Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of artificial disulfide bridges on the thermostability and catalytic efficiency of chitosanase EAG1. RESULTS: Five artificial disulfide bridges were designed based on the structural information derived from the three-dimensional (3-D) model of chitosanase EAG1. Two beneficial mutants (G113C/D116C, A207C-L286C) were located in the flexible surface loop region, whereas the...
