Abstract excerpt
Native pyranose 2-oxidase (P2Ox) was purified from Peniophora sp. and characterized. To improve its catalytic efficiencies and stabilities by protein engineering, we cloned and expressed the P2Ox gene in Escherichia coli and received active, fully flavinylated recombinant P2OxA. Selenomethionine-labeled P2OxA was used for X-ray analysis and the resulting crystal structure enabled the rational design using variant...
