  • Patent number: 11859224
    Abstract: The disclosure provides methods of manufacturing products comprising allulose produced by contacting a protein having allulose 3-epimerase activity with a fructose substrate under conditions such that the fructose substrate is converted into allulose. The disclosure also provides methods of manufacturing products comprising allulose produced by providing a vector comprising a nucleic acid molecule having a polynucleotide sequence encoding a protein having allulose 3-epimerase activity.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10294469
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a method of producing allulose by contacting a protein having at least 90% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6 with a fructose substrate, wherein the protein has allulose 3-epimerase activity, and at least partially purifying the allulose. The disclosure also provides a method of producing allulose by providing a vector comprising a nucleic acid molecule having a polynucleotide sequence encoding a protein having at least 90% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6, wherein the protein has allulose 3-epimerase activity, synthesizing the protein having allulose 3-epimerase activity, contacting fructose with the protein having allulose 3-epimerase activity, and partially purifying the allulose produced.
