Efficient Synthesis of Purine Nucleoside Analogs by a New Trimeric Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase from Aneurinibacillus migulanus AM007.

ABSTRACT: Purine nucleoside phosphorylases (PNPs) are promising biocatalysts for the synthesis of purine nucleoside analogs. Although a number of PNPs have been reported, the development of highly efficient enzymes for industrial applications is still in high demand. Herein, a new trimeric purine nucleoside phosphorylase (AmPNP) from Aneurinibacillus migulanus AM007 was cloned and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The AmPNP showed good thermostability and a broad range of pH stability. The enzyme was thermostable below 55 °C for 12 h (retaining nearly 100% of its initial activity), and retained nearly 100% of the initial activity in alkaline buffer systems (pH 7.0-9.0) at 60 °C for 2 h. Then, a one-pot, two-enzyme mode of transglycosylation reaction was successfully constructed
