Nucleoside phosphorylases (NPs) are pivotal enzymes in the salvage pathway, catalyzing the reversible phosphorolysis of nucleosides to produce nucleobases and α-D-ribose 1-phosphate. Due to their efficiency in catalyzing nucleoside synthesis from purine or pyrimidine bases, these enzymes hold significant industrial importance in the production of nucleoside-based drugs. Given that the thermodynamic equilibrium for purine NPs (PNPs) is favorable for nucleoside synthesis-unlike pyrimidine NPs (PyNPs, UP, and TP)-multi-enzymatic systems combining PNPs with PyNPs, UPs, or TPs are commonly employed in the synthesis of nucleoside analogs. In this study, we report the first development of two engineered bifunctional fusion enzymes, created through the genetic fusion of purine nucleoside phosphorylase I (PNP I) and thymidine phosphorylase (TP) from
