9% (v/v), 50% of activity of wild-type enzyme remains. The stability of laccase in organic solvents is improved by introducing nonpolar (E188: A, I, L, and V) and positively charged (E188: K and R) residues in this region by site-directed mutagenesis. All variants show higher C50 values when compared to the wild type. Nonpolar amino acid substitutions are found to be the most efficient mutants for their remarkable increase in C50 value and a decrease in thermoinactivation rate in the presence of solvent. Replacing a negative residue with hydrophobic residues on the surface of a protein can enhance thermoresistance as well as solvent stability. The stability of the resulting enzymes is dependent on the length of the alkyl chain |
