The Cyclodextrin Glycosyltransferase of Paenibacillus pabuli US132 Strain: Molecular Characterization and Overproduction of the Recombinant Enzyme

The gene encoding the cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) of Paenibacillus pabuli US132, previously described as efficient antistaling agent and good candidate for cyclodextrins production, was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Escherichia coli. Sequence analysis showed that the mature enzym...
