Enhanced thermal and alkaline stability of L-lysine decarboxylase CadA by combining directed evolution and computation-guided virtual screening
Abstract As an important monomer for bio-based nylons PA5X, cadaverine is mainly produced by enzymatic decarboxylation of L-lysine. A key issue with this process is the instability of L-lysine decarboxylase (CadA) during the reaction due to the dissociation of CadA subunits with the accumulation of...
