Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Family 11 alkaline xylanases have great potential economic applications in the pulp and paper industry. In this study, we would improve the alkalophilicity of family 11 alkaline xylanase Xyn11A-LC from Bacillus sp. SN5, for the better application in this field. RESULTS: A random mutation library of Xyn11A-LC with about 10,000 clones was constructed by error-prone PCR. One mutant, M52-C10 (V116A and...
