Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering and relates to an enzyme mutant with high thermal stability transformed based on deep learning. Background Art

[0002] Protein engineering is widely used in enzyme modification, primarily through gene modification to alter protein structure to achieve improvements in catalytic efficiency, thermal stability, and substrate specificity. Key approaches include directed evolution, rational design, and semi-rational design. Numerous examples of directed evolution have demonstrated that large-scale screening of random mutations at arbitrary positions within an enzyme using high-throughput screening methods can generate desired mutants. However, due to the size of proteins and the time-consuming nature of screening, directed evolution using error-prone PCR as the primary method is often relatively inefficient. Therefore, computational approaches are needed to rationally or semi-rationally design protein engineering. Artificial intelligence methods such as machine learning and deep learning, which are applied to protein engineering, have demonstrated unique advantages in predicting enzyme structure, addressing stability, selectivity, and catalytic activity, and guiding enzyme design. These methods offer new possibilities for enzyme design and significantly improve experimental efficiency.

[0003] The nitrilase superfamily can be divided into 13 branches based on sequence similarity and structural domain classification. However, only one branch of the nitrilase superfamily possesses the ability to convert nitriles, while the others preferentially exhibit amide hydrolysis or condensation properties. Most superfamily members share a common α-β-β-α structural fold and a Cys-Glu-Lys catalytic site. Nitrilases (EC3.5.5) are enzymes in the nitrilase superfamily that catalyze the conversion of a range of nitriles to the corresponding carboxylic acids in a single step, releasing ammonia. Nitrilase-mediated biocatalytic reactions have the advantages of being environmentally mild, environmentally friendly, and devoid of byproducts, with excellent regioselectivity, chemoselectivity, and stereoselectivity. Compared to traditional chemical pathways that require harsh acid-base reaction conditions and produce undesirable byproducts, nitrilase is a promising alternative to traditional chemical pathways in fine chemical production. Nitrilases have been used to catalyze the production of valuable fine chemicals such as nicotinic acid, (R)-mandelic acid, acrylic acid, glycolic acid, 1,5-dimethyl-2-piperidone, atorvastatin, gabapentin, (R)-baclofen, and (S)-pregabalin.
