Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a hexokinase mutant with high thermal stability and a preparation and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous improvement of living standards, the number of people with diabetes has increased sharply, and higher and higher requirements have been put forward for the daily monitoring and early diagnosis of diabetes. Blood sugar levels are usually reflected by quantitative detection of glucose in serum or plasma, and the realization of in vitro detection requires a reaction catalyzed by hexokinase to achieve accurate quantification.

[0003] Hexokinase (HXK) is ubiquitous in organisms and is a key enzyme in energy metabolism. It is a transferase with strong affinity, which specifically catalyzes the reaction of hexose and ATP to produce glucose-6-phosphate and ADP, thereby realizing energy transfer. This characteristic can be used to develop glucose detection kits. Most of the hexokinases used on the market are derived from natural extraction or recombinant expression of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Natural extraction has low yield, high purification difficulty, and difficult industrial application. Recombinant expression can achieve large-scale preparation, but the stability of the enzyme itself has become an important factor restricting its industrial application. Some manufacturers optimize the kit and add a large amount of surfactants to slow down the attenuation of enzyme activity, but the added raw materials greatly increase the reagent cost and cannot fundamentally solve the problem of stability. Therefore, it is very promising to obtain hexokinase with improved stability to achieve large-scale application on the reagent side. Summary of the invention
