A High-Specific-Activity L-aspartate-α-Decarboxylase from Bacillus aryabhattai Gel-09 and Site-Directed Mutation to Improve Its Substrate Tolerance
L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase (ADC) can recognize L-aspartic acid specifically and catalyze the decarboxylation of L-aspartic acid to β-alanine. In this study, a novel L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase (BaADC) with high ...
