Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing oligosaccharides by combining glycoside phosphorylase with monosaccharide kinase and polyphosphate kinase, and belongs to the technical field of biosynthesis. Background Art

[0002] Carbohydrates are the most abundant biopolymers in nature. As part of most living organisms, they are widely found in plants, animals and microorganisms. These carbohydrates are polymerized from monosaccharides and their derivatives to form oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. They can also form glycoconjugates such as glycoproteins and glycolipids through covalent bonds with proteins and fat chains. Sugar chains such as oligosaccharides and polysaccharides with specific structures have important biological functions and have been and continue to be used in the fields of medicine, population health, etc.

[0003] In addition to extraction from natural products, chemical synthesis and enzymatic synthesis are important methods for preparing sugar chains. Chemical synthesis requires multiple steps such as protection, deprotection and selective modification, and has problems such as cumbersome operation, low yield and environmental pollution. The bioenzymatic method uses enzyme catalysis to synthesize oligosaccharides or polysaccharides with specific structures. It is simple to operate, has a relatively higher yield and is environmentally friendly. In the enzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides, there are mainly three commonly used enzymes: glycosyltransferases, glycoside hydrolases and their engineered mutant transglycosylases, and glycoside phosphorylases (GPs).

[0004] The most commonly used tool enzyme in enzymatic synthesis is glycosyltransferase, which catalyzes the formation of glycosidic bonds between activated glycosyl donor sugar nucleotides and unactivated glycosyl acceptors. Glycosyltransferase reactions require the use of sugar nucleotides as donor substrates, but sugar nucleotides are expensive, the glycosylation process is subject to feedback inhibition by the byproduct nucleoside diphosphate, and the limited source of glycosyltransferases. These factors limit the application of glycosyltransferases in large-scale sugar synthesis.

[0005] Compared with glycosyltransferases, glycoside phosphorylases (GPs) use monosaccharide-1-phosphate (monosaccharide-1-P) as a donor substrate, which has the advantages of easy availability of donor substrates and low cost. At the same time, GPs generally have a broader substrate specificity. Glucoside phosphorylase was discovered to be the earliest and most widely used enzyme. Typical applications include the preparation of glycerol glucoside used as a cosmetic additive, cellulose oligosaccharides / cellulose dextrins as functional foods, etc. Glucoside phosphorylase uses glucose-1-phosphate as a donor substrate to synthesize oligosaccharides, and glucose-1-phosphate can be obtained by sucrose phosphorylase using sucrose as a substrate.

[0006] In addition to synthesizing glucosides, GPs are also used as biocatalysts to synthesize other important sugar chains, mainly in the discovery of GPs related to galactose (Gal), N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and mannose (Man) and their applications in oligosaccharide synthesis. For example, galactosyl-beta1,3-N-acetyl-D-hexosamine phosphorylase (BiGHNP) from Bifidobacterium infantis is used to synthesize human milk oligosaccharide components lacto-N-biose (Gal-beta1,3-GlcNAc, LNB), galacto-N-biose (Gal-beta1,3-GalNAc, GNB), tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen T-antigen, sialylated T-antigen, Lewis a, etc. with galactose-1-phosphate (Gal-1-P). Chitobiose phosphorylase (VpCPase) from Vibrio proteolyticus and other sources synthesizes chitobiose from GlcNAc-1-P, and beta1,4-mannose phosphorylase BtMPase from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron VPI-5482 synthesizes 1,2-cis mannosides, including protein N-sugar chain core trisaccharide Man-beta1,4-GlcNAc-beta1,4-GlcNAc, from mannose-1-phosphate (Man-1-P).

[0007] The synthesis of oligosaccharides by Gal, GlcNAc and Man-related GPs requires the corresponding monosaccharide-1-P, namely Gal-1-P, GlcNAc-1-P and Man-1-P. These three monosaccharide-1-P are mainly synthesized by ATP (adenosine triphosphate)-dependent monosaccharide kinase (GlyK), such as galactokinase GalK from Bifidobacterium infantis and Escherichia coli, and NahK from Bifidobacterium longum. The synthesis of GlcNAc-1-P and Man-1-P. Monosaccharide kinase and GPs can be combined in a one-pot reaction to prepare glycoside products (galactoside, GlcNAc glycoside, mannoside) from ATP, monosaccharides (Gal, GlcNAc, Man), and acceptor sugar substrates, and produce by-products ADP and phosphate. The specific process is shown in the following formula.

[0008]

[0009] The combined reaction of monosaccharide kinase and GPs can promote the reversible reaction catalyzed by GPs to the direction of oligosaccharide synthesis, so that the synthesis yield of oligosaccharides LNB and GNB catalyzed by BiGHNP can reach more than 90%, and it also provides a method for the convenient preparation of protein N-glycan core trisaccharide Man-beta1,4-GlcNAc-beta1,4-GlcNAc. However, these synthesis reactions require a large amount of ATP, resulting in high costs, which seriously limits the large-scale production of oligosaccharides. Summary of the invention

[0010] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing oligosaccharides by combining glycoside phosphorylase with monosaccharide kinase and polyphosphate kinase. The oligosaccharides are synthesized by combining glycoside phosphorylase GP with monosaccharide kinase GlyK and polyphosphate kinase PPK, which solves the problem of adding a large amount of expensive sugar nucleotide donors and auxiliary factor ATP in the process of enzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides. The present invention provides a method for synthesizing oligosaccharides by catalysis of polyphosphate kinase EbPPK, monosaccharide kinase GalK or NahK, glycoside phosphorylase BiGHNP or VpCPase or BtMPase from microorganisms, and is applied to the preparation of oligosaccharides, realizing the simple and efficient enzymatic synthesis preparation of four oligosaccharide derivatives of LNB, GNB, chitobiose, and protein N-sugar chain core trisaccharide derivatives.

The monosaccharide kinase GalK encoding gene is artificially synthesized. The nucleotide sequence is shown as SEQ ID NO.2. The nucleotide sequence is codon-optimized and suitable for recombinant expression in Escherichia coli.

[0103] The artificially synthesized monosaccharide kinase GalK encoding gene was inserted into the vector pET-22b to obtain a recombinant expression vector; the recombinant expression vector was transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells, spread on LB plates containing 50 μg / mL antibiotics, and cultured at 37°C overnight; a single colony was picked, and the recombinant E. coli was preserved after being cultured in LB liquid culture medium overnight.

[0104] Take the stored recombinant E. coli and inoculate it into 50mL LB liquid medium, activate it at 37℃ overnight; take 10mL of the activated bacterial solution and inoculate it into 1L LB liquid medium, and culture it at 37℃, 180-220rpm until OD 600 The pH value was about 0.6, and the mixture was taken out and cooled in an ice water bath; IPTG was added at a final concentration of 0.2 mM, and the expression was induced at 16°C for 20 hours; the bacteria were collected using a vertical centrifuge (8000 rpm, 10 min, 4°C), and the bacteria were resuspended in a buffer solution (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl), and the resuspended bacteria were placed in an ice-water mixture for ultrasonic disruption (power 40 W, ultrasound 3 s, interval 2 s, disruption 30 min); the disrupted bacterial solution was centrifuged (4°C, 12000 rpm, 30 min), and the supernatant was collected.

The impurities were thoroughly washed away with a buffer containing 20mM imidazole, and the target protein was eluted with a buffer containing 500mM imidazole. The protein was desalted and concentrated by ultrafiltration, and the protein concentration was determined by the Bradford method. 20% glycerol was added to the obtained protein, stored in aliquots at -20°C, and verified by SDS-PAGE. The verification results were as follows: Figures 1 to 6 shown.
