The present application relates to the technical field of biological
enzyme engineering, and particularly relates to a
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide synthetase
mutant and application thereof. The
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide synthetase
mutant is obtained by mutating W11F, M12R, H37W, I40V, I40L, G43A, G43D, L46D, L46E, V55D, V55E, F60W, Y61S, L112I, L112K, L125E, L133T and other sites of NadR as a parent, so that the
mutant can efficiently catalyze low-cost substrates NR and ATP to generate NAD. In particular, by using the above-mentioned multi-
mutation point mutation, the mutant has better substrate binding capacity and
catalytic efficiency, higher NAD conversion rate and
enzyme activity (up to 12.49 U / mg), not only solves the technical problem of
low activity of the existing NAD synthetase, but also significantly reduces the production cost of NAD by using the low-priced NR to replace the expensive NMN as the substrate, and provides a more economically beneficial technical scheme for the industrial production of NAD.
