Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of synthetic biotechnology, and particularly relates to a method for polyphosphate-driven high-temperature resistant multi-enzyme catalytic synthesis of D-allulose. Background Art

[0002] D-allulose is a novel functional monosaccharide with a sweetness about 70% of sucrose, but a calorific value only 0.5% of sucrose. In nature, D-allulose exists in trace amounts in some plants such as Itea virginica and wheat, etc., but it is very difficult to obtain. It has now been found that D-allulose has a variety of important physiological functions, such as effectively inhibiting blood sugar elevation, improving blood lipid metabolism, alleviating diabetes symptoms and reducing the risk of type II diabetes. Given the great application prospects of D-allulose in the food and pharmaceutical fields, developing a method for efficient production of D-allulose will be an important task for the intensive processing of the sugar industry and an inevitable requirement to meet market growth.

[0003] Previously, many scholars have tried various ways, as well as strategies such as the exploration and transformation of pathway enzyme systems and the regulation of metabolic pathways to promote the research progress of D-allulose biosynthesis. For example, the equilibrium conversion rate of D-fructose catalyzed by D-allulose 3-epimerase (DPEase) to synthesize D-allulose is 20-30%; the equilibrium conversion rate of the dual-enzyme system combining the cheaper substrate D-glucose and glucose isomerase GI is only 12%-16%; the two-step method dominated by L-rhamnose kinase phosphorylates D-allulose to D-allulose-1-phosphate and then converts it to D-allulose by in vitro dephosphorylation. Although this method improves the catalytic equilibrium conversion rate, the two-step method makes its actual application more cumbersome and it is difficult to promote industrial application. Therefore, a method for producing D-allulose with a high-temperature resistant multi-enzyme system needs to be developed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: aiming at the deficiencies existing in the prior art, to provide a method for polyphosphate-driven high-temperature resistant multi-enzyme catalytic synthesis of D-allulose, by which low-cost and high-efficiency synthesis of D-allulose can be achieved.

[0005] To solve the above technical problem, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0006] The method for synthesizing D-allulose by multi-enzyme catalysis driven by polyphosphate at high temperature according to the present invention is prepared by using D-glucose as a substrate and performing an in vitro multi-enzyme one-pot reaction. The multi-enzyme system is constructed by preparing crude enzymes from recombinant Escherichia coli; the recombinant Escherichia coli overexpresses polyphosphate glucokinase PPGK, 6-phosphoglucose isomerase PGI, D-allulose-6-phosphate-3-epimerase A6PE, and D-allulose-6-phosphate phosphatase A6PP respectively.

[0007] The in vitro multi-enzyme one-pot reaction is carried out according to the following operations: the pH is 6 - 8.5, the reaction temperature is 37 - 55 °C, the reaction time is 1 - 9 h, the addition ratio of the four enzymes PPGK, PGI, A6PE, and A6PP in the multi-enzyme system is added at a ratio of 1:1:(1 - 6):1, and polyphosphate and metal ions are added during the reaction.

[0008] The multi-enzyme system is constructed by immobilizing the crude enzymes prepared from recombinant Escherichia coli.

[0009] The immobilized enzyme is prepared by the chitosan-glutaraldehyde cross-linking method according to the following operations: the glutaraldehyde concentration is 20 - 40 g / L, the chitosan concentration is 0.06 - 0.08 g / mL, the cross-linking temperature is 30 - 45 °C, and the immobilization temperature is 10 - 20 °C.

[0010] The addition amount of the polyphosphate is 15 - 20 mM.

[0011] The recombinant Escherichia coli is constructed as follows: The polyphosphate glucokinase PPGK derived from Thermobifida fusca YX is inserted between the BamHⅠ and SalⅠ restriction sites of the vector pCDFDuet-1 to obtain the recombinant plasmid pCDFDuet-PPGK; The glucose-6-phosphate isomerase PGI derived from Thermus thermophilus is inserted between the Hind Ⅲ and BamHⅠ restriction sites of the pET-32a(+) vector to obtain the recombinant plasmid pET-32a(+)-PGI; The D-psicose-6-phosphate 3-epimerase A6PE derived from Clostridium thermosaccharolyticum and the D-psicose-6-phosphate phosphatase A6PP derived from Clostridium thermocellum are respectively inserted between the Hind Ⅲ and BamHⅠ and the Hind Ⅲ and EcoRⅤ restriction sites of the pRSFDuet-1 vector to obtain the recombinant plasmids pRSFDuet-A6PE and pRSFDuet-A6PP; The recombinant plasmids pCDFDuet-PPGK, pET-32a(+)-PGI, pRSFDuet-A6PE and pRSFDuet-A6PP are respectively transformed into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) to obtain the recombinant Escherichia coli.

[0012] The metal ion is Mg 2+ , Co 2+ , Ni 2+ , Mn 2+ added in one or more combinations.

[0013] The substrate concentration of the in vitro multi-enzyme one-pot reaction is 25 - 100 g / L, and the metal ion addition amount is 5 mM.

[0014] The preparation method of the crude enzyme is as follows: The wet cells of the recombinant Escherichia coli are diluted with 1×PBS to OD 600 5 - 10, the ultrasonic power is 180 W, working for 2 s, pausing for 3 s, and the total ultrasonic time is 10 min, and the crude enzyme solution is collected by centrifugation.

[0015] The preparation method of the wet cells of the recombinant Escherichia coli is as follows: The recombinant Escherichia coli is inoculated into the LB medium for culture, induced with IPTG at 18 - 20 °C for 16 - 20 h, and the wet cells are collected.

[0016] The inoculation amount of inoculating the recombinant Escherichia coli into the LB medium is: 1%.

[0017] The LB medium is prepared according to the following components: 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 g / L peptone, and 10 g / L sodium chloride.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0019] When constructing recombinant Escherichia coli, the present invention introduces a new enzyme system for synthesizing D-allulose through the glycolytic pathway, polyphosphate glucokinase (PPGK). In the catalytic synthesis without exogenous addition of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the space-time yield of D-allulose can reach up to 4.57 g / L / h at most.

[0020] In the system for synthesizing D-allulose of the present invention, polyphosphate is used as the enzyme power supply. Compared with adenosine triphosphate (ATP), polyphosphate has low cost and stable properties, can effectively reduce the preparation cost, and simplify the process.

[0021] All the multi-enzyme systems in the present invention are heat-resistant enzymes, which are suitable for relatively high reaction temperatures, are beneficial to product synthesis, and can effectively inhibit the action of heteroproteins.

[0022] In the present invention, a multi-enzyme immobilization operation obtains an immobilized enzyme system with good repeatability. After being continuously used 5 times in the catalytic synthesis of D-allulose, it can still retain 70% of the decay activity.

[0023] The present invention uses D-glucose as a substrate to convert and synthesize D-allulose. D-glucose is easily obtained in nature and has low cost, can effectively reduce the preparation cost, and is suitable for industrial production. Description of the Drawings

[0027] The following is further illustrated by specific examples. Unless otherwise specified, the technical means used in the examples are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art.

[0028] The raw materials and reagents used in the embodiments of the present invention are all conventional chemical reagents, and can all be obtained through commercial channels. The LB medium is prepared according to the following components: 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 g / L peptone, and 10 g / L sodium chloride.

[0029] Examples 1 - 32 adopted the method of the present invention. Examples 1 - 18 were preparation examples of the method without using immobilized enzymes, and Examples 19 - 32 were preparation examples of the reaction using immobilized enzymes. Among them, Example 32 used an immobilized enzyme system that had continuously catalyzed the synthesis of D - allulose 5 times for the reaction. Comparative Example 1 did not adopt the in vitro multi - enzyme one - pot method of the present invention, but used whole - cell catalysis reaction.

[0030] Figure 1 This is the process flow chart of the present invention. The optimal solution of the present invention is specifically as Figure 1 shown. Recombinant Escherichia coli was used to prepare crude enzymes respectively, then the enzymes were immobilized, and then the in vitro multi - enzyme one - pot method was adopted. After multiple experiments by the applicant, directly using the crude enzymes for the in vitro multi - enzyme one - pot method after preparing the crude enzymes also had significantly higher effects than the whole - cell catalysis reaction.

It can be seen from Table 2 that the yield of the 6th catalytic synthesis was 3.199 g / L / h, and the yield of the first catalytic synthesis was 4.570 g / L / h (Example 31), and the calculated decay activity was 70%.

[0135] From the data in Table 1 and Table 2, it can be found that in the present invention, D-glucose is used as a substrate, and D-allulose is prepared through the construction of recombinant Escherichia coli, the preparation of wet bacterial cells, the preparation of crude enzyme, immobilized enzyme, and in vitro multi-enzyme one-pot reaction. Compared with the prior art, under the same substrate concentration, metal ion concentration, cofactor addition amount, and optimal pH conditions, the space-time yield of D-allulose can be greatly improved. In the in vitro multi-enzyme one-pot catalytic reaction of the free enzyme system, the space-time yield at 50 °C for 3 h is 3.526 g / L / h; in the in vitro multi-enzyme one-pot catalytic reaction of the immobilized enzyme system, the space-time yield at 55 °C for 3 h is 4.570 g / L / h. The space-time yield of the process technology of the present invention is higher than that of the comparative example of D-allulose, which is 0.937 g / L / h.

[0136] Moreover, the relatively high reaction temperature of the in vitro multi-enzyme one-pot catalytic reaction is beneficial to the forward progress of the catalytic reaction. The cofactor uses polyphosphate, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is not added externally, which saves costs. The immobilized enzyme technology has high repeatability and can maintain 70% of the decay activity after 5 consecutive reactions, and is suitable for industrial applications.

[0137] The above are only the preferred examples of the present invention and do not limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
