Abstract excerpt
The inhibitory effect of β-CD on pullulanase which hydrolyzes α-1,6 glycosidic bond in starch to release more available linear substrates, limited substrate utilization thus influencing the yield of β-CD. Here, an aspartic acid residue (D465) which interacted with cyclodextrin ligand by hydrogen bond, was mutated to explore its contribution to bind inhibitors and obtain mutants with lower affinity to β-CD. Enzyme...
