Abstract excerpt
The product specificity of cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) from alkalophilic Bacillus sp. #1011 is improved to near-uniformity by mutation of histidine-233 to asparagine. Asparagine 233-replaced CGTase (H233N-CGTase) no longer produces alpha-cyclodextrin, while the wild-type CGTase from the same bacterium produces a mixture of predominantly alpha-, beta-, and gamma-cyclodextrins, catalyzing the...
