Abstract:

Feed enzymes are one of the hotspots for research in the field of feed additives. Because of their superior qualities of no residue, no pollution, and no drug resistance, feed enzymes have been widely promoted and applied in the feed industry. As functional additives, feed enzymes have tremendously fostered feed development. Since the catalytic performance of feed enzyme is the core factor in determining their application effectiveness, one of the primary challenges faced by scientists engaged in the R&D of feed enzymes is how to improve their overall performance. Based on the application requirement for feed enzymes, this review focuses on their thermal stability, pH dependence, protease resistance, and catalytic activities. We summarize the application of computer-aided protein rational design technology in the R&D of feed enzymes, and introduce effective molecular design strategies for improving their catalytic performance. In addition, we present the progress in improving the performance of key feed enzymes by protein engineering technology, demonstrating the application prospect of enzyme molecular design technology based on the knowledge of protein structures. We also prospect the future development of protein engineering technology in feed enzymes, including (1) application-oriented designs for feed enzymes, (2) molecular design of multifunctional enzymes for efficient utilization of feed materials, (3) improvement of the thermostability as well as the catalytic performance of feed enzymes to meet the requirement of feed pelleting and under digestive and intestinal conditions, and (4) innovation and development of enzyme molecular design technology. Improving the catalytic performance of feed enzymes comprehensively from the perspective of enzyme proteins using synthetic biology tools will promote the development of the environmental adaptive molecular design of feed enzymes to a new stage.

Key words: feed enzymes, protein engineering, molecular designing, thermostability, pH dependence, protease resistance, catalytic activity
