Provided herein, in some embodiments, are systems, methods, and compositions (e.g., cells and cell lysates) for enzymatically converting a polymeric glucose carbohydrate (e.g., starch) to sugar.

The current disclosure provides a process for enzymatically converting a saccharide into allulose. The invention also relates to a process for preparing allulose where the process involves converting fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) to allulose 6-phosphate (A6P), catalyzed by allulose 6-phosphate 3-epimerase (A6PE), and converting the A6P to allulose, catalyzed by allulose 6-phosphate phosphatase (A6PP).

In various aspects and embodiments, the invention provides microbial cells and methods for producing advanced glycosylation products from lower glycosylated intermediates. The microbial cell expresses one or more UDP-dependent glycosyl transferase enzymes in the cytoplasm, for glycosylation of the intermediates. When incubating the microbial strain with a plant extract or fraction thereof comprising the intermediates, these glycosylated intermediates are available for further glycosylation by the cell, and the advanced glycosylation products can be recovered from the media and/or microbial cells.

Provided are a recombinant microorganism modified by means of genetic engineering and an application of the recombinant microorganism in production of tagatose, a preparation method for the recombinant microorganism, a tagatose production strain and a tagatose production method. According to the recombinant microorganism, the tagatose is produced by taking glucose as a substrate or taking glycerol and glucose as substrates; the efficiency of conversion and production of tagatose by means of the recombinant microorganism is high, and a multi-enzyme purification process step is not needed.
