AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Wild-type 7α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases suffer from low specific activity, poor thermal stability, and severe product feedback inhibition when preparing taurine-7-ketolithocholic acid (T-7-KLCA) or 7-ketolithocholic acid (7-KLCA), resulting in poor yields that cannot meet the needs of industrial applications.

Method used

7α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase derived from Clostridium absonum was modified using directed evolution technology. The mutant amino acid sites included V96T, D152K, and F204Y, resulting in a mutant enzyme with better thermal stability, higher catalytic activity, and weaker product inhibition.

Benefits of technology

The mutant enzyme exhibits higher specific activity, better thermal stability, and lower product inhibition when catalyzing the preparation of 7-KLCA or T-7-KLCA, with a shorter reaction time, meeting the needs of industrial applications.
