Improvement of the catalytic activity and thermostability of a hyperthermostable endoglucanase by optimizing N-glycosylation sites

Abstract Background Endoglucanase has been extensively employed in industrial processes as a key biocatalyst for lignocellulosic biomass degradation. Thermostable endoglucanases with high catalytic activity at elevated temperatures are preferred in industrial use. To improve the activity and thermos...
