Abstract excerpt
Aiming to improve thermostability of the mesophilic xylanase A from Bacillus subtilis (XynA), five single mutants (S22E, S27E, N32D, N54E and N181R) were used to construct a random combinatorial library, and screening of this library for thermostable XynA variants identified a double mutant (S22E/N32D). All 6 mutants were expressed in Escherichia coli (BL21) and purified. Xylanase activity showed all mutants have...
