Abstract excerpt
Thermal stability of wild type Humicola lanuginosa lipase (wt HLL) and its two mutants, W89L and the single Trp mutant W89m (W117F, W221H, and W260H), were compared. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed unfolding of HLL at T(d)=74.4 degrees C whereas for W89L and W89m this endotherm was decreased to 68.6 and 62 degrees C, respectively, demonstrating significant contribution of the above Trp residues to the...
