Key Points

  • To improve the glucosyltransferase ZmDo enzyme for better synthesis of luteolin-5-O-xyloside.
  • Engineered glucosyltransferase ZmDo through directed evolution.
  • Constructed a de novo UDP-Xyl biosynthetic pathway for cofactor regeneration.
  • Optimized conditions to maximize product yield and conversion rate.
  • Achieved a titer of 4451 mg/L of luteolin-5-O-xyloside.
  • Obtained an 87% conversion rate in optimized conditions.
  • Enhanced enzyme activity was 2.3-fold compared to the wild type.

Abstract

), 2.3-fold higher than the wild type. A de novo UDP-Xyl biosynthetic pathway was constructed, enabling intracellular cofactor regeneration. Under optimized conditions, a titer of 4451 mg/L with an 87% conversion rate was achieved.
