Application

Application Comment Organism
pharmacology miglitol (N-hydroxyethyl-1-deoxynojirimycin), a type of hypoglycemic drug works by competitively inhibiting alpha-glucosidase activity to control postprandial blood glucose, can be used in the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus. 6-(N-hydroxyethyl)-amino-6-deoxy-alpha-L-sorbofuranose, is a key intermediate for the synthesis of miglitol, is produced from N-2-hydroxyethyl glucamine (NHEG) by biotransformation with resting cells of Gluconobacter oxydans. Balanced co-expression of both the mSLDH and the PQQ synthases is effective for the industrial production of 6-(N-hydroxyethyl)-amino-6-deoxy-L-sorbofuranose Gluconobacter oxydans
