Engineering Bacillus pumilus alkaline serine protease to increase its low-temperature proteolytic activity by directed evolution
Abstract Background Mesophilic alkaline serine proteases from various bacteria have been commercially applied in a range of industries owing to their high catalytic efficiency and wide substrate specificity. However, these proteases have an optimal catalytic temperature of approximately 50 °C, and t...
