Abstract excerpt
We have previously indicated that three single mutations (Leu144-->Ser, Asp150-->Glu, and Ile168-->Ala) in the site-directed mutagenesis of thermolysin increase the activity and two single (Ser53-->Asp and Leu155-->Ala) and one triple (Gly8-->Cys/Asn60-->Cys/Ser65-->Pro) mutations increase the stability. In the present study, aiming to generate highly active and stable thermolysin variants, we combined these...
