Abstract excerpt
In order to improve some characteristics of a β-1,3-1,4-glucanase from Bacillus subtilis MA139, directed evolution was conducted in this study. After error-prone PCR, the β-1,3-1,4-glucanase gene, glu-opt, was cloned into the vector pBGP1 and transformed into Pichia pastoris X-33 to construct a mutant library. Three variants named as 7-32, 7-87, and 7-115 were screened from 8000 colonies. Amino-acid sequence...
