Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of biopharmaceuticals and biotransformation, and particularly relates to a nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase mutant, a mutant coding gene, a recombinant vector containing the mutant coding gene, a recombinant genetically engineered bacterium containing the mutant coding gene, and application of the nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase mutant in biocatalytic synthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. BACKGROUND

[0002] NAD + (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is an important coenzyme in cells, which is essential for regulating cell aging and maintaining normal body functions. In addition, NAD + and its metabolism directly or indirectly affect many aging-related diseases such as neurodegeneration, cancer, etc., and have wide application value. In industrial production, NAD + is used for industrial NAD + dependent enzyme catalysis, and NAD + dependent enzymes have wide applications in industry, which are used to synthesize various important chemicals, drugs and food additives, etc. For example, NAD + dependent amino acid dehydrogenase can catalyze the synthesis of chiral amino acids, and NAD + can also be used for the synthesis of some high-value chemicals, such as chiral drugs, vitamins, natural products, etc. In these applications, NAD + significantly improves the selectivity and yield of the reaction through efficient catalysis, and reduces environmental pollution, which meets the principles of green chemistry. However, due to the high consumption of NAD + in catalytic reactions, especially in large-scale production, its high cost limits its wide application. Therefore, how to effectively produce NAD + on a large scale has become a focus of current research.

[0003] At present, various chemical synthesis methods of NAD + have been reported, but the chemical synthesis of NAD + has the disadvantages of long reaction time, low yield, complex separation and purification steps, and large pollution of chemical reagents used in the synthesis process. In contrast, the synthesis of NAD + by biological method using NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) as substrate can overcome the limitations of the above chemical method, and is an efficient, low-cost and environmentally friendly production method.

[0004] The synthesis of NAD + by biological method using NMN as substrate has many advantages:

[0005] 1、NMN is a direct precursor of NAD + , which can more efficiently synthesize NAD + by providing the nucleotide component required for NAD + . This advantage makes the biological synthesis of NAD + more advantageous than chemical synthesis method, which can significantly improve the synthesis efficiency and simplify the reaction process. Using NMN as a substrate to synthesize NAD + , the multi-step synthesis and complex separation and purification steps required in chemical method can be reduced, and high consumption of chemical reagents can be avoided;

[0006] 2、In recent years, the chemical synthesis technology of NMN has made important breakthroughs, and the production efficiency has been greatly improved, and the cost has been significantly reduced. This progress has greatly reduced the price of NMN, further promoting its application in industrial production. With the decline of NMN synthesis cost, the economic benefits of NAD + synthesis by NMN have been greatly improved, providing a good foundation for large-scale production;

[0007] 3、The enzyme method for synthesizing NAD + has simple reaction and less by-products;

[0008] 4、Biological enzyme catalytic reaction has the advantages of high efficiency, fast reaction rate and high conversion rate. Biological enzymes show high specificity and reaction speed in catalytic process, which can complete the synthesis of NAD + in a short time.

[0009] When using enzyme method to synthesize NAD + , although this method shows potential in production, it still faces some challenges. One of them is that the activity of the enzyme has not reached the level required for industrialization, which limits its efficiency in large-scale production, and the economic benefits are limited, therefore, the activity of the enzyme needs to be further improved to ensure that it can meet the demand of industrialization level and achieve higher economic benefits.
