Abstract excerpt
The α-L-Rhamnosidase is an important enzyme with applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries because it can release terminal L-rhamnose residues from various natural products. In this study, the B-factor-saturation mutagenesis strategy was used to increase the thermostability of α-L-rhamnosidase from Aspergillus terreus. The D594Q and G827K/D594Q mutant enzymes were obtained by screening a series of...
