Abstract

D-tagatose, a low-calorie rare sugar, has significant potential in food, medicine, cosmetics, and other industries owing to its high application value and market potential. In this study, Escherichia coli BL21 was used as the starting strain to express the β-galactosidase (β-Gal) gene-BgaB-derived from Bacillus stearothermophilus and the L-arabinose isomerase (L-AI) gene-araA-derived from Thermus sp., yielding the genetically engineered strains E. coli BL21-pET28a-BgaB and E. coli BL21-pET28a-araA. These strains synthesized D-tagatose using β-Gal and L-AI with a conversion rate of 23.73%. Based on this, we constructed a multienzyme cascade pathway comprising β-Gal, L-AI, glucose isomerase (GI), fructose kinase (FK), D-tagatose-bisphosphate aldolase (GatZ), polyphosphate kinase (PPK), and phosphatase (PGP), further enhancing D-tagatose biosynthesis. This multienzyme approach improved the conversion of the intermediate product D-glucose to D-tagatose by 3.84% compared with the dual-enzyme system. Thus, our study provides a theoretical basis and technical support for the industrial production of D-tagatose.

期刊介绍： AMB Express is a high quality journal that brings together research in the area of Applied and Industrial Microbiology with a particular interest in ''White Biotechnology'' and ''Red Biotechnology''. The emphasis is on processes employing microorganisms, eukaryotic cell cultures or enzymes for the biosynthesis, transformation and degradation of compounds. This includes fine and bulk chemicals, polymeric compounds and enzymes or other proteins. Downstream processes are also considered. Integrated processes combining biochemical and chemical processes are also published.
