Abstract excerpt
Gentiobiose (GEN2) is a low-calorie disaccharide consisting of two glucose units linked via a β-1,6-glycosidic bond. Currently, it is predominantly synthesized by β-glucosidase using glucose as the substrate. However, the low catalytic efficiency of β-glucosidase in gentiobiose synthesis has become a major bottleneck restricting its industrial application. In this study, a rational design strategy was employed to...
