Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of enzymatic catalytic synthesis technology, specifically to a lysine decarboxylase mutant and its application in the synthesis of 1,5-pentanediamine. Background Technology

[0002] 1,5-Pentanediamine, also known as cadaverine, can be used as a precursor for polymer synthesis to replace traditional petroleum-based hexamethylenediamine. It can be used to prepare novel bio-based polyamides by polycondensation with various diacids. The novel bio-based polyamide materials have excellent chemical corrosion resistance, heat resistance and mechanical strength, and show great application potential in industrial fields such as packaging, medical devices and home appliances.

[0003] Currently, the biosynthetic pathways of 1,5-pentanediamine are mainly divided into two categories: microbial fermentation and enzymatic catalysis. While microbial fermentation can achieve de novo synthesis, the product 1,5-pentanediamine is toxic to host cells. Enzymatic catalysis, on the other hand, constructs an in vitro reaction system to efficiently convert the substrate L-lysine to 1,5-pentanediamine under specific catalytic conditions. This method is not only simple and easy to control, but also avoids the toxicity of the product to cells.

[0004] Lysine decarboxylase (LDC) is a specific enzyme that catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-lysine to 1,5-pentanediamine. Current research on this enzyme largely focuses on sources such as *Escherichia coli*, *Klebsiella pneumoniae*, and *Haffniella vesicae*. However, these lysine decarboxylases generally suffer from low catalytic activity and poor structural stability in practical applications. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore novel lysine decarboxylase resources from different bacterial strains and combine them with enzyme engineering techniques to improve their catalytic activity and structural stability, thereby promoting their industrial application. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a lysine decarboxylase mutant and its application in the synthesis of 1,5-pentanediamine, in order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

The amino acid sequence of lysine decarboxylase AfLDC is shown in SEQ ID NO: 5. The lysine decarboxylase mutant is obtained by mutating threonine at position 88 of lysine decarboxylase AfLDC to serine, i.e., T88S.

[0008] A third aspect of the present invention provides a recombinant vector for constructing the encoding gene of the above-mentioned lysine decarboxylase mutant.

[0009] The fourth aspect of the present invention provides recombinant genetically engineered bacteria obtained by transformation of the above-mentioned recombinant vector.

[0010] The fifth aspect of the present invention provides an immobilized enzyme prepared from the above-mentioned lysine decarboxylase mutant.

[0011] Further, the immobilized enzyme is prepared by the following steps: using 50-200mM phosphate buffer, pH 6.0-8.0 as a solvent, the lysine decarboxylase mutant and amino resin are added, the mass ratio of the lysine decarboxylase mutant to the amino resin is 20-200mg:1g, the amino resin includes LX-1000NH amino resin or ESR-1 amino resin, and 1v / v%-5v / v% glutaraldehyde and 1v / v%-5v / v% polyethyleneimine are added. The immobilization temperature is 4-10℃, the stirring speed is 20-100rpm, the immobilization time is 2-5h, and the enzyme is filtered and washed to obtain the immobilized enzyme.

[0012] The sixth aspect of the present invention provides the application of the above-mentioned lysine decarboxylase mutant in the synthesis of 1,5-pentanediamine. In the application, the lysine decarboxylase mutant is used as a catalyst, L-lysine is used as a substrate, pyridoxal 5-phosphate is used as a coenzyme, and the enzyme catalysis to generate 1,5-pentanediamine is carried out in a reaction medium under controlled temperature and stirring speed conditions.

[0013] Furthermore, the reaction medium is an aqueous solution with pH 5.0-9.0, the amount of lysine decarboxylase mutant is 20-200 mg / L, the concentration of L-lysine is 0.5-2.0 M, the concentration of pyridoxal 5-phosphate is 0.05-0.5 mM, the temperature is controlled at 40-60℃, the stirring speed is 70-300 rpm, and the reaction time is 1-4 h.

[0014] The seventh aspect of the present invention provides the application of the above-mentioned immobilized enzyme in the synthesis of 1,5-pentanediamine. In the application, the immobilized enzyme is used as a catalyst, L-lysine is used as a substrate, pyridoxal 5-phosphate is used as a coenzyme, and the enzyme catalysis to generate 1,5-pentanediamine is carried out in a reaction medium under controlled temperature and stirring speed conditions.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention screened out a lysine decarboxylase mutant, AfLDC_T88S, by site-directed mutagenesis of lysine decarboxylases from different sources. The mutant exhibited high catalytic activity (enzyme activity reaching 2513.7 U / mg, approximately 3 times higher than that of wild-type lysine decarboxylase AfLDC), a wider pH tolerance range (relative enzyme activity maintained above 75% in pH 5.0-9.0), and good thermal stability (relative enzyme activity maintained at 80% after treatment at 60℃ for 150 h). This mutant was successfully used to catalyze the synthesis of 1,5-pentanediamine from L-lysine, demonstrating promising prospects for industrial application.

[0017] This invention utilizes the immobilized lysine decarboxylase mutant AfLDC_T88S as a catalyst and L-lysine as a substrate to synthesize 1,5-pentanediamine via enzymatic catalysis under appropriate conditions and reaction medium, achieving a conversion rate of 99.4%. The immobilized lysine decarboxylase mutant AfLDC_T88S retains 77% of its relative enzyme activity even after 50 cycles, enabling enzyme reuse and reducing industrial production costs.

At the end of the reaction, 3 mL of 37 wt% concentrated hydrochloric acid was added to quench the reaction. The amount of 1,5-pentanediamine generated was detected by HPLC according to the method described in Example 5.

[0052] The enzyme activity test results of lysine decarboxylase and its mutants are shown in Table 2. Under the condition of pH 7.2, the lysine decarboxylase mutants constructed in Example 2 have higher enzyme activities than wild-type lysine decarboxylase. Among them, the enzyme activity of lysine decarboxylase mutant AfLDC_T88S reached 2513.7 U / mg, which is about 3 times higher than the enzyme activity of wild-type lysine decarboxylase AfLDC.

After standing at 4°C for 10 h, measure the enzyme activity under the same reaction conditions according to the enzyme activity determination method in Example 6, and calculate the relative enzyme activity of lysine decarboxylase and its mutant after different pH treatments (with the enzyme activity of each enzyme and each mutant measured in Example 6 at pH 7.2 as 100%).

[0055] The results are as follows Figures 1-3 As shown, the pH stability of the various lysine decarboxylase mutants was significantly improved compared to the wild-type lysine decarboxylase. Among them, the lysine decarboxylase mutants AfLDC_T88S and RtLDC_R116C / Q141C maintained a relative enzyme activity of over 75% in the pH range of 5.0-9.0.

[0056] Example 8: Determination of the thermal stability of lysine decarboxylase and its mutants Two mL of either the 5 mg / mL lysine decarboxylase enzyme solution or the lysine decarboxylase mutant enzyme solution obtained in Example 4 were placed in a 60°C constant temperature water bath and incubated for 25 h, 50 h, 75 h, 100 h, 125 h, and 150 h, respectively. After incubation, the heat-treated samples were immediately transferred to an ice-water mixture to terminate the heat effect. Following the enzyme activity assay method in Example 6, enzyme activity was measured under the same reaction conditions, and the relative enzyme activities of lysine decarboxylase and its mutants after heat treatment at different times were calculated (with the enzyme activity of each enzyme and mutant at 0 h as 100%).
