Abstract excerpt
Thermostability is a critical limitation for industrial lipases. Rational design using stabilizing structural motifs like AXXXA offers a targeted engineering approach. This study aimed to enhance both thermostability and catalytic efficiency of Bacillus thermocatenulatus lipase (BTL2) through com...
