The present disclosure relates to a synthesis method of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (β-NMN) and an intermediate thereof. In the present disclosure, phospholipid metabolism enzymes phospholipase D (PLD) and phospholipase C (PLC) widely present in the biosphere are used as catalysts to prepare β-NMN through two-step enzymolysis or one-pot synthesis; and an intermediate, namely phosphatidyl nicotinamide riboside (PNR), is obtained during the two-step enzymolysis. The present disclosure has simple reaction steps, low production cost, and environmental friendliness, and is suitable for large-scale industrial production.

Described herein are recombinant fermenting organisms having a heterologous polynucleotide encoding a phospholipase. Also described are processes for producing a fermentation product, such as ethanol, from starch or cellulosic-containing material with the recombinant fermenting organisms.

The present invention relates to a process for treating an oil comprising a chlorophyll substrate, the process comprising contacting the oil with a polypeptide having decolorase activity or a composition comprising the polypeptide, wherein the polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of: a. a polypeptide which has at least 80% identity to amino acids 1 to 318 of SEQ ID NO: 1; and, b. a polypeptide encoded by a nucleic acid sequence that has at least 80% identity to the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.

Provided is a polypeptide having phospholipase C activity. The polypeptide has: 1) an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID No: 2, comprising amino acid substitutions occurred at one or more positions, wherein the one or more positions are selected from positions 6, 8, 10, 104, and 205 in the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID No: 2 or any combination thereof; or 2) having at least 80% sequence identity with 1), and at least one of positions 6, 8, 10, 104 and 205 being different from positions 6, 8, 10, 104, and 205 in the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID No: 2. Provided are a nucleic acid molecule for encoding the polypeptide, a vector comprising the nucleic acid molecule, and a cell comprising the nucleic acid molecule or the vector. Provided are uses of the polypeptide, the nucleic acid molecule, the vector, and the cell.

Provided in the present invention is a phospholipase C mutant with high enzyme activity, a polypeptide with the sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO:7, or a polypeptide derived from the phospholipase C formed by performing substitution, deletion or addition of one or a plurality of amino acids on the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:7 while retaining the phospholipase C activity provided by SEQ ID NO:7. The phospholipase C mutant of the present invention can improve degumming efficiency and increase the yield of diacylglycerol (DAG) during degumming.

Provided are methods for producing food products comprising recombinant components, and compositions used in and food products produced by such methods.
