The invention provides an alkali-resistant
xylanase mutant and application thereof. The alkali-resistant
xylanase mutant takes
xylanase as a parent
enzyme, the
amino acid sequence of the xylanase is shown as SEQ ID NO.1, and the alkali-resistant xylanase
mutant generates the following mutations relative to the parent
enzyme: the 27th site, the 121st site, the 194th site, the 27th site and the 111th site of the parent
enzyme are mutated into the 27th site, the 121st site, the 194th site, the 27th site and the 111th site of the parent enzyme, and the 27th site, the 121st site, the 194th amino acids of any one of the 27th site and the 194th site are mutated.
Amino acid mutation sites of the five types of xylanase are found in total, the alkali stability and the high-temperature stability of the five types of xylanase mutants are obviously improved compared with those of
wild type xylanase, and the
specific enzyme activity is higher than that of the
wild type xylanase. According to the five types of xylanase mutants,
glutamic acid and
aspartic acid with negative charges are replaced by
lysine with positive charges on the surface, so that the
protonation degree under the alkaline condition is improved, the hydration layer of xylanase under the alkaline condition is increased, the catalytic reaction is enhanced, and the activity of the xylanase under the alkaline condition is enhanced.
