Provided herein are penicillin expandase mutants, DNA coding the mutants, reagent kit containing the mutants and the application. The penicillin expandase mutants using SEQ ID NO.: 2 in the Sequence Listing as a reference sequence, have at least one amino acid mutation at residue positions corresponding to threonine at position 42 and glutamine at position 126, wherein, amino acid at position 42 is substituted by any other natural amino acid except threonine, amino acid at position 126 is substituted by any other natural amino acid except glutamine. The penicillin expandase mutants of present invention have increased its thermostability and catalytic activity; it is more suitable for commercial and industrial applications.

This invention provides deacetoxycephalosporin C hydroxylase mutants, their encoding DNA sequences, the methods to utilize them and their application. The deacetoxycephalosporin C hydroxylase mutants are characterized by at least one amino acid mutation at residue position selected from Glycine at position 29, Alanine at position 40, Glycine at position 41, Arginine at position 182 and Threonine at position 272, based on the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.:2 as reference sequence, and wherein the deacetoxycephalosporin C hydroxylase mutant has at least 10% increase in activity and at least 150% increase in thermostability compared to wild-type deacetoxycephalosporin C hydroxylase. The deacetoxycephalosporin C hydroxylase mutants in this invention have increased activity and thermostability, allowing them to be more commercially and industrially viable.
