Abstract excerpt
A series of chemically modified mutants (CMMs) of subtilisin B. lentus (SBL) were generated employing the combination of site-directed mutagenesis and chemical modification. This strategy entails the mutation of a selected active site residue to cysteine and its subsequent modification with a methanethiosulfonate reagent CH3SO2S-R, where R may be infinitely variable. The present study was undertaken to evaluate...
