The invention discloses a production method of alpha-
amino acid ester
acyltransferase and
valine dipeptide, and relates to the technical field of
biology. The
amino acid sequence of the alpha-
amino acid ester
acyltransferase is as shown in SEQ ID NO. 4. Alpha is modified through design; according to the present invention, the
mutant with the significantly improved catalytic performance is successfully obtained, and the efficient and green
enzyme-method
valine dipeptide synthesis process is established. The process is carried out under mild conditions, L-
valine methyl ester and L-
tryptophan are taken as substrates, and high-activity
mutant enzyme expressed by
engineering bacteria is utilized for
catalysis, so that the yield of the valine-
tryptophan dipeptide is up to 22.42 g / L, which is 1.62 times that of original
enzyme, and the defects of traditional
chemical synthesis and existing
enzymatic process are effectively overcome; the method has the outstanding advantages of simple steps, mild conditions, high product concentration, environmental friendliness and the like, and provides a reliable technical scheme with wide prospects for industrial production of valine dipeptide.
