Title:
MUTANT AND GENE ENCODING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/142243
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A CGTase mutant derived from parent γ-CGTase by substituting at least one of the amino acid residues by an amino acid residue differing from the corresponding amino acid residue of the parent γ-CGTase, which has an improved specific activity relating to the synthesis of γ-cyclodextrin compared with the parent γ-CGTase; a gene encoding the amino acid sequence of this mutant; and a method of producing the above-described CGTase mutant which comprises culturing a transformant, which has been transformed by a recombinant vector having the above gene or by chromosomal homologous recombination, and collecting the cyclodextrin glucanotransferase mutant thus produced by the above-described transformant. Namely, it is intended to provide an improved CGTase mutant, which has a higher specific activity than the parent γ-CGTase and enables the reduction of the amount of oxygen required for obtaining a desired CD composition, by mutating γ-cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (γ-CGTase); a gene of the CGTase mutant as described above; and a method of producing the CGTase mutant by using the same.
