Abstract excerpt
L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase (ADC) can recognize L-aspartic acid specifically and catalyze the decarboxylation of L-aspartic acid to β-alanine. In this study, a novel L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase (BaADC) with high specific activity from Bacillus aryabhattai Gel-09 was heterologously expressed and characterized. It exhibited optimal enzyme activity at pH 5.5 and 75 °C, and its specific activity was 33.9 U/mg. To...
