    摘要: Provided are amino acid sequences of engineered transaminase polynucleotide that are useful for asymmetrically synthesizing chiral amine compounds, and its preparation process and reaction process under industrial-relevant conditions. Also provided are polynucleotide sequences encoding engineered transaminase polypeptides, engineered host cells capable of expressing engineered transaminase polypeptides, and methods of producing chiral amine compounds using engineered transaminase polypeptides. Compared to other enzymes, the engineered transaminase polypeptides provided by this invention have better catalytic activity and stability, and are not inhibited by chiral amine products in the synthesis process. The use of the engineered polypeptides of the present invention for the preparation of chiral amine compound results in higher unit activity, and has good industrial application prospects.

    摘要: Provided herein are engineered decarboxylase polypeptides that are useful for catalyzing the decarboxylation of amino acids such as L-tyrosine to produce tyramine or catalyzing the decarboxylation of L-DOPA to produce dopamine. Also provided are the preparation process of engineered decarboxylase polypeptides as well as reaction process under industrial-relevant conditions. The disclosure also provides polynucleotide sequences encoding engineered decarboxylase polypeptides, recombinant host cells capable of expressing engineered decarboxylase polypeptides, and methods of producing tyramine or dopamine using the engineered decarboxylase polypeptides. Compared to the wild type decarboxylase, the engineered polypeptide provided by this disclosure has better activity and/or stability. The use of the engineered polypeptides for the preparation of tyramine or dopamine reduces the production cost and has a good industrial application prospect.
