摘要:

裂解多糖单加氧酶(LPMO)是一种氧化酶,其生化特性、在木质纤维素降解中的作用、蛋白质工程改造与优化,以及在工业生物技术中的应用受到广泛关注。木质纤维素因其复杂的结构与化学成分在天然条件下难以高效降解,其有效降解与转化已成为一项重要挑战。LPMO能够通过氧化作用切断多糖的结晶表面,协同糖苷水解酶高效降解木质纤维素,从而在秸秆等天然难降解生物质的转化中发挥重要作用。采用异源表达在其他宿主中生产LPMO是一种提升LPMO产量并推动其产业化的有效策略,当前已有诸多成功案例通过基因工程手段提升LPMO的稳定性、活性、底物特异性与催化效率。目前,LPMO已在植物抗病、食品工业与畜牧工业等工业生物技术领域展现出巨大的应用潜力。未来研究可进一步深入解析LPMO的催化降解机制,拓展其高效异源表达与蛋白质工程改造策略,以推动LPMO的工业化应用。

Abstract:

Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) is an oxidase whose biochemical characteristics, role in lignocellulosic degradation, protein engineering and optimization, and applications in industrial biotechnology have attracted widespread attention. Due to its complex structure and chemical composition, lignocellulose is difficult to degrade efficiently under natural conditions, and its effective degradation and transformation have become an important challenge. LPMO cleaves the crystalline surfaces of polysaccharides through oxidative reactions and synergizes with glycosidases to efficiently degrade lignocellulose. This function enables LPMO to play an important role in facilitating the degradation of naturally recalcitrant materials such as straw. The adoption of heterologous expression to produce LPMO in other hosts is an effective strategy to boost LPMO production and promote its industrialization. At present, numerous successful cases of LPMO genetic engineering have been reported, where its stability, activity, substrate specificity, and catalytic efficiency have been enhanced through various strategies. LPMO has found broad applications in industrial biotechnology, including disease-resistant plant, the food industry, and animal husbandry, demonstrating considerable potential. Future research may focus on further elucidating the catalytic degradation mechanism of LPMO, expanding studies on efficient heterologous expression and protein engineering, and advancing the industrial utilization of LPMO.
