Abstract excerpt
A new strategy for accurate and reversible modulation of protein activity via simple conjugation of the sulfhydryl modifier and polymer with the introduced Cys residue in protein was developed in this study. With Escherichia coli inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) as a model protein, we used site-directed mutagenesis to generate a mutant PPase (PPC) with a substituted Cys residue at the specific Lys-148 site,...
