Embodiment 1

[0020] See GenBank: KR013755.1 for the nucleic acid sequence of the gene encoding VrEH3. The construction steps of E.coli / VrEH3 engineering bacteria expressing VrEH3 are as follows: synthesize the target gene, use pET-28a as the expression vector, and use E.coli BL21(DE3) as the expression host to construct the recombinant strain E.coli / VrEH3. Pick a single colony of E.coli / VrEH3 and culture it in 2mL LB medium at 37°C for 12h, then transfer it to fresh 100mL LB medium with an inoculum size of 2% (v / v), and culture it at 37°C After 2h, add the inducer IPTG to a final concentration of 0.05mM, incubate at 35°C for 10h, induce the high expression of VrEH3, collect the bacteria by centrifugation at 8000rpm, add 100mM, pH 7.0 phosphate buffer according to the ratio of 1g wet bacteria to 10mL buffer The suspension was prepared into a bacterial suspension with a bacterial concentration of 100 mg / mL and stored for later use.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing (R)-phenylglycol (PED) from racemic styrene oxide (rac-SO) under catalytic actions of double enzymes, belonging to the technical field of biological catalysis. By using rac-SO as the substrate, double epoxide hydrolases (epoxide hydrolase mutant AuEH2A250I and epoxide hydrolase VrEH3) are utilized to perform enantioconvergent hydrolysis on the rac-SO, thereby preparing the high-enantiopurity product (R)-PED. The VrEH3 derived from mung beans and AuEH2A250I derived from Aspergillus usamii are combined to perform enantioconvergent hydrolysis on the rac-SO for the first time in the invention. The ee value for preparing (R)-PED by using catalyzing 10mM rac-SO is 96.0%. The method has ideal behaviors applicable to industrial application, lays theoretical foundation for industrialized production of enzymes, and has higher industrialized application potential and economic value.
