Embodiment 1

[0071] Embodiment 1: the conversion of 2.5 tons of systems

[0072] Add 1600L of water, 120kg of glycine, and 55kg of formaldehyde solution (37%) in the bioreactor, and use concentrated ammonia to control the pH at 6.0 to 8.0; add 0.33kg of pyridoxal 5-phosphate, and use concentrated ammonia to control the pH At 6.0-8.0, the temperature is controlled at 32°C-38°C. Add 25kg of catechol and 650kg of enzyme solution containing recombinant D-threonine aldolase, recombinant D-serine dehydratase and recombinant tyrosine phenolase to start the reaction. During the reaction process, 37% formaldehyde solution was added to maintain the reaction pH between 6.0 and 8.0. After that, 5kg of substrate catechol was added every 10min. The total input amount of catechol is 176kg. After the catechol feeding was finished, the reaction was continued for 2 hours, and the sample was taken for detection. The concentration of levodopa was 67g / L, and the conversion rate was about 53.2%. After post-...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing levodopa with a one-pot enzymatic method. The method is characterized in that formaldehyde, glycine and catechol are taken as substrates; formaldehyde and glycine are subjected to a catalytic reaction in the presence of aldolase and other enzymes to be converted into serine, then, serine is converted into pyruvic acid and ammonia under the action of anhydrase, and finally, pyruvic acid and catechol react under the action of tyrosine phenol lyase to produce levodopa. The method adopts novel catalysis routh design and has the advantages of being simple to operate, short in production cycle, low in production cost, high in yield, low in environmental protection pressure, suitable for mass industrial production and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a biological preparation method of levodopa, in particular to a one-pot enzymatic method for preparing levodopa, which belongs to the field of bioengineering. Background technique [0002] Levodopa (3,4-dihydroxylphenylalanine, Levodopa), also known as L-dopa, chemical name is 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, CAS: 59-92-7, white crystalline powder, no Odorless and tasteless; it is an important biologically active substance in organisms and an important intermediate product in the biochemical metabolic pathway from L-tyrosine to catechol or melanin. Its structural formula is as follows: [0003] [0004] Levodopa is the first-line drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Although there will be some side effects after long-term use, more than 40 years have passed, and there is still no new alternative drug. Most of the drugs currently on the market are chemically synthesized. The synthesis process requires a large amount of...
