    Abstract: Provided are transaminase mutants and uses thereof. The transaminase mutant is obtained by one or more amino acid mutations occurring in SEQ ID NO: 2 or is a mutant with a conserved amino acid mutation obtained by taking the sequence SEQ ID NO: 1 of a wild-type CvTA transaminase as a reference. Compared with wild-type transaminases, the catalytic activity of the mutant is improved to different degrees, so that the production efficiency of chiral amine compound synthesis may be improved.
