  • Patent number: 12735684
    Abstract: A glycosyltransferase mutant and a method for catalytic synthesis of rebaudioside M using the glycosyltransferase mutant are provided. The glycosyltransferase mutant is obtained through mutation based on a glycosyltransferase amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and can be produced by inducing expression in a mutant strain. The glycosyltransferase mutant can be used as a catalyst for enzymatic catalytic synthesis of 12.8 g/LRebM from 20 g/LRebE. Michaelis constants (a kinetic parameter) of the glycosyltransferase mutant S195Q for rebaudioside E and rebaudioside D are 56.34±2.02 ?M and 214.48±14.54 ?M, respectively, which are ? and ? of a Michaelis constant of a wild-type (WT) glycosyltransferase, respectively.
