Alpha-amylase from Bacillus licheniformis mutants near to the catalytic site: effects on hydrolytic and transglycosylation activity.

Protein engineering - 1 Jul 2003

Abstract excerpt

The alpha-amylase from Bacillus licheniformis is the most widely used enzyme in the starch industry owing to its hyperthermostability, converting starch to medium-sized oligosaccharides. Based on sequence alignment of homologous amylases, we found a semi-conserved sequence pattern near the active site between transglycosidic and hydrolytic amylases, which suggested that hydrophobicity may play a role in modifying...
