Abstract excerpt
A new system for the bacterial expression of a variant of bovine alpha-lactalbumin has been developed. Eighteen mutant proteins containing single site substitutions in a cluster of predominantly aromatic residues adjacent to the cleft (aromatic cluster I) and in the hydrophobic box were expressed...
