  • Publication number: 20240117329
    Abstract: Disclosed are a cocaine esterase mutant and use thereof. The cocaine esterase mutant is obtained by mutating a wildtype cocaine esterase, an amino acid sequence of the wildtype cocaine esterase is shown as SEQ ID No.1, the cocaine esterase mutant is T172R/G173Q/L196C/I301C, or additionally added with V116K point mutation, or additionally added with A51 site mutation, and the A51 site mutation is L, Y, V, F or W. Catalytic efficiency of the cocaine esterase mutant screened on a cocaine toxic metabolite benzoylecgonine is greatly improved compared with that of a wildtype enzyme.
