Abstract excerpt
We have employed computational approaches-FireProt and FRESCO-to predict thermostable variants of the reductase component (C1 ) of (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate 3-hydroxylase. With the additional aid of experimental results, two C1 variants, A166L and A58P, were identified as thermotolerant enzymes, with thermostability improvements of 2.6-5.6 °C and increased catalytic efficiency of 2- to 3.5-fold. After heat...
