Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis L-galactonate shows potential applications as an additive to nutrients and cosmetics. AnGar1 variants are developed that represent the a GalA reductases with a higher preference for NADH compared to NADPH. The altered cofactor-specificity enables the coupling of GalA reduction to glycolysis, resulting in higher yields of GalOA when glucose is used as a redox donor. The engineered AnGar1 should prove valuable for D-galacturonic acid utilization in pectin-rich hydrolysates, which contain neutral sugars such as glucose, galactose, or arabinose, all of which are funneled into glycolysis. The NADH-dependent GalA reductases can facilitate the coupling of L-galactonate production to the oxidation of glycerol, an abundant waste product that can be supplemented to pectin-rich hydrolysates Aspergillus niger

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
K261M site-directed mutagenesis, the recombinant yeast strain expressing the enzyme mutant shows increased activity with NADH in L-galacturonate reduction compared to wild-type Aspergillus niger
K261M the mutation confers AnGar1 the ability to accept NADH in addition to NADPH. Mutation partly abolishes the AnGar1 activity with NADPH as the cofactor Aspergillus niger
K261M/R267L mutation confers NADH specificity to the enzyme. Mutation almost fully abolishes the AnGar1 activity with NADPH as the cofactor Aspergillus niger
K261M/R267L site-directed mutagenesis, the recombinant yeast strain expressing the enzyme mutant shows increased activity with NADH in L-galacturonate reduction compared to wild-type Aspergillus niger
additional information establishment of the production of L-galactonate (GalOA) or the full GalA catabolic pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using the enzyme mutant K261M/R267L with increased NADH activity, and coupling the reduction of GalA to the oxidation of the sugar alcohol sorbitol that has a higher reduction state compared to glucose for yielding the necessary redox cofactors. By choosing a suitable sorbitol dehydrogenase, yeast strains are designed in which the sorbitol metabolism yields a surplus of either NADPH or NADH Aspergillus niger
R267L site-directed mutagenesis, the recombinant yeast strain expressing the enzyme mutant shows increased activity with NADH in L-galacturonate reduction compared to wild-type Aspergillus niger
R267L the mutation confers AnGar1 the ability to accept NADH in addition to NADPH. Mutation partly abolishes the AnGar1 activity with NADPH as the cofactor Aspergillus niger
