摘要: 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD) is a versatile bio-based platform chemical. An artificial four-enzyme synthetic biosystem composed of ethanol dehydrogenase, NADH oxidase, formolase and 2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase was designed for upgrading ethanol to 2,3-BD in our previous study. However, a key challenge in developing in vitro enzymatic systems for 2,3-BD synthesis is the relatively sluggish catalytic efficiency of formolase, which catalyzes the rate-limiting step in such systems. Herein, this study reports how engineering the tunnel and substrate binding pocket of FLS improved its catalytic performance. A series of single-point and combinatorial variants were successfully obtained which displayed both higher catalytic efficiency and better substrate tolerance than wild-type FLS. Subsequently, a cell-free biosystem based on the FLS:I28V/L482E enzyme was implemented for upgrading ethanol to 2,3-BD. Ultimately, this system achieved efficient production of 2,3-BD from ethanol by the fed-batch method, reaching a concentration of 1.39 M (124.83 g/L) of the product and providing both excellent productivity and yield values of 5.94 g/L/h and 92.7%, respectively. Taken together, this modified enzymatic catalysis system provides a highly promising alternative approach for sustainable and cost-competitive production of 2,3-BD.
