In silico rational design and systems engineering of disulfide bridges in the catalytic domain of an alkaline α-amylase from Alkalimonas amylolytica to improve thermostability

High thermostability is required for alkaline α-amylases to maintain high catalytic activity under the harsh conditions used in textile production. In this study, we attempted to improve the thermostability of an alkaline α-amylase from Alkalimonas amylolytica through in silico rational design and s...
