Abstract

Provided are a sucrose synthetase and the use thereof. Compared with SEQ ID NO: 11, an amino acid sequence of the sucrose synthetase contains differences in amino acid residues selected from one or more of the following residue positions: an amino acid at position 36 being V, an amino acid at position 43 being E, an amino acid at position 179 being A, an amino acid at position 395 being R, an amino acid at position 447 being P, an amino acid at position 455 being L, and an amino acid at position 654 being R; and the sucrose synthetase has an activity not lower than that of a sucrose synthetase having an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 11. By means of catalyzing the synthesis of rebaudioside A, rebaudioside D or rebaudioside M by using a glucosyltransferase and the sucrose synthetase in a combined manner, a cascade reaction is achieved, thereby providing a variety of possibilities for the selection of raw materials.
