Abstract excerpt
To improve the activity and enantioselectivity of hyperthermophilic archaeon Aeropyrum pernix K1 esterase (APE1547) and its mutants, they were purified by acetone-treated method. It was found that the acetone treatment not only caused APE1547 and its mutants to display higher activity and enantioselectivity but also saved more than 90% of time spent in purifying them by Ni-chelating column. In hydrolysis of...
