摘要: 熊果苷是一种天然化合物存在于多种植物中,由葡萄糖和对苯二酚通过β-糖苷键连接而成,因对人体酪氨酸酶活性具有强烈抑制作用,在药妆工业中被用作强效皮肤增白剂。α-熊果苷是熊果苷的同分异构体,其糖苷键为α构型,美白效果比熊果苷高10倍以上。α-熊果苷的生产可通过酶促合成或微生物合成来实现。本文综述了α-熊果苷的生物合成方法,包括微生物合成和酶法合成,并简述了其固定化研究和纯化工艺。

Abstract: Arbutin was a natural compound found in a variety of plants,which was made up of glucose and hydroquinone linked by β-glycosidic bonds.Due to its strong inhibitory effect on human tyrosinase activity,it was widely used as a powerful skin lightening agent in the cosmeceutical industry.α-Arbutin was an isomer of arbutin,with 10 times higher whitening effect than that of arbutin.The production of α-arbutin could be achieved by enzymatic synthesis or microbial synthesis.In this paper,the biosynthesis methods of α-arbutin,including microbial synthesis and enzymatic synthesis,and its immobilization and purification process were reviewed.

Key words: α-arbutin, transglycosylase, tyrosinase inhibitor
