Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, specifically relating to a horse-derived acylase mutant and its application in the synthesis of lauroylglycine. Background Technology
[0002] Amino acid surfactants are not only widely available from biomass raw materials, but also have advantages such as low toxicity and side effects, mild performance, low irritation, and good foaming properties. They often have good surface activity, health and safety, and strong antibacterial ability, which has attracted much attention and led to their gradual application in many fields such as detergents, personal care, and the food industry.
[0003] N-acyl amino acid surfactants are the most common type of amino acid surfactants. Common examples include sodium lauroyl glycinate, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, sodium lauroyl glutamate, potassium lauroyl glutamate, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sodium cocoyl glycinate, and potassium cocoyl glycinate. Their synthetic raw materials come from various acidic, basic, or neutral amino acids such as aspartic acid, glutamic acid, arginine, alanine, glycine, leucine, proline, serine, and protein hydrolysis products. Hydrophobic groups such as fatty acids or alkyl chlorides can be attached to the amino group, α-COOH group, or side chain group of the amino acid. If fatty acids or alkyl halides react with the amino group, corresponding N-acyl or N-alkyl amino acid derivatives are produced; if fatty amines or fatty alcohols condense with the carboxyl group, N-alkyl or O-alkyl ester amino acid derivatives are obtained. Different reaction methods yield different products; therefore, amino acid surfactants exhibit diversity in chemical structure and physicochemical and biological properties.
[0004] The synthesis methods of N-acyl amino acid surfactants are divided into direct and indirect methods. Indirect synthesis methods include acylation of fatty acid acyl chlorides, hydrolytic acylation of fatty acid nitriles, acylation of fatty acid anhydrides, and amide carbonylation reactions. Among these, the Schotten-Baumann condensation method, in which fatty acid acyl chlorides replace fatty acids in alkaline solutions, is currently the most widely used synthesis method in laboratories and industry. It has advantages such as relatively low equipment requirements, inexpensive and readily available raw materials, mild reaction conditions, and easy handling of byproducts. However, because it involves the use of phosgene to convert free fatty acids into the corresponding acyl chlorides during production, although this method produces high amide yields, it requires the use of stoichiometric amounts of harmful activating reagents and generates a large amount of waste, resulting in low atom economy. Direct synthesis methods from fatty acid raw materials include enzyme-catalyzed synthesis and dehydration condensation. Lipase-catalyzed synthesis is limited by low conversion rates, long reaction times, and expensive enzyme preparations; while dehydration condensation is limited by harsh reaction conditions, high equipment requirements, and high energy consumption, and its improvement is needed. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop one or a series of novel synthetic schemes for N-acyl amino acid surfactants, providing a more convenient and efficient new route for laboratory / industrial production of N-acyl amino acid surfactants.
[0005] Aminoacylase I (ACY1) thus came into the public eye. ACY1 can specifically hydrolyze N-acyl-L-amino acids to generate L-amino acids without affecting their enantiomers, N-acyl-D-amino acids. Its physiological functions are believed to include rescuing post-metabolite amino acids and inhibiting cancer cell growth. Industrially, it is commonly used for amino acid resolution. Because it can also catalyze the formation of N-acyl amino acids in non-aqueous phases, it plays an important role in biosynthesis and metabolism. The mechanism for synthesizing lauroylglycine using it is as follows:
[0006]
[0007] However, despite the catalytic advantages of ACY1 for the above synthetic reactions, it is often limited by problems such as product hydrolysis, low enzyme catalytic efficiency, low enzyme stability leading to unsustainable reactions, or difficulty in recovery, resulting in low synthetic yields. Consequently, research on this type of reaction remains scarce. Currently, a major source of industrial ACY1 is extracted from pig kidneys. Although some studies have found that ACY1 from sheep, humans, and dogs has certain catalytic effects on acylation reactions, related research reports are still few, inevitably leading to the disadvantages of limited ACY1 sources and low abundance. Therefore, by performing BLAST on ACY1 sequences from humans and pigs and systematically checking sequence similarity, horse-derived ACY1 with high similarity was selected for research. The aim is to introduce mutation sites to give it certain catalytic efficiency, based on its acylation function from human and pig ACY1, thus providing a new direction for the ACY1 catalytic synthesis pathway of lauroylglycine.

Detailed Implementation
[0029] The embodiments are described in more detail below, but the present invention is not limited to any of the embodiments described below. It should be noted that the so-called mutation site in the following embodiments refers to the position in the amino acid sequence that differs from that of the equine mutant acylase containing the amino acid sequence with sequence number 1.
[0030] Comparative Example 1
[0031] Based on the horse acylase sequence obtained from previous experiments, the gene pAcy was synthesized. Its amino acid sequence is shown in Sequence 1, and its nucleic acid sequence of the cDNA coding region is shown in Sequence 2.
[0032] After artificially synthesizing the wild-type acylase cDNA coding region, this gene was used as a template, and primer pair sequences 3 and 4 were used to amplify the fragment by PCR, introducing NdeI and XhoI endonuclease sites on both sides of the fragment. PCR reaction system: Takara Max DNA Polymerase 25 μL, ddH2O 20 μL, primer 3 (Sequence 3) 1.5 μL, primer 4 (Sequence 4) 1.5 μL, template 2 (Sequence 2) 2 μL. PCR reaction program: 98℃ pre-denaturation for 2 min, followed by 25 cycles of 98℃ denaturation for 10 s, 58℃ annealing for 15 s, and 72℃ extension for 10 s, with a final extension at 72℃ for 5 min.
[0033] Analysis of the PCR products using 1% agarose gel electrophoresis confirmed the presence of an amplification product of approximately 1.2 kb.
[0034] Only a DNA fragment of about 1.2kb was excised from the agarose gel. The DNA in the gel was purified and recovered using the Tiangen ordinary agarose gel DNA recovery kit. The purified product was double-digested with restriction enzymes NdeI and XhoI. After confirming that the band size was about 1.2kb by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, the DNA was purified and recovered again to obtain the gene digested fragment.
[0035] Similarly, the E. coli expression vector pET-28a(+) was digested using restriction enzymes NdeⅠ and XhoⅠ, and a DNA fragment of about 5.3 kb was excised from the agarose gel by agarose gel electrophoresis. After purification and recovery, the vector digested fragment was obtained.
[0036] The approximately 1.2 kb and 5.3 kb restriction fragments obtained above were ligated using T4 DNA ligase and then transformed into *E. coli* BL21(DE3) to obtain transformant (1). A plasmid was prepared from the bacterial cells using the Tiangen plasmid miniprep kit to obtain the recombinant plasmid pET-28a(+)-Acy. DNA sequencing confirmed that the coding region nucleotide sequence of this plasmid was identical to sequence 2. Transformant (1) produced acylase (1), a mutant acylase derived from horse.
[0037] The recombinant *E. coli* BL21(DE3) / pAcy-pET-28a(+) obtained above was inoculated into LB liquid medium containing 50 μg / ml kanamycin resistance and cultured at 37°C and 200 rpm for 12 h. Then, it was inoculated at 1% (v / v) into fresh LB liquid medium containing 50 μg / ml kanamycin resistance and cultured at 37°C and 200 rpm until the bacterial OD600 reached 0.6-0.8. IPTG was added to a final concentration of 0.1 mM, and the culture was induced at 20°C and 200 rpm for 15 h. After centrifugation at 4°C and 8000 rpm for 20 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the precipitate was collected to obtain wet bacterial cells containing the recombinant plasmid expressing *E. coli* BL21(DE3) / pAcy-pET-28a(+). These bacterial cells can be directly used as a biocatalyst.
[0038] The wet bacterial cells obtained above were used to determine the synthetic activity of lauroylglycine. The synthetic reaction system (10 mL) consisted of 360 mg lauric acid, 10 mL saturated glycine solution, and 0.2 g wet bacterial cells. The reaction was allowed to proceed for 14 h.
[0039] Reaction conditions: temperature 35-65℃, pH 5.5-8.5.
[0040] Analytical conditions: Column: C18, 4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm; Detection wavelength: UV = 200 nm; Mobile phase: 85% acetonitrile and 15% 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid aqueous solution; Column temperature: 30 ℃; Flow rate: 1 mL / min; Detection time: 15 min.
[0041] Comparative Example 2
[0042] Candidate modification sites are introduced through sequence conservation analysis and random mutation. Since the mutation risk of low-conservation sites is unknown, it is not possible to stack sites one by one. Therefore, it is necessary to first screen for single-point transformation rates, eliminate low-transformation-rate sites, retain high-transformation-rate advantageous mutation sites, and then combine and stack them, introducing new mutation sites during the stacking process, and conducting multiple rounds of evolutionary screening.
[0043] After artificially synthesizing the recombinant plasmid pET-28a(+)-Acy, this plasmid was used as a template, and primer pair sequence 5 was used to amplify the fragment by PCR to introduce the mutation site required for transformant (2). PCR reaction system: Takara Max DNA Polymerase 25 μL, ddH2O 20 μL, primer F 1.5 μL, primer R 1.5 μL, pET-28a(+)-Acy template 2 μL. PCR reaction program: 98℃ pre-denaturation for 2 min, followed by 25 cycles of 98℃ denaturation for 10 s, 58℃ annealing for 15 s, and 72℃ extension for 40 s, with a final extension at 72℃ for 5 min.
[0044] Analysis of the PCR products using 1% agarose gel electrophoresis confirmed the presence of an amplification product of approximately 6.5 kb.
[0045] Only about 6.5kb of DNA was excised from the agarose gel. The DNA in the gel was purified and recovered using the Tiangen General Agarose Gel DNA Recovery Kit.
[0046] Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) was transformed to obtain transformant (2). Transformant (2) produced mutant (2) as a dominant mutant acylase derived from horses.
[0047] Transformant (2) produces acylase (2) with mutations based on Comparative Example 1 as described in the table, and its culture and activity assay are the same as those of Comparative Example 1.

[0063] Table 1
[0064]
[0065] For superimposed point mutations, a relative conversion efficiency of >1.5 compared to the wild type is defined as a significant increase, 1.2–1.5 as an increase, 1–1.2 as a slight increase, 0.8–1 as a slight decrease, 0.5–0.8 as a decrease, and <0.5 as a drastic decrease. Table 1 shows that the mutation at amino acid position 24 of Comparative Example 2, resulting in a Y amino acid mutation, drastically decreased the conversion efficiency, demonstrating that not all low-conservation sites can be used for conversion efficiency enhancement. This site is detrimental to evolution and was therefore eliminated. Mutations T181N and S224G showed increases, while S292A, E40K, and A102C showed slight increases; these mutations can be considered advantageous sites for conversion efficiency enhancement.
