Abstract excerpt
l-Asparaginases catalyze the hydrolysis of l-asparagine to l-aspartic acid and ammonia. These enzymes have potential applications in therapeutics and food industry. Tk1656, a highly active and thermostable l-asparaginase from Thermococcus kodakarensis, has been proved effective in selective killing of acute lymphocytic leukemia cells and in reducing acrylamide formation in baked and fried foods. However, it...
