Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of genetic engineering technology, and in particular to a 2-keto-inositol isomerase mutant and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] D-chiro-inositol (DCI) is one of the nine isomers of inositol, naturally found in certain plants, buckwheat, legumes, and human cells. As a precursor to the insulin signaling pathway's "second messenger," it helps improve insulin sensitivity and has therefore been extensively studied for its role in improving ovulation, androgen levels, and glucose metabolism in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Furthermore, DCI possesses potential benefits such as antioxidant activity and reduction of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), and is being explored for use in individuals with metabolic syndrome, prediabetes, and mild hyperglycemia.

[0003] In existing technologies, the reaction of muscle inositol to D-chiral inositol can be catalyzed by using inositol dehydrogenase and 2-keto-inositol isomerase in combination. However, the yield of D-chiral inositol is low due to the influence of the enzyme activity and heat resistance of 2-keto-inositol isomerase. Summary of the Invention

[0012] Thirdly, the present invention provides an expression vector containing the above-mentioned nucleic acid molecules.

[0013] Fourthly, the present invention provides a recombinant strain containing the aforementioned nucleic acid molecule or expression vector.

[0014] Fifthly, the present invention provides a method for preparing a 2-keto-inositol isomerase mutant, which is used to prepare the above-mentioned 2-keto-inositol isomerase mutant, comprising the following steps: The above recombinant strains were cultured in a culture medium at 35-40℃ and 120-220rpm for 12-16h to obtain seed liquid.

[0015] In a sixth aspect, the present invention provides the application of the above-mentioned 2-keto-inositol isomerase mutant, nucleic acid molecule, expression vector or recombinant strain in the preparation of D-chiral inositol.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the 2-keto-inositol isomerase mutant of the present invention has higher enzyme activity and thermal stability, and a longer half-life. Therefore, when combined with inositol dehydrogenase to prepare D-chiral inositol, it can effectively increase the yield of D-chiral inositol.
