Abstract excerpt
Arginine deiminase (ADI) has garnered significant interest because of its ability to objectively eradicate cancer cells and produce L-citrulline. To meet the production demands, this study focused on enhancing the enzyme activity and thermal stability of ADI. In this study, 24 ADI mutants were obtained through computer aid site-specific mutation in the ADI of Enterobacter faecalis. Notably, the specific enzyme...
