HYDANTOINASE-VARIANTEN MIT VERBESSERTEN EIGENSCHAFTEN UND IHRE ANWENDUNG ZUR PRODUKTION VON AMINOSÄUREN

摘要

Hydantoinase enzymes are mutants of a previously isolated hydantoinase having the amino acid SEQ. ID. NO. 2. The mutants include amino acids substitutions at positions (95, 154, 180, 251 and/or 255) of the wild type hyndantoinase (SEQ. ID. NO. 2). The mutant hydantoinases, like the parent hydantoinase, are used in the production of optically pure amino acids.
