The application optimizes the quality control of key process such as extraction, separation, purification and decolorization, and can obtain the rubusoside product with purity more than 99%, and the product is white, no bitterness, less solvent residue, no pesticide residue, and stable quality.

The disclosure relates to a sucrose phosphorylase mutant with improved enzyme activity, and construction method thereof and use thereof, and belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering. The amino acid sequence of the mutant of the disclosure is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. The mutant of the disclosure is based on sucrose phosphorylase derived from Leuconostoc mesenteroides, and subjected to site-directed mutagenesis to improve the enzyme activity of sucrose phosphorylase. The mutant is expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum and used as a whole cell catalyst to produce 2-O-α-D-glycerol glucoside. At a 5L fermentation tank level, a large quantity of 2-O-α-D-glycerol glucoside can be produced efficiently in a short time, which is conducive to expanding the prospect of industrial application of sucrose phosphorylase for the production of 2-O-α-D-glycerol glucoside and realizing its large-scale industrial application.

The present disclosure relates to glycolipid compositions, methods for making glycolipid compositions, and their uses thereof. Glycolipid compositions can be prepared via yeast-mediated catalyzed reaction, and exhibit excellent surfactant properties having high corrosion inhibition performance, good reducing surface tension efficiency. Processes of the present disclosure can provide glycolipid compositions having one or more of: a ratio of lactonic glycolipids to glycolipid acylic esters is from about 1:10 to about 10:1, a molecular weight of from about 400 g/mol to about 10,000 g/mol, a corrosion rate of carbon steel from about 0.5 MPY to about 100 MPY at room temperature and at pH 4-6. Furthermore, aqueous solutions of the glycolipid compositions of the present disclosure can have a surface tension of from about 20 mN/m to about 80 mN/m.

Recombinant microorganisms, plants, and plant cells are disclosed that have been engineered to express recombinant genes encoding UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs). Such microorganisms, plants, or plant cells can produce steviol glycosides, e.g., Rebaudioside A and/or Rebaudioside D, which can be used as natural sweeteners in food products and dietary supplements.
