The present invention relates to genetically engineered organisms, especially microorganisms such as bacteria and yeasts, for the production of added value bio-products such as specialty saccharide, activated saccharide, nucleoside, glycoside, glycolipid or glycoprotein. More specifically, the present invention relates to host cells that are metabolically engineered so that they can produce said valuable specialty products in large quantities and at a high rate by bypassing classical technical problems that occur in biocatalytical or fermentative production processes.

The present disclosure relates to tagatose-6-phosphate phosphatase consisting of an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, a nucleic acid encoding the tagatose-6-phosphate phosphatase, and a transformant comprising the nucleic acid. Additionally, the present disclosure relates to a composition for producing tagatose, which comprises the tagatose-6-phosphate phosphatase of the present disclosure, and a method for producing tagatose using the tagatose-6-phosphate phosphatase of the present disclosure.

The present invention relates to a sucrose phosphorylase variant comprising or consisting of an amino acid sequence with at least 75% homologous and/or identical to an amino acid sequence of wild type sucrose phosphorylase, preferably wherein the sucrose phosphorylase is characterized by different structural and functional features. The invention also relates to method for preparing aG1P and a co-product, wherein the method comprises reacting a sucrose phosphorylase with a glucoside substrate, wherein the sucrose phosphorylase is a sucrose phosphorylase as defined in the context of the present invention.

The invention relates to a saccharose phosphorylase that catalyzes the synthesis of glucose-1-phosphate and fructose from saccharose and phosphate, among other things. The saccharose phosphorylase according to the invention can be considered to be a mutation of the saccharose phosphorylase from Bifidobacterium adolescentis. In comparison to wild-type saccharose phosphorylase, the saccharose phosphorylase according to the invention is distinguished by improved activity, process stability, temperature stability, and lower product inhibition and is therefore particularly suitable for use in industrial processes.

The present disclosure relates to a method for preparing myo-inositol using myo-inositol monophosphate synthase consisting of an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and/or myo-inositol monophosphate phosphatase consisting of an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3.

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).
