A combination of weakly stabilizing mutations with a disulfide bridge in the alpha-helix region of Trichoderma reesei endo-1,4-beta-xylanase II increases the thermal stability through synergism.

Abstract excerpt

Thermal stability and other functional properties of Trichoderma reesei endo-1,4-beta-xylanase II (XYNII; family 11) were studied by designed mutations. Mutations at three positions were introduced to the XYNII mutant containing a disulfide bridge (S110C-N154C) in the alpha-helix. The disulfide bridge increased the half-life of XYNII from less than 1 min to 14 min at 65 degrees C. An additional mutation at the...
