finally converting into the ferulic acid. The method of the present invention has advantages of simple process, mild reaction condition, high conversion efficiency, low conversion cost, and the like.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of bioengineering applications, in particular to the construction of a genetically engineered strain of recombinant E. Enzymatic conversion method of ferulic acid into ferulic acid. Background technique: [0002] Ferulic acid is a phenolic acid ubiquitous in the plant kingdom, and its chemical name is 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamic acid. It has many health functions, such as scavenging free radicals, antithrombotic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, inhibiting tumors, preventing hypertension, heart disease, enhancing sperm motility, inhibiting human epidermal melanocyte proliferation, melanin synthesis and tyrosinase activity, etc. Used in the field of key cosmetics. Ferulic acid is mainly used in the food industry to prepare natural vanillin, antioxidants, preservatives, cross-linking agents and function accelerators. At the same time, ferulic acid has low toxicity and is easy to be metabolized by the human body. ...
