Nucleic acid encoding an isomerase, host cells containing the nucleic acid, and methods of making and using the host cells
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a nucleic acid encoding an isomerase and uses of the isomerase for bioconversion of sugar substrates. The invention represents an advancement in the field of enzyme engineering and discloses a modified nucleic acid for achieving optimum expression of a protein having isomerase activity in a heterologous host. The invention also discloses vectors carrying the modified nucleic acid and recombinant host cells carrying the vectors. The invention also discloses the process for producing a recombinant host cell, process for production of the recombinant enzyme and the process for bioconversion of sugars into their respective isomers using the recombinant protein.
