Description

Erythrose reductase mutant and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering, and particularly relates to an erythrose reductase mutant and application thereof.
Background
Erythritol (1, 2,3, 4-tetrol) is white, odorless, non-hygroscopic, non-optical active, good in heat stability and easy to dissolve in water, has sweetness of 60% -70% of sucrose, has calorie of 0.2kcal/g, is only 5% of the calorie of sucrose, and is a low-calorie sweetener. The food has the advantages of cool taste, no decayed tooth, good crystallization and the like, and has wider application in the field of food industry. Erythritol can be synthesized by a chemical method and a microbial fermentation method, however, the chemical synthesis method has the defects of low production efficiency, high cost, operation danger and the like; the microbial fermentation method has mild and easily controlled production process, and becomes a main way for producing erythritol nowadays. Yarrowia lipolytica Yarrowia lipolytica is taken as a recognized food-safe microorganism, and is a main utilization strain of erythritol produced at home and abroad at present due to the advantages of strong stress resistance, unique gene structure, wide available substrates and the like.
In yarrowia lipolytica, erythritol is produced by the Pentose Phosphate Pathway (PPP) as an osmoprotectant. The last step in the metabolic synthesis pathway of erythritol is the reduction of D-erythrose to erythritol by catalysis of the enzyme Erythrose Reductase (ER), which in the catalytic process takes NADPH as cofactor. Erythrose reductase is the only enzyme in the last step of the erythritol biosynthetic pathway and is considered to be a key enzyme for the overall reaction.
As a rate-limiting enzyme for producing erythritol, the expression and activity of the erythritol reductase are critical to the efficiency of erythritol synthesis. However, the protein engineering work for the enzyme is little at present, so that the obtained erythrose reductase mutant with improved catalytic capability has important significance for further improving the yield of erythritol.
