The invention discloses a
glycosyl transferase mutant with improved
thermal stability and activity, and belongs to the technical field of biological catalytic synthesis. Through
rational design, the 102nd site, the 110th site, the 208th site and the 251th site of
glycosyl transferase are mutated to obtain a combined
mutant UGT94E13M3 phase starting
enzyme, the half-life period of the combined
mutant UGT94E13M3 phase starting
enzyme at the temperature of 45 DEG C is prolonged from 0.60 h to 8.88 h, the
thermal stability is improved by 14.8 times, and the
enzyme activity is improved by 1.08 times. According to the invention, the mutant and
sucrose synthase are subjected to a
coupling reaction, so that the Reb D conversion rate reaches 71.40%, and an efficient and green new way is provided for production of
rebaudioside M8.
