The invention discloses a method for synthesizing reduced
coenzyme I by a biological method, and belongs to the field of
enzyme engineering. The method comprises the following steps: (1) taking
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and glucose as substrates, and carrying out enzymatic reaction under the
catalysis of a
glucose dehydrogenase mutant GDH-E170K-I181S-Q252L to generate an enzymatic reaction solution; wherein the concentration of the
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is 100-300g / L, the reaction pH is 6.5-10, the temperature is 20-40 DEG C, and the time is 10-60 minutes; and (2) sequentially carrying out
anion exchange chromatography,
nanofiltration concentration and
crystallization purification on the
enzyme catalysis reaction liquid to obtain a high-purity reduced
coenzyme I product. Mild, efficient and
pollution-free synthesis under high
substrate concentration is realized by adopting a
specific enzyme mutant, a simplified three-step purification process is combined, the HPLC purity of the final product is greater than or equal to 99%, the content is greater than 99.8%, the total yield reaches 85-95%, and the whole process is efficient, economical and suitable for large-scale production.
