Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for producing a 1,2-amino alcohol compound by utilizing whole-cell transformation, and belongs to the technical field of gene engineering and microorganism engineering. According to the present invention, engineered Escherichia coli co-expresses epoxide hydrolase, alcohol dehydrogenase, ω-transaminase and glutamate dehydrogenase, is capable of realizing whole-cell catalysis of an epoxide in one step to synthesize a 1,2-amino alcohol compound, and meanwhile, can realize regeneration of coenzyme NADP+ and an amino doner L-Glu; alcohol dehydrogenase expressed by the engineered Escherichia coli is RBS optimized alcohol dehydrogenase, and such RBS optimization can control the expression quantity of alcohol dehydrogenase, so that the catalysis rate of alcohol dehydrogenase and transaminase can achieve an optimum ratio, to eliminate influence caused by a rate-limiting step in a catalyzing course.
