Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The development of enzyme-mediated glycosynthesis using glycoside hydrolases is still an inexact science, because the underlying molecular determinants of transglycosylation are not well understood. In the framework of this challenge, this study focused on the family GH51 α-l-arabinofuranosidase from Thermobacillus xylanilyticus, with the aim to understand why the mutation of position 344 provokes a...
