139 Summary A multi-enzyme process for the production of fructose from starch is presented. The process is based on the phosphorylative cleavage of starch yielding glucose-1-phosphate using phosphorylase a. This intermediate is then converted to fructose-6-phosphate via glucose-6- phosphate by phosphoglucomutase (E.C. 5.4.2.2) and phospho glucose isomerase (E.C. 5.3.1.9). The last step of the process requires the specific dephos phorylation of fructose-6-phosphate to produce fructose in high yields. However, at the outset of this work, no enzyme was known to specifically hydrolyze fructose-6-phosphate. Three attempts to obtain such a catalytic activity are presented. Fructokinase, an enzyme that phosphorylates fructose on the 6-position, was found to be unable to catalyze the reverse reaction at an acceptable rate. 5'-Nucleotidase, an enzyme specific for mono-nucleotides, was found to accept fructose-6-phosphate as a substrate. The activity was enhanced with the addition of pyridine as a cofactor. Imidazole was also found to enhance the reaction. A comparison with other compounds suggested that pyridine and imidazole presumably function by inducing a conformational change in the active site, thus enhancing the activity. A "fructose-6-phosphatase" system was developed by the combination of transaldolase (E.C. 2.2.1.2) and glycerate-3-phosphate phosphatase (E.C. 3.1.3.38). This system utilizes an unnatural reaction of transaldolase in which fructose-6-phosphate and glyceraldehyde are converted to fructose and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. Subsequent dephosphorylation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate in an exergonic

140 reaction provides the driving force necessary for the reaction to proceed towards the production of fructose. The multi-enzyme system using transaldolase and glycerate-3- phosphate phosphatase was run for 170 hours in a semi-continuous mode. reaction. Glyceraldehyde functioned as a required cofactor for the The process converted 61% of the starch to fructose.

141 Zusammenfassung Ein Reakfionsprozess bestehend aus funf verschiedenen Enzyme von tierischen, pflanzlichen und bakteriellen Quellen fur die Produktion von Fruktose aus St6rke wird vorgelegt. Starke wird dabei mit dem Enzym Phosphorylase a (E.C. 2.4.1.1) in Anwesenheit von Phosphat zu Glukose-1-phosphat gespalten. Glukose-1-Phosphat wird mittels den Enzymen Phosphoglucomutase (E.C. 5.4.2.2) und Phosphoglukose- Isomerase (E.C. 5.3.1.9) zu Glukose-6-Phosphat und anschliessend zu Fruktose-6-Phosphat umgewandelt. Der letzte Schritt des Prozesses bendtigt eine spezifische Abspaltung der Phosphatgruppe von Fruktose-6-Phosphat. Am Anfang dieser Arbeit war ein solches Enzym unbekannt. Diese Arbeit beinhaltet drei verschiedene Versuche, um eine solche katalytische Aktivitdt zu erhalten. Das Enzym Fruktokinase, das Fruktose an der C-6 Stelle phosphoryliert, wurde nur mit geringem Erfolg fur die Abspaltung dieser Phosphatgruppe benutzt. Ein anderes Enzym, 5'-Nucleotidase, das 5'- Mononukleotide spezifisch dephosphoryliert, wurde fur unsere Zwecke untersucht. 5-Nucleotidase war in der Lage Fruktose-6-phosphat als ein Substrat zu akzeptieren. Diese Aktivitdt wurde in der Anwesenheit von Pyridin weiter verstarkt. Ein Vergleich mit anderen gewdhlten organischen Substanzen hat ergeben, dass Pyridin und Imidazol vermutiich als Kofaktoren, die eine konformationelle Aenderung der aktiven Stelle des Enzyms hervorrufen, wlrken und so die Enzymaktivitdt erhdhen. Ein Fruktose-6-phosphatase-System" wurde anschliessend mittels der Enzyme Transaldolase (E.C. 2.2.1.2) und Glycerat-3-phosphat- Phosphatase (E.C. 3.1.3.38) entwickelt. Dieses System basiert auf der Fahigkeit von Transaldolase, Fruktose-6-Phosphat in der Anwesenheit

142 von Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphat zu Fruktose und Glyceraldehyde-3- Phosphat umzuwandeln. Eine exergonische Abspaltung der Phosphat gruppe von Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphat ist die treibende Kraft fur die Produktion von Fruktose. Dieser "Multi-Enzym-Prozess" konnte wdhrend 170 Stunden in einem semi-kontinuierlichen Reaktorprozess benutzt werden, um 61% der eingesetzten Starke zu Fruktose umzuwandeln.
