Construction of a plasmid used for the expression of a sevenfold-mutant barley beta-amylase with increased thermostability in Escherichia coli and properties of the sevenfold-mutant beta-amylase.

Abstract excerpt

To increase the thermostability of beta-amylase, seven kinds of single-mutant plasmids were constructed with an expression vector of barley beta-amylase by mutagenesis. The remaining activity versus temperature curves were used to determine the temperatures (T50) at which 50% of the initial activity was lost during a 30-min heating period. These mutations increased the T50 values by amounts ranging from 0.8 to...
