Abstract excerpt
Random mutagenesis was performed on the α-l-arabinofuranosidase of Thermobacillus xylanilyticus in order to enhance its ability to perform transarabinofuranosylation using natural xylo-oligosaccharides as acceptors. To achieve this goal, a two-step, high-throughput digital imaging protocol involving a colorimetric substrate was used to screen a library of 30,000 mutants. In the first step this screen selected for...
