Strategic single point mutation yields a solvent- and salt-stable transaminase from Virgibacillus sp. in soluble form
Abstract A new transaminase (VbTA) was identified from the genome of the halotolerant marine bacterium Virgibacillus 21D. Following heterologous expression in Escherichia coli, it was located entirely in the insoluble fraction. After a single mutation, identified via sequence homology analyses, the...
