The invention discloses a firefly
luciferase Fluc
mutant and application of the firefly
luciferase Fluc
mutant, wild firefly
luciferase Fluc from North America fireflies is taken as a
research object,
single mutation or combined
mutation is carried out on a
protein sequence of the firefly luciferase Fluc to obtain a
mutant protein, and the
mutant protein is used for preparing the firefly luciferase Fluc mutant. Compared with
wild type Fluc, the
heat stability and activity of the Fluc
mutant protein are improved to a certain degree, compared with the
wild type Fluc, the
heat stability of the preferable
mutant protein is improved by 13.2-14.5 DEG C, the activity is improved by 1.4-2.5 times, the yield is improved by 2.4-3.9 times, the purity of the obtained preferable mutant
protein is higher than 99%, and it can be seen that the preferable mutant protein can be applied to the field of industrial production. The luciferase Fluc mutant protein provided by the invention has higher
enzyme activity, better
thermal stability and higher yield, widens the application conditions of luciferase Fluc, has higher practical application value, and is more suitable for large-scale production and industrial use.
