Converting human carbonic anhydrase II into a benzoate ester hydrolase through rational redesign.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 1 May 2008

Höst Gunnar E, Jonsson Bengt-Harald

Abstract excerpt

Enzymes capable of benzoate ester hydrolysis have several potential medical and industrial applications. A variant of human carbonic anhydrase II (HCAII) was constructed, by rational design, that is capable of hydrolysing para-nitrophenyl benzoate (pNPBenzo) with an efficiency comparable to some naturally occurring esterases. The design was based on a previously developed strategy [G. Höst, L.G. Mårtensson, B.H....
