ActiveCN116769738BBacteriaMicroorganism based processesMutantCitrobacter koseri
The application discloses a mutant of glutamate-cysteine synthetase and application of the mutant in synthesis of glutathione. Single-site mutation is carried out on amino acid residues at positions 150, 188, 235, 236, 241, 300, 301, 302 and 330 of wild-type glutamate-cysteine synthetase (Glutamate-cysteine ligase [EC:6.3.2.2]) from Citrobacter koseri (strain ATCC BAA-895), and mutant sites at positions 150, 236, 302 and 330 are screened. Mutants M1-M6 are obtained by combination mutation of the mutant sites screened above, and the enzyme activity of the mutant M4 with the highest activity is increased by 477% compared with that of the wild-type glutamate-cysteine synthetase. The mutant M4 is used to catalyze synthesis of glutathione, and the highest concentration reaches 23 g / L, which is increased by 4.2 times compared with the wild type, and the production cost is greatly reduced, so the mutant has important application value.

Bacillus licheniformis recombinant strain with high yield of L-cysteine

PendingCN121975709Aincrease biosynthesisreduce conversionBacteriaMicroorganism based processesBacillus licheniformisLyase
The invention discloses a bacillus licheniformis recombinant strain with high yield of L-cysteine, and belongs to the technical field of synthetic biology and microbial metabolism engineering. The cysteine synthesis flux is enhanced through multiple knockout and combined overexpression. An efficient engineering strain is constructed by knocking out a serine hydroxymethyltransferase coding gene glyA and an L-serine ammonolysis enzyme coding gene sdaAA of a serine catabolism key pathway, knocking out a cysteine catabolism gene metC and combining gene overexpression to introduce a feedback inhibition removal mutant cysEf and a transporter eamA, and the efficient engineering strain is used for preparing a recombinant strain. Finally, the yield of the L-cysteine reaches 1.075 g / L in shake flask fermentation (the conversion rate is 18.69%), and the application potential of the bacillus licheniformis in sulfur metabolism engineering is highlighted.

A novel low-temperature curing epoxy curing agent and a preparation method thereof

The application discloses a novel low-temperature curing epoxy curing agent and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of epoxy curing agents. The novel low-temperature curing epoxy curing agent is made of eugenol, cysteine and formaldehyde. The application selects raw materials through a large number of experiments, adopts new raw materials, i.e. eugenol and cysteine. The eugenol molecule contains a phenolic hydroxyl group, an allyl group and a methoxyl group; the cysteine molecule contains an amino group, a carboxyl group and a sulfydryl group (-SH). These groups increase the reactivity of the curing agent, and especially the sulfydryl group can greatly improve the curing speed of the curing agent in a low-temperature environment. The phenolic aldehyde amine curing agent synthesized by using eugenol and cysteine has a faster low-temperature curing speed than a general cardanol phenolic aldehyde amine curing agent, and also has a good heat deformation resistance, and thus a good technical effect is achieved.
