12 results about "Nitrilase" patented technology

Nitrilase enzymes (nitrile aminohydrolase; EC 3.5.5.1) catalyse the hydrolysis of nitriles to carboxylic acids and ammonia, without the formation of "free" amide intermediates. Nitrilases are involved in natural product biosynthesis and post translational modifications in plants, animals, fungi and certain prokaryotes. Nitrilases can also be used as catalysts in preparative organic chemistry. Among others, nitrilases have been used for the resolution of racemic mixtures. Nitrilase should not be confused with nitrile hydratase (nitrile hydro-lyase; EC 4.2.1.84) which hydrolyses nitriles to amides. Nitrile hydratases are almost invariably co-expressed with an amidase, which converts the amide to the carboxylic acid. Consequently, it can sometimes be difficult to distinguish nitrilase activity from nitrile hydratase plus amidase activity.

This invention belongs to the field of enzyme engineering technology, specifically relating to an enzyme engineering method and its application in biocatalysis. Based on the excellent performance optimization capabilities of the deep learning-guided protein sequence design model ProteinMPNN, this invention developed a computational design framework called DeepPCD. This framework integrates deep learning-guided sequence design, physical energy calculation, and molecular dynamics simulation, constructing a three-level intelligent screening process from "massive generation" to "high-precision prediction." Using this strategy, nitrile hydrolase (EC 3.5.5.1) was mutated, resulting in a nitrile hydrolase mutant with improved stability, specificity, and enzyme activity, capable of efficiently and specifically catalyzing the hydrolysis of nitrile compounds to carboxylic acids.
