Abstract

The present invention relates an enzymatic preparation method for an oxidized coenzyme II using a one pot method. Three substrates: nicotinamide nucleotide (NR), adenosine triphosphate disodium salt (ATP-Na2), and sodium hexametaphosphate are used as raw materials, to make them react in the existence of four enzymes: nicotinamide nucleoside kinase (NRK), inorganic pyrophosphatase, NAD kinase, and poly-pyrophosphokinase, in a buffer solution with pH being 4.0 to 8.5, and at a temperature of 10°C to 40°C, so as to obtain the oxidized coenzyme II. The present invention solves the technical problem that nicotinamide nucleotide has a high cost and is difficult to be obtained, the reaction time is long, a process cost is high, and a process condition is not suitable for industrial scale-up in a current enzymatic preparation method; and the oxidized coenzyme II can be obtained with high efficiency and a low cost in an industrialized scale-up production manner.
