Abstract excerpt
Directed evolution was used to expand the substrate specificity and functionality of glycine oxidase by using a high-throughput screening assay based on the 4-aminoantipyrine peroxidase system, with a coefficient of variance below 4%. After screening the library, one mutant with the desired changes was found. The mutant was purified and characterized, showing important changes compared to the wild-type,...
