Abstract excerpt
Transglutaminase (TGase), a transferase, is widely adopted in the food industry and other biological fields due to its unique characteristics of modifying proteins by intra- or intermolecular cross-linking. However, obtaining a mutant TGase that is highly thermostable and active would significantly aid in food processing. Therefore, this study sought to improve the thermostability of TGase by introducing an...
