Multiple mutants of a psychrophilic α-amylase 1 Stepwise adaptations to low temperature as revealed by multiple mutants of a psychrophilic α-amylase from an Antarctic bacterium*
Background: Cold-adapted enzymes remain catalytically active at low temperatures. Results: Mutants of a cold-adapted alpha-amylase stabilized by engineered weak interactions and a disulfide bond have lost the kinetic optimization to low temperatures. Conclusion: The disappearance of stabilizing interactions in psychrophilic enzymes increases the dynamics of active site residues at low temperatu...

Background: Considering natural thermal stability, Geobacillus stearothermophilus amylase and Cel5E from Clostridium thermocellum are good candidates for industrial applications. To be compatible with the industrial applications, this enzyme should be stable in the high temperatures, so any improvement in their thermal stability is valuable.Objectives: Us...
متن کاملInfluence of a Novel Magnetic Recoverable Support on Kinetic, Stability and Activity of Beta-amylase Enzyme
In this paper, covalent immobilization of beta amylase enzyme on the surface of modified magnetic nano particles (ZnFe2O4@SiO2-NH2) is reported. For doing so, at first, the magnetic nanoparticles of ZnFe2O4 were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method and then tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and 3-aminopropyltriethoxy sil...
