Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3757209A1] The present invention relates to a method for preparing (levan-based) fructooligosaccharides (FOS) using at least one (genetically modified) host organism. Through the production of a levansucrase and an endolevanase in the host organism, the enzymes can be used to convert the substrate sucrose into FOS. Additionally, the invention is directed to fructooligosaccharides obtainable by the method according to the invention; a specific expression vector, a specific genetically modified host organism, and a specific cell extract or culture supernatant, which are usable for the production of FOS; and a prebiotic or food supplement comprising or consisting of the FOS. Finally, the invention relates to a method for preparing levan using a levansucrase.
