Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a D-psicose 3-epimerase variant with improved thermostability by substituting an amino acid at a specific position of an amino acid sequence of a wild type D-psicose 3-epimerase. Further, the present invention provides a recombinant expression vector including a gene of the D-psicose 3-epimerase variant, and a recombinant strain transformed with the recombinant expression vector. Furthermore, the present invention provides an immobilized reactor prepared using the D-psicose 3-epimerase variant or the recombinant strain, and a method of continuously producing D-psicose using the immobilized reactor.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A D-psicose 3-epimerase variant with improved thermostability, wherein the variant is a variant of a wild type D-psicose 3-epimerase of SEQ ID NO:1 derived from Agrobacterium tumefaciens and has an amino acid sequence in which isoleucine (Ile) at position 33 of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 is substituted with an amino acid selected from the group consisting of leucine (Leu), cysteine (Cys) and valine (Val), or an amino acid sequence in which…
