Developing inexpensive nicotinamide cofactor biomimetics to replace the expensive NAD(P)/H cofactors is an ongoing research activity. Here we present mutational studies on a thermostable glucose dehydrogenase from (GDH) using a novel set of synthetic cofactors. Furthermore, we show the successful oxidation of a variety of different sugars in the context of cofactor regeneration. This combined approach resulted in an 160-fold improved system compared to the native enzyme with the standard biomimetic BNA. These findings pave the way towards competitive industrial utilization of artificial cofactor regeneration systems.
开发廉价的烟酰胺辅酶类似物来替代昂贵的 NAD(P)/H 辅酶是一项持续的研究活动。在这里,我们使用一组新的合成辅酶对来自Thermobifida fusca 的耐热葡萄糖脱氢酶 (GDH)进行了突变研究。此外,我们还展示了在辅酶再生的情况下,各种不同糖的成功氧化。与使用标准仿生 BNA 的天然酶相比,这种组合方法使系统的性能提高了 160 倍。这些发现为人工辅酶再生系统在工业上的竞争应用铺平了道路。
