Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a mutant and a genetically engineered bacterium for catalyzing the synthesis of D-chiro-inositol. Background Art

[0002] D-chiro-inositol (DCI) is an isomer of myo-inositol (MI) found primarily in nature, such as buckwheat and legumes. D-chiro-inositol has numerous physiological functions and can be used to treat conditions such as type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome, and inhibit liver fibrosis. It is also used as a health supplement ingredient and dietary supplement. Currently, multiple brands of D-chiro-inositol health supplements are available in the United States, demonstrating broad market prospects.

[0003] Currently, D-chiro-inositol is typically produced through plant extraction, chemical synthesis, or hydrolysis of kasugamycin. Plant-derived D-chiro-inositol is typically extracted from plants such as buckwheat and carob. However, due to the low content of D-chiro-inositol in these plants, the cost of separation and extraction is high. Chemical synthesis of D-chiro-inositol is complex, by-products are difficult to separate, and residual organic solvents are unavoidable, affecting product quality. Large amounts of organic solvents are required, which is environmentally unfriendly. Furthermore, D-chiro-inositol can be produced by hydrolyzing D-pinitol or kasugamycin, but these raw materials are expensive, making them uneconomical. At present, the biotransformation method will become the most promising route for the preparation of D-chiro-inositol due to its advantages such as mildness, safety and environmental protection. However, the current biotransformation route converts inositol into scyllo-inositol (2KMI) through inositol dehydrogenase (ioIG), then converts scyllo-inositol into 1-keto-chiro-inositol (1KDCI) through ketoisomerase (ioII), and finally converts 1-keto-chiro-inositol into D-chiro-inositol through inositol dehydrogenase (ioIG). Since the two-enzyme three-step conversion reaction is reversible, the conversion rate of D-chiro-inositol is low. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The first technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: to address the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a mutant that allows the reaction to proceed in the forward direction, thereby increasing the conversion rate of D-chiro-inositol.

[0007] (1) the 123rd methionine in the amino acid sequence is replaced with alanine;

[0008] (2) the 157th valine in the amino acid sequence is replaced with serine;

[0009] (3) the 157th valine in the amino acid sequence is replaced with alanine;

[0010] (4) the 171st alanine in the amino acid sequence is replaced with tyrosine;

[0011] (5) the 277th tyrosine in the amino acid sequence is replaced with alanine;

[0012] (6) the 157th valine in the amino acid sequence is replaced with alanine, and the 171st alanine is replaced with tyrosine. The nucleotide sequence of the inositol dehydrogenase is shown in SEQ ID NO. 1, and the amino acid sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO. 2.
