The original online version of this article (Kitadokoro, K., Matsui, S., Osokoshi, R., Nakata, K. and Kamitani, S. (2018) Expression, Purification and Crystallization of Thermostable Mutant of Cutinase Est1 from Therm...
A double mutantEst1, which is a plastic degrading cutinase-type esterase in Thermobifida alba, has been over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein was purified by a two-step protocol involving immobil...
Cutinases are hydrolytic enzymes used by phytopathogenic fungi to gain entry into plants by breaking down the cuticular barrier of higher plants. Cutinase displayed hydrolytic activity not only towards cutin, the main...
Thermostability of two homologous cutinases, Cut1 and Cut2 from Thermobifida fusca NRRL B-8184 was inves-tigated at combination of different pH and temperature in the range of pH 6 - 9 and temperature 45℃ - 80℃, re-...
The development of medium for the production of cutinase from Pseudomonas cepacia NRRL B 2320 was carried out using Plackett-Burman experimental design followed by central composite design. The medium components were ...
