In certain embodiments, the mutants or fragments thereof may have at least about 95% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 2. Another aspect provided herein relates to a DNA polynucleotide comprising one or more lysine decarboxylase nucleotide sequences of mutants of SEQ ID NO: 1 (i.e., mutants of K. oxytoca ldc), fragments thereof, or fragments of SEQ ID NO: 1 (i.e., fragments of K. oxytoca ldc). In certain embodiments, the DNA polynucleotide as disclosed herein may encode one or more lysine decarboxylase polypeptides provided herein. In certain embodiments, the DNA polynucleotide as disclosed herein may encode SEQ ID NO: 2, mutants, and/or fragments thereof. In certain embodiments, the lysine decarboxylase nucleotide sequences provided herein may have at least 95% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 3. Another aspect provided herein relates to expression vectors comprising the DNA polynucleotides described herein used for production of a lysine-derived product. Other aspects provided herein include transformants, mutant host cells, methods for the production of lysine decarboxylases, and methods for the production of a lysine-derived product.

摘要: The invention relates to a long-chain dibasic acid with low content of monobasic acid impurity and a production method thereof, in particular to the preparation of a long-chain dibasic acid producing strain by means of directed evolution and homologous recombination, and to the production of a long-chain dibasic acid with low content of monobasic acid impurity by fermentation of said strain. The invention relates to a mutated CYP52A12 gene, homologous gene or variant thereof, which, relative to GenBank Accession Number AY230498 and taking the first base upstream of the start codon ATG as −1, comprises a mutation. The invention relates to a strain comprising said mutated CYP52A12 gene, homologous gene or variant thereof wherein when the strain is fermented to produce a long-chain dibasic acid, the content of monobasic acid impurity in the fermentation product is significantly reduced.
