Abstract
The present invention relates to isolated polypeptides having D-psicose 3-epimerase activity and polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods of producing and using the polypeptides.
Claims19
An isolated polynucleotide encoding an isolated polypeptide having D-psicose 3-epimerase activity, wherein the polynucleotide is operably linked to one or more heterologous control sequences that direct the production of the polypeptide in an expression host, wherein the polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) a polypeptide having at least 95% sequence identity to the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2 or SEQ ID NO:
- 4;
- (b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 95% sequence identity to the polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1 or SEQ ID NO:
- 3;
- and
- (c) a fragment of the polypeptide of (a) or (b) that has D-psicose 3-epimerase activity.
A recombinant host cell comprising an isolated polynucleotide encoding an isolated polypeptide having D-psicose 3-epimerase activity, wherein the polynucleotide is operably linked to one or more heterologous control sequences that direct the production of the polypeptide, and wherein the polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) a polypeptide having at least 95% sequence identity to the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2 or SEQ ID NO:
- 4;
- (b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 95% sequence identity to the polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1 or SEQ ID NO:
- 3;
- and
- (c) a fragment of the polypeptide of (a) or (b) that has D-psicose 3-epimerase activity.
A method of producing a polypeptide having D-psicose 3-epimerase activity, comprising cultivating a recombinant host cell under conditions conducive for production of the polypeptide, wherein the recombinant host cell comprises an isolated polynucleotide encoding an isolated polypeptide having D-psicose 3-epimerase activity, wherein the polynucleotide is operably linked to one or more heterologous control sequences that direct the production of the polypeptide in the host cell, and wherein the polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) a polypeptide having at least 95% sequence identity to the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2 or SEQ ID NO:
- 4;
- (b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 95% sequence identity to the polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1 or SEQ ID NO:
- 3;
- and
- (c) a fragment of the polypeptide of (a) or (b) that has D-psicose 3-epimerase activity.
