Abstract excerpt
A lysate-based thermostability and activity profile is described for chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) expressed in trifluoroleucine, T (CAT T). CAT and 13 single-isoleucine CAT mutants were expressed in medium supplemented with T and assayed for thermostability on cell lysates. Although fluorinated mutants, L82I T and L208I T, showed losses in thermostability, the L158I T fluorinated mutant demonstrated an...
