Corrigendum: Characterization of a novel N-acetylneuraminic acid lyase favoring industrial N-acetylneuraminic acid synthesis process

چکیده
The original version of this article contained an error in testing the kinetic parameters of CgNal towards pyruvate, in which the concentration of ManNAc (50 mM) was not in excess. This error was corrected by re-running the assay in the presence of excessive ManNAc (180 mM). The corrected kinetic parameters of CgNal towards pyruvate are shown in Table 1. These changes do not change the conclusions of the article.

Characterization of a novel N-acetylneuraminic acid lyase favoring N-acetylneuraminic acid synthesis
N-Acetylneuraminic acid lyase (NAL, E.C. number 4.1.3.3) is a Class I aldolase that catalyzes the reversible aldol cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) from pyruvate and N-acetyl-D-mannosamine (ManNAc). Due to the equilibrium favoring Neu5Ac cleavage, the enzyme catalyzes the rate-limiting step of two biocatalytic reactions producing Neu5Ac in industry. We report the biochemical charact...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of a novel N-acetylneuraminate lyase from Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1.
N-Acetylneuraminate lyases (NALs) or sialic acid aldolases catalyze the reversible aldol cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) to form pyruvate and N-acetyl-d-mannosamine (ManNAc). In nature, N-acetylneuraminate lyase occurs mainly in pathogens. However, this paper describes how an N-acetylneuraminate lyase was cloned from the human gut commensal Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 (LpNAL), ov...

Analogues of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid, NANA, Neu5Ac), including 6-dipropylcarboxamides, have been found to be selective and potent inhibitors of influenza sialidases. Sialic acid analogues are, however, difficult to synthesize by traditional chemical methods and the enzyme N-acetylneuraminic acid lyase (NAL) has previously been used for the synthesis of a number of analogues. The ac...

N-Acetylneuraminate lyase [N-acetylneuraminic acid aldolase EC 4.1.3.3] from Escherichia coli was purified by protamine sulfate treatment, fractionation with ammonium sulfate, column chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA 44, and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified enzyme preparation was homogeneous on analytical polyacrylamide gel electrophores...
متن کاملBioengineering of bacterial polymer inclusions catalyzing the synthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid.
N-Acetylneuraminic acid is produced by alkaline epimerization of N-acetylglucosamine to N-acetylmannosamine and then subsequent condensation with pyruvate catalyzed by free N-acetylneuraminic acid aldolase. The high-alkaline conditions of this process result in the degradation of reactants and products, while the purification of free enzymes to be used for the synthesis reaction is a costly pro...
