Directed modification of glucosamine synthase mutant and application thereof

The present invention discloses a directionally modified glucosamine synthase mutant and its application. The amino acid sequence of the glucosamine synthase mutant is as shown in sequence list SEQ ID No. 1, and the nucleotide sequence is as shown in sequence list SEQ ID No. 2. The genetic engineering bacteria of glucosamine synthase is successfully constructed. In order to improve the tolerance of recombinant bacteria against glucosamine, the glucosamine synthase is directionally modified. A glucosamine synthase mutant is selected from the mutant library via high-throughput screening method, the amino acid changes in the mutant induces the spatial conformational change in the enzyme, so as enlarged the region where the enzyme and substrate combines, therefor the combination efficiency of the enzyme and the substrate is increased. The glucosamine synthase of the present invention has various advantages, such as rich in raw material of glucose, and a convenient subsequent extraction.

Enzymatic preparation of glucosamine

A method for preparing glucosamine includes the steps of converting fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) and an ammonium salt to glucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcN6P) under the catalysis of glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase (EC 3.5.99.6, GlmD); and producing glucosamine (GlcN) by the dephosphorylation of GlcN6P under the catalysis of an enzyme capable of catalyzing the dephosphorylation. Such a method can be used to prepare glucosamine by in vitro enzymatic biosystem.
