[0022] It should be noted that, unless contradictory, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of this application may be combined with one another. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail by combining the embodiments.
[0023] As mentioned in the background art, all prior art methods for synthesizing purine nucleosides have problems such as high cost, long consumption time, and low yield, and are disadvantageous for the manufacture and subsequent utilization of purine nucleosides and their analogs. Accordingly, the inventors of this application catalyze uridine substrates and substrate bases with pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase, and catalyze through a one-step method to produce purine nucleosides. In this reaction, due to the characteristics of the substrates and bases, the reaction time is short and the synthesis efficiency is high, so the product obtained has a high yield and can be produced on a large scale for industrial production. Based on this, the present application has provided the technical solution that it seeks to protect.
[0024] In the first typical embodiment of the present application, a method for producing a purine nucleoside is provided, said method comprising the step of producing a purine nucleoside by catalyzing a uridine substrate and a substrate base with pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase and a purine nucleoside phosphorylase; wherein the uridine substrate is a nucleoside represented by formula I, and R comprises -OH, -H or -NH2, correspondingly, that is, the uridine substrate is uridine, 2'-deoxyuridine or 2'-amino-2'-deoxyuridine;
[0025]
[0026] The substrate base includes a purine compound represented by Formula II, R1 includes -NH2, -OCH3 or -Cl, and R2 includes -NH2, -F or -Cl.
[0027]
[0028] Nucleoside phosphorylase catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of glycosidic bonds of nucleosides or deoxynucleosides to release a base and produce ribose-1-phosphate or deoxyribose-1-phosphate, and if other bases are present, binds to them to form new nucleosides. This application describes a method using pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase via an enzyme-catalyzed method to convert uridine, 2'-deoxyuridine, and 2'-amino-2'-deoxyuridine into various purine nucleosides, requiring only a single-step reaction. Compared to the problems associated with conventional chemical synthesis methods, such as multiple steps and environmental pollution, the manufacturing method of this application is simple, low-cost, and environmentally friendly. It allows for the synthesis of purine nucleosides through a single-step reaction, features a short reaction time and high synthesis efficiency, and holds significant meaning and favorable application prospects for the industrial synthetic production of nucleoside analogs.
[0029] The pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase used in this application is E. coli ( Escherichia coli It is a protein derived from ) and represented by SEQ ID NO. 1, and such pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase is named TP; or Geobacillus stearothermophilus ( Geobacillus stearothermophilus It is a protein derived from ) and represented by SEQ ID No. 2, and such pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase is named PyNP. Purine nucleoside phosphorylase is Geobacillus thermoglucosidius ( Geobacillus thermoglucosidasius It is a protein derived from ) and represented by SEQ ID No. 3, and such a purine nucleoside phosphorylase is named PNP. The reaction schematic of the above manufacturing method is as shown in FIG. 1.
[0030] In the above enzyme catalytic method, reaction A of FIG. 1 is performed under the catalyst of TP or PyNP, cleaving the CN bond between the pyrimidine group and the ribose group of the substrate nucleoside and attaching a phosphate group to the nucleoside group to form a phosphate ribose intermediate. The phosphate ribose intermediate then performs reaction B of FIG. 1 under the action of PNP, causing the C-1 atom of the ribose group and the N-9 atom of the purine substrate base to form a CN bond, thereby producing a purine nucleoside compound. In reactions A and B, there is no need to add additional coenzymes such as NADPH, and the reaction can be completed using only the substrate and protein, making the reaction simple. Furthermore, since it does not need to be performed in living cells, the reaction cost is significantly reduced and efficiency is greatly improved. The above enzyme catalytic method, performed with this combination of two proteins, can complete the catalytic reaction within a short catalytic time, has a high substrate conversion rate, is suitable for amplification reactions, and enables large-scale industrial production.
[0031] Prior art discloses the catalyzing of similar reactions using similar pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylases and purine nucleoside phosphorylases to generate new nucleosides using nucleosides and bases as substrates. However, in the field of enzyme catalysis, substrates of different structures significantly affect enzyme catalytic efficiency, and different substituents on substrates generally have a significant impact on the spatial structure and chemical properties of the substrates. It is difficult to obtain insights from the prior art regarding which method should be used to implement similar reactions for different types of substrates, and it is more difficult to predict the effects resulting from catalyzing with different enzymes.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, R of the uridine substrate is -OH or -H, and at least one of R1 or R2 of the substrate base is a halogen; the substrate base comprises one or a plurality of 2-chloroadenine, 2-fluoroadenine, 2,6-dichloropurine, 6-chloro-2-fluoropurine or 2-amino-6-chloropurine.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, R of the uridine substrate is -NH2, and the substrate base comprises one or more of 2-aminoadenine, 2-fluoroadenine, 2-chloroadenine, 2,6-dichloropurine, 2-amino-6-chloropurine, or 6-methoxyguanine.
[0034] When synthesizing halogen-containing nucleoside products, using the manufacturing method of the prior art consumes large amounts of toxic halides, increasing operational requirements for the manufacturing process and polluting the environment. In this application, a non-toxic substrate base having a halogen substituent is used, and a purine nucleoside product containing a halogen can be synthesized by undergoing only a one-step reaction. This process is simple to operate, prevents the use of toxic halides, is safe to operate, and is environmentally friendly.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase comprises a protein having pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylation activity having homology of 70% or more (including, but not limited to, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, 99%, 99.5%, or 99.9%) with the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO. 1 and / or SEQ ID NO. 2. The purine nucleoside phosphorylase comprises a protein having purine nucleoside phosphorylation activity having homology of 70% or more (including, but not limited to, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, 99%, 99.5%, or 99.9%) with the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO. 3.
[0036] The identity of the present application refers to “homology” between amino acid sequences or nucleic acid sequences, that is, the sum of the ratios of amino acid residues or nucleotides of the same type in the amino acid sequence or nucleic acid sequence. The identity of the amino acid sequence or nucleic acid sequence can be determined using alignment programs such as BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) or FASTA.
[0037] The active site, active pocket, active mechanism, protein structure, etc. of a protein having homology of 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 99% or more (e.g., 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 98.5%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.6%, 99.7%, 99.8% or more, even 99.9% or more) and having the same function are all highly likely to be identical to the protein provided by the above sequence.
[0038] As used in the text, the abbreviations for amino acid residues are alanine (Ala; A), asparagine (Asn; N), aspartic acid (Asp; D), arginine (Arg; R), cysteine (Cys; C), glutamic acid (Glu; E), glutamine (Gln; Q), glycine (Gly; G), histidine (His; H), isoleucine (Ile; I), leucine (Leu; L), lysine (Lys; K), methionine (Met; M), phenylalanine (Phe; F), proline (Pro; P), serine (Ser; S), threonine (Thr; T), tryptophan (Trp; W), tyrosine (Tyr; Y) and valine (Val; V).
[0039] Rules such as substitution and replacement generally indicate that if amino acids possess similar characteristics, they will exhibit similar effects after substitution. For example, in the aforementioned homologous proteins, conservative amino acid substitutions may occur. “Conservative amino acid substitution” is
[0040] When a hydrophobic amino acid (Ala, Cys, Gly, Pro, Met, Val, Ile, Leu) is substituted by another hydrophobic amino acid;
[0041] When a hydrophobic amino acid with a bulky side chain (Phe, Tyr, Trp) is substituted by another hydrophobic amino acid with a bulky side chain;
[0042] When an amino acid having a positively charged side chain (Arg, His, Lys) is substituted by an amino acid having a different positively charged side chain;
[0043] This includes, but is not limited to, cases where an amino acid (Ser, Thr, Asn, Gln) having a polar and uncharged side chain is substituted by an amino acid having a different polar and uncharged side chain.
[0044] A person skilled in the art may also perform conservative substitutions on amino acids according to amino acid substitution rules well known to a person skilled in the art, such as the “blosum62 rating matrix” of the prior art.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment, R of the uridine substrate is -OH, and the pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase is the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO. 2; preferably, R of the uridine substrate is -H or -NH2, and the pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase is the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO. 1 and / or SEQ ID NO. 2.
[0052] In a preferred embodiment, R of the uridine substrate is -OH, -H, or -NH2, and the purine nucleoside phosphorylase is the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO. 3; preferably, R of the uridine substrate is -OH, and the purine nucleoside phosphorylase is the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO. 3.
[0053] Since the active centers of different enzymes may differ for the binding sites of different substrates, when the R of the uridine substrate is -H or -NH2, the pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase may be TP or PyNP, and both can bind to these two substrates and cause a catalytic reaction.
[0054] In the case of a catalytic reaction using TP, PyNP, and PNP, the three proteins may exist in various forms, such as purified proteins, coenzyme solutions, or immobilized enzymes, and all can catalyze purine nucleoside synthesis. A gene capable of expressing the protein can be cloned into a host cell, protein expression can be induced, and then the host cell can be lysed to obtain a coenzyme solution containing the target protein. The preparation of the coenzyme solution is simple, it possesses excellent catalytic ability, and can reduce the production cost of the catalytic reaction.
[0055] In a preferred embodiment, the purine nucleoside is 2-fluoroadenosine, 2-chloroadenosine, 2,6-dichloroadenosine, 6-chloro-2-fluoroadenosine, 6-chloroguanosine, 2-fluorodeoxyadenosine, 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine, 2,6-dichloropurine-2'-deoxynucleoside, 6-chloro-2-fluoropurine-2'-deoxynucleoside, 2'-fluorodeoxyadenosine, 2'-chlorodeoxyadenosine, 2,2'-diamino-2'-deoxyadenosine, 2-fluoro-2'-aminodeoxyadenosine, 2-chloro-2'-aminodeoxyadenosine, 2,6-dichloro-2'-aminodeoxyadenosine, 6-chloroguanine-2'-aminodeoxyadenosine or It contains 6-methoxy-2'-aminodeoxyguanosine.
[0056] Since different substrate nucleosides and different substrate bases have different biochemical properties, when TP, PyNP, and PNP are used in the synthesis, various purine nucleosides can be produced by performing enzyme-catalyzed reactions on all of the different substrate nucleosides and substrate bases.
[0057] In a preferred embodiment, the concentration of the uridine substrate in the above manufacturing method is 1 to 5000 mM, and the concentration of the substrate base is 1 to 5000 mM.

[0059] In a preferred embodiment, the catalytic time of the enzyme catalyst is 1 to 18 hours.
[0060] The enzyme catalytic time includes, but is not limited to, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, or 18h.
[0061] In a preferred embodiment, the catalyst temperature of the enzyme catalyst is 40 to 80°C.
[0062] The catalyst temperature above includes, but is not limited to, 40, 50, 60, 70, or 80°C.
[0063] The enzyme-catalyzed reaction can be completed within the appropriate catalyst temperature and catalyst time, and the conversion rate of the substrate base, i.e., the reaction yield, is high. There is no need to add additional enzymes or other reagents during the reaction, and the reaction can be completed by catalytically catalyzing in a single step, making it suitable for applications in large-scale industrial production.
