Conversion of subtilisin E to thiolsubtilisin by site-directed mutagenesis

This thesis presents a procedure of site specific mutagenesis of subtilisin E for reducing its proteolytic activity while retaining its ligase activity in peptide synthesis. A host-vector system was chosen to conduct the DNA manipulation and the gene expression. Subtilisin B gene (aprE) cloned on...
