Abstract
A mannose-6-phosphate isomerase (MPI) from Geobacillus thermodenitrificans was expressed and successfully encapsulated into the Saccharomyces cerevisiae spores. Our results demonstrated that compared to the free enzyme, the MPI triple mutant encapsulated in osw2Δ spores exhibited much preferred enzymatic properties, such as enhanced catalytic activity, excellent reusability, thermostability, and tolerance to various harsh conditions. In combination with an l-arabinose isomerase (AI) also from G. thermodenitrificans, this technique of spore encapsulation was applied for producing a high-value rare sugar l-ribose from biomass-derived l-arabinose. Using a 10 mL reaction system, 350 mg of l-ribose was produced from 1 g of l-arabinose with a conversion yield of 35% by repeatedly reacting with 200 mg of AI-encapsulated spores and 300 mg of MPI-encapsulated spores. This study provides a very useful and concise approach for the synthesis of rare sugars and other useful compounds.
